The only way this actually works is if you move CTF to in-person only. There's no other way to reasonably prevent the whole leaderboard being taken up by whoever spent the most on tokens.

Sure, I don't know how to make it work. I just know that DeepBlue didn't kill competitive chess. We simply have at least 3 different rule sets, namely

- no computer assistance, which does also mean no mobile on competition, human only

- advanced chess with assistance

- computer only, no human assistance

and arguably chess itself is not doing worst since.
