I don't worry too much about my ELO but when it does go up I know it's because I've been playing well, which has some rewards I think. Knowing I got there by cheating wouldn't do much for me.
Hopefully gets admins to fix the metagame. Tournaments prestige got fixed this way. And now it looks like arena is getting fixed with the turn based issues. Hopefully Elo is next.

Yes it was bad judgment to do this meta game (which benefited both myself and 2 friends).
Tournaments prestige isn't really fixed though? Yes it's no longer exploitable thanks to the XP cap and minimum player size, but I was under the impression that those were temporary until they come up with a fair way to compute tournament prestige (which I don't think is especially difficult). Certainly I'd rather have one that would award more than 300 XP for significant tournaments.
