This is kind of a response to OP and other comments. Getting the egg prize isn't supposed to be something that's easy or accessible. There's a reason only 100 are given out. If every user was hitting the top level ultra hard goal that wouldn't make any sense. I mean I've been here since the site launched and I've only gotten it one time. And yeah, that one time I was literally clicking all day every day and it sucked, so I haven't done it any more. Getting the egg prize shouldn't be something you expect every time or even every season unless you are prepared to devote all of your time and energy to it, so complaints that it's inaccessible or unhealthy are kind of just how it's supposed to be. In my opinion, the hatching unique egg tournament is one of the most easily achieved hard goals of any tournament. That one happened a few times last season. I was really really busy with school, so I would max my egg timer after reset every day (~15 minutes tops) and then ONLY log on throughout the day to change parties- NO more clicking- and I got the hard goal in about 3 days, every time. The ones about body style are harder because the hard goal involves hatching 90 eggs instead of 60, but it's still doable, and if you devote even an hour a day of maxing egg timer and party clicking, it shouldn't be that tough. Getting the egg is a different story, but I already addressed that- I'm just talking about reaching the "hard" goal. It makes sense to me that newer users are having trouble completing the hard goals because they're HARD! Someone shouldn't be able to join PFQ and win the egg in their very first tournament, that doesn't make any sense. It's "hard" for a reason. In this very tournament I achieved "medium" with only maxing egg timer for two days and barely playing at ALL other than egg timer. Easily <30 minutes a day. In my opinion the "easy" and "medium" goals of each tournament are essentially the "beginner tournaments" being suggested. Additionally, the implementation of "beginner tournaments" would come with a whole list of caveats. How do you make sure veteran users don't join and dominate the leaderboard to easily get the prize? Make it so you can only join one tournament or the other? Okay, but then they could still join the casual/beginner one. Do you make it that only accounts of a certain age can join beginner? That's not fair to people who start and become very active very quickly, maybe they want to do the regular tournament. And also, I've seen several users lately saying "Hey, I joined in 2014 and forgot about this completely, now I'm back!" How do you let them join the beginner tournament? How will the prizes and goals differ? Will they have different tokens? It just seems too much.
