The Escapist Forum Badge Gallery - [ WE HAVE MOVED ]

[NeedAUserName]

New one here...

X Factor: Has added their Xbox Live gamertag to their profile.

That one was a surprise for me, I wonder if they will do a PSN and Wii one also.

Without wanting to sound like a badge whore, they really should for fairness' sake.

Edit: Just got the PS3 one.

 

[Frank_Sinatra_]

Well here is the PS3 one.

Play(Station)er
Has added a PSN account to their profile.

 

[smithy1234]

Steam badge as well



Steamy!
Has linked their Steam account on their profile.

Hey guys, thanks for the effort of posting the account linking badges. You guys should come join the user-group!

I recently linked my Steam Account and my Xbox Live account to my Oracle account, but for some reason, I haven't gotten the badges yet. Should I wait until tomorrow to contact someone?

Badges are usually given out the day after in the morning (US Time) if not sooner. Wait until then. Also, according to Virgil; it can take about a day for the Steam account to be linked and the Steam panel to be added to the profile (and thus the same length of time for you to get the badge). Feel free to PM a mod tomorrow though if you don't have the badge by then as they may be able to answer your questions.

Yeah, I reckon you'll have them within the next couple of hours (as it's somewhere around midnight GMT that they're updated). I've never heard of a case where an automatically awarded badge hasn't worked so I think you'll get it soon.

 

[IrrelevantTangent]

Just wanted to point this out; apologies in advance if this seems like necroing, but while looking in the Quizzes section, I happened to notice that right now, there are 17 quizzes.

As of right now, there are two badges related to quizzes, Cinco de Quizo (take 5 quizzes) and Decathaquiz (take 10 quizzes). This is just speculation, but I'd be willing to bet that as soon as three more are added, there'll be a badge for taking 20 quizzes.

It may seem unlikely that they'd make yet another quiz-related badge, but I also noticed that the Cinco de Quizo badge has a bronze-ish color, whereas Decathaquiz is silver-ish. Perhaps a 'gold' one is coming?

Based on this, I think it's pretty likely we'll see a new badge soon, recieved for taking 20 quizzes, that will have a gold-ish color. Hope this helps.

 

[Nivag the Owl]

Oh yeah, without a doubt, they'll definitely make a gold one. Don't know what they'll do after that though. Maybe they'll even bother with platinum this time but that's doubtful. They'll want to do something to keep people interested in the quizzes though.

Does anyone know how to get the RP Digest badge, On A Role, exactly? Do you have to comment in the thread related to the RP digest, or do you have to do something else entirely?

You basically have to start your own successful Forum RP Game and then ask to have it kept track of in RP Digest.

1. Email a summary of no more than 100 words to rpdigest@escapistmag.com. They can be in-character or OOC, however you like. Have fun with it!

2. Only one summary per RP, please! Talk amongst yourselves to decide who'll submit it.

3. Be sure to include the name of the RP and who's running it. A link to it would also be much appreciated. If we can't figure out what you're talking about, we can't run your summary!

4. Summaries must be received by Sunday evening, as they'll be assembled first thing Monday morning. If it's not in my inbox when I walk in Monday, it will not be included. No exceptions. I'll leave that up to you to decide how that affects you timezone-wise. Remember, this will be a weekly publication, so if you miss one week, you can always just include more info in your summary the following week.

Do all of that and it gets published and you get the badge.

 

[IrrelevantTangent]

Thanks for the info!

Just as a minor point for the notes section, like having a thread locked, recieving an official warning [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.112832?page=6#2379222] from a mod will not effect your ability to recieve the Matrix badges either, although they will still be listed in your ban history. You may want to add that to the notes section at some point.

Cool. Added. I do need to add some more stuff to the section so if you have any more ideas, please shout.

You should really put the Unforgotten Realms badges in the expired quizzes section. I took that test not too long ago and didn't get rewarded.

Oh, that's interesting. I'm gonna get a friend to take the quiz as well just to make sure it's not a one off, and then I'll move it.

Cheers.

If any of our hunters could help me track down these new user-group badges I would be very geatful
