Give more reason to participate in tourneys (in General)

I don't know if it's been mentioned yet.. but has anyone else felt that it's reasonably pointless to play in tournaments?

I feel that I'll never, EVER, win one so I will never even try. Why? You get absolutely ZERO benefit if you don't come in the top 3. So why should I burn a thousand BA knowingly for no rewards?

Hence, I propose that we be able to keep a proportion of the money earned by our tournament characters, and that proportion can be some thing that equates to the amount we would've earned without the extra cash bonus.

Otherwise,we'll continue to have these localised, small and boring tournaments.

What are your thoughts?

Tournament BA is separate from main char BA, I think? It doesn't cost you anything except time to participate.

Oh, and for those who would say "that's why the tournament BA is separate",

Once upon a time, CB used to reward those who played actively and did not miss BA. Now, that advantage is nearly gone with the new BA refresh rate. Allowing people to gain the extra couple of hundred k's from tournament BA could be the reward for those who play actively...

I liked the old BA style as well :P

but with modern tournament bonuses the way they are, it's too open to abuse.

It works best the way it is. Granted, incentive is not high, but it would be hard to revert to the old method. Especially because everyone's refresh rate is different.
