Change "Notes and/or Ribbons" to "assets" and there should be no
conflict with Cards.
What if a judge gives a bad judgement, gains a ribbon, gives a good
judgement in another case, then has the bad judgement appealed and
reassigned? The judge is effectively denied the ribbon e could/should
have gotten from the good judgement.
Perhaps notes and ribbons should only be given when a judgement becomes
unappealable.
