See I'm the opposite. I cant log on for 12 hours in a day, or put up 20k attacks in a day, but I'm able to log in on a daily basis and put in some attacks everyday thus making it easier for me to compete in a long term compet*tion. I know I'm biased but I think there should be some kind of reward for dominating for that long of a period of time. I'm just saying there should be both to satisfy both types of players as opposed to just rewarding one or the other. 

Let's look at the statistics here.

Last pay period (2 week pay period, 10-21-2012 thru 11-3-2012)  I worked 31 hours of overtime. I grossed $2,413.15 USD of which $374.77 USD was taxed by the Federal Government, my state took $123.10 USD. That means 15.53% of my pay check went towards funding your online play time while you are at work. The feds have taken out $6,049.07 USD this year.

In other words... no, I don't believe you should be rewarded for being able to dedicate so much of my government funded time to the game. I pay for that time and you're welcome.

You know, I had a big rant typed in here, however I'm not going to stoop to your level in a public forum. You wanted to make it personal and I'm not going there. I'll keep it to private messages.

Personally, I also think that both short-term and long-term achievements should be rewarded.

In all honesty I wasn't even thinking "reward" in the sense of actually recieving items or points or anything like that. I was just thinking like a "buff".

For example, for the daily attacking compet*tion the "buff" could be an increase in your turns per hour for the next 24 hours. OR for a daily XP compet*tion you could gain a "buff" that gives you increased XP per kill. There could even be compet*tions for who gains the most credits through attacks. Then the monthly compet*tions would just have a longer duration "buff" that would be a**ociated with winning them, like say 7 days or something.

Its just something to think about.
