By using a cheese (cheese forever) it is possible for fireteams to achieve a score of 600,000+ simply by farming themselves and stacking the revive medals, effectively negating the point of the competitive playlist entirely.
This exploit skews the top 10% score threshold well above what anyone can attain without using these exploits. This is not in keeping with the competitive nature of the games and serves to devalue them in general.
Bungie please remove these medals from the scoring metric and reset the scores for the player base so that a meaningful competition can occur.

People seem so enthralled by this, it's almost sad. Let me ask those of you complaining about this "not cheese" MEDAL EARNING, point bonus achievement...how exactly does it affect you? Does it pay your bills? Does it earn your money? Does it put food on your table. Does it do anything in your life where you have to, out of sheer self-motivation that you MUST be in the top 10%? That instead of taking advantage of a loophole that not only benefits your team, but actually rewards you for doing so, you all have to complain on the forums about it like these people just broke the law? Now, if my GG was trackable, you'd see that my highest score is 277k, nowhere near the 600-700k you guys are seeing...but b*tching about this is about as sad as complaining about people who take advantage of certain perks/meta's to one phase raid/NF bosses, or whining about those who used to farm kills in Thrallway...
