Several Game websites, including Kongregate to name one, use a Medal system of their own. They divide it by difficulty and each type has a defined points score. I've copied this for my own games, so now you can view what medals you have in one place, and via the hub page you can compare your scores by number of medals in each difficulty type and total points.

See here for info:

Medals are divided into 4 different difficulties:

Easy: 1 point
Medium: 3 points
Hard: 5 points
Very Hard: 7 points

I'm working now to identify them via the individual games pages, they'll be marked at the end of each Medal description with box brackets. All you need to do is follow the very simple instruction on the hub page: Download the program, click the calculate verb and it'll do it automatically.

The reason WHY its in its own program is because it takes a considerable amount of time which already lags the games in question as it is, but can run faster and without holding anything up when its done on its own. This means you have to do it every time you want it updated of course, but its a small price.

At the end of each month and year, I'll list the top players, so there is something to aim for; recognition. So you have up till Monday 30th of this month to make the first list.
Pretty snazzy! My WarGames medals paid off!
;p I'm thinking I might snaz up the program a bit, perhaps list ones you haven't yet got, maybe include the medal graphics too, we'll see.
