Introduction                                            
This guide is meant to clarify the prerequisites to obtain unlockable awards as well as to provide a history behind the retired ones.
 
Awards are not automatically rewarded. If you believe that you have fulfilled the requirements of certain awards, please post in the Missing Awards Thread and a staff member will update your awards profile.
 
You may also suggest award ideas in the General Awards Suggestion Thread. If you are ranked Private or higher, you may propose your award ideas in the Award Making Thread.
 
Exclusives                                              
Staff members, past and present, made one personal award to hand out. The requirements are purposely hidden. Feel free to openly deduce the requirements with other members.

Great Guide @Keil now to see if I can fulfill some of these requirements

Openly attempting to deduce how to get my award will likely result in the spork being used on you, making you ineligible to wield the spork. Just sayin'.

Sooo... about that cuteness level 999 award you give out.... HOWDOIGETIT?

[Keil]

@Cohle

 

Even if the staff member is retired from staff, I don't think the secret is revealed. I'll give you a hint though: 999 is a lot, so 27 is good enough.

[Strategist]

That award would be retired now though right?

[Keil]

I'm just as confused because wouldn't Ali's Spork and Joe's Gavel be retired too? I don't really mind either way.

[Waser Lave]

As an ex-staff member you can still have the ability to give your award if you're going to be around to do it. Not sure what's happening with Joe's one (it probably should be retired) but the Spork defiantly isn't retired.

[MC10]

Time to go through and see if I can acquire anything else as well .
