Anyway, this way, everyone automatically gets their best rankings with minimal amount of effort.
2. Co-operation. Sharing the same amount of kills results in you all getting the #1(-#5) awards. For example, if the entire community decides that Thou Shalt Only Do 100 Ult Kills, then you can have ALL the Unions get the full Dragon Eye Shards.

Realistically speaking, I've never seen #2 come into fruition in anything other than extremely small scale. Which is why people tend to flock to tactic#1. Power begets more power.
Damn, I never actually considered option 2 to be a thing...

The top level unions could certainly co-ordinate that if they're willing to though, it only becomes a problem if you're trying to control 9-10k players, or 500 (if I'm being optimistically realistic on the number of hardcore players?)
