It's been haunting me since the start of this Holiday Event 2018 . The way it's been copied and pasted from many other Events , in terms of the points system , which we can clearly see and understand , again this year , being made for grinders and other named techniques . Many suggestions have been made in past years from lots of people and here is what i think could be a real different way , for all, to enjoy.
Here is a summary of my view , my way of making these Events fair to all .
- Collectables : There would be a maximum of them to collect that would give points toward the main LB .I have 298 right now , without even looking for them and we are just about halfway into the Event .So , let's say when you reach 500 of them , they are not counting for the Event no more . You can still collect them and they will show in you stats , but the points will not add to the LB. They would be all random, like they are now . From 1@100 points and can be of colors or not , doesn't matter . So, you want to run and get them all right away !? Go ahead , but after, you're done . Another wants to get them , like i do , while simply hunting !? Great ,they are not disadvantaged at all .
- Comparing now : There is not limit for them , so ,strictly running to collect them makes it unfair to all . Not all want to do that and have the time if they would like to do that .
- Missions : They would still give, whatever number of points . Missions can easily be done alone or if help is needed , with some friends .So no big thing to change here .
- Comparing now: Nothing to compare here really .
- Competitions :How well you do in them or having just a score for them would be different and simple . I would not give , the original 20k for it .I would give 200@10 points for the top 200 places and 5 points for any other entry below that .
You following ? 200 = 1st , 190 = 2nd and so on and 5 points to 21 + positions .
- Comparing now : You have the 20k for any entry and that's all .You managed to beat everyone and get first place , you have same points has the guy who finished last !
Also, two of the comps so far asked for precision shooting . The distance / Roo / skull one and the Neck / bow / BT one . If i understand correctly, you are asking me to be precise in those two comps , knowing that the game has hitboxes issues !!??
I must be very stupid not to get that logic !
I would not give points for animals killed . So no grinding of birds / Bears / whatever species .
The LB would be changing quite often , making it exciting to watch . Anybody would have a chance at top spot .
This year again , after 2-3 days of a 22 days Event , we already knew who was going to win .Really ?!
Imo, these are simple adjustments to make .
Last time i looked at the poll i made for the satisfaction of this Holiday Event 2018 , 74% had given a thumbs down for it !
Pretty high if you ask me !
Many things can , could be change in my view of a good Event . Not all numbers are in concrete .

DH... like with the regular comps , luck is a good part of the result . Sure , one that hunts 5-6 real hours compared to the one guy that has limited time , like 1 hr real time , has more chances in the end . But , like so many times , some get a nice score right from the start . So , yes, longer means more chances , but doesnt mean a sure victory .
