20, 100, and 400


400 diff partners? That does seem to be a very large number.

yeah i agree 400 seems a bit much...that means you have to play team games with almost 1/50 of the site. I would think 25, 75, 150 would be good

100 is pretty low..its like 34 different quad teams...
then standard 400 for gold sounds like a challenge

Nobody likes easy medals to get. 400 would show true diversity. There have been over 300,000 CC players. 400 is not that many.

I think finding that many strangers and winning a game with them would be kind of hard though, actually, I have an idea to expand off of this - instead of a completely different set of medals (as to not flood medal pages), marks on each of the types of team medals showing that you've achieved this circumstance. It would replace the old medal, so to say, but your color of medal would remain the same. Maybe a change in the stripes?

Those are basically the numbers I was thinking... Same as unique defeats except it would be unique wins.. It is possible, yet hard. Just what a GOLD medal should be.

Also will add a poll later I'm going to bed

gold medals should be hard to get not easy so 400 is a good number .

400 different doubles partners is kind of absurd, imo

We want to make it just as difficult as the other medals, not more difficult.




The poll is not the same as greenoaks' idea, right? It's not split into dubs, trips, quads?

No, the poll is for the idea of ALL partners, not dubs partners, trips partners, and quad partners. That's what my idea is anyway. Therefore, 400 is not an absurd number for the gold.

1 medal or 3 seperate medals, it's still the best new medal suggestion i've read.

I think one medal would suffice.

I don't think it'll do a thing to stop farming like you claim (not that I really care). But I'm otherwise not opposed to the idea.

I don't mean to say it will stop farming... I mean to say that it will be harder to farm with this medal... like harder to farm in order to receive this medal. Idk how to word what I am saying... lol

It would be a metal that would be difficult to achieve via standard farming methods. I like it! =D> =D> =D>

great idea =D>

I was originally thinking it should be 3 separate medals, but after reading the thread I agree 1 is probably better (400 dubs partners is a lot)

but once people have the gold for that they will start requesting more medals and splitting it in 3 will be an obvious demand

so why not just implement the 3 upfront + having 3 will encourage more diversity of teams than what only 1 will


even though i am saying it should be 3, not 1 i am not the 'no' vote. having this for all teams is better than not at all

The only reason I think it should be for all the team games combined instead of 3 medals, is because it is almost impossible to play with and win with 400 dubs partners, THEN 400 trips partners, THEN 400 quads partners.. Most of us will have trouble playing with 400 partners to begin with!

yea i agree 400 for dubs will be very difficult to get.1 new medal is more than enough :)
