That announcement is not on thenaf.net yet.
Who do I poke for my virtual badge? (I can guess why it's not appeared, probably due to my Amazon games. It's 2. However I achieved the 24 before the 3 game minimum was introduced and those who did that were told we can keep our 24 status :) . Is the virtual badge automatically applied?)

You can poke me, lunchmoney. I will have a look.

The rules implemented are:


- To earn a 24 patch, a member needs to have played 3 games with each of the ‘original 24 teams’. So that’s the GW 23 plus Slann.

- To earn the additional Brets and DoK badges, it’s 3 games in each case. These can only be earned after the 24.

- Before 1 Jan. 2019, 3 games of any variant except Online counted.

- After 1 Jan. 2019, Deathbowl games counted double, and all of the Sevens variants (Sevens, Streetbowl, Death 7s, Dungeon 7s... think that’s it) as 0.5 games. Online still does not count.

- Old World or any other new race doesn’t count at all at this time. In future, I guess we could make an additional icon because we aren’t giving out physical badges any more and this is ‘easy’, but this is yet to be discussed.

I've been awarded a 24-ish badge despite having only used 2 races! Stretching the 'ish' to its limits there!

Nuh-uh! It's mine now. I'm going to lick it so you can't have it back!

EDIT: It appears that literally everyone has one. That's a lot of licking I need to do!

That was embarrassing. Order has been restoredish now.

In related news. There will be a permanent fix for anyone that received the 24-patch before the rule of three games was properly established.
