XF 2.2 Trophy award using API?

[yar]

Are all trophies strictly "predefined criterias-based" and can't be awarded per user "manually"? (except for building long list of usernames separated by commas under "Username is:" criteria in trophy settings).

Can I create new trophy without any criteria checked under "Award this trophy if ..." and then award if to the user using some API trigger (with superuser key)?

Thanks!
