Just a thought, but I was looking around my office the other day, when I said to myself, 'If I ever won a KOTH event, I would want the whole world to know, or at least the people I know, that I had accomplished something of fairly great proportions.' I have been a member of many sporting tournaments, and I feel that the level of competition in the KOTH event is every bit as challenging, or even more so than any of these tournaments I have been involved in. In fact, I think it might be the best place to judge how good an online pilot you truly are. I can't think of a better single event anywhere online that would prove a pilot's skills. No one that is not an exceptional pilot will have a chance of winning the event. Maybe a frame or two, as proved by yours truly when I won a single flight (I was ecstatic), but winning outright is really a feat worthy of recognition in my book.
So, how hard would it be for Hitechcreations to issue a simple signed plaque or certificate to the winner of a monthly event that they could frame and place on a wall if they so desired? I feel that such an award, as simple as this is, could even make the event better than it currently is. I know how hard this is to comprehend since BigMax and the crew does such a nice job as it is, but people might actually jot the date down on their calendars if they knew some trinket or prize was actually at stake here. I know I would truly treasure any recognition offered for participation and victory in this event.
Just thinking out loud here, but let me know what you think? BigMax, is this something that is possible, and would be supported by the KOTH event team?
