I gotta get all these virtual badges made into small enamel pins so I can decorate my baseball cap with them. Bling makes me sing. Maybe I can print them as stickers for my toolbox. :-)

This was a fun one to setup and execute.

Working with the element14 Community content management system (Jive) has its nuances at the best of times, but finally being able to identify and reward for creating RoadTest Reviews was one thing I'm glad I managed to pin down.

Thanks to the way gamification works, and a bit of Python, I was able to grab the list of userIDs which Dan and Randy confirmed and threw my way, and were able to retro-actively award the badge! It was kinda disappointing to see that some amount of people who gained the badge are no longer regularly active on the website, but still it was awarded none the less.

While this is a badge you'll only receive once, you'll still be awarded a RoadTest Review badge for every Review you post to the site. We decided we wanted to especially reward those who had been consistent and show that managing to do at least three is important.

We can get only one of this badge or for every 3 completed roadtests we get one?
