Re: From Bill's Blog: Merits of replacing bronze participation medals

It'd take a lot more pins for ballast to achieve neutral buoyancy on my ROV...

In all seriousness though, I think I would definitely prefer customized pins. IMO they look cooler than bronze medals, and you can add them to a hat or something and keep a record of the games you've participated in. The only downside I see is that if they're truly a one-to-one swap for the bronze medals, the teams that win silver and gold at their first regional will miss out on cool pins...

I'm with Billfred, my bronze medals just hang around and clank when something touches them. They're nice to complete the timeline, but they're big and heavy for that purpose alone.
