I preferred the colored dots to these. They were easier to see at a glance and less distracting.

I am not sure what to think yet, but it is "busy" that is for sure. I guess I will sorta tune then out as they are distracting to me. Lets see what I think in a few weeks time. Thanks for the update.

It has been brought to our attention that the word 'OLD' carries a negative connotation. With this in mind, we use discontinue the use of the OLD icon and replace it with the once used silver ball icon.

The other 3 new icons will remain in use.

This can be used in the mafia forum. You just have to convince the mods over there to do it. It's up to them.

Maybe you should have used "Wise" to satisfy the geriatric community here. Or "aged" like a fine wine!

If you want a precis, a Grand Finale is a special tournament at the end of a series of tournaments, rewarding the winners of the subsidiary tournaments. The series must be at least 8 tourneys long, and there is no organisers' medal or winners' medal, although there is a GA medal for the winner.

close to true.

some GF's have medals for the winner and no GA medal. some have no medal for the winner but a GA is given.

in some cases the GF is added to the database for the host so it is included in the overall tally of completed tournaments. whether a medal is awarded or not is a moot point as most hosts have already maxed out their 30.

in some cases the GF win is added to the database for the winner, for others it is not. i haven't bothered to check if that corresponds to the awarding of medals mentioned above but i think it did.
