Hello, I have noticed for quite some time the complaints about new users becoming acclimated to the game and new users not having much incentive to continue the learning curve required to succeed, and I began thinking about an idea that could help alleviate some of these problems.
If we had more tournaments in each country that pitted more similar strength teams against each other, along with the huge national tournament, I think you could see an increase in users because of the allure of winning something more easily than the national tournament. If you had, for instance, a tournament comprising of only DIV and DV teams, a DIII tournament, and DII/I tournament, people would join the game and stay because they have a chance to compete for something "big" right off the bat. You could obviously differ this by each country based on users, etc. but for a country like the US I think a structure similar to this would be great to add and keep new users.
Thoughts?
