by ponchi101 Hey gang.
I know we are all a bunch of grown ups, people that really make very little about winning (or not) a fictitious little medal. It really means very little, and we understand that it is a fun thing but something that brings very little to the meaning of our lives.
In short, those little shiny medals are virtually useless, and they hold as much importance to us as the menial things in our world.
Things like... breathing. Eating. Sleeping.
Who am I kidding? Most people went to TAT1.0 solely for the SP's and winning one of those things was crucial for our mental well being.
So. I can award medals again. And I will do that on an honor basis. By that I mean, just tell me what you won, and I will trust you. Now, do not go "I won a calendar slam in 2009", thinking I was not in TAT1.0 then (I was). That will be suspect. But if you want your medals back, just do the following:
1. QUICK replay to this post. NO smilies.
2. Use this convention: AO = Aussie, RG = Roland Garros, W = You know, USO = you also know, YCWJ = Wooden Spoon. And then, just list how many you have. Put them in the order of the slams (how they get played every year, and DO NOT GO FUNNY AND USE THE 2020 ORDER). For example, 1 W + 1RG + 2USO + 1YCWJ =
RG/W/USO/USO/YCWJ
Put YCWJ last.

Post no more in your reply. Just for starters. We will later on see if we get some other medals back.

The system WILL NOT put 2 medals of the USO if you won twice. It will display ONE medal which, when hovered over, will say how many times you have won.
For future medals, we will be able to assign them per year.
See my example below

by ponchi101 AO/W/W/YCWJ

by texasniteowl So these are just for suicide pool wins then? I don't have any of those. All my medals are bracket prediction and fantasy contests like Around the World.

Alright. Give us a little time to go through SP's and YCWJ, and then we can do the others. I will post when ready :yD

by Kirkus I don't know if this will help, but we have a complete listing of medals over on 1.0 here: http://www.talkabouttennis.com/forum/awards.php

Will be of great use when new/old TAT'ers come in. Right now, with the few numbers we have, that are still manageable, I will attempt this honor system.
Txs, K

by ponchi101 Woody.
You posted your W medal here. I had to restore the forum so your post got lost. Sorry about that. But your medal has been restored too. :oops:

by patrick 2 RG + 2 YWCJ

by atlpam 2 AO

by atlpam I always performed better in the Olympics. Didn't realize until now that AO is the only suicide pool I've ever won.

by ponchi101 I have loaded all the other icons for awards from TAT1.0.
So, format:
# and contest you won.
For example:
Two times winner of a Fantasy tennis: 2FT
3 times Third place fantasy tennis: 3/3FT

Separate by commas.
Will do my best

by texasniteowl 4/2FT, 2/3FT, 2BPC, PC

So, that is 4 times I've been 2nd in a Fantasy tourney and 2 times I've been 3rd.
I've won 2 Bracket Prediction Challenges...BPC?
I've won a Prediction Contest (PC) once.

by Liamvalid Hi Ponchi I have 2 SP medals, a W and this years RG. I accept that form is disgusting after 10 years on the site, but my New Years resolution is to take part in more comps than just the SP, and to be fair, my Wimbledon medal I did beat the draw!!

by ponchi101 Bumping this topic so it will not be pruned, and for some people that has registered and are not aware of this.
TAT1.0 will close fairly soon so if you want your medals but have like 23 of them, you need to tell me (or have a great memory) for us to award them again.

by New England Nitemare I have 9 total medals:

2 Fantasy Tennis - 2nd place
1 Fantasy Tennis - 1st place
2 Bracket Challenge wins
4 suicide pool wins (2 Wimbledon, 1 Australian, 1 US Open)

by ponchi101 :shock: Your FIRST post was to ask for your medals? :shock:
There is a joke right there about being a contest ho... but I will skip it :)
I think I got it right.

The system here is different. If you have more than one of something, it displays it as you hover over the medal. Try it with you RG medals (It says RGx2).

I do remember Lynn... from getting beaten by Lynn at the US Open and other Suicide Pools :D :D

by jazzyg AO, W, USO

by Tolulops Hi. My haul from the old TAT was: 1 AO + 1 W + 2 YCWJ + 1 BPC

by shtexas I don't remember them all, but I do remember:

1 AOSP men's SP
1 W men's SP
1 USO men's SP
1 RG men's SP
1 RG Women's SP

1 NFL challenge (at least)

And I did have a bunch of prediction contest and fantasy tennis medals, but I don't remember them because I stopped playing those contests a while back. So, whatever.

by ponchi101 Done. I wonder if Kirkus can look at the medals in his site, if he kept a copy.

Not a big deal if they get lost. SP medals are what I crave. LOL.

by atlpam I guess I missed the boat on the other medals. I know I had some type of Predictions Contest medal and a couple of Olympics contest medals, but forgot to detail those out. I guess I'll be happy at least having my 2 AOSP's.

by ponchi101 Yes. I know that there was a list of awards, but this is now lost. Guess we all have to work hard to get new ones :)
EDIT: No, the aren't. Look at fastbackss post and check what you have. Again, we trust you

by Drop-shot I saw this too late :cry:

by ponchi101 Surely you remember your SP's... ;)

by Fastbackss Scroll down and check here:
http://web.archive.org/web/202009271704 ... awards.php

Looks like AOSP, FOSP, USOSP, TAT-FT 2nd, TAT-FT 3rd, PC, PC-ATP, PC-WTA, PC 2nd, PC 3rd, bracket pred

(At a minimum)

Atlpam should check too *wink*

by Togtdyalttai I added medals for Drop and atlpam, but I don't know if there's a way to determine multiplicities from that site.

by ponchi101 I don't think so. I looked up Omegadoom, who has like 25 medals in every category, and his name pops up only once.
So... the counts may be off by a little. Again, honor system: if you claim you had 2 USO SP's we will believe you. Anything except claiming a Grand Slam on any year. That gets you sent to WADA.

He doesn't remember because it's an obscene amount. He's a ringer. Us with lowly medal totals remember our few much easier.


I have the medal counts of a few members, basically my TAT friends who looked like they might be even slower than I was transitioning over here. :lol: And I joined with maybe a week left. I didn't get many, but when I grabbed mine, I got the counts for a few friends that had 0 or 1 post on here and I thought they might not grab their info in time.

I can't remember which ones I grabbed in total, I'd have to double check, but certainly got - Dry, Glenn, and Jeff. I think two or three more, but for the most part, people weren't as slow as me getting over here and already had several posts so I assumed those people had grabbed their totals.

If one of the TAT friends I mentioned want their medal count, let me know. @Drop, I'll send you a message with your 50 medals or whatever high number it is and you can count them up for @ponchi to add here for you.

by JazzNU Just checked. I have the medal counts for Dry, Glenn, Jeff, Charlie, Ribbons, and Munchin. If any of you want that info, just post here or send me a message. @Drop, I already sent you yours.


And I will actually know if you send me a message now. That's why I switched my email for this new board. 😊

by JazzNU FYI, in addition to checking the archived TAT page for your medals, especially in the case of winning something twice, try checking your email if you're not prone to deleting everything that comes in. Searching for either "TAT" and "congratulations" or "TAT" and "dryrunguy" is likely to bring up medals awarded in recent years in your email. Since I had a medal drought, I can't say how many years it goes back, but I have emails from 2019 and 2020 for the last 3 I got.

by dave g When I typed in my initial set of medals, I must have been typing while someone else was, and my post didn't take. I tried the archived website, but had no luck. Thankfully, JazzNU was able to find these medals of mine.

by Snoo Foo I had a bunch of SPs, at least 7 or so many that they weren't all visible next to my name, going back years and years. W, RG and AO but never USO. But I was late to the party so they're gone now.

You can go to this post, which has a link to an archive from TAT1.0
We will trust you on what you say your medal count is:

by weefunk I think I had two medals.

One was the YCWJ contest for AO 2020. The other was a Suicide Pool, but no idea which year or which tournament. Sometime in the last 5 years, I believe.

Look at the link right above your post and you can look up your medals. We will assign you what you state you had.

by Justme I can’t believe I forgot that I won a SP!

1 USO

by Pjstew AU + RG + W (pretty sure there were no multiples. Just know I'm missing the US) Thanks.

Ah, looks like my memory was fairly accurate. Two medals. Thanks!

by Philly10 1 AO, 2 W, 1 USO
Thanks!

by Eskimo53 1 W

Thanks!!

by dollymix I've got Wimbledon and US Open suicide pool wins (I believe men's at Wimby and women's at USO - it's possible I had multiple but I can't remember so am happy to settle for one of each) and a bracket prediction win.

by jieollily0001 2RG

by Herodotus 1 AO (women 2006), 1 RG (women 2006), 2 W (women 2006, men 2008). I think the men's Wimbledon year was 2008, but it could be 09.

by Ribbons Been a while since I looked at tennis the drawer . . .

Thanks!

Your medals were awarded. However, our new system only shows ONE type of medal, and then, if you hover over it, you will see how many times you have won it. So, for example, if you hover over your TAT 1st place winner, you will see a pop up for 4x (you won it four times).
Hope that is ok ;)

by manila smash 2 USO, 1 AO

Sorry--didn't see this before. Is this post still active?

by ponchi101 Because you came here a bit late, we can only grant you virtual medals, not real ones. I hope you don't mind ;)
They have been re-instated. I hope you will add to your tally, Smash.

I know I don't get a medal for this, but for the record!, I also got a bronze in the Battle of the Boards for a Wimbledon way back when.

by ponchi101 That is indeed memorable. Let's hope you will collect some more hardware soon :thumbsup:

by Improbabledream RG/ RG/ RG/ W

I know it was 4 total and those slams but the "w" might have happened between the "rg's." But i think this is actually the right order. But... it was a while ago... but its 4.

by ptmcmahon Archive site makes it look like one of the RGs was a USO :)

Improbable.
Pt seems to be correct; you do have one USO SP. So, in your flair you get: 2RG, 1W, 1USO.
Good luck getting a new trophy :thumbsup:

I thank and appreciate you.
I appear to be one short. I only see three on my screen. I need the fourth medal like the polar bear needs to roll around in the snow. Thank you.

The system here works differently than at TAT1.0. If you hover over the RG medal, you will see that a balloon message pops up and says "x2". You only get one icon, but you get a count.
So you are cool ;)

thank you for this

by ponchi101 Hi NaughtyT.
I just found out that there is something going on with our medal-awarding extension. I can't add yours just yet but I will look into it.
Will post you.

Hello naughtyT.
I think I uploaded your medal, and I can see it. But that is because I can see everything in the forum.
Can you let me know if you can see it in your profile too?

by JazzNU I just realized that Jeff From TX medals are incorrect and he's one of the member's info I pulled when I got my own from TAT 1.0. Please add these to his current medals. Looks to me like he doesn't have a post in this thread at all so I'm guessing his current medals are all new ones from TAT 2.0, he definitely won RG 2022 YCWJ already listed. The info I have says 6 awards for him, so I think that bumps him to 9 in total.

Code: Select all

I think the shorthand of this (it's been awhile) is 2 WSP, 1 FT 1st, 1 AOSP, 1 YCWJ, 1 FT 3rd

But because he has current medals, I think it gets adjusted to - 2 WSP, 1 FT 1st, 1 AOSP, 2 YCWJ, 3 FT 3rd

Hello naughtyT.
I think I uploaded your medal.

Yes yes indeed I can see it. I am embarrassingly proud of that win. Kvitova wasn't a thing back then

by ponchi101 Dear all.
Since we moved up to phpBB 3.3.9, we have developed a bit of a conflict.
The extension that awards our medals (FLAIRS) was designed to run in phpBB 3.2.x. It worked well in all of the 3.3.x versions, so no issues. But, for 3.3.9 the version of php suggested was 8.0/8.1. That made the extension not work. So, we moved back to 7.4.
But, in 7.4, links to Google Sheets and forms do not run. So, a conflict.
To make it short: there is an an update to a new flair extension, so our medals will be awarded. But, as the extension is a patch, I do not want to update while we are running the Aussie. So, on Monday 30th I will update the extension and THEN I will award the medals.
Worry not, potential winners. You will get your little piece of hardware. But it will take a couple of extra days.
Thanks for your patience.

by ponchi101 All the medals and trophies from the Aussie Open have been awarded: :yahoo:
AO Women SP: Chaitumsc, Mikeprice444 and Zephyrstorm03, all first-time winners. Let there be more!
AO Men SP: Alvinlimtc, jumpfroggy, and SMC_mom. Also all AUSSIE OPEN first time winners. Also, good luck getting more.
YCWJ: PeterSkan. Impressive, as this is PeterSkan's FIFTH YCWJ

Scan Contest:
Motobass: 1st place
Oploskoffie: 2nd place
Led14pa2: 3rd place
These are first time medals of this kind for all three members

AMITS
1) Omegadoom - an impressive 11th first place medal.
2) Tenedab - first 2nd place medal, to go with multiple 1st and 3rd.
3) TexasNiteOwl - a fourth 3rd place medal, with multiple other podium finishes

Congrats to all, and hope to see you, at a minimum, for Roland Garros (if not sooner)
