So the largest and most unique feature in this server is Murder. Most players come and stay because of it; so to attract more players and increase activity, why not make it a little more competitive?

What i'm suggesting is that there should be two leaderboards for Murder: a monthly resetting one & an all time leaderboard.

Someone recently made a thread to reset the leaderboards because new players simply cannot beat the scores of players who have been playing for years. Hence, a lot of new players are repulsed and are discouraged to play more.

So why not make a separate, monthly resetting leaderboard, and possibly add rewards? That way, new players, and players who don't play as often have a reason start playing again, and more regularly too.

Rewards may include:
Rank tag for the player of the month (e.g <M>Elite+ Froge (edit: focus on the <M>, elite+ is my current rank and it goes next to it)
Top 1-3 players could be added to the murder names list for the next month only
Murder points/coins/whatever the currency is
$10 rewards
Others.

It's just a suggestion, what is everybody's opinions?

I suggested them a long time ago. Yet in your suggestion you say it is for competition and rewards. I simply wanted it for competition and a improvement chart.
I like the idea about the basic stuff or simply the leaderboards. +1

Yet the idea about rewards is not needed. There have been murder competitions for event and this is about what happened. This would make this event pointless. So I have to give a -1.

Extra stuff: Also new players don't have trouble ranking up you see. I had a friend who started with at alt who is at rank gold. They pushed them selves to rank 130 so easily which to mean is insane. Yet I have 30k games and can barely rank up.Which I believe should be changed. Yet some players simply play for fun and never care about the rank system.

Also elite+ is a big rank not such as small as mine. Just handing out elite+ might increase popularity yet it might in fact decrease the servers income of money. I do like the name in murder idea if I want to be honest here. Name in murder is for murder and so a murder competition that will only make things in murder is neat. Yet ranks maybe vip yet not even that isn't such a good idea.

A little misunderstanding, I didn't add ranks to the rewards system simply because of what you're saying is 100% true and i agree with it. The "<M>Elite+" example was trying to emphasise the <M>. Elite+ is my current rank and it goes next to it.

Also I should've made it more clear but the rewards are absolutely not necessary! I used words such "possibly add rewards", "rewards may include", etc.

The post is more about encouraging a monthly leaderboard, if you think it'd be a good idea change to +1 but its your choice :)
 
+1 sorry for the misunderstanding. I am not that good with reading or with writing lol.

Yet still a lot of new players have the advantage in the all time leaderboards and well I have a disadvantage with my 30k games played lol.

I think the prize shouldn't be as big as a rank because of the fact that the leaderboard is reset monthly. Similar to the build battles, I think it should be their names in murder for all time if this ends up being implemented. I don't normally care about the murder ranking system, but the monthly leaderboard may be something fun to work at in my spare time. +1

He/She wasn't adding ranks but a mini tag that says you were in top 3 for a month correct me if I am wrong. I too was confused by this yet if you read the above information it should be clear. <M>rank player name is what he should of put xD yet what he is trying to say is <M> will be what you get for being in the top 3 or 1st bleh.
It would most likely go like this
1st: name in murder X2
2nd: name in murder
3rd: 70k coins
 
+1 I love this idea and will almost certainly make me and others play more.

However, if the points algorithm is similar to the current one, in which the number of games you have played affects your points dramatically, I dont think that it will be fair on older players.

That algorithm really needs to be changed, so that loyal players who have played lots of games actually have a chance of ranking up.
