nah Martin, ID doesn't need to exist at round end for that award. It's based on activity. If you logged on for more than 36 ticks in the round, it counts as a round you were actively playing
Not when I did it, I had an ID which I deleted and got nothing for it. I was active more than 36 ticks

I got no awards for that round (I think it was that one), which meant even though I had played every round, I got the Veteran award a round after most others.
So unless it was changed....
