Couple of things, the tabs under the game at the top are now not correct. Medals and score are under game options, not medals and score. Secondly, the new medal for tournaments, got one but it is not showing on my profile.
@agentcom, we only found about the transformations a couple of days ago ourselves. We need time to digest them and find out what can be done. Expect an announcement by nobodies at some point.
Lastly, and I am going to say my
last piece on this as I really have been fighting for this not to happen is escalating spoils.

If it causes serious problems for Escalating games, we will of course revisit it. But for now, let's give it time and see whether it works as intended.
They wanted it so it got done. No amount of argument against it was considered. A small minority of members wanted it so it go acted on. It was never even placed into the submitted suggestions forum, bypassing any last debate that could of happened. The only reason for this could of been Mets trying to force a change he liked and not many others.

Wow, 44 people like a change over 5 years.
Lots of love for this. As for the level of 79%, that is a really bad number as all of those people wanted different things. So 79% for what has been done is not correct. As for when Duke suggested this once again for the tenth time, it got traction as the suggestions team liked it. We have many suggestions in the suggestions forum that has not one dissenter but will never be implemented. Some have even been suggested over 10 times like a resign button, and again will never be acted on.

One of my many arguments ignored.
There really is no pros (only cons) to changing escalating spoils like this as all spoils can lead to stalemated games. This is just another tacked on change to try and stop stalemates for one set of spoils. Instead, we should have been having a debate on how to go about stopping stalemates for all games. Round limits was supposed to do this but they are not mandatory and the problem continued.
