Axis & Allies .org 2018 Support Drive
Welcome to the 2017 Axis & Allies.org support drive. This support drive will end on December 31, 2017 and the next one will begin in 2018.

I’m a bit confused; could you clarify if this drive is for 2018 or for last year?  If it’s for 2018, this should probably say:

Axis & Allies .org 2018 Support Drive
Welcome to the 2018 Axis & Allies.org support drive. This support drive will end on December 31, 2018 and the next one will begin in 2019.

Correct, I have adjusted the first posting accordingly. Thanks.

Before I pledge for my 2018 Gold badge, I need to know where my past badges are, and where my name is on the list of supporters in years past… (I’ve been pledging gold every year since the support drive began) thanks.

@Panther
Sweet, thanks buddy.

@Panther
Why is 2010 different? (missing 20)

[Panther]

@Young-Grasshopper Some work is still needed. It is on the todo-list :smiley:

@Young-Grasshopper @Panther This was done on purpose. I’m testing something out. Over time the number of badges will become unmanageable to look at and could cause other issues with layout.

I’m considering shortening a several years to the abbreviated year notation like '10 or '11. This is a lot like Board Game Geek. Then on the profile page we’ll have full blown badges/medals which will never be truncated. I’m still debating the years that get truncated but my thought that only active years get the full badge. Active would be the current year and the active year. I’d also want different icons for the active years but that will likely take a some core changes to the NodeBB platform. Another thing I would like (but might require a core change to NodeBB) is for the badge to “expand” when you hover over it.

@Young-Grasshopper @Panther

Another thought is to make the badges from each year a slightly different color so they kinda look like service ribbons …

If I could give them stripes, I would.

[Young Grasshopper]

So I decided to hide all my badges after all… 2018 pledge is coming.

[djensen]

@Young-Grasshopper Just curious, why? Not even customizer?

[Young Grasshopper]

@djensen It’s just my OCD… When the go horizontal like that, they get in the way and mess up the continuity of my beautiful forum threads.

2018 Gold badge purchased… thanks for being so proactive this year David, it really shows.
