Community Poll: Leaderboards Reset with Newest Update?

[ElijahVsTheWorld]

This is a tricky one but here's my reasoning...

First off I got a stats reset the DAY before this thread was posted. Honestly... 14 hours. If they allow you to get the money from the stats reset refunded back to you, I would understand.

Next off, the legacy leaderboards don't mean anything to people in between #500-#1000 since they won't be recognized on the legacy leaderboards. Like if you're top 500, although you're not THAT high, you could have a 1/2 ratio and like be an amazing player. With some more work you can be top 100... but if this stats reset happens all of that will be pointless and they won't be recognized on it. Not to mention, the amount of boosters and GIANT teams (whether hacking or not) to come. This could ruin ratios, and there will be so many more since people now won't have to pay to boost. Just get a friend with hacks and play for 3 hours. It's honestly really crazy to me. I agree about the monthly/weekly/daily leaderboards. AWESOME idea. However, that shouldn't be resting on the fact that there has to be a stats reset. Not to mention, I think MCSG's devs should focus on taking away hacked clients like NoKB and killaura (as they did with regen hacks) before they focus on doing this, which will spring more hackers. That's my take though. Also, you can't make the stats reset just free since I paid for it 2 DAYS AGO!

(My Honest Opinion) People just want their stats reset becuase their "Not That Experienced" at the game and i find this unfair to the people such as myself who over the last year(s) have been improving their skill level and rising up the ranks and all for what ?
Another thing to add ; Some of the most liked people amongst the community such as Gravey4rd for example , he said he'll quit , Many others included. The community is falling apart as it is and its only going to get worse, its sad to think this but its probably true
So with that said... VOTE NO!

Fk no so many raging players and the amount of alr accounts clan players would use would be hard 2 keep track of

This. I also feel that this will cause more bad than good, I would much prefer to see weekly and monthly leaderboards for those who want this. I myself am surprisingly not too bothered about my stats but I would miss the recognition

Everyone is saying mcsg will lose players because of this, but I know a lot of people who don't play mcsg, just because it's almost impossible to become #1 at this point. A leader boards reset will attract a lot of new people.

I don't think MCSG even wants you after saying this, let alone care about your opinion.

So no one cares about my opinion because I recommend people to move away if MCSG decide to screw many players over after years of hard work? I'm pretty sure my opinion counts just as much as yours. I believe if they do this now, what's to stop them doing it in another two years. Basically, it's pointless to try and even gain a rank.

I Personally, Don't Want To See a Stat Reset, I Don't Play MCSG Nearly as Much as I Used To, and I Have Decent Stats, However, I Wouldn't Have The Time To Work on My Stats Again! Also, The Meaning of a Statistic is ALL The Data of Everything You Have Done. Which Means Doing a Stat Reset Would Take Away The Meaning...

-_- I will quit mcsg if they reset the stats. But, they wont. I suggest they just make a monthly weekly and daily leaderboard so regardless of how many wins you have it will still be competitive and people would try to get be #1 that month or week or even day. That is how mcsg should make players more active.

If I wanted a stat reset I would've purchased one.

Hello Tributes,

There are some exciting things on the horizon for MCGamer, such as a very big update that is planned to be released quite soon. While we won't spoil the surprise of what's in store, we will freely admit that this update will bring quite a few suggestions and features that you all have been clamoring for.

But now we find ourselves in a position that we must ask you, the community, for your input.

Poll Information

Poll Question:

"Assuming your old statistics would be saved on a separate "Legacy Leaderboards" page, would you like the leaderboards to be reset for a fresh start?"​

Topic Summary:
Our current MCSG leaderboards and the information they contain is nearly 2 years old. The new update brings with it the chance to augment and improve our current leaderboards system. With the update, we would be able to increase the number of statistics we could track per person, as well as build the necessary backbone to track some more complicated stats as well (daily leaderboards, anyone?). However, we could only track those new things if everyone's stats are reset, allowing us to work with a clean slate for everyone.

As such, the release of the network update would be the perfect time to "start again fresh" with a global reset of the MCSG, QQ, and SGC leaderboards. In addition, we would offer "Legacy Leaderboards" for historical reference (see below).
But we also acknowledge that some people may wish to continue using the statistics they have been building up for the last 2+ years. Do note that if we continued to use the old statistics, we would not be able to add in new things to track.

Do note that all statistics up to that point would be saved on a separate leaderboards, called the, "Legacy Leaderboards". Here, everyone's old MCSG, SGC, and QQ statistics from V2 to the new update would be saved for players to see. These leaderboards would not be updated, but it would be kept for historical reference.

Argument Summary:

Arguments in favor of a global reset:​

• • The current leaderboards are very stacked against new players. Players who have just recently started playing don't have a chance at becoming one of the top 100 players simply because they're competing with players with a year's worth of experience or more.
  • A fresh restart would be fair and fun for everyone. It's fun to start a new game, and a global reset would be like starting a new game for everyone.
  • New competition and interest rejuvenation. By having a global reset, everyone's stats start at zero. Not only will this give everyone a chance to be an awesome rank on the leaderboards, but that encourages renewed competition between players as everyone races to be the new top player. This will definitely encourage interest in newer players.
  • Legacy Leaderboards is awesome! Anyone who fears that the stats they worked so hard on will be forgotten have nothing to fear. Their effort won't be a waste as their stats are memorialized, and they'll be getting a new leaderboards to work towards again. It's the best of both worlds.
  • New statistics! I love numbers! And we can't have those new numbers if we don't do the reset.

Arguments against a global reset:​

• • It is not fair to hardcore players who have worked so hard for their stats. Despite the presence of the Legacy Leaderboards, these players want to continue building their stats for the sake of climbing the leaderboards. Resetting their stats would put their effort to waste.
  • By having a global reset, hardcore players will get demoralized that their stats are gone. This may encourage those same players to stop playing, and thus reduce competition ingame.
  • I just don't like change.

Vote Summary:

A vote Yes means:​

• • Everyone's statistics would be reset upon release of the update, giving everyone a global fresh start with stats on the new system.
  • The new leaderboards will feature a greater number of statistics items due to the a global reset status.
  • The Legacy Leaderboards page would be created to offer historical reference for statistics prior to the update.

A vote No means:​

• • Everyone's statistics would not be reset upon release of the update. Everyone's stats will be carried over from the previous leaderboards.
  • The new leaderboards will not have any of the new statistics items. The new leaderboards would only track the same statistics that the old leaderboards does.
  • The Legacy Leaderboards page would not be created, as it would be unnecessary.

Also, be sure to vote in our in-game poll as well! The results of both polls will be used in the final verdict.​

Questions? Comments? Opinions? Feel free to ask them below.
Note: we can only answer questions that pertain to the poll itself. We are not at liberty to discuss the details of the update. You just have to wait for the official announcement.

2 Words..... bunnies - NO! it would ruin the community, everyone who is decent, would quit
