trophy medal idea?

Post by WILLIAMS5232 »

maybe it's too late in conquer club timeline, but i was thinking, it would be nice to have a 2nd tier tournament trophy. i don't know if it's already been pondered before. but i was just sitting there thinking because i just started an idea for a tourney and it's like 7 tournaments wrapped up in 1, and it kind of feels like i'll shortchange people for playing in 7 tournaments to get 1 medal. is there any options for me to award the winner other than a standard trophy? i don't think the GA would work in that instance.

I would need to know more details to grant a GA Medal. Another option is creating a series of tournaments with a "Grand Finale" tournament at the end.

Yeah, I was more just thinking out loud i guess, I was suggesting having 2 separate tournament trophies distinguishing a win for a long winded tournament, vs just a simple quick tournament. Like maybe a platinum trophy instead of gold. But the more I think about it, I doubt there would be anyone for it. There would have to be parameters set.. . Arguments over "hey I won this tournament back in 2008", plus the site is in a death spiral, even if a very stubbornly low angle one. So i have trouble seeing it adding any flavor at this point. I tacked on a month premium for each individual bracket win to help.
