I've won four battles in row, but I still haven't gotten the resilient badge yet. Makes me sad. 
I'm really liking the game though. I can't wait to see all the badges we haven't gotten to yet.

Man, I need a bloody break. Hunting down Genre Wars badges, having the red faction badge handed out, and now I wake up to a fallout 3 contest. It's like discount badge warehouse.Inverse Skies said:
EDIT: Not to mention that I also wanted to PLAY genre wars and I awesomely decided to create the "Arrr, we're PIRATES" thread and keep track of everybody who's a pirate.
Nope. It's pretty much just me. A few other Escapists inform me as soon as they've seen something new though, which is nice. Also, doesn't look like there's a badge for that Fallout 3 contest. Shame. Would have been the first game badge that I actually likeInverse Skies said:
Wow, I have even more respect for the effort you've put in here now. I'd always assumed the staff had helped you out - let you know what badges were coming out and stuff. It seems odd that they don't... In that case well done on keeping everything up to date... that sounds like a nightmare.Nivag said:Nope. It's pretty much just me.

Haha, thanks. Some of the mods do help me out but no more/less than other users. It's not something I can rely on the get the info. It's not as bad as I'm making it sound anyways. Just alot of work last night.Inverse Skies said:Wow, I have even more respect for the effort you've put in here now.

Christ. You do a lotta work around here, and I respect you all the more now that I know that you were doing this without staff assistance.Nivag said:Nope. It's pretty much just me.

Lol, a lot of other people are now sympathetic to your plight now we've uncovered that info! I'll help out too if you'd like, considering you put so much effort into this thread.Nivag said:
Of course not! If we were going to do that, I'd just spend 10 minutes and write a page that listed all the badges straight from our database and save everyone the trouble. It's not like the interface the staff use to add/edit the badges doesn't already do that.Inverse Skies said:
But if we start feeding out that info, there's no mystery left. Hunting them down and discovering new ones wouldn't mean anything if you know you've got a full list. Less mojo, less fun. So, while we're not going to discourage you guys from making a list yourselves, don't expect to get the clues from us
Ahh is that the reason why? Wait does that mean you deliberately made no original database of them in order to encourage users to seek badges out? Clever... Now Nivag has a list but still has to rely on the community to keep it ticking over... Ok that's fair enough, I suppose the fun of working out what every badge is makes up for the effort of tracking them all down.Virgil said:Of course not!

Yup. I also feel that the mystery isn't ruined, because it's not like you have use this topic. Anyone that wants it can use it. There's still a lot of mystery in the Genre Wars anyway as it's been made clear there's a substantially large set of badges. Makes me wonder weather or not we've only just scraped the surface.
A suggestion: How about a titles section (i.e. Anonymous Source, Infamous Scribbler, Gone Gonzo, Master Archivist and the special ones that only one person has)?
Do you know why some people like NewClassic have that one special title? Or is that one of those Escapist mysteries I'm just going to have to figure out for myself.Johnn Johnston said:
Questions like this are why I proposed such a section; if it's NewClassic with the 'Vault Legend' title, that's because he won the Fallout 3 review contest.Inverse Skies said:
Ok... makes sense. So you have to achieve something? What about Decoy Doctorpus or JimmyJames? (I think thats his name anyway)...Johnn Johnston said:
JimmyJames, 'The Man So Nice They Named Him Twice' won a contest, and I think Decoy Doctorpus, King of the Yetis, did too. I also know that Gigantor is 'Genetically Different'.Inverse Skies said:
