What about a mini-badge for a super-hour? Players need to score some extremely high number of points from quizzes, games etc. If there's any traction in that idea, what would be a target number for such a badgelet? 3000 points? The 3000 is based on correctly answering all of a 10 question quiz every 3 minutes for that hour. Clearly that will be easy for some but possibly a challenge for many.

I understand that it's supposed to be vague, but are these mini-badges related to playing quizzes from The Amazing Trivia Race or for something else (like the Sprint)?

Whatever they are, like other pond-dwellers of the more avian nature :), these two badgelets are not meant to actively be tried for. Wait till they fall in your lap (or vice versa).

So my idea of playing all the quizzes for the race is a no go? I found a fish quiz and a toad quiz, that ain't the answer.

Not actively try for? Avian pond-dweller badges? So it's like the lucky duck? Great. Just great. And only certain quiz racers might discover it?

I don't mind when the badges are super sadistic, but vague? I don't like vague. ;-)

Will we ever get more information eventually, or only after accidentally winning them? Haha

You will know when the time comes. I hate to say things will only get more confusing and frantic, but knowing our badge-hunters, it's only inevitable.

I will say, however, that you can not get them yet. It will be obvious when you can. Consider their early appearance a sign of amazing and great things to come. You've never seen something quite like it.

There is very little you can do to get yourself closer. Not even I can get them quite yet-- and I'd have them if they were available. wink

The Great Quiz Race should be ready in a week or two. Kyle and Wesley have put lots of work into it. It is inspired by the authoring race, but is its own thing.

Is there a glitch with the Crossworder badge? The Challenge page states that "Reward is automatically given out immediately upon completion", but looking at the list of winners, it seems that it is given out at specified times. I hit the 250 requirement yesterday and thought I would get the badge during the night, but it hasn't shown up yet.

You're right -- it is awarded periodically by the system. The badge will come smile
