Ed_Haynes Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 (edited) W 12a, W 12c, W 12e -- Wrestling Badges, until 1992These wrestling badges are complex and require an understanding of Mongolian wrestling, which I don't have. But I have figured out a few things.1- There are no weight classes.2- It is all single-elimination.3- The badges are awarded for competitions at the annual nandaam celebrations. (In Ulanbaatar or everywhere? Maybe the local nandaam give rise to the provincial wrestling badges and these are the national ones.)4- There are several ranks:-- Supreme Champions ("Everywhere Celebrated Whole Ocean Sacred Giant") -- Hero of Labor material?-- Giants -- victors in several nandaam ("several"?)-- ??? -- nandaam victor (guess)-- Lions -- winners in 8th and 9th rounds-- Elephants -- winners in 6th and 7th rounds-- Falcons -- winners in the 5th round-- Hawk (guess)5- I think there are several ranks missing from this list?Shown (as in Battushig) are the Giant (W 12a), Elephant (W 12c), and Falcon (W 12e) badges. Missing are the Lion (what seems to have been left open in Battushig as W 12b) and one other unknown badge (W 12c). Post-2004 badges are known in the rank of "Hawk", so where does this rank fit in and what does it signify? It would seem there ought to be something between Giant and Lion?I'll be trying to get a lot of this clarified.See also: http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=6987And, even though it is Wikipedia, see also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongolian_wrestling Edited December 5, 2006 by Ed_Haynes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Haynes Posted December 9, 2006 Author Share Posted December 9, 2006 W 26 -- Referee BadgesI am now a bit confused by these. Showing below W 26a, W 26c, W 26d, and W 26e (donot, yet, have a W 26b). I am struck by the smaller size of the 2nd class W 26d. Help?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
