It's a matter of debate whether one classes the lifetime award as being 'won' or not.  That's why I answered as received instead.  If I had answered in the negative I suspect that would have been criticised as well. 

The onus is on the players to choose their 20 questions carefully.  I can only answer YES or NO.
