Well, I am glad that the crest is back and like the rule about advancing to #1 contender if there is noone else on the top. Actually I was about to suggest that myself. Grandpa Kim beat me to it

.
One thing I don't understand, though, is that the current contenders #2 - #4 are not moved down to the top of the hill, because the new level doesn't solve the problem of the long queue of contenders. In fact I find it somewhat unfair to all the people who fought their way up through the extra levels.

For a short time Asmala added another level cause things were getting backed up, like they are now I guess. But it was a fairly temporary situation and he took it back off a while back because things had thinned out significantly. At that point we had like one person on each level and it looked like it was going to be a while before that changed.

I think you are mistaken here, Geo. The extra level has been in effect for a long time since May Last year. Also ever since the extra level had been added and DavidG and myself lost our contender spots, all the Kings and contenders had to go through the extra level. That is also true for the current #1 contender, BBegemott.
So moving the current #2 - #4 contenders to the top would not only solve the problem with the long wait queue. It would also mean consistancy for the hill, since no #1 contender has (yet) slipped under the radar of having fewer levels for a period of time.
Don't get me wrong here. I don't suggest this out of spite, but out of fairness.
