Have any trophies been allocated for Season 16? I can't see any

I got the notification of winning a trophy but then the badge is not in my achievements page

I have gotten no badges for neither season 15 (3rd) or 16 (1st) for the game Zola.

Not sure if this is because the amount of players is too low though.

1) When do awards get given? I was top 10 in next station but no award received yet. Previous seasons this has been given. Has this changed?

Indeed it appears we had an issue with the Top Arena awards. Thanks for the quick reporting.
It should get fixed within a day. You will be able to see your trophy then.

Thank you for your patience!

The Top Arena trophies have been awarded just now! Apologies for the inconvenience.

Can the arena pages PLEASE display what trophies will be earned based on current player count so we can know what the minimum places will be awarded. If we can see only top 5 will get trophies unless more players join, at least we have something to aim for.

I also have not been able to find what the minimum for top 5 to be awarded is, but there is documentation for top 10 and top 20. Can you please advise what the player minimum is?

I agree this would be useful. Knowing if the cut off is top 5 or top 10 etc affects whether to play more games in the last week

Based on analysis, cutoffs could be +1
1-49 players: Top 3, 6k to winner
50-199: Top 5, 12k to winner
200-499: Top 10, 20k to winner
500-999: Top 20, 30k to winner
1000+: Top 20, 60k to winner

Typical. There were 199 players in p.i. so I didn't get an award because of one digit in the maths. Great...

There are also missing Arena rankings in Anachrony and Teotihuacan.

Do these normally show in the player feed? I don’t see it there yet.

No rewards for Sahwari.
Badges from previous seasons are now described as gotten at this season.

This is helpful, although it would still be great to be on the arena pages, especially since most players do not come to the forum.

Also not sure why BGA cannot just confirm these as their own FAQ only mentions cut offs for top 10 and top 20, leading to the assumption top 5 has no cut off otherwise why wouldn't they take the 20 extra seconds to add that info as well. So it was a big disappointment when I placed 4th in two different games 2 seasons ago only to not get anything. As KenFin1 mentioned, I would have played more at the end if I knew.

I don't see my Azul ranking, maybe I'm not looking in the right area? I was looking in profile based on seeing it there for other players.
The more I learn about BGA the more I come to understand the frustrations of some of the longer serving members about locating information and the clarity of it.
