[Medal] Separate Medal Counts

Post by GeneralAnestetic »

it's a small thing, but there should be separate medal counts for game achievement medals and community achievement medals.
i mean i'm looking at a guy who has 104 medals, but that's just because he has a ton for organizing or winning tournaments.
i realize those things should be recognized, but organizing a tournament isn't in the same class as, for example, the cross-map gold medal.
one recognizes a contribution to the site, the other recognizes play ability.
furthermore the latter medals are unlimited in their ability to be acquired whereas the former have a set number you can acquire, so there's no real way to compare numbers.
by separating the two counts you'll see who's achieved the max game achievement medals & the people with community medals can still compare their totals.


additionally you could rename the designation for community achievements to 'awards' or 'trophies' to better distinguish between game achievement medals and other recognitions.

Currently only a maximum of 30 tournament wins & contributions medals are given out. They are capped.

However i do like the sound of categorizing play ability medals and achievement medals separately, in that respect it's a good sugg

If you look on people's walls, they are categorized. I don't understand the suggestion. Isn't this already done?

there's a small line separating them on the wall, but nothing really distinguishing. anyway, the main point is the counts, not the wallspace. like when i look at your post here it says 71 medals, but really you have fewer game achievement medals than i do.

Oh, I see what you want.

You want to be able to see a difference between Game Achievement Medals and other Medals under someone's avatar when they post.

This is not really important to me, but I do see a distinguishable difference. However, I would say that tournament wins should go more with the Game Achievement Medals that with the Tournament Contribution Medals or GA Medals. The same with Clan War wins. They are part of Game Achievement, IMO.
