I just noticed that the Spy Tryouts contest is still under "Temporarily Available" on the front, even though it's definately no longer available.

Just wondering but has anyone gotten that 75 quizes taken badge yet? I'm pretty sure I've done all 75 quizes by now.
I'm still one away. Keep putting off the 30 Zombies quiz.

Tourist- You do fairly well in a crisis, but best not to push it.

From this week's quiz.

Thanks for reminding me. That's something I've been needing to do for ages.

I'll be adding all of these badges shortly as well.

How do you get the "Forum Vagabond" badge? It says "Has posted in more than 10 different forums" and Im pretty sure I've done that... Is this just a delay?

Well, according to your post history you've only posted in four different forums [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/posts/Red+Hood?f_sort=forum+asc&f_page=1] (Featured Content, Gaming Discussion, Off-Topic Discussion and The News Room being the four forums you've posted in currently), so that's probably why you're not getting the badge. Simple solution, post in seven more forums.

Bear in mind that a thread is the actual discussion you're posting in, a forum is where you can find the thread. So this thread 'The Escapist Forum Badge Gallery' is in the 'Off-Topic Discussion' forum, just as an example in case you were simply misunderstanding what a forum is.

Thanks for the help, man. I really appreciate it.

Just a quick message to spare you lovely hunters from locating and posting information on badges... We've already come stumbled upon a series of badges most likely related to another "What kind of X are you?" quiz. In this case, X seems to be "Villain". We've also found an unrelated "Beard Badge". We're aware of its purpose but holding back on the details until we're given the go ahead (i.e. as soon as it's confirmed that it's not supposed to be a mystery). The Villain quiz badges will be added once the quiz has been published.

Hunt hard,
Nivag

What quiz do you have to complete for the Personality Core from Portal? It looks cool thats all..
What Villain Are You? [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/quizzes/view/92]

Just fill out the answers like you would expect GLaDOS to fill them out (I found her's to be the easiest to get). If you get a different result first try don't worry as the quiz is re-takable and can award you multiple badges.

- Beard Badge - Only by locating the original can you begin the quest for your own.



Does
count as the original source, or at least inspiration?

Other than that I cannot solve the beard riddle.

Good angle, but I'm afraid it's not the correct one. I don't even know who that is! I'm impressed. But I do have a staff approved hint at hand:

<spoiler=hint>
The significant (original) beard badge you're looking for can be found in its creator's badge list

That's rather vague.

Plenty of people have managed to puzzle it together with that clue. You just need to think about it in the right way. E.g. user's can't create badges, so it's probably a staff member.

If only there was a way I could just get a list of staff members. hmmm.

Why, if only there was such a thing. If only we had some sort of, I don't know, a video [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/the-escapist-presents/1853-Tour-the-Fortress] showing staff member's faces as well as their real names/ usernames to help us work this out. :p

I'm refusing to give any more hints than that. If that doesn't wittle down the possible creators for you I don't know what will.

EDIT: This is why you should check time dates of posts before posting. Take note, people!
