it's a currency, not a good. The supply available to players is fixed while your personal supply may be big.

When you have 300 tickets, does winning 2 more really make you happy? Not for most people. The more you have of something, the less it matters to you. The harder something is to obtain, the more you value it.

that's for the individual to decide, and it would be a favorable circumstance if people like you and laura stopped playing events as it would give noobs a chance for once. However, since it seems like GCs are only willing to host for certain people, this doesn't happen.

The point is, since people have so many tickets, they don't have the extra motivational drive to try harder to win events. Winning and losing matters more when something is on the line. When you don't care about what's on the line, you don't care as much about the event nor about winning. People wouldn't leave events as much if they cared about tickets. People would join events more often, even if they didn't like them, if they cared about tickets.

That's the case for a few people but not the overwhelming majority.

It's pretty simple duda. People aren't motivated to try harder because the prize is something they already have in vast excess.

for what, 4 people?
