🏅 Axis & Allies .org 2018 Support Drive

[Young Grasshopper]

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)

@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.

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.

@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.

@djensen Thanks for everything you do for this community!

[djensen]

@vodot @Young-Grasshopper And thank you guys for your support and contributions to the community!

[djensen]

We have a new record for patron dollars! Thanks everybody, only about $300 until we meet the new goal.

We’re actually about 11 people from breaking our record of 90 different patrons, which happened in 2016. The 89 number above is the number of contributions not unique contributions.

I would like to donate for 2019, but can’t seem to find the donation button.

@MrRoboto

I think it will be re-enabled as soon as @djensen will start the 2019 Support Drive.

[djensen]

Given this is the second request, I will do it very soon. Almost certainly this evening.
