Plan to remove benefit for failing leves?

[Leonesaurus]

While the current situation where players intentionally fail leves is not against the rules of the current game design, it obviously doesn't foster a healthy game environment. In our future plans for Guildleves, we don't plan on adding a penalty for failing, but instead plan to include a bonus for completion.

Why not just allow players the option to hang onto their completed guildleves so they can do them again and upon reset instead of hoping to God the counter has them again?

1 good reason players all choose to fail their leves is so they have them again upon reset. The guildleve counter forces you to hand them in when you complete them without any choice of what leve you can select. They instead give you 3 random leves that can either suck balls or be they end up being the $!@#ing awesome leves you just competed that gave you and your party excellent sp for the leve links.

The other reason players like to hang onto them is that, if the counter indeed ends up having the same leve that the player is currently holding, they can do them twice. Granting double sp if they can find a good party to do them with. Taking this joy away would piss a lot of people off, believe me.

I understand why players do this, and I do it too. Its smart and easier for us to earn sp. So, instead of teasing the players to complete their leves for a larger bonus AND making them lose their leves for Broken Water, give them the option to choose whether they want to renew the current leves they completed or hand them in for another new set. Therefore, you accomplish getting players to complete their leves for a bonus AND allowing them to hold onto all their favorite leves again, and again, and again.

That's my 2 cents, make of it what you will. Thanks for the all updates also!

Is that sarcasm? I can't tell. Why not just keep the leves that give good sp. scrap the rest, then everyone can just cash in constantly on SP?

I agree with normalforce's post as well.

It's not sarcasm, I don't know why you'd get that impression? People fail the leves just to hang onto them. I do it, my friends do it, my LS does it, and everyone in the game who ranks up fast does it. The moderator said along the lines of, Let's encourage players to complete their leves more by getting better rewards and what not. So, if they implement this, why not also give us the option to complete our leves and hang onto them again instead of hoping the counter offers them next reset.
