The merit and demerit point system give a certain structure and incentive to our Group for adhering to the Code while playing EDH. This system also provides honest and transparent expectations of what kind of EDH games/play style that our Group is currently fostering.
Trophies
Leader by example (+3): Killing a player with commander damage (21 damage from a single commander).
You’re going the wrong way (+1): Survive the game with over 80 life.
Hanging by a thread (+3): Survive the game with less then 5 life.
Headshot (+2): Kill a player, or be directly responsible for killing a player, by reducing their life total to 0.
First red card (+1): You are the first person eliminated from the game. Multiple players can get this point by dying on the same turn, but only if the game continues beyond that turn (e.g. multiple people survive that turn).

Mass murderer (+1): Destroy or exile 10 or more creatures in one turn.
Love conquers all? (+3): Save an opponent/teammate from another opponent by preventing their elimination from the game (Only the last spell/ability that saves the player counts and once per player).
I only kill creatively! (+2): Killing a player by an alternate win condition, decking out or making a player lose the game not through combat/commander damage.
Get to the chopper (+1): Survive until the end of the game and be the last man standing
