MO 2.0 has a new badge:
Sportsmanship: Up voted 100 answers on questions where an answer of yours has a positive score.I'm curious whether this badge really makes sense in our community- I think I am more likely to upvote answers on questions where an answer of mine has a positive score, because I learned something from them about a topic which I cared about enough to write an answer on. My hypothesis is that fellow respondents are in fact primary sources of upvotes for answers.

Request: Are these statistics which would allow us to test whether this badge makes sense? Does somebody have a convincing argument for the rationale of such a badge on MO?
Free badges are always nice- but I wonder in some cases about utility.
