A bunch of peeps have asked where the skill comp went and why it hasn't been running

Long story short, life happens and it was put on pause

Expect it to be back up and going full swing in the next week or two :D

If you want to be entered automatically please make sure you sign up again


Thanks everyone who has reached out to me about it!!

Just wondering if the competition has changed a bit where a low level player have a fair chance in competition ? Before it was all based on exp gained and at higher level the exp/hr is alot higher than lower level. Thanks

Actually agree on this point.
Maybe make players who are from levels 1-30 in a certain skill get like 1.5x the XP, level 30-60 get 1.25x the xp and then 60+ gets the normal 1x XP. - not exact numbers but something along those lines.

Something like that so even a lower level player or ironman having to do the "not max efficiency skill" will still be able to keep up a bit more

Guess we want it easier to get the small FG pot rather than have some more people play/given a chance to win XD

It's not my fault if I have more supplies than someone. Why make it any different? Highest exp wins end of story lol. That's the point of a competition.

Nothing will be changing about it
The way it is setup is completely fair to all players, everyone has access to the same resources (information about high exp rates)

Adjusting exp gains for players at a lower level provides an unfair advantage in multiple ways over players with higher levels
Some skills it is more expensive to acquire those rates, or in the case of ironmen requires more time investment to gather the supplies needed
Exp rates scale naturally in the game itself, providing boosted exp for lower level throws that balance off entirely

The skill comp is meant to foster growth and competition to encourage everyone to get to those higher levels in skills

And to add onto what stated in the post above, it would also be hard and time consuming for the person running the competition to calculate these things.

A thing to remember, is that the person running this competition, they do everything for free and they're giving up their time in order to make these competitions happen.
