The core problem of competitive games is that they're "owned" by someone. Imagine if "soccer" or "tennis" was owned by a corporation.

This is what's happening when you watch a competitive game of Counter Strike (Valve) or Starcraft (Blizzard).

Sure there are institutions like FIFA and Wimbledon but nobody owns football/soccer.

My proposal would be for a game to be competitive it must be open source by default -- a generous license like MIT.
