Re: Random Map Medal
I have had a couple of wins since the new random map medal went live, but I'm not seeing it listed when I do a map rank. Did I miss an update for that, or is it still in the works?

Re: Random Map Medal
You should change it to "Upgrade now!" I guarantee you this will perform better in A/B testing than "Upgrade !". As for a color, I'm not sure about that. I would simply make it a unique button on the top right portion of the page opposite "conquer club". However; if you decide to make that switch, change the layout to "Upgrade Today", so that it's less intrusive and a more natural fit to the site.
Also, it may be time to do some ppc. You have the market perfectly cornered anyway and whenever you get click through's it will cost you next to nothing regardless of the search engine you ultimately decide to optimize. You'll notice pogo is one of your only real direct competitors, and they're awful. Try google & yahoo! for starters.
By the way, why don't you have a "refer-a-friend" program? It would be simple to implement. Just offer 3 months free membership to referring friends and $5 off premium membership for incoming players. Unless this already exists and I'm just missing something.
Finally, you should consider updating your left panel side bar to the more "user-friendly" single buttons for facebook, twitter, digg, and myspace, etc. They are a bit larger, but no text, just the symbols. They also have a sleeker look. You're click-through rates should improve. Oh, and kudos on the twitter feed. Excellent stuff. Kudos!

Re: Random Map Medal
The "Referral Program" button is three buttons below the "Upgrade!" button.

Re: Random Map Medal
Oh! I've been meaning to ask... Do random maps contribute to the cross-map medal? In other words, if I choose random and get Jamaica, Das Schloss, and King of the Mountains, do those maps count as just "Random" for the cross-map medal, or do they count individually as Jamaica, Das Schloss, and King of the Mountains? (Or maybe I'm just mentally handicapped and don't understand what the cross-map medal is.)

It's hard to get unique defeats when the same team joins all of them though.

Re: Random Map Medal
pointless medal if it's not retroactive
Re: Random Map Medal
There is no record of which maps were started as random prior to the update which makes the medal possible, so there is no way to make it retroactive.
Re: Random Map Medal
got the gold, but [player]b00060[/player] was first.
Re: Random Map Medal
Congrtas SDH, we may be the only 2 with all gold
