A while ago, Livio made it possible for the staff to hand out custom awards. This means a lot of things, including that the old game of "Find Interbot" can resume. Also "Badges" is another name for "Custom Awards". The following custom awards have been added:
| I Found Interbot
The game is simple. The staff members have hidden the phrase "Interbot was is here", in the title of one of the pages around the site. Find the location, post it here, and you'll receive an award! Whenever someone does that, the location will change and the hunt will begin again. Obviously, since Interbot can find Interbot, he is currently the first recipient of the award.
Recipients: Bmwsu, Interbot, Jazz, Krotomo, Quirvy, imtimi, Isa, Yaya, Thomas, soccerboy13542, Rocket Guy2, FlashMarsh, Shos. | | Going For The Record
In order to get this award, you have to stay online for at least 24 hours. This was related to the Neezles Account Takeover, when "a_neezles_a" tried to break the online-time record.
Recipients: Bmwsu, a_neezles_a, jellsprout, soccerboy13542, Thomas, Darvince, Jorster, Teo | | Your Overlord D52
This award is only available if you are actually Dando52.
Recipient: Bmwsu, Dando52 | | My Imagination Is Always Thinking... OF IDEAS!
Based off of an old joke, this award is given to those who suggest an idea that the staff ends up implementing. This includes new awards, so for suggesting this particular award, Yaya is a recipient. As well, FlashMarsh is a recipient for suggesting the entire custom awards system.
Recipients: Bmwsu, Yaya, Thomas, Jazz | | My Imagination Is Always Thinking... OF IDEAS!
Just like the previous one, except for those who care about energy efficiency and the environment.
Recipients: Bmwsu, FlashMarsh, imtimi, Silver, Yimmerly7 | | Ruby The Brave
You get this award for contributing some pretty artwork for potential use in Aeon. This is based off of an old joke from the old forums, in which "Ruby the Brave" was suggested to be Aeon's main character.
Recipients: Bmwsu, aych bee, jellsprout, FlashMarsh, krotomo, Kittikyana, Silver, Dekudude, soccerboy13542, DeathBunni X | | Full of Win!
You get this award for writing music for potential use in Aeon. This is based off the April Fools Day 2010 build of Aeon, and the "full of win" text is a reference to the screen that comes up when you beat a level in the first few Aeon demos.
Recipients: Bmwsu, canadianstickdeath, Dekudude, the_grimace, rosabellis, FlashMarsh, Harumbai, Cedric_09_ | | Close Encounter
To get this award, you have to be seen online at the same time as Haily. Yeah right.
Recipients: Bmwsu, Haily, jazz, kk66464522, canadianstickdeath, Dando, imtimi, Livio, Dekudude, krotomo, GF4, Thomas, DBX, jellsprout, Isa, Cedric_09_, Yaya, Quirvy, Yimmy7, Teo, Jorster, Bang_jan, Buboy24, Silver, Shos | | Beware: Super Stalker
This award was made specifically for a_neezles_a.
Recipients: Bmwsu, a_neezles_a
| | Neopets' Cave of the Week Award
This is awarded to those who win Neopets' Cave of the Week
Recipients: Bmwsu, canadianstickdeath, cheopspyramid, soccerboy13542, krotomo, Dekudude, Quirvy, Isa, Silver, dabigkid, GF4, jorster23, Harumbai, Teo

As previously, feel free to suggest your own ideas for an award, and if yours is accepted, you'll find a shiny one on your look-up. If you can provide an image that's about the same size as our current awards, please submit that as well, for increased chances that the staff will accept your award.

Yes, but if you do plan on doing so, don't be shocked if it fails when someone gives you a 16 minutes suspension.

Jazz, stop hunting for interbot, you've already found it.
But, no, 13542 probably manually added it to his profile description.

So these are given out manually? Or is it eventually going to be implemented so that you get the award as soon as you accomplish whatever it is you need to do for the award?
Anyways, some ideas, if this is the right idea:
"Variety Freak"
-Submit at least 1 level for each game
"Information Kiosk"
-Submit at least 1 guide and have it accepted
"Filming Crew"
-Have at least 5 of your videos uploaded on to the site
"Victory is Mine"
-Place 1st in a competition of any type
"Hogging the Spotlight"
-Place 1st in over 7 competitions of any type
"Background Winner"
-Place 2nd in a competition of any type
"Grade A"
-Have any 1 of your levels rated 9 or higher
"Tough Stuff"
-Have any 1 of your levels rated evil or higher
"Epic"
-Have any 1 of your levels rated 9.5 or higher and 4.5 difficulty or higher
"Truely Epic"
-Have any 1 of your levels rated 9.9 or higher and 4.8 difficulty or higher
"On the Board"
-Have any 1 of your levels be in the top 10 highest rated levels
"Feedback"
-Comment and rate on at least 25 different levels that are not yours
"Highest-Grossing Films of All Time"
-Have any 1 of your videos be in the top 15 highest rated videos

GET BACK ON TOPIC JAZZ!!! btw, this is the custom awards topic by isa. not csd. I think it'd be really cool for an award like:
post 50 posts with at least 1 smiley in each one. post 100 posts with at least 1 smiley in each one. post 200 etc.

What about getting an award for posting a phrase that becomes a part of Interguild History. | | soccerboy13542 |

Anyway goldfun, you're suggesting really small stuff, more like achievements. This makes me wonder if maybe we should have a separate "achievements" system, where instead of you getting a big award, you just have another achievement that shows up in a long list of such accomplishments. Otherwise some of your suggestions would be redundant, like how you'd get a trophy for getting a first place trophy.
Btw, someone mentioned that for some reason the Custom Awards were coming up in the area for Best of 2009 Awards, but if you look closely, that area is labeled "Other Awards" | | Harumbai |

It was me and I just thought that we could seperate them into 2 categories for example look at Yaya's profile... I don't know, it just doesn't seem to fit right to me...

"Ruby the Brave"? Wait a minute, why does that sound familar...? Or is that just a mega typo of Hannah the Brave? | | Isa |
No. I'm an octopus.

I don't want to say anything in case Silver just used some pretty good sarcasm.

This is an excellent idea; little extras such as this are what keeps communities alive. Seeing what you have listed, however, all of your ideas consist of self contributions, self progress, self stupidity (referencing to the 24-hour-waste-of-life award). I'd suggest adding awards for doing something helpful for others, in order to promote general kindness and encouragement to the members throughout the community.
HELPFUL
Helped an Interguild member with a certain problem.
Other things such as huge site contributions should definitely be awarded, too:
GUIDING LIGHT
Wrote a helping guide to the website or a specific game that was used by the Interguild.
Awesome idea, though. I'll be hunting for these on my w--spare time.
By the way, these should be called badges instead of awards. Just sayin'. | | |
