No but they will soon enough and my alts will be levels ahead of them, so HA!

I just stop before any of my alts get to the shuriken levels, so they will never reach those. HA!

I think it's literally INSANE how much B/P the top users have. I used to be a B/P slut too, but I'm not even at the final rank yet, let alone the final rank x5.

I agree with how insane the B/P ranks are now. The requirement to enter my Top 300 B/P list is getting so high that I should consider expanding the list sometime.

I used to agree with you, but nowadays I would vote against it actually. Even though it would probably benefit me since I'm currently in the top 100 for medal points. I just think the whole medal system has become a bit silly in the past year and isn't doing NG that much good.

For example, whenever I visit the medal topics in the Wi/Ht? I see a lot of fighting, moaning and accusing over the most pointless things imaginable. Authors eventually started to mock medal point collectors too with games like OCD+ and other stuff that requires an unholy amount of trouble/time to get a medal for. That doesn't seem like the point of a medal system if you ask me.

Also I think it's become totally imbalanced. For some games you can just grab a walkthrough and BAM +500 easy Medal Points and for other games you have to play for at least an hour for a measly 10 pointer. And why in gods name do so many games have medals for dying? I thought you were supposed to get a medal for an achievement, not for sucking at a game =/

Sorry if I sounded a bit too ranty and like a hypocrite here, but yeah... I would vote against including them on the pentalist. Let's just keep them separate from the other stats.

Well if I don't have to then I don't want to draw any people. I'm not very good at it. Backgrounds and buildings are rather simple and linear.

Heh I know. I never succeeded in drawing a decent character model either, but decent backgrounds are not that hard.

With a playthrough of Score, I've finally reached 10,000 medal points. Obviously, it's not exactly amazing, but back when I first stopped medal farming that was above the maximum. I've only made about 700 points since then, I just wish I was that close to the maximum now - it's too far into the system's conception for me to even come close to catching up with the top 50 now.

Sure. The ones that I'm working on so far are 1,000x650 px, which should be enough wiggle room.

I have to agree. I really thinks some of the medals are to cheap, others too difficult (not to mention broken) to have then count as a fair stat to earn. And plus what would we called? Hexalist?

That's why I think we should add medals - not medal POINTS, but the mere quantity of medals - to the Pentalist. 10,000 Medals (again not Medal POINTS but MEDALS) would be very hard to reach. But this is still far in the future. The user with the most medals up to date only has 1089 medals according to NG Log, so still 8911 medals to go until a decision is needed. ^^

Yes, as it is now called Pentalist the next one up would be Hexalist. But what be so bad about that? It originally started as a Trilist (with total B/P, Posts and Experience). :P

Well of course it should be medals and not medal points, because medal points are just too easy to get very high numbers for. In two days time I went from 16k to 20k, and it's not even like I spend two full days getting there. Just a few hours was enough.

But anyway I was just trying to point out how silly the system has become nowadays, and that's why I don't feel like they should be included. I think the decision is up to Bahamut though. He's the list holder and if he really wants to add them, then he should do so. And if it's democratically decided then I'll just accept it as well.

Alternative Character Battle 2 - Battle 1 (Second Round): Terra Branford vs Arcueid Brunestud

On the subject of including medals to the 10k list, I'm still going forward with counting the amount of medals one user has. Getting 10,000 different medals on the site will be time consuming, even if there'll many games with very easy medals.

Oh yeah, that would be quite the overkill. Even though it's kinda sad to see all the reviews "buried" in just one total stat. But four different review categories would be way too much.

23000 medal points

Hah. I just beat One Button Bob for the first time and now I am at exactly 15.000 Medal Points!.

i just tried to get 30000 medal points... but i ended up getting all this medals at once... now im on 30185... :P

Well first it doesn't really roll off the tongue as well, and second considering it's pretty easy to cheat the system and steal medals it would be hard to tell from people who legitimately earned medals from those who stole medals without using suspicion and hearsay. You can check out the top medal list to see what all sorts of problems they are having with it.

But all in all I'm not the one who makes that call (or the list), so if Bahamut supports it so shall I. :P

Yeah, I almost feel like there should be an additional thread where they can call people out and try to prove it there because they are really bringing the threads off topic. It's quite annoying actually. PM system anyone?

What the hell is the point of the medal system if your not going to play the game the way it's suppose to be played.
