Regardless of who gets the prize, am I safe to assume that if you entered a photo contest, they will ask you to list the equipment you use in taking the photo? Yes, you won, but did you do it with a drug store disposable camera? It would be great if you did. It shows more skill. I guess, I was wonder why it irked you that people asked what camera you used to take that awesome pic. I am just trying to understand you. I care.
Ok, not Stolen Valor isn't the right term, but you get what I mean. Riding on someone else's coat tails, fabricating, cheat, dissemble, dissimulate, dupe, hoodwink, sham, and whitewash, ect.

I have never entered a photo contest either, and also do it for Fun, not competition or compensation. I’m a railfan, and have noticed in the magazines in the past, that often reader submitted photos, especially those in contests often listed not only, Photographer, Camera Make/model,
This reminds me of the drawer full of powerless Infinity Stones in Marvel’s Loki series. Your well-earned now jeepless badges tossed into a drawer / the stones that are the most powerful objects in their own universes rendered useless as paperweights in the TVA’s reality. Very similar!I think it depends..I have a drawer full including the rubicon and the dusy ershim..I would not feel bad putting those on a jeep if I the jeep I put them on would be able to do those trails...on the otherhand I would not feel right about putting either of those on a stock sport...but when it all come down to it I never put any of mine on the rigs that did the trails so I guess it really does not matter just do with them what you want.
Those items keep some prominence. Someone can buy the car that Dale Earnhardt drove when he won the daytona 500 it isn't just a car, it is THE car he was driving when he won. Carlos Sainz was recently gifted the Ferrari F1 car he won his first race with. They didn't give him just any car, it was the car he was driving when he won. I'm sure you could buy the skates Michell Kwan was wearing when she won gold, or the jersey Joe Montana wore in his first superbowl. Yes the person accomplished the thing, but they did it with that item. That means the person and item are both linked to the accomplishment.
I am old skool....AOL earned mine then....I have heard about gmail but figured too new fangled for me.....
It's a BOH trail, many of which could be run in a Subaru. Stolen valor? Prominence like championship rings? It's a participation trophy. I personally wouldn't transfer badges or own a Jeep with someone else's badges on it, but it's really not that special. If someone wanted to have every badge for every trail THEY have run on their current Jeep I say go for it. Now if you slap your Pritchett Canyon badge on your new renegade we will all just assume you never actually did the trail. Hell the app doesn't even track you through the trail, you could literally drive around to trailhead heads in your prius and "earn" every badge.
The badges go with the driver. Get a new Jeep and do the same trail again, Jeep will not send you a new badge.
With a new email address, just changing the vehicle info won't reset the app and it will not give you the option to receive a new badge.
My vote is for "they stay with the driver." I haven't put any of mine on my Jeep. Instead, I plan on making a display for my Lego Wrangler and will include the badges in the display.
