I've been saying this for quite a while and even made a thread about it quite some time ago.
I've been checking out the most recent pages in the gameswithmedals section and there are many games that have 0 points medals, most of them in the first page. I may have missed some, but here's a compilation of those I've found:
These are crappy games that have 1-2 medals clearly broken, so they should be immediately removed.
All of these games have better quality than the previous ones but their medals are all broken, so either authors should be contacted to try and fix them, or they should be removed.
I haven't tried this game since it lags like hell in my computer, but almost all medals are 0 points. Just the first medal has been unlocked by a few people but the last unlock was long ago, it'd be helpful if someone could play the game and confirm whether that medal works or not. The rest seem to be all broken.
Two medals with just one unlock, from the author, and three medals with no unlocks. All should be removed.
I recall seeing this game on this thread before, but not a single medal was removed, even though all of them seem to be broken and the author doesn't fix them.
Also, this game seems to have the https problem because all medals have their last unlock in August / September 2017

Some already done, I didn't know that the Turd of the week is still being awarded ;-)
For some of the recent ones I am still giving the authors the chance to fix things up, at least they are responding. If not, I will take them down as well.
As for Ultima Esperanza... I am not sure... I mean I got plans to learn Spanish, but currently I can't even figure out the controls in this game and it seems like the first medal has been unlocked several times, so some of the others may work as well. It would be needed for somebody to go further in this game to be absolutely sure.
The same is for Cosmos game, since it is a multiplayer game - I think? - it is possible that some of them are working, but nobody met the conditions to get them. In fact they look a bit complicated too get.

I have mentioned that in the past as well. In fact, I even went farther and suggested just getting rid of secret medals.

Nope, as HerbieG says medals don't work either. I've also encountered problems with some audios in the game, so it all seems to be bugs that the author (Munguia) would have to fix.

Well, I don't think they should be removed, they add a bit of emotion to medal hunting and sometimes they're medals that contain information (in the picture or description) that would spoil things about the game if they weren't secret. That's why, by showing the name, you're given a hint to unlock the medal without being spoiled or something.

I understand what you mean. However, it can be a huge waste of time to PM the Author, who often times will not reply, to figure out a secret medal. Especially, the ones that you can not earn during normal game play.

Wait until the 1st of the month and try again. It's possible it's a nutcasenightmare api game, in which case whose always work near the beginning of the month and then stop working near the end of the month, repeat every month. It's because there is only so much bandwidth for it and it uses an external site which if lots of people play those games eats up all the bandwidth before the month is up, which happens frequently.
A site-wide fix is possible but it would require someone with admin privileges to enact. What they would need to do is copy the functionality of the nutcasenightmare medals api, except host it on newgrounds itself (or whatever newgrounds-owned site officially hosts that stuff) and then run a script on the site going through all instances where the nutcasenightmare medals api website URL is called, and replacing with the newgrounds-owned site URL. Would then take some time while the script worked in the background doing all the search-and-replace. At that point the entire problem would be fixed though, provided the replacement API was indeed fully compatible.
Again, requires an admin to do though.
And I don't know if this particular game is nutcasenightmare medals api but it might be because it seems to be HTML5. Just wait until next month and try and that will give your answer. If it works at that time, it's nutcasenightmare medals api game.

@Glamdrung - do you remember this game?
I do remember playing it but no longer have the computer I played it on to check. I'm pretty sure I played it to completion but got shafted (I may not have gone for all of the medals, like the one for drifting, but the ones for beating every level, not shooting, killing 100 I probably did).

Thanks for information. 7 of these medals haven't been even tested by the author, so they are probably not working. The problem is that they are being displayed under the game anyway.
As for the World chaser... I have to admit that I never fully understood what is going on in this game, but I have spoken with the author in the past, so I'll ask him to make some cleaning there.

Something like that's really hard because it's probably a) a huge amount of skill combined with also b) unreasonable luck.
So unless someone has actually done it but not been awarded the medal, and are absolutely sure they have them *all*, then it's really hard to say if the medal is broken or if it's just really hard but possible to do, just not been done yet.
There definitely are 0 points medals in older games which indeed are possible to do, but just so hard no one has ever done them yet. And of course once a single person does it it becomes no longer 0 points. I myself have nabbed some of those ancient 0-pointers on some games but there still exist more.
Not broken medal unless it's literally impossible (and this is absolutely certain) *or* many people have achieved it but no medal and still at the 0 points.
Drugged Driver for example has a 0 points medal I'm very sure is possible to achieve, but simply no one has (yet) done it because it's so hard to do requiring huge skill *and* unreasonable luck, but I'm almost certain it is doable. It's very possible I might achieve that one at some point though I have so far failed at it. (You have to lose with *exactly* 666 score, on the dot!, with at least one drug)
It seems like only the "Tap the stooge!" medal is not working. I see that the other medals are working fine, but this one shows that it was achieved in-game which it doesn't apply to your profile.

So it was a nutcasenightmare API game, as I suspected?
Or was something actually changed?
Again, near the beginning of the month, so all those will work again until the bandwidth for it is used up, which depends how many people play such games, but usually ends before the month is up.

The Circle 1 medal has only ever been awarded to the author.
The Hardcore Mr. Smiley, Heavenly Apple, and Dora the explorer medals have never been awarded to anyone ever.
You reminded me about this game, so I tried it today and if there isn't an extremely rare circle 1 area, then this medal is not obtainable, because even after about 40 minutes of constant gameplay (one playthrough without dying) I haven't met the last one I am missing. This also means that the Dora medal is impossible to get, because you will always miss at least one area. I am also not sure how lucky somebody would have to be to finally advance from the circle 3 area to circle 4. According to the game there is only some 6% chance for that to happen, but I passed lots of circle 3 scenarios and still nothing. So far I decided to remove the medals for the 1st circle - unless somebody will prove that this last area actually exists - and the Dora one. Since only the author unlocked one of them it will cause no harm to anybody.

If I remember well, all 3 medals have been confirmed to be broken. They should be removed since the author doesn't even seem to be active on the site anymore so they hardly will be fixed.

I don't specifically remember who stated it but I'm pretty sure I saw it, even some people in the review say it. Also, the fact that the last unlock for each of the 3 medals is in 2012 (considering that a LOT of people unlocked them in 2012 and, suddenly, it abruptly ends) makes one think that they're broken. And of course, you can check out the secret medal, which is the easy one since it is unlocked for dying 127 times, and see that it doesn't work as NekoMika stated. And the other 2 medals wouldn't be exception.

About the secret medal - right. I'll check those reviews if they were written by credible users. I think NeonSpider mentioned it some time ago - and he is also right about another thing he mentioned back then that probably some of the users cheated in this game somehow, I even recognize some of the names.
