*scottishThis "No" campaign, and "Yes" campaign, remind me a lot of Switzerland's independence vote.

With every day that goes by, it becomes harder and further for new players to get to the top of the leaderboards. This is something that will never change. If we do this 1 reset, give it a year or so and people will want another reset and be complaining about the same things.I don't believe the leaderboards should be reset w/ a legacy one in plays. What Mr_Gears said was basically what I was going to say. When I joined in about September 2012 I didn't imagine I'd get to where I was. I slowly made my way into the top 100 Au players, 50 wins at the time, joined what was the best Au clan and eventually managed to become #1 in Au and about 10th in the world or so some time last year. I didn't think I'd ever reach something like that, but after a lot of hard work and a long time spent doing it I managed to succeed. Eventually, however, I lost interest and went very inactive; people overtook me and I fell further and further behind. Players can look at the current top 10 or so and think they can never compete, but with enough time the 'best players' will lose interest, and with enough time those new players can become the new top 10. If new players intend to rise up on the leaderboards they should have to put in as much time and dedication as those before them - if they're truly up for it and are good enough they'll make it. If anything this seems like an excuse for players that aren't very good to get some kind of glory for themselves. After the introduction of clans, MCSG got increasingly competetive - as a result, a lot more drama ensued. Clans have been blacklisted, players have been blacklisted, players have been permanently banned. I don't think an 'up' in the level of competetiveness is necessary, nor beneficial. The legacy leaderboards feel like a way for people who have worked hard to feel less disappointed - they'll barely mean anything to anyone within a few months of new leaderboards. Finally, what of the people that have bought a stats reset? I'm aware many have done this - do their wins prior to their reset go to the legacy leaderboards? What of the money then - do they get some refund each? A reward such as donor? What if they already have Plat, for example? I just see a lot of complications and unfairness with a stat reset, even with 'Legacy Leaderboards'.
