Special Contribution Medal?

by **Joodoo** on Wed Jun 11, 2008 4:01 am

I'm not sure, but how would someone get a special contribution medal? Do you have to suggest really good ideas (and they're later used), donate a lot of money to the site, or something else?
And are there any guesses to who would be the first to get the medal?

How about for hosting several successful mafia games?

So nagerous is a nominee for the first one to get the medal...
but could any mod tell me how exactly this special contribution is defined?

maybe for successful suggestions.

I've read through all of the announcements threads in CC, and I've seen that a user called ITrade has popped up several times for contributing to an idea that is currently used in CC...
Perhaps he would be another possibility?

I am?

Mafia is pretty overlooked when it comes to the website in general so I doubt it.

Of course, the irony is that I'm guessing anyone who gets this medal will take a rash of shit for being an brown noser. Deserved or not.

To my mind, the most obvious potential recipients are the greasemonkeys...

tr0y, stockr, yeti_c & edthemaster in particular

I'd add Gozar to the list for the tournament newsletter

(I know that you said for greasemonkey but my mind already wandered away to other people who deserve it).

there are so many ways to contribute to the site. But of course if you do not know what they are then you do not qualify.

So that'll be the "Friendly with one of the mods medal" then?

Gotcha.

Rodger Dodger should certainly be someone for consideration. I think she's done a lot for the site.

There are a lot of things that could be nominated for, but it's pretty much the 3 admins who decide (and friendship isn't a criteria...it would probably hurt you because we don't want to be seen as playing favorites).

The 3 of us come at the medal from different perspectives - site, code, maps, community, attitude, support etc etc etc - so expect to see medals for very different things, but don't expect to see a lot of these being given out, they will probably be pretty rare.

That probably took you off the list.

If Johnnyrocket got one I would actually leave the website (maybe thats an incentive for twill and co.

)

Well I make a pretty damn unique contribution to this community, and I have more attitude than most of the other posters put together... also I'm not aware of any of the admins having anything other than contempt for me. So clearly I am the ideal first recipient of this new and exciting award. Get me be-medaled this instant.

Also, Norse should have one awarded posthumously.
