cool! :)
i apologize to @qwerty741 and @adarcela for not responding to messages asking me how I get medals in some games, because i do some cheats that can lead to removal from the medal ranking and I don't want you to be harmed because of me :( that's all

tbf, whenever i see i'm missing only a couple medals from a submission, and it's one only a handful of people have unlocked, i tend to ask advice from the most recent unlocker since they're more likely to still be active.
you happen to consistently be one of the most recent unlockers of most medals that fall under that criteria, probably because of that reason.
it's not like you have to apologize for it; though i do wish there was some kind of public reference with strats for medals requirements that are hard to achieve (that isn't "i cheated it in").
from recent experience, i've found that a good handful of games (especially older ones) with really rare medals tend to have some game-breaking gimmick in-game that was never patched, which allows you to bypass most of the difficulty of achieving one (or would otherwise make it impossible to get it through normal gameplay), and i'm worried the knowledge would be lost once the first few earners stop using the site.
tbf it wouldn't be that much of an issue if there was some quality checking for medals (as in, they'd have to be achievable through normal gameplay without the use of unintended bugs), but that's a lot of extra effort for a feature that's not really important for the site as a whole.
it is what it is
