well you could get exclusive skill points which you can assign to your prefferred flatabillities
Personally, i think this is actually a good idea, and something I've thought about since these battles started.
I dont know if anyone has ever played text based RPG's (yes yes i know, SUPER dorky but FU), but adding that type of setup to this system can add ALOT ....i mean TONS of fun and motivation towards this type of thing.
For example:
Rider Joe vs Mike
Mike beats Joe with a score of 20 to 10. Mike earns 50 points for a 2:1 ratio win. Mike level's up to 'LVL 2 - Battle newb'. Upon gaining of certain levels you get new gear or parts or if we want to make it traditional RPG we can give 'powers' aswell. Maybe even distribute specific powers or items that can be used somehow in the battle process. Possibly 'flat tire' which invalidates a specific number of seconds towards the person's run.
Etc etc.
What do you guys think? Personally, i think such a system would be f*ckING KILLER and if you dont like it I HATE U SRSLY.
