I think its more of a "misery loves company" thing.

People who did barely any work don't care. People who did too much work are angry and miserable (rightly so) and want everyone else to be miserable over it to share their pain. There's no "accomplishment" about it. It's just flat out cynical and terrible game design that shouldn't be in the game. I'm so angry about it. All I ever do when I login is think about how I've failed and how far I am behind everyone because I've done 800+ fates now and have gotten only two. I was even a real poophead to my boyfriend today because I'm in such a foul mood whenever I play this game. All I feel is failure. There's no motivation.

Failure.
Failure.
Failure.
Failure.

I think I hate this game.
