Marathon Trophy now top 500 ??

So the trophy is now top 500 in the marathon ??

Is this supposed to happen ?

And will the Autumn 2021 and Winter 2021 etc. also be 500

Is the 500 a trial ?

No , I don't think so , the last prize given by lichess , was on top 500 and the prize was given ...

This is also a good experiment to see if this will boost participation across 2000-2350.

But, this will be difficult too, for players competing at the lower end.

I think it is better to give top 500 than top 100. I love this change.
