With something like this in place it would make sense to have official events and trying to attract advertise sponsored ones.
This part is interesting…
I agree that the devs have got enough on their plate just making the game work properly for us and it would make a lot of work with no real reward to organise such an event, BUT…
The sponsorship potential might actually work! Allow an advertiser to sponsor the event, provide the resources to allow them to even create another department to work on this model and of course charge an entry fee so tokens are being used up as well.
It would be a massive project tbh and the guys who create the current World Cup competition along with the great Interliga competition that was created by the players themselves done a great job at starting something. The disaster of the untested big update release last year took the wind out of a lot of sails though so it will take time for people to start trusting the gameplay again before starting such a massive undertaking
