Hard luck, Meathead. I'm like Kyle. I never sleep...

Edit to add -I'm close on Flopsy's heels in the NQG too.

Good grief, it's a full time job to keep up with Terry lately. Not that I'm complaining!

Wesley, not sure about a mega, but I think a regular badge would be a good idea...

It's more difficult than a regular HC champ which is already clearly a Diamond-grade award, so it sounds Mega to me. It's also most likely the highest we'd ever do for GC (the next step up would be a Season winner) But it's your call.

That song and video is desperately ill suited to my mood at the moment...it should have had the people jumping about, tearing out hair and screaming instead. wink

Terry, any chance that a running total can be added to the "Two Years of New" challenge page, to save people from having to go scouring to find out how many they've played?

I don't know about a mega-badge, Wes. There are a few I thought should be mega, and aren't. :P

I haven't gotten immortal nor hardcore.... Now you expect me to do them both at once? wink Too bad I went for immortal this time, not hardcore; otherwise I'd try for both now just cuz. :P

I want to be in the elite club. lol.

Thanks! One more question: Does anyone know when this tally began? I don't think I played only 49 games since it began (although that is possible). I know I haven't played much recently (especially for the months leading up to the Daily Challenges), but I thought I played more than 49 since the game began.


EDIT: Something I didn’t notice until right now was that there is a “games” column with the highest number being 667 (and others close by), so I would imagine, around 667 days ago.

677, I think. Genoveva and a couple others have that many.


I think that tally began when the game became a daily. I also think my 241 seems low, but a long time ago, this was brought up, and the answer was because the tally was reset when the game transitioned to a daily. smile

Yes, as I recall, Barbarini was another that I saw with 677. :P I knew I had seen a few with 677. :P

Mine is weirder. If I were to make a challenge, it would quite possibly be unwinnable.

Wesley, it looks like the HC Immortals are all listed on the Global Stats page except the one ending 2/18/2011. Is there a reason for that?

It's not the only one - it's also missing from one in 2009. Plain oops I guess (the date should also read 2/18/12).

I have compiled a list from the actual standings pages.

I'd vouch for this megabadge...only because I'd already have it. It'd be insane of me to do it again.

Kyle, your next goal is the Ultimate Championship - winning HC and beating the top normal player while doing that. (NOT going to be a badge. Ever.)

Any chance we can do something for a new badge with the Brains we have earned. Last badge is at 2,000 brains. I have over 27,000. My head is starting to hurt. smile

Can there be a mini-badge for getting rid of all your letters in the Word Wizard Gold minigame?

Never managed to do that, I've had twelve letter words before, but none that the game would accept and that includes endings such as -ing and -iest.

I could be wrong but I think what dabomb619 meant was to get rid of all your letters, even if it took two or three words to do it. For example, if you had Head, foot, and hand as your three words.

It's been a year since the Triathlon started.

Will there ever be another badge beyond the Iron Badge/1000 Triathlon points?

Though I would welcome it. smile
