We have several players with over 3,000,000 team points now, and our badges go up to team magnate, with 1,000,000 points.


I was just curious, Terry, if there is ever a chance for something like "Team CEO", 5,000,000 points?

Wouldn't a magnate be more "powerful" than a mere CEO? There are MANY CEO's in the business world, but only a few magnates. Rockefeller, Carnegie, Morgan, Vanderbilt, Astor, Buffet, Gates, Jobs. THOSE are magnates! A CEO is like Romney or Michael Eisner. Or Herman Cain! lol

How about Czar? Dictator? Lord of the Realm? Monopolizer?

As a nod to Seinfeld, how about Master or Mistress of the Domain because this is an equal opportunity badge.

Since many people already have 3 million, I think the badge should be very difficult to reach...thus should be at 10 million.

It takes our team over a year to get 1 million points, and we're one of the better teams. ~2.5 million would be an accomplishment on par with the 50,000 whozits/melting points/etc badges.

3 million sounds good to me, none of my team have yet to reach that mark, but will be in the next few months or so.

I will be there in lets say 5 or 6 months and that will be almost 4 years on the site then, so 3000000 would take most people a while to reach, you could always have something higher lets say 5 Million or more

Sorry, as an afterthought, should there also be something higher for Brains than the badge for 2000 which is the highest right now with a lot of players having a lot more than that now. Should there be something for 10 or 15k and then something for 25k.

My team has two members with over 10 million points and a further eight with over five million. It would be nice if at least the 10 million was recognised with a badge. That's a lot of years of loyalty and effort.

I thought we were discussing Team Points not individual points?

It has been said somewhere else that Terry wants to cap the total challenges at around 200, so I would imagine it's probably unlikely that there will be more badges for what is essentially more of the same.

I don't know about the 200 total, we're already at 220 & there are more in the works. Check out the Daily Challenge Forum which is currently active. I see no reason to put a cap on the number of challenges but just to add badges for higher point totals seems a bit repetitive. Although I have no problem with whatever Terry decides to do. The new challenges that are in the works now seem very intriguing. Believe me I'm not trying to rain on anybody's parade but badges aren't the sole reason I enjoy the site. I am still trying to get some of the 50,000 point badges before I need a wheelchair though, LOL!

Some of those 220 are mini-badges and do not count toward level increases.

It would be sad to have the number of challenges capped, as then higher level players won't have much new to aim for.

What would the cap mean for new games that are later included?

I liked the Oligarch idea. Team Plutocrat could also work!
