Not true. Others and myself think that the current statistics are very bland and straight forward. I want to see some variety.

Edit: Also, to those who use the "players will quit" argument; you don't know if we will gain more players than we will lose from this. I am sure many people will start playing on the servers or start playing more.
And it's worth it to delete our old statistics for new ones simply to seem professional?

The statistics are not being deleted. They are still saved.

Even if they do manage to gain more players than they lose, they're losing players who have been here supporting the servers for years and this is like a huge middle finger sticking up at us from MCSG to be honest.
They aren't forcing anyone to leave. That isn't their goal.

They are being deleted as the main statistic that people view.

Nuh, Nuh, Nuh, NO
People on the 1st page boost?
Only Majestic does. No one else.
Your better than 90% of the people in the first 5 pages?
Is that why you have less than a 1/7 - 1/8 ratio?

This exactly proves my point, another person who supports it, and has a bad ratio.


Also^^^^^^^^^^
lol not exactly sure why i was tagged here? I really hope this isn't you implying that I boost..

Well I play solo, but I know what you mean :)
xD when? <3 love you chibi

Thing is tho, the LB is meant to display skill level. In the beginning, it really did tbh. Back then, either winning was really easy or near impossible. It really showed you knew how to play. Now, it shows you know people to boost with or were here first. The LB should be based on skill, not who got here first. That's the error with your analogy is that pewdiepie is a great youtuber and whoever you mentioned is good at sports or some crap. Meanwhile, on mcgamer, most people on the front page of the LB either boosted or tryharded for it a long time. Big evidence? I'm better than 90% of people on the first 5 pages while I have a total (among all of my accounts) of 1400 wins or so. If the LB reset, people who are good could top the LB now. In case you haven't realized, because teamers and hackers are so common now, it's harder to win. Go ahead and check out gravey on his leaderboards page. He wins far less than he used to. He can no longer play on EU and instead resorts to US. Here, teams are big and frequent and he has a hard time taking them out with his ping. I'm pretty sure he also no longer boosts with large teams like he did for most of his wins. If the leaderboards were to reset, you wouldn't have people like elishamutang who doesn't even play, noahsailer who quit, or gravey who is nowhere near his prime any more on the front. Instead, you'd see people like today's Torchy and @debits ofc not them considering they've quit but there are still people like them. Unfortunately, amongst these good players, you'd see a fair bit of boosters still. However, it'd be mostly good players. All I'm saying is, there should be more than two people on the front page of the LB better than me.

lol a bit overconfident don't you think? Considering the fact that I have never even heard of you before and you are sitting there saying you are better than all but 2 of the top page and better than 90% of the top 5 pages, is a bit pathetic xD. I don't recall you ever beating me once? So idk how you could say you are better than me, and if you aren't better than me, then you defo aren't better than a lot of the top 5 page players because some of them are better than me :p. Are you one of those people who thinks they are better than someone just because they beat them once? xD. Fought once, got the win.. and then claims to be better?

lol again, throwing out some crazy and inaccurate things there. I have never once EVER boosted. I'm on of those people who actually plays solo majority of the time, and when I do team, I don't 3v1 people. I offer fair 1v1's to good players that deserve it.

  • Why not just carry all of the old statistics over to the new leaderboards?
  • Because we would be merging old statistics with some brand new ones, many of the statistics tracking would be unrepresentative. Imagine having a player with 2 years worth of wins, but only a few day's worth of another statistics. It would generally look unprofessional and goofy, and a fresh start would behave and appear much better. In addition, part of the reason we want to do a global reset is to set the record clean for new and old players alike. It's a fresh start for everyone.
I'm assuming here you are talking about like adding more columns to the leaderboards? Like adding more things than wins/losses/time played/chests opened? If that is the case, its simple, don't add more things lol. Keep the same sort of stats on the leaderboards so everything looks just the same, just add the daily, weekly, monthly leaderboards. There is nothing wrong with the layout of the current leaderboards, we just want daily/weekly/monthly things. This way you don't have to worry about having like 5 weeks of gameplay, but only killed 10 people lol.
