Swift did hit it home though. I think when new icons are introduced, Swift & Viruz need one just for them that is above master. Then it would be a even playing field for the rest towards MASTER.

Or keep Swift and Viruz as MASTER and change everyone else's goal to something else.

Nooo, not two of them! Make them fight for it in an ef/f mixed bo11 epic seriez!! and only winner gets one

aaaanyway, as for special tags for special people and exceptions, no, not a fan of that. But how about this counter proposal:
1. 1st time master tags a regular master tag
2. 2nd, 3rd time master tags for the same player will be a slightly different master tag (different color or smth?)
...
3. After 3 or 4 master tag wins, a new, "arch master" icon would be granted to that player every time he wins a master tag tourney

Just a little history on the Master tag:

Before the Master tag was even brought to .ru, back when Ldir was the host of .ru and Burnt was the head admin, Ldir messaged me saying he heard I was the best on .ru, and so he wanted to extend a challenge to me. He told me that if I could 10-0 the best Russian player (in his opinion) that he would give me a brand new "Master" tag, and that this tag would be permanently and exclusively mine. He said that he got to pick the watchers, the series had to be on the VPN server, and i had to Warvid.  I accepted the challenge and I won. He stuck to his word and gave me the Master tag.

However, Burnt who had a vendetta against me at the time stated that the master tag will be taken from me and used for "tournament winners". He did such, and then argued with Ldir about it for a few weeks here and there at best. Ldir tried to stop Burnt from doing it but eventually gave up arguing and essentially said to me that he was sorry for burnts actions and confused by them but that he also appreciated burnt for his work towards war2 and that the choice was ultimately up to burnt because he had originally given burnt control over .ru, long before his promise to me.

Very few besides Burnt and Ldir even probably remember this.

So you can all thank me for bringing the master tag to .ru, then proceed to strip everyone else of their fraudulent one's and not hand anymore out. Go make up your own tags.

well i believe bronze, silver and gold "champ" icons plus one "arch master" is not much of a technical difficulty if the admins are willing :p

arch champ*

No, but I actually like your system. It's a good idea.

And "champ" or something of the sorts is more particular anyhow

You can be the sole and permanent master if you can beat MasterKsa 11-0.
