Brushing this thread back off again!

I've talked about my cloth scale armor in other threads around the site. It was a ridiculous amount of labor, but it looks beautiful. I've won awards with it. But it's BARELY two points, and it's entirely up to the field champion's discretion -- my current champion is only giving it one point. :/ The hassle is making me not want to bother making more.

So I'm pondering over how to get something easier to make, provides better protection (as a scout I can wear three points so I'm not even living up to my potential as it is), and is uncontroversial enough that I don't have to worry about getting docked a point.

I can get a few hundred flat washers for fairly cheap... Maybe using those as metal scale armor?
