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.

first of al thanks for fixing the points. I just made games for great lakes, australia and japan with 2 players. All but the great lakes show up in the tournamnet site. Know that great lakes have caused some problems and wanted to let you know.

I beat rmjw10 in a Great Lakes game I found through the search engine. Game 17747984

If its not too much trouble can I get the point for that?

Thanks for your consideration.

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!

Yes, you have your token now.

sorry to be a pain in the ass but i see that wins on the great lakes map is not giving points. Maybe i missed something in our previous discussions. If so i apologize.
17747995 and17748289 are the two games i just won

thanks

Hello and thank you for organizing this challenge.
Did you think about a special award for the player able to win :

on each of the 6 maps.

No matter the other settings.
wich means winning in total 30 games!

Thank you for your answer.

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

by **DJENRE** on Tue Oct 10, 2017 5:56 am

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.

by **benga** on Sun Oct 15, 2017 7:54 am

I have 2-1-2 which should be 20, can you correct it please?

isnt 2-1-2 = 2 + 3 + 14 = 19?

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

This is how challenges worked at their conception. People tracked and submitted their own information. Let's ask DoomYoshi 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.

Thanks mate for your hard work, been enjoying this month's challenge and played with a few players I don't usually play with or havent played with at all!!

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.
