English Language & Usage Asked by Sīmanis Mikoss on December 25, 2020
I’m writing some in-game descriptions for various challenges.
One of the challenges is to win 50 games, whilst also having the most points in every round of said games.
I arrived at this formulation:
Gained the most points every round in 50+ games.
Do you think it is clear and understandable?
EDIT 1: It’s possible to win a game even if you don’t earn the most points in all rounds. There are four rounds in a single game and the player who wins the most rounds takes the prize.
EDIT 2: These don’t have to be consecutive games.
Gained the most points every round in 50+ games.
I think your familiarity with the games and the challenges is allowing you to write in an increasingly compact form. Your perspective has shifted with your expertise. You are aware of this since you are asking for outside views.
With some effort and your clarifications I and others here can work it out. Unless you are short of type face for printing I suggest you use at least two, perhaps three sentences to say the same thing. There can be little reason not to.
I am still a fan of the outline where you describe the thing, what it's got and what it does. With that in mind you should have no trouble making a perfectly clear description. There are no points or bonuses for brevity.

Thanks to everyone who contributed.
Two valid suggestions were offered by Hellion and Jason Bassford:
I believe both of these answers are easier to understand than the one originally proposed by me.
The requirements for the description of the challenge changed completely, and so did the formulation, hence I will be closing the discussion (once I figure out how).
This was my first post here, so I'm not 100% sure whether it falls under acceptable questions, but I'm glad for your feedback.
