Hi all
This might seem a crazy idea, but here goes: I think it would be a nice personal touch if real lichess shields were sent in the post!. I could imagine people uploading their shield of honour to Youtube Facebook etc, etc - creating even more publicity for the site. Also it would make those tournaments even more fiercely contested if the Shield was also sent in the post!
I am honoured to win the Superblitz shield yesterday, and I uploaded the commentary now here:

I think if the site buys some real trophies (not too expensive I would hope) and sending to the winners if they are keen would be good publicity for the site, and add a real personal touch and add even more incentive for competing for those shield tournaments. I honestly was avoiding them generally as they seemed too long and were just influencing "pixels on a screen". However yesterday I had a real go at one.
I have heard youtube sends people something on getting to 100k subscribers, so it is kind of done there by analogy.
Cheers, K
