Sweet! That works even better than I am used to. Thanks!
New badge proposal
-
LH and YG are right. I’d feel bad getting the badge over a lot of others. I think that the badge should be for those who do something to make the game better whether by making maps, cards, painting, room/table building, modding etc. It’s something that should go to those passionate about the game and inspires
That being said this was YG’s idea. I don’t want to over-step or anything like that, but I think the badge should say “ESPIRIT DE CORPS” if possible. I don’t know but there’s a lot of guys that deserve it. I really think there’s a lot of people on here that are doing things out of pure love of the game.

Koba http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=28323.msg1006390#msg1006390I know Koba has been very involved in the Global War 1939 game, but he has also done some very good painting too. The first two guys don’t have a ton of posts, but they have done good work from what I can tell.
That would be another point to consider… do we give this to anyone and everyone who tries their hand at painting, or does the painting have to be pretty good, or should they also be an established member (one who has spent some time) on the forums…?
Not to disregard others who mod sculpts, boards/cards or entire rooms, because they absolutely deserve inclusion in this, but painting is the most accessible and probably most common customization that people undertake.
I do not wish to exclude anyone who deserves the badge, I am not even sure I have done enough to deserve it myself, but if it is distributed on a whim, it might become so popular as to be meaningless. But if IL is the sole distributor then that places a limit on who and how, which is good enough for me. I trust IL’s judgement in this area.
I will closely scrutinize the posts of the listed individuals and make a decision. Basically, progress in this area is built upon the backs of others and those who took upon themselves the inspiration of previous members and created something beyond….gets due consideration.
I did say about 15 of you initially would get this badge. I will make one remark that Game Anderson, Game Master is a long time creator of many house rules and some of you may wonder why he was selected as he was an older poster who left us a few years ago ( hopefully he will return in full force).
Customizer badge is for anyone who has displayed a long term History of upgrading the games with maps, player aids, painting of the pieces, furniture making, and house rules. These improve the game for everyone because now you got more than a game…this is what you invest your time in pouring hours and hours into your work and showing others so that they may benefit too.
It is a badge of total Honor and you should be proud to have it. I do not expect more than a total of 20-24 will get this badge. It is exclusive and it should be.
I must add Oztea to the list BTW. Panzerpainter who only seems to do AAM should get consideration ( even if AAM is NOT AA). This site does support AAM. The software pioneers will get consideration as well.

Veqryn MUST be on this list for TripleA.
MUST.
-
yes correct Veqryn will be added

IL, I understand the idea behind monitoring post history, but I’m now regretting removing many of my old topics (lol) like….a You-Tube video featuring my custom table, my Delta+1 house rule thread, and my Cliffside Bunker invites. Fortunately, you have been around long enough to have seen those efforts, and I know I have the main ingredient in this badge recipe… which is passion.
That said… I would prefer to wait until after my latest table modifications are finished, and my game room decorated before I get the honor. As you know, I have been working very hard on a new map, my own global NO cards, my game room renovations, and my relationship with the FMGC weekend… which will all be unveiled in due time.
As much as I am motivated to get everything done for my group of players, and the community members that I am housing in September during the convention, it would be great to feel the extra push of posting my work faster if I knew there were a “Customizer” badge at the end of the road.
I guess what I’m saying is… could you please not give me a badge until I show my latest work. Cheers.

yea sure. I’m putting it back in the box…

I’ve spilt beer on that table.
Just to leave the Russians with the impression I was getting sloppy. It’s a pretty impressive war room!

That table was a rough version compared to the latest I’ve built since. After playing a while with sticky Brits, I finally broke down and soaked them all in soap water…. LMFAO.

So I have spent time and money building a really sick A&A custom game table for my friends and I have presented it beautifully in a thread with, pictures and youtube video. So there’s just one question… WHERE’S MY BADGE B***H (LOL)

Can anyone other than DJen make this happen, I mean we already have his approval to move forward.
-
Thankyou Djensen for badge.
-
Can somebody send me the link to the profile for “Me”? I’m not going to look through 44 pages of search results.

Yeah thanks DJensen (and all others involved)! This is awesome. 8-)

No humility required anymore, I have had my new customizations posted for some time now…

Many thanks from me too. The half-track was a good choice as the badge emblem.
