[Med] BETA Map Medal

[DoomYoshi]

what else needs to happen to make this GO?

It's been stickied. Right now the [Submitted] section still only has Battle Royale medals and Monthly Challenge medals waiting to be implemented. Which means this is probably next, after those, if it gets approved. Which it probably will. But this won't be an instant process. If you are playing Beta games, feel free to spread the word about this suggestion. Extremely popular suggestions may be hurried along, but there are no promises.

This is indeed next in line to be Submitted (as far as I am concerned, it's a go from us), but as DY says, we're currently waiting on the programmers to get to a few other things that were ahead of it in Submitted, so we'll let it sit here for now and garner other feedback.

Stupid idea.

I'd prefer an escalating spoils and flat rate spoils medal.

We already have that in the standard medal category.

[waauw]

waaaa!! I really like this idea!

[Metsfanmax]

I'm going to submit this unless we have a significant number of objections from the community. I'll give people one week for commentary if you have a reason why this should not be submitted, or if you just want to express support again.

Since the primary beneficiaries of this should be the mapmakers and carto mods, I'm wondering whether your department shares this feeling? Any idea on how the rest of your team feels?

I have some level of concern in that this medal would seem to presume that there will be handful of maps in beta at all times for the remainder of the site's lifetime. I am not sure that this will (or should) always be the case. Is it okay for a medal to one day become temporarily or permanently unobtainable? Or is admin willing to commit to somehow making sure that there will always be beta maps?

I think it's ok for a medal to become unobtainable in the future in principle, as long as we aren't intending that to happen any time soon. For example, the Conquer Cup medals make sense even though we may not always have a conquer cup.

I think it's a great idea and should be implemented at once.

Can we get this kicked upstairs to the new boss sometime. No one can really say anything bad about it and only good things will come from it. Not a finished product but an idea on how to show them. Similar enough to what we have now for medals but different enough to be recognisable.

Indeed. SUBMITTED!
