I can't even warp my brain around some of these posts because they make zero sense to me, but I'm going to try my best.

If I'm reading correctly, the main arguing point here is this: "I don't like the current leaderboard because some people get a ton of points and then I can't catch up to them halfway into the season."
Okay, and the solution that I'm seeing most often: "We should change the leaderboard from points to wins."

?????????????????????????????

So basically, the exact same thing as the current leaderboard, except we no longer take into account the skill level of your opponent, but instead give you one point per every player you beat?

UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...
So your genius fix to the leaderboard is changing this:

HTML Code:

pointsWon = (opponentsRatio * 10)

To this:

HTML Code:

pointsWon = 1

So basically, remove any measure of skill from the leaderboard entirely, and just turn it into a "how many people I killed in spar leaderboard"? Can anyone explain to me what problem(s) this allegedly fixes? Are you guys trolling?
