I think the silver and gold would be to high then. Perphaps, 120, 400, and 900, or something along those lines.
Where did you get 900? I think it should be 800, more of an even-ish number.

I don't know, it just felt right. BTW, if it's not even, it's odd, there can not be an even-ish number, and even at that 900 is an even number.

Ya but it's not an even multiple of 100, if you count them (:

This needs changed in the next round of things but x6 is to much more like 2 or 3 would be more fair.

Ya, maybe 2.5.

So it'd be 50, 250, 900.

Would that be ok? Or are those too far apart?

I would say the gold is way to far out 50, 250 and 500 sounds more reasonable to me.

Well the 500 is not far off the current gold. I say 600.

I agree with PC9. This definitely needs to be changed; the whole point of terminator games is to take people out, not win games.

And you mean you shouldn't have to win as well, right?
Right.
Just like you don't have to win to get points in a Terminator game.
You can certainly add my vote to this.

Because you get points based on defeats, winning is not all that important, is often a secondary goal in Terminator. If you have a choice between defeating three weaker opponents or one strong one, it makes sense to take out the three in terminator ... whereas in a different game type it doesn't. The medal should definitely reflect this difference, BUT the number of defeats required should then be multiplied ... perhaps to 6 times the current number (average of 4 & 8 ).

I still don't know about times 6 that seems like a lot...that'd be 2400 for gold!! I bet wacicha doesn't even have that many!!

Why should the number even change...? People would be getting less unique kills for each game they win, but likely the same amount of unique kills per terminator game played.

This may also introduce a different strategy, where you will go after someone in a terminator game just because you have not previously killed them.

I agree with this -> I don't think there is a need for the numbers to change.

Why?

I think the numbers should be inline with the current system...

As LH says above - it's just the same difficulty to gain the kills.

I think it was already said that this would happen, when they revamped the medals ... but that other priorities were first.

When I suggested this, I was under the impression that you had to defeat 20 teams, not just 20 different players on teams, etc.

So, yes, now I would say it should be the same.
