Consolation stab EOG
After the sour taste of defeat of the Gunboat tournament, a group of tough survivors decided to have another taste (and seem to have ended up having more fun than the others).

An offer to Kestas...
Kestas, oh great and mighty!

If you will strip Nigee's coin/badge from him (and him alone) I will contribute an amount equal to 150% of what he has contributed to the site.

Well, then if being a mod comes with a daily, weekly, or monthly points ration, forget everything I ever said about never wanting to be one!

I do like the idea of a Developer or Contributor badge for people who contribute code or time into the site via volunteering as a Tournament Director or with Ghost Ratings.

Don't care either way about GR badges.
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))

If we have a GR badge, hell, shouldn't we implement GR on this site? (Gee, that sounds like a great tagalong idea! Thanks bo!)
Tru Ninja (1016 D(S))

I also don't like the idea of GR badges. Being able to say you're in the top 10, 50 or 100 is its own badge and clearly visible to all who want to see it. The donator badges aren't as clearly visible, so well worth it.

I do agree with badges for those that have helped improve the site or otherwise contributed something substantially positive to the Diplomacy community.
jimgov (219 D(B))
30 Apr 13 UTC
@bo - We don't even need GR badges. Maybe the names of the people who are in the top 10 (25? 50? whatever) have their names a different color than everybody else. Now that would be cool.

Octavious (2701 D)

I remember, way back in the mists of time when I was the noobiest of noobs, that this site had a hilarious little feature where you could effectively pin cheating accusations on a player's profile page. If the bones of this idea could be revived, but instead of complaints you were limited to adding your name in tribute if you thought the player had just played a particularly good game against you, this would make a far more effective badge system.

Members could compete to see who could be the first to get the tribute of ten of the top 100 GRs... Maybe even all of them!

Ah! Jennifer Aniston! Yummy!

She did a skit on In Living Color once involving the "Just Do Me" pump in which a gym shoes turned into a set of very high heels by pumping them up. I can't find it anywhere on the net. If one of you all finds it, I would be most grateful.
Maniac (189 D(B))

I like the idea of a badge for the person who takes over the most CDs. Surely that helps the site?

Also a badge for each year or service.

Can we have a badge for the person who replies most often to the plague of new threads created by noobs for the purpose of finding out what the badges are for?

This usually does not happen very often, but you folks have changed my mind about badges. I think there should be a badge for everything.

There should be a badge for how long you've been here, your win/draw rate, your GR for all combinations of each category (who's to say live ppsc is the same as non-live ppsc, and live ppsc world map is definitely more prestigious than non-live ppsc world map), who took over the most CDs, who has the most post, who has the most +1, who has the highest liked/post ratio, who has the lowest, who makes the most money in real life, who has the biggest penis in real life, who has the biggest penis online, who can post the most inane daily reading, who bets banned the most (although this one may seem a bit contradictory but I'm sure you genius can make it work), and finally, who's a real life 16 year old model.

Wait, I don't think Kestas would have the time to make all of these badges and who's to say that he should get a say as to what badge is important. I think we need the ability to make up our own badge. That's it!

That way, we can display what's important to us individually. And ooooh, maybe we can have a profile page where we can show off all the things important to us because you know the number of badges will just grow and grow. Yeah yeah, maybe a profile page where we can choose to put what's important to us there.

@Maniac ... how about the top two? We both deserve some props ;)

Seriously though, taking over CDs is a big deal.

Why do users display "Available Points" instead of "Total Points"?
For what the points mean or don't mean, seeing and ranking by total points is more informative that the current display of available points, no?
