Scratch Ranked Contest System(SRCS)
You can do contests with a ranked system against other scratchers and audience members can vote for a project to win and the rank(not shown) will change and the next time someone does this they will be against, another scratcher closer to their own level.

Um.. rejected in a way
TOLORS wrote:
8.2 Add a rank above Scratcher or allow users to skip the New Scratcher status
There are three ranks: New Scratcher, Scratcher, and Scratch Team. The only reason the New Scratcher rank exists is to prevent spam, and since it only takes a few weeks to become a Scratcher, bullying and separation are rather minimal. Similarly, the Scratch Team rank exists so users know who is on the Scratch Team; generally, Scratch Team members do not brag about the Scratch Team rank. In contrast, there may be division in the community between Scratchers and those with a higher rank, which could also lead to bragging and bullying. This also includes a “verified Scratcher” status where well-known Scratchers get a special symbol next to their name.
Although the restrictions for New Scratchers may seem annoying, they are extremely effective against spam and inappropriate content. For New Scratchers who are wondering how to become a Scratcher or what it means to be one, check out this post. The Scratch Team will not allow any accounts to “skip” the New Scratcher status, even if it is an alternate account of an existing account.

What does that even mean, what is a rank period, its meant to challenge people in a contenstWhat i'm trying to say is, giving someone a rank any rank would fall into the rejected suggestion, and it may also cause issues.
You can always make a contest without a rank as a prize.

Still an issue, since people can brag about being put with Scratchers with higher level code. And also, Scratch isn't a competition anyway.You don't know about the rank its just to match you up with someone your skill levelWhat does that even mean, what is a rank period, its meant to challenge people in a contenstWhat i'm trying to say is, giving someone a rank any rank would fall into the rejected suggestion, and it may also cause issues.

Exactly, if you had a rank for each persons skill level, they could brag about being “better” than you, or use their rank for negative effects like stated in the reasoning behind the rejected suggestion.You don't know about the rank its just to match you up with someone your skill levelWhat does that even mean, what is a rank period, its meant to challenge people in a contenstWhat i'm trying to say is, giving someone a rank any rank would fall into the rejected suggestion, and it may also cause issues.

In contrast, there may be division in the community between Scratchers and those with a higher rank, which could also lead to bragging and bullying.
