3rd place only becomes necessary when you have around 15+ entries, in which case placing in third could actually be seen as impressive
Top 5 voting hasn't made sense for almost the past decade, if there aren't a ton of people entering then there's no need to bother mentioning the top 5. Just make a lamer version of each competition badge, award it to anyone who submits a valid entry, and let people keep their old Top 5 badges as a legacy feature
Yeah, top 5 has been really silly. Especially for comps where we've had 6 entries and it becomes a game of "which one entry do you like the least"
I think top 5 voting could still be a thing if there's at least 10 entries since the pool of voters is so small right now, but imo give everyone the participation badge and just have badges for 1st and 2nd.
