I DID read your post.
I wasnt really interested in the actual numbers, for the reasons I gave in my post. If you had granted 500 CPs thats up to you, as again, theres no right or wrong just a guidline (thats also only relevant if you play a game similar to the way the WEG designers).

My only problem with this statement is...have you ever thrown a grenade? I have, and they are heavy.  |
I have thrown (Swedish) hand grenades, and they are not heavy. The newest is about half the weight of the M67, but the older verison was about the same weight so I can compare.
Info about the M67
About the M67 Fragmentation Grenade: •Body - steel sphere with scored steel spring for fragmentation
•Filler - 6.5 ounces of Composition B.
•Fuse - M213.
•Weight - 14 ounces. (about 0,4 kilo)
•Safety clip - yes.
•Capabilities – The average Soldier can throw the M67 grenade 35 meters. The effective casualty producing radius is 15 meters and killing radius is 5 meters.
•Color/markings – The M67 grenade has an olive drab body with a single yellow band at the top. Markings are in yellow |
I have thrown grenades, knives, hatchets, spears, balls and can tell you from my experience they are a LOT different in how they are thrown.

Or run tournaments.

Which wasnt what I was arguing, just that a grenade is not really heavy (perhaps if you have really thin nerd teen stick-arms perhaps).

Ah, yeah, "tournaments".
Well, that isnt the case here, so your arguement is still not relevant.

You are arguing against GM:s running their own games when it comes to awarding CPs, specifically in the OPs games. You then brought up Tournaments as an example where you *had* to stick to the RAW recommendations. As the OP did not discuss Tournaments but their own games, that arguement wasnt relevant in this case.
