Hello everyone!
Today, Terry posted that the badge will be retired soon. What are your thoughts?
I'm posting like crazy on the regional boards over here!

I am curious if the Global Challenge : My Stats : My Neighborhood : Local Messages will close also? Or, will just the Terry Fun Facts thread be closed? Will a regional Chatboard (broken down by some regional criteria) begin here to take its place? Loss of regional distinctions among us may bring us closer together around the world and end some of the intercountry rivalries, one would hope looking for a silver lining in this. Reply #1.

I'd better get moving on completing the requirements as I've already posted quite a few. Reply #4. Apr 08 13, 1:04 AM |

Remember that only posts to official boards started by Terry count toward the badge, and they must be true facts that aren't already there. Reply #5. Apr 08 13, 6:13 AM |

Go to the Challenges Home page : Emerald Cave (near the bottom of the cave list) : Fun Facts : Try here (in the description box bottom area) : list of regions Terry broke the world into (http://www.funtrivia.com/theworld.cfm) : in the region description box there is a link to Message Boards) : List of threads for that area : the one "Started By" Terry Reply #7.

Is there a way to access these boards through the main FunTrvivia page (or in other words, without having a link provided to us)? I already have the badge, but I'd still like to know. Reply #8. Apr 08 13, 8:36 AM |

I don't think there is one a direct link in the main page, but you can use the dropdown menus at the top to go. It's 'Me - My Region - The World'. Reply #9. Apr 08 13, 8:46 AM |

I sometimes end up on a tangent when I'm double checking a fact before posting so it's taking longer than I thought it would Reply #12. Apr 19 13, 12:07 AM |

I got this a long time ago. It only took me a week -- it's not that hard. Looking over the winners list, it's funny seeing the recent rush of winners, whereas before the announcement nobody had picked it up in over 3 months. Bwahaha. Reply #13. Apr 19 13, 7:00 PM |

It's unfortunate that the retirement of the Fun Facts Badge is apparently also the retirement of the regional boards. Reply #15. Apr 21 13, 6:01 PM |

When the class message boards were closed we all moved to my regional board so we could carry on meeting at the virtual Bar & Grille founded by jimbob55. No one from the region joined in so it was a bit surreal having people from the USA, Australia and various parts of the UK dropping in. Now it has all gone because someone made the decision that it should be discontinued. What about asking the members of FT once in a while. Further more, what are Joe and his wife who ran the place going to do now? Reply #18. Apr 23 13, 3:43 AM |

Made it with two hours to go. Had fun getting it and learnt a bit about stuff I'd otherwise never have bothered with. Shame about the regional boards as it was alwsys good to meet up with others from the same place. Reply #19. Apr 23 13, 11:49 AM |
