...but are always false, because there is no way for someone to win other than ratification? I still think it's fairly useless to ratify that someone won; it might create the obligation for the Herald to award Champion, but cannot change reality about whether they won at that time or not. My old achievements proto even had this: The Win that Never Was - Be ratified as having won the game at a certain time without actually having won at that time.
