I don't know if there is an official policy on it, but my current thought is not to award it to #2 unless we don't see much change month to month. But, I'm also thinking that we'll be seeing people drop off of the leaderboard after they get the badge. I'll have to wait and see how it actually goes.I get that reference!Originally Posted by futiles
Also, if someone wins the monthly leaderboard, but already has the badge, does it just not get awarded that month? I remember the badge and the challenge, but, not really how they worked specifically.

If you have the badge then you should probably not join the leaderboard to give other people who don't have it on the site a fair go at it.I don't know if there is an official policy on it, but my current thought is not to award it to #2 unless we don't see much change month to month.

My thought is that the competition is specifically to earn the badge. Personally, I feel that there are plenty of other leaderboards around for people who just want to outdo everybody else (granted, several of those are going to be topped by Stallion ), so my preferred method would be for people to drop off of the leaderboard voluntarily once they get the badge and give others the chance. I can guarantee that not everyone will join as some don't care or aren't active, so it won't just be a "gimme" badge in that regard.I think both methods are valid, and there really isn't a "right" answer, but, as long as whichever way y'all decide is clearly expressed, that is the way it is (and should be).Originally Posted by futiles
If you allow people who already have the badge to compete, there will be people who intentionally try to block others from getting it. But, that is competition. So, if you see the same people winning every few months, it will not help drive enthusiasm for the challenge or the badge, and wouldn't drive engagement nor attraction to the site.
On the other side, if you basically remove people who have the badge from the leaderboard, or otherwise ignore holders of the badge and go to someone who doesn't, it basically becomes a "wait your turn" badge, and basically, eventually, everyone gets it. But, it could lead to continued interest and engagement.
Insert favorite shrug gif...
My only recommendation is pick a method, clearly define that method, and stick to it. Someone is going to hate the method you pick, and is going to vocally complain. But, screw em, you posted how it works.

According to the other site, RedmptionDenied is still #1 and Stallion is 19th.Man, Stallion isn't even top 30 gamerscore anymore. I think RedmptionDenied might still be #1, he was last time I checked.Originally Posted by futiles

19th by Gamerscore, or by their internal score? I believe that is by their own imaginary number...According to the other site, RedmptionDenied is still #1 and Stallion is 19th.Originally Posted by Dvader83

I like this idea. Call it "Challenge accepted" or "Badge of Honor" or something similar.Back on topic, I would vote for earning the badge also earns you an exit from the leaderboard. Congratulations, now go away.Originally Posted by Hotdogmcgee
Maybe make a second leaderboard only open to those that have won it and let them fight it out for the monthly bragging rights amongst themselves.

I may never get it, either. Such is life. But you are guaranteed to never get it if you never try.I look forward to never earning this as I'm not in the "baby game" market.Originally Posted by Dacoto
