The leaderboard was changed because people like you and your friends would constantly abuse a glitch to reset your rating deviation so that you could easily get points then camp at #1, let's just put that out there...
This is literally what you are saying right now:
"The current leaderboard is bad because you gain points equal to the ratio of the sparrer you beat, which means that it encourages players to spar actively. It makes more sense to have a wins leaderboard."
I don't think you realize how contradictory that sounds. Basically, you're just lobbying for an all-times spar wins leaderboard because you want something you can sit on without ever having to work for. To say that flat out wins is a better formula than weighting wins based on the ratio of the opponent you beat = obvious conflict in interest.

1. I will forever deny this. You and I both know that I was the top iDevice sparrer in the whole game at the time and with this, I could easily climb the old leaderboard without abusing it. I just knew how to abuse it, told Tae to show him how dumb the leaderboard was, and then he became obsessed with it and went crazy.
2. Your awful leaderboard and a wins leaderboard are not the same thing. You are not encouraging people to spar actively. The other day your enemy Demrow had a status saying that he refuses to climb this ladder because of how dumb the system is. Is this encouraging sparring or scaring people away?
If you checked your awful leaderboard last week, you would have seen that I was #1 and putting up the most impressive pace on it so far (100k+ points if I kept it up). But I was throwing away a large portion of my life just to do this, and don't want to abandon my life to spar all day long. With your awful leaderboard, the only people encouraged to spar actively are those who are looking to throw away a significant portion of their life for three straight months to sit on the top. Forget about taking a vacation during the summer guys, Thallen wants us to spar every single day and earn that top spot. With a wins per day/week leaderboard, people would ACTUALLY spar actively to try to get to the top in these short periods of time, and take breaks whenever they wanted to. With your awful leaderboard, there is no such thing as a week of rest, we must put our full effort into sparring at all times or we will lose our chances. Don't know why you are so ignorant to anything that isn't your own idea. This is way better than your awful leaderboard when it comes to accomplishing the goal of getting more people to spar actively. We would have more people sparring every day to try to reach the top, instead of everyone just watching Sarah spar.
