Yes! :wink::+1:t5: Guys, Edit: The goal is obtained! :partying_face: You may click to see what the link looks like, no need to accept. just click the link, :point_up_2:t5: and accept the invite! Next create your link from a thread, any thread’s topic of choice, with the guidance here, copy the link, and post it in that thread. Simply. We discovered we don’t need to do it as a PM. Go secure your place on the podium!

Note: It takes a day at least, for the bot to award these badges, considering it’s been on vacation, in this department, on this side of the fence. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Tagging a few fans, but anyone can accept the invitation. 😉 This we found out later. 😂🤭 you can even accept your own invite link, as feyfayer later found out. Nice!

Not trying to be a damp squib, but isn’t this Campaigner badge relying on the fact that 3 people accept an invite AND subsequently gain the Basic badge, since we’re inviting each other who already have the basic badge, I don’t see how we can do the required activities to meet the criteria to getting the basic badge in order for the person who sent out the invites to get the Campaigner badge. :thinking:

And!

Nah. Never. Your point seemed to make sense, and it sounded logical, too. I was a lil bumped last night over the “perceived method” (not over your comment). But, it worked! I don’t know how such tabulations are done, but it doesn’t bother me at all now lol. I.GOT.MY.BADGES! :kissing_closed_eyes: Err… still pending one “Champion” though… haha

Many thanks to all of you who were game to accept the invitations :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :heart_eyes:

Badge bot just got played? :robot:
I take it no one had to go through all that Basic/Member level palaver? Devious!

Listen, I hear the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is going to ship a whole load of gold bars… :stuck_out_tongue:

Just give us enough time to devise a plan.

Could this be our next challenge? That is, before going for the gold bars…

What do you think, how does this one work?

That one really can’t be gotten

So unfair! They’re teasing us. Same as with 650 likes x 5 days badge :grin:

Same as the Leader badge. Unlikely to get that one unless selected

Well I did choose 3 basic members, only one accepted invite, meaning I needed 3 to obtain the Campaigner badge… I thought they would have been interested in some linked topics…

Perhaps they even think it’s a spam… who knows…
