You are probably right about the loopholes, your math is almost correct, you just need to also take into account the carry-on winning reward medals from the last season, which some teams had and now have spent them since there is no point in accumulating it anymore.

Even with that in mind - all of these city named guilds I noticed this season (a) were doing too good for a bunch of random guilds, (b) leaped a lot in the past war (100k or more).

And the top 8 guilds or so - I have no idea how they get so many medals - they either spending real money in thousands or, as you said, exploiting some loophole.
