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.

I'm not sure what's going on with Interbot. We were gonna let the person who found it pick the new place (and we weren't exactly expecting anybody to find it), but now we have to think of a new place ourselves again, lol. I'll bring it up in the Staff Forum.
That's a good question DBX. We'll need an image and a caption, hopefully something related to interguild history in some way.
Oh, and I think I should mention that the COTW award is officially our first retired award. Dando52 award is still available if you happen to be dando52, but since there's only one dando52, that's unlikely. | | imtimi |

...What? I never spoiled its location. When I checked, InterBot wasn't on that page anymore, so I assumed someone found it. | | Livio |

I feel like the music award should be an invisible rick-roll, in reference to all those times when you load a page on the Interguild, hear that you're getting rickrolled but don't know where it's coming from | | canadianstickdeath |

Hmm..... The censor is still in place, but it doesn't appear to be working. It could be because of recent changes to the way censors work. That page's title has a comma, see...
Or maybe they just stopped affecting titles for some reason: InterBot's Blog | | Livio |

Oh I see what happened. I changed the censor page a while back to be more flexible by getting rid of automatically added backslashes. But this is weird; special regular expression characters such as brackets [ ] can get escaped by backslashes but apostrophe's can't? Or, technically they are escaped in that they don't cause php errors, but they don't match with the searched subject either.
But because "InterBot's Blog" was no longer being affected by the censors, imtimi thought we took it down because someone found it. | | Thomas |

alright, fixed. It turns out something I added for the new level galleries was messed up and was interfering with the censors getting parsed in page titles.
So csd was right. I should've quoted his post.... | | jellsprout |

Well, this is the closest thing to Staff-dom I got, so I'm enjoying it (until someone finds him).

Some neglectful staff member forgot to remove the "Interbot was is here" from that page when its location was revealed. And since you learned that location from the big conversation we had about it on this page, you didn't truly "find" it. Keine Trophäe für dich! | | Thomas |

How can interbot have two homes? | | Livio |

don't worry Yaya, I don't intend to cheat on the interbot search by looking up where he is.
and Thomas brings up an interesting idea. We could place him in one of the previous locations and no one would ever suspect it. | | DeathBunni X |
