Is that your licensed number? And if so, why are you suddenly forgetting the unlicensed games? If you're arguing for a "Licensed minus SE" badge then that should be made clear as well, since many will assume that a complete set minus SE is in the high 700's, not 697 (though I'm thinking you meant 677?). Just saying... 677! I fat fingered the 9! I mean the charm here is completed a set in their region, not completed a licensed set in their region so maybe you are right as well. Counting all unlicensed games never ends though, technically the garbage pail kids I just preordered from iam8bit is unlicensed? Really no one will ever have a complete set!

Well that would be more accurately described as an after market game, though yes, it is technically "unlicensed." I think the assumption with all of the full set badges is that they are for full sets of games released during the original lifespan of the system, though there's a huge can of worms to be opened there with various arguments and positions that have already been discussed ad infinitum in like ten other threads here... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 4,903 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Why did I earn the Subscriber Levels 2, 3 and 4 Baubles and what exactly are they? I don’t see them on the master list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For now I've removed them entirely as the current automated system is a bit buggy, and we're working on a new system which should be much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need people to be able to see how magnanimously charitable I am, right now. I'm paying 5 WHOLE dollars, every single month, to feel smugly superior to others, and I am unable to achieve this unless there is a visible indicator to tell other people how much better I am than they are.

It seemed to indicate a light at the end of the tunnel for non-SE owners, but was never mentioned again, perhaps due to charms being removed/disabled due to the random email bug?

The charms plugin hasn't been updated and so Invision won't let me re-enable it (the last big Invision update changed the PHP version and the plugin dev needs to update the plugin blah blah blah). That said, there is actually a newer and better built-in system that Invision has which I intend to implement instead. It'll just take a little bit of work moving everything over from the old thing to the new thing. It has user rankings, a better system for automation, among other things. You can see an example of the new system I'm planning to turn on here: Noid's Badges (playstationtrophies.org) As you can see, for all intents and purposes, same basic thing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool, thanks for the update regarding the return of charms. That being said, any light you can shed on whatever it was that @FireHazard51 was hint-hinting about?

Thing is, he replied to a post about having a charm for people with the full NES set minus SE, and it was long before charms got disabled, so I'm not seeing the connection there. How would a new charms system "solve" the problem with SE, unless there's some additional plans regarding the charm(s) for said set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
