Congratulations Nygaard.
There should be an "Order of the Gold Ingot."
Bronze awarded at 1000 games, silver at 2000 games, gold at 3000 games, and a bar to the gold award for every 1000th games after 3000.
BTW when are you going to join the full Colonels?

My congratulations as well Nygaard
An award for dedication "above and beyond" sounds good to me.
But a further linked award also needs to be considered
"Dedication in the face of adversity"
This should be awarded to the long suffering wife/girlfriend/partner/family

I don't know if that will make my wife happy: "hey honey, you know the game to which I am addicted, which makes me spend evenings after evenings on the computer and makes me come to bed too late, and makes me tired in the morning? Well it gave you an award ... "
I think that would make her use words I never heard her say ...

While I like your idea eldonion, I do not want to make my girlfriend curse - she's fluent in 5 languages

If she curses in M44 online she may not be able to say (should that be write) anything more for a little while.
As you, yourself, know well.

2000 games at approximately 20 minutes a game average = 40,000 minutes
40,000 minutes / 60 minutes per hour = 667 hours
667 hours / 40 hours per week = 16.67 weeks
16.67 weeks / 4.33 weeks per month = 3.84 months
That means if you were getting paid for playing Memoir '44 online your employer would owe you for almost 1/3 of a year salary. Hmmm!

LOL! Thanks for doing the math for me!
Though I think I play my games slightly faster than 20minutes per game - and I have the advantage of being able to play at work (shhhhhhh - don't tell anybody)

In your calculation Magnus you forgot the 10% increase in GI that DoW awarded when they changed the charging rate in November or December last year.
I had just bought a Major pack and the 10% increas meant another from 200+ GI for me.

If you keep going on like this, they'll need to install a release especially for you, to enlargen the column with the number of games for each player.

Congratulations.
I'll only hit 500 official games any day now. I expect I'll make Colonel around #525 (250 games after Lt. Colonel).
I don't know about you, but I need some new challenges (e.g. official scenarios). I'm not that interested in trying to master Red Barricades Factory by playing it 100x.
I bet a lot of us would like to play some Overlord online, too.

I'm hoping for an upgrade before Christmas that would contain new scenarios, fixes for expert mode terrian, new achievements (perhaps another special one like the Arnhem Tree) and activating the next rank (I've played almost 1/3 of my total games as Colonel).

Dunno who is this Chuck Norris you keep on talkin' about but he can't be that good...
He is not even an established player...
PS: Instead of talking on the forums, you'd better practice in dice rolling... 
That's what I do and I heard it served me well...
See you on the Battlefield!
