Monthly Top 5 Ribbons

Now that the Monthly Top 5 functions on a 30-day expiration basis instead of the actual months, I'm pretty sure the ribbons are supposed to be awarded to any av that achieves a spot in the top five? I noticed there wasn't one on my Solar av, which is nbd, but you might want to check on the coding for that function.

I've noticed that too. My HA that was in the monthly top 5 until September 27th never got its ribbon. It wasn't kicked off the top 5, it was there until the 30 days expired ;)

This still isn't working quite right, I don't think. When an av expires from the monthly 5 it's given a ribbon, but it still doesn't seem to work for avs that make top five and then are pushed out by another HA.

monthly and weekly top 5 ribbons arent (and never were) supposed to be given out to avatars that get pushed off before expiring.

Really? My bad then. I thought weekly 5 did.

Not sure it makes sense that it works that way though. Imo, if an HA makes a top 5, it makes a top five. I don't see why later being out-adored should negate that.

We'll take that into consideration and get back to you, Sin. The reason we do this is because some avatars can be on the top five for a day, an hour, or even minutes and then would earn the medal. We feel this current system allows the medals to be much more rare/unique.
