This prizes suck so I won't enter tournament argument is pretty sickening if you really examine the implications.
The GM's don't get paid for what they do, and they don't have a choice of the items they get to give out. So, they might as well be ladling out soup in a soup kitchen.
And you, the people, are poor enough that you can't afford nice items by your own bidding, thus, the "needy".
Y'all are acting like a bunch of homeless people going to the soup kitchen and saying the cuisine isn't 5 star quality, so you'll just starve instead. Or going to Goodwill n asking why there's no Gucci on sale for $5.
