Re: Weekly Tournament: No reward given for World Ranked

I feel ya, competition is tough for sure, but that's not the point of this topic: i went -14 for World Ranked and just didn't get a reward.
That being said, i am far from being one of the best players and i could've "easily" reached -18 if i didn't mess up here and there (was the arcade difficulty one, maybe pro - same thing anyways imho).
I only bought the game after S1 was over already but managed to get into the Winners circle for one of the seasonal tournaments in S2 anyways, but i guess you could call me a vet from PS2 days so i just had to re-learn a couple of things and was good to go. TBH the game feels like an exact copy of the old TW games as far as i remember. I mean, even the "stuck animation bug" from back then was still in here until recently, so it's natural you have a lot of people calling their old muscle memory etc out of retirement, being able to produce passable (in some eyes maybe unbelievably good) scores..
Bottom line i also have the feeling that the competition increased during the last 2 or 3 weeks: I guess more people are learning to play the game properly. Good thing overall if you ask me, but tough for the competition for sure - i feel payouts should be adjusted slightly to compensate for that, but yea.. that's a different topic.
THX for contributing, though.
