A while back, I thought there was a comment by a Mod that Plarium was going to rework the Tourney Rewards to make a bit more sense so there wasn't always a competiton for the best gem placement?    

The new 4th place reward that has been popping up in some of the more end-game tourneys certainly doesn't make me want to go for spots 1-3.  It makes me want to dial in on 4th place more than ever.  That seems counter-productive to making the tourneys more competitve for spots 1-3.
