Re: Proposal – extension for Athletics

Chris,

More likely what your thinking of are those Non Traditional Events that
sometimes do happen in our dimension.

I won a "napkin ring" prize at the carnival for getting three rings on a
milk bottle.
I got a pink with pinker polka-dots ribbon for being "a good boy" today at
work.

In that case, a prize was received or awarded for some personal or team
accomplishment or met goal.

Games, in general, do this all the time.  Badges, Goals, Achievements,
Prizes, etc.  ("Steam Achievements"
