Not really a Bug I guess but a question about the medalians in the metavers

Mine only show a 5 game winner on and I have won 11

I was just wondering about the little icons (medallions?) or medals by your name when you post and such here. Well what I am wondering is why with my having won eleven games why I only show a 5 game icon? I have seen others with a 10 game and some even with a 20 game winner and one with a 50 game winner. I was sort of looking forward to getting that little buggar, lol. N E way, I was just wondering. I have both games but got them the expensive way, $30 at wally word for DL and then I downloaded and also had the CD shipped to me from here for $34 counting Tax (iirc). I am still a noob and have been playing only about 9 days counting today, well make that about 10 days it is after 3am again, and since I got the DA game I have only be getting about 4-8 hours sleep every 36-48 hours and it is starting to wear me down. My wife and grown kids (23 plays WOW and 21 plays PS2 ) that still live at home with me and the wife say I am getting addicted to Games again; because when they were little I use to play about every day for 12-16 hours or longer but I quite not long after the N64 came out; because I had beaten every game I tried and one (a karate fighting game) with my eyes closed when I played it for the first time on a bet with my son then about 13 or so). I decided not longer after Mario 64 and my not liking the 3D graphic in 360 degrees to quite gaming and spend my time learning more about computers which were just breaking into the home market.
N E way to make a short post that turned into along post essay a lot shorter , lol, I love the game, and I know the little icons by your name when you post in here isn't important, I was just wondering why mine only showed 5 games instead of the actual 10 one, and to say to the developers Great Job!!. I program to a very limited degree on VB, my biggest module in VB was an activeX control that allowed a flash movie FS command to execute local program from a web page without the page visitor needing to ok it first; but I still love creating little programs that I need or want instead of having to look for one. Like when my youngest daughter was having trouble with fractions in school, I wrote her a little program for her computer that calculated fractions using actual fractions instead of first having to convert them to decimals (I think it is still up for free download at download.com called dinofraction). So I will get off here; because I didn't set out to write a book, geesh!

You are showing a 15 game icon, so not sure what the problem is.

If it's the games won - there is no 10 game medal as far as I know. It goes 5, 20,50.

Don't bother. You won't find the palyer with one. Whatever that is, you won't find it.

Sugien, if you would like to know what the various medals mean, follow this link: http://metaverse.galciv2.com/index.aspx?g=legend Unfortunately, Stardock has never bothered to define what their 'achievement levels' mean. Level two is five games won, by the graphic, but there is no easy way to know what the others are. The next one very well could be ten games won. Who knows? The only way to be sure is to search every post on these forums, look for a medal you don't recognize, 'mouse over' it, and compare it against the posted list. Very clumsy, and time consuming.

You have to specifically allow this to be done. I'm sorry, but I can't remember where you have to go to do this; I'm sure someone will come along and enlighten us.

Tnx, that shows them all, and I see the 10 game one in there. I know that they really don't mean much; but it is kind of unique and I like it; because it lets you know if the person that is replying to you in a forum has enough wins under their belt so that you know that they *know* what they are talking about. Besides it is just to coin a venacular from my youth **Neet**

Did you log onto the metavers and then come to the web sit that way? Or did you arive from a link from some where? I think you have to be loged in. I dont' know how or if I did anything, I just noticed that after posting my first win they showed up

Go to the 'Manage characters' page on the metaverse, and click the default button by the one whose medals you want to display.

The think he was asking why *his* medals didn't show up, I could be mistaken but I think that is the case
