Three hours ago, I finally got around to finishing last quiz for the Level 25 Challenge Box Office Hits. The following wonderful text appeared at the bottom of the list of quizzes:


Completed 20 of 20 quizzes.
You must complete 0 more to complete this challenge.

Challenge Status: Complete! Challenge finished and mini-badge awarded!


Except ..... Except no badge has been awarded. The Challenge text has just changed to the congratulatory text. It actually appeared when I started typing this message. I am not listed among the list of winners either.

Yes, I've checked the times this badge has been awarded to others. It isn't awarded at a certain time during the day. I've also played two hourly games since completing the quizzes to try and give the server the nudge to award the badge.

I know, this post probably should have gone in "Minor Issues". However, I'm wondering if maybe the latest upgrades might have been the source of this flub.

Yes, I do need stinking badges wink

The badge is in your profile, Mira. Glitch in adding you to the list of winners?

Could this have anything to do with the clock going kerplooey in Obscurity? I know they are not directly related..I am just wondering if the same thing might have hit here and backdated your badge winning timestamp and thus deposited you somewhere in the distant past on the winners list and thus outside of the "last 100 winners" displayed there.

Edit Reason: my new years resolution is going to be no more typos..and I am doing warmup exercises :p

Wow. I never thought to check my profile for the badge! blush Thank you, CmdrK. I was looking for ward to the mini thril of getting the notification but I guess that's not going to happen. Ah, well. Thank you for checking the obvious place for my lost badge.

The badge log shows that you were awarded this badge on Apr 01 at 12:59 PM !

That is why you got no badge award message... you had it awarded quite some time ago.

No wonder it didn't send the message blush
Odd though, I only finished the last quiz today.
