I think it shouldn't be that hard.
Maybe like:
Gold: Top 10
Silver: Top 25
Bronze: Top 50.

I like the idea of "Score Badges," as a summary of your highest scoreboard achievements. (As you rank would be a summary of your current scoreboard achievement) I.E. there could be one for Top 500, Top 200, Top 100, Top 50, etc. Each time you achieve a new level, it could replace the old.

The idea stemmed more from the Special Achievement award- as they are
awarded to members that made a special contribution to the website or community.I think being Conquerer is a great achievement from the player's aspect of the site- gaming side. It should deserve recognition- not necessarily a medal for how high you've made on the scoreboard. Although it certainly could be a separate idea for medals. EDIT (hehee-- what Andy said )

Maybe there should be EASIER score medals..like starting at 2000? So like bronze 2000, silver 2500, gold 3000, platinum 3500, diamond 4000?

The thing about set levels of points...they will become outdated eventually. But there will always a "Top 50" etc.

Ah, true..what about top 100? Er, maybe 50's fine.

Top 4... that's all we need...
But Really...
#1 is a huge accomplishment
then upto #5... there have been a LOT that close but not to #1
then upto #10... a HUGE amount have cracked this, but no higher
then maybe 20 or 50
then top 100... or 1st page (250)
All depends on how many...

I like this idea. How would CC track it as scores are often changing etc?

I like the idea of a "shield" or "badge" that will show everyone's highest score or highest rank ever.
BUT, I also like the idea of a "top 10" (conquerer is already top rank). How about combining them ... a silver badge for everyone, gold for the top 10 at any moment.
OR, even a "white" or "clear" badge for everyone, a bronze for the top 100, silver for the top 50 and gold for the top 10???
AND I still would like to see a revolving medal (or badge) for folks who play and win on ALL the maps, not just a cap at 60... and one that they would have to keep earning or lose. That is, they would have 30 days to play new maps or would lose the medal. Maybe even make it 10 wins instead of just 5 ... to make is really something to earn?
I want to say that this would help CC meet one of the stated goals of trying to get folks to try different maps. Most people try maps once or twice, but having just won 5 of every map, I can say that playing enough to win 5 times makes a big differance. There are several maps I had avoided like the plague and now actually like, once I gave them enough of a "shot" to actually understand their play.

I think that adding two new ranks (platinum and diamond) is unnecesary. I would rather have the Bronze medals actually be difficult to get, since 20 games is really not enough. Almost everyone you run across has a bronze medal in some category.
I like these two options:
1. Make the Bronze as hard to get as Silver is now, and bump the other two up making gold as has to get here at cc, as in the Olympics.
2. Make Gold: top 50 to qualify for a medal, Silver: top 100, and Bronze: top 500
The numbers can change, but Gold, Silver, and Bronze (edited from where they are now) is much more appealing to me than adding two more medals.

I personally like the platinum and diamond status but make them much more difficult to reach so it is a rarity, this way most would not have them, unless they truly dedicated to cc or played a ton, loyalty.
example, played 100 games bronze, played 500 games silver, played 1000 games gold, played 5000 games platinum, played 10,000 games diamond
or again, if you ever reached 1000 score bronze, even if current score is lower, 2000 score silver, 3000 score gold, 4000 score platinum, 5000 score diamond
there is many other examples, but what is kool is if they implemented these and others with all platinum and diamond, there would only be a handful that would have them, a vast majority would not, which I think makes it neat and something to strive for.

fog of war
victory achievement for consecutive wins in a row
freestyle

map makers
medals for wins on all maps, example 10 wins on brazil map bronze, 20 wins silver, 50 wins, gold, 100 wins platinum, 500 wins diamond, this would happen for every single map, would create more playability
here is a list so far, any others ideas for cc to think about or possibly add?

freestyle

flat rate
map makers
escalating
medals for wins on all maps
example beating 20 unique opponents on brazil map bronze, 100 opponents silver, 300 gold, 500 wins platinum, 1000 opponents diamond, this would happen for every single map, would create more playability + versatility.
A few more ideas were added, the list is here and on page 1

I've just sat through 2 weeks of the Olympics and all I saw were bronze, silver and gold medals.
No one got a Diamond or platinum medal. CC is awarding medals, not wedding anniversary cards.

This is not the Olympics and it was just a suggestion.
Use the casino philosophy, they have gold status, platinum status and diamond status, and I know this is not a casino either
at times with platinum, always diamond, you get treated like royalty when you have them VIP.
It is business Pete, just good marketing campaining by me, lol, since medals are hot, to implement more and a little further out so many can strive for and keep the site booming with activity more than ever

Perhaps, I should try for VP of CC

I'm sure that as time goes on, the bar for each medal will be raised the same way in which ranks were.
