Subject: What badges have you won recently?

Posted by: callie_ross
Date: Dec 12 12

I felt the need to make this thread because we all love winning badges, especially the difficult ones, am I right?! List the most recent badges you have won & feel free to brag if you would like! :)

MrNobody, the Epic Red entails beating a specific previous score, not necessarily your best score ever. Better luck next time with the Everything challenge.

Thanks. I guess there's always next time! I don't always do quite as well in the daily games (like World Quiz), so for a long time it looked like everything was going to fall into place, then I goofed up.

And yes, I recall you'd mentioned (when I asked, actually) about the Red Flag in another thread. I have a single red already, but don't know how the qualifying criteria will change when it someday turns up double.

(Who knows, maybe by then it'll have been so long that I won't have a lot of "recent" high scores)

Congrats MiraJane, a lovely addition to your gallery of success, but how do you know that? That seems like the top-secrety kind of stuff that might be useful to know ~ D.

Yes, If they can use melty, I can use secrety, so there :)

Unless I misread your question, I think the sole requirement is to have 730 plays of the New Questions Game.

Sounds arduous, though. I dislike the game, so often I just skip it. Two years is quite some dedication. Kind of like the 10/20/30/40,000-questions awards for Monster. (I hope FT's still AROUND by the time I get near those!)

How do you know how many plays of the New Question Game that you have already completed. Congrats on the Crossword Author badge, I haven't even looked at that one yet ~ D.

to find out how many New Question games you've played, go to the page to begin the game.

You see this:

Today: Qn Set:
All
   
Monthly: Me - My Team - Winners
Submit Questions for Future Games (and earn FT pts!)
Top Rated Recent Questions
Top Cumulative Scores
   
Team vs Team: Monthly Ranks - Yesterday ( Ranks - Top 200 - My Team)
A total of 6 Challenges can be completed here...



In the Monthly section, look at the bottom link, Top Cumulative Scores. How many questions you've answered and games you've played is there.

I knew the time I'd get the badge by looking at the A total of 6 Challenges can be completed here ... link. I saw what time the badge is awarded.

I just got Master Masher at last! I tried for it when it first came out, but people kept on "stealing" categories from me as fast as I could win them. The mash games are a little less busy these days I think. Also, I have got faster due to all the duelling practice.

Congrats, emiloony! That mini (which should really be a full badge if you ask me) is quite a feat—and not often awarded!

For myself, I finally have The Everything Challenge. I am frankly thrilled.

On the other forums, Terry quipped about the badge, "Wesley made that badge.. its perty." Heh heh. I agree!

Wow, that's a real achievement! I'm lucky if I even get around to playing everything in one day, never mind well enough to earn a badge for it.

Uh, I don't know if this is the right thread (or even the right discussion board -- if this belongs in Feedback, tell me) ... but I've got a question. I just earned the Monthly Winner for Fill Me In, and part of the "victory text" includes a cryptic "Monthly Winner riddle" line and also says, "Collect all six, then combine for your ultimate magic reward!"

Anyone care to clarify what this is about? I know there's a big badge for getting 7 of the Monthly Winner ones, but...

Smartest of the Smart: Awarded to the player in the hourly difficult game with the highest score across ALL divisions, in an hour where at least 100 people play.

No one was more surprised than I...

Ooh, I am envious! I came so close to that badge yesterday, but only 92 people had played. (sob)

I know the feeling. Of thinking you'd earn a badge, only to have not enough players to qualify the win. Happened to me just recently on Gold Madness. My playing in the late-night hours means fewer players, of course -- good if you're going for a first-place win (like in the Expert Game), but not so good if you're aiming for a badge that requires X number of competitors.

Not a badge but equally satisfying...I just correctly guessed my 300th word in The Crystal Ball game.
(it was "tinkering")
It's especially meaningful to me because my friend, the late great Hurricane Bill, the first player to get over FIFTEEN HUNDRED correct words played his last year on the team I captained (The Sports Fanatics).
We had a standing joke that if I got 300, it would be like his getting 1555...not even close, but he predicted I would do it.

Well done on 300 words, especially as it's such a significant personal milestone for you. I don't have the patience and application to get anywhere with that game!

On the topic of recently won badges, I finally got a tie in the duel!

Well, the system hasn't formally awarded it yet, but I've finally earned the Crossword Crusher. It was a real slog.

Well done! I am slowly working my way through some crosswords, I think it will be a few years before I get any of the badges!
