Just saw your message in chat.  Sorry I wasn't there to read it while you were still around.  Yes, funky things are afoot with the [[Game of Rassilon]]. Please see [[Forum:Game of Rassilon errors]].  Since the code for the game is not accessible at the local level, we just have to wait for Wikia to fix it.  I haven't seen ''exactly'' the error you're describing — i can certainly see how many people have earned a specific badge, and I can look at all my badges — but the Engineering department ''is'' working on the errors in the badge display area of user pages.  It's possible you saw them apply a temporary fix that then got reverted.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 13:30: Tue 25 Sep 2012</span>

:Some parts of what we call locally the "[[Game of Rassilon]]" – but which is known throughout Wikia as "Achievements" — are standard to every Wikia wiki.  That is, there are some badges over which we, locally, have very little control.  One of these "default" badges is the one pertaining to blog posts.  If we could hide it, we ''would'' hide it.  The best we can probably do is just change the text on it so it's clearer that it's unwinnable. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 17:53: Fri 28 Sep 2012</span>

:I suppose I'll return the article to its amazingly stupid spelling. For the record, though, [http://ibiblio.org/ngraham/croatan.mp3 this is the pronunciation] that the University of North Carolina says is currently correct.  And I mean, it's ''their'' state, so surely they "win" over Wikipedia. It feels like we're doing the moral equivalent of calling the article on [[London]], ''Londinium'' — but since this is the only reference to Croatan in the DWU, this is a case of not having clear DWU evidence for the bleedingly obvious. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}} 17:41: Tue 12 Feb 2013</span>
