Game 17749213 australia - bronze token awarded
Game 17747987 great lakes - pending
Game 17748731 australia - no round limit
Game 17749209 australia - bronze token awarded
Game 17748733 australia - no round limit
Game 17749218 australia - bronze token awarded
Game 17747996 great lakes - pending
Game 17748724 australia - bronze token awarded
Game 17748726 australia - bronze token awarded

Two of the Australia games did not have a round limit which is why the don't qualify. The two Great Lakes games I'll add tokens to because it's my fault the game finder link was wrong. Going forward, it's USA Great Lakes which drops the tokens.

I don't think I followed this post.

That being the case I'll just clarify. There are two maps, USA Great Lakes and Great Lakes.

USA GREAT LAKES is the map for this challenge!

No, I did not. We did not build in a token system this month to track these stats for each player.

Maybe instead building a system to track it, you could say that if a player reach the requirements he can ask you for the special award, telling you the game numbers for example.
I think a few player could reach it, maybe 2 or 3, so it's not a hard work to check.
Don't u agree?

According to the rules, you have to have at least one of each medal type (gold, silver, bronze) to enable your wins to count. Yet two people with listed points (20 each) do not have bronze medals. Am I missing something?

Scoreboard is not working correctly. Thanks for pointing it out, I'll look into it.

Nope, josko.ri is right, see rules points are 1 / 3 / 7 for 2 / 4 / 6 players, no matter if it's standard or team games.

This.

As I write benga is at 4 bronze, 1 silver, and 2 gold and it is correctly calculated on the scoreboard.

4*1 + 1*3 + 2*7 = 21


MEDAL CRITERIA
Tokens are for WINS only.
20 points are required for a medal and at least ONE of each token type.

Each GOLD Token is worth 7 points - 6 Player
Each SILVER Token is worth 3 points - 4 Player
Each BRONZE Token is worth 1 point - 2 Player

Don't u agree?

This is how challenges worked at their conception. People tracked and submitted their own information. Let's ask [player]DoomYoshi[/player] how "easy" it really was to keep up with those submissions.

Further, where would it stop? I write a challenge, then people create their own challenges within the site challenges and ask for prizes? We don't have the resources to work in that alternate world.

Loved it when you included % into the standings calculation. Some of us can't play 56,000 games each month to compete for top spot like a few players that we all know and love.
