Okay first of all I know a lot of you will be hating me for supporting this idea but I just want to explain why I like it.So in v2 when it first came out it didn't have the bounty feature and it was quite hard to get points back then. Having over 4000 points showed how good of a player you were and I really liked it. I remember that some people got 10k points legit which was a really hard achievement. I personally think it will make the game a bit more competitive and that's why I think it should be removed. You will also tell me that you need points for sp0nsoring and stuff. Yeah I know! That's why it will also make sponsoring a bit harder because you have to get your points by playing games and games to sponsor instead of just going in one game and get 20k points from people who bountied. I hope this idea will be at least discussed so something can happen :/

It's fun playing MCSG with friends and giving a bounty of 2k on one person and them trying to win the points. Don't understand why MCSG has to be competitive. But I see where you're coming from.

I believe the bountying has gone out of control, i dunno anything about the bounty glitch but i believe it was the source of all these crazy points... I believe there should be a cap or ratio as to how many points you can bounty. My 'opinion' would be a 5000 bounty limit or half your points. I don't believe it shouldn't completely removed because MCSG wouldn't be the same without it.

I say keep bountying in. The way I determine who is good is not points, but it is based on how many wins they have. Like I think you, ExKing are an amazing player not because you may have a lot of points, but because you have a ton of wins. I like the concept of bountying, but you do make a valid point. I just think bountying is not really worth taking out.

I like having bounty, simply because its fun.

Hm. I agree and disagree. The main goal of MCSG isn't to be super competitive, it's to have fun. This is often achieved by competition, but in the end fun should be the highest priority.

Who said being competitive isn't fun?

I think competitiveness would go ahead of fun in this suggestion, which is the wrong priority order in my opinion.

You can't use that argument against me, I use it myself :p
Ahhh, no wonder you are "The Best Male Poster"
