Well, more specifically, 93 of your edits were on Talk, State, or Team pages...which are not event pages.

how long does it usually take to get a medal after modifying a wiki?
last night i basically put everything on the Meteorology Wiki- http://www.scioly.org/wiki/Meteorology
and i think it is worthy of a medal... :D :D :D
It does save people a trip to wikipedia...

Boy, I'm just a buzzkill today.

alright
I would post my notesheet,to show how much I did, but it is confidential according to my coaches
It was significant and usefull though
However, because I am the webmaster of my teams website and forum, I know what ds is saying
So, I shall take my beating and lie down

Well ,I dont really care. I just posted all of my notes on the wiki this morning. (then got up to three stars!)

I don't really care about the stars and medals, though. Isn't the main reason for this forum to help others, like ds said?

My fossils coach beat one of the B team kids with a book for using wikipedia...it was pretty funny. (He's incredibly annoying and never does his fossils homework)
Science Olympiad is a tribute to Murphey's Law. This has been proven experimentally.
And no, I'm not a guy...even though my sig says will robsinson. It's a reference to Lost in Space, an ancient sci fi TV show. And the robot is the character who always says the line.

wikipedia is only alright used sparingly
And i admit, I did do it just for the medal because mrcool came to school and bragged and I was determined to one up him, because we always do that to each other
But I agree, this is for helping others, not medals

But medals do make you look good. It makes it seem like you know what you're doing. ;)

Well, Exalted User does have some kind of extra forum powers, but I can't remember what they were (think it had to do with edits, dunno).

Also, the previously unstated rule is that asking for anything will almost certainly result in NOT getting it for a long time. This is because we are (Dark Sabre is) insecure about ourselves (himself), and don't (doesn't) want to look like we're (he's) being controlled by whiny users.
