Are you seriously asking for a GA medal for dicefucking us in Round 15?

Not sure whether that was sarcastic or not, but here's one.
"Doing the bare minimum" - team with the most 11x10 wins in the end of the tournament
And, yes, I like to give "names" to general achievement medals. That's what Kongregate does.

2. The team that has distributed its gameload the most between its six members (a sort of 'fairness' award)
3. The team with most appropriate name

Please give your opponent a chance to look at the map before taking your first turn in the fog-of-war games.
Have fun all,

Suggestion C would be the one we could do this running tournament, however there is one team that has already four 11-10 wins, while the rest has 1 or 2, with another 8 rounds still to play.... Is this going to be fair?
Opinions please!

I don't see a problem with awarding them in this tourny, since knowing about them sooner would not have changed how anyone played their games. I also don't see why there should be any "15 round" cutoff requirement for either medal.
BTW, great tourny as usual Lindax. It's been fun throughout.

By installing them at this late date, there will be strife if you install a cutoff time. there will be strife if you don't. Adding these medals to an existing competition is a recipe for drama of one flavor or another, period.
That said. I like:
A: 21-0 in a round. Yes, there's an element of luck in it. the whole bloody site is a game, it involves good and bad fortune.
C: Most 11v10 rounds. This is cool, but again, fortune based. Why this is NECESSARILY more indicative of "skill" than going 21-0, I don't understand.
Ones that need some work:
D: points differential: I don't see this. Again, it's luck. The team that crushes some weeks, and loses narrowly in others. Again, it MIGHT be indicative of skill.
E: Gameload distribution: only if all teams are REQUIRED to have 6 players. They don't have to PLAY, but they would all have to register 6. It IS a neat idea... but a team could have 6 players, split their gameload, and have no intention of WINNING the league. Unless you restrict this somehow... "the team with the most balanced game load of the top 5 finishers", I don't see this being a good award, and if you DO restrict it, I see problems. Might have to drop this.
No:
B: 0-points: Good for humor value, but not a good suggestion. Once you drop out of contention... throw a week for a GA medal? Someone would.
F: Name: "Appropriate"??? Sorry, i have to consider "team name" to be a frivolous suggestion of a way to get a GA medal.
