Woot, got a shiny new silver Story-Id badge. ;)

Make the button, then make it only award a cheater hat.
Jan 9, 2017 18:37
I kinda lucked out when I got it, it was a basically fine question that got downvoted because there was some profanity at first and people incorrectly thought it was a dupe... (because of that I also got Hero of Questions on it).
Jan 9, 2017 18:36
Err, 17
Jan 9, 2017 18:35
Wow, only 15 people got Maverick?
Jan 6, 2017 22:00
Yay, I got a lifesaver.
Jan 6, 2017 18:00
@Jedi I've only been here something like 7 months, so most of my comments were less than 6. Maybe there's a recent cutoff (like before winter break), but it can't be that recent.
Jan 6, 2017 17:23
I think it's just deleting 8 upvoted comments (possibly has to be your own, that's how I got it by deleting old comments that got 1 upvote but weren't really relevant anymore anyway).
Jan 6, 2017 17:09
Nice use of the trendsetter hat, btw.
Jan 6, 2017 15:59
May just need at least one of each?
Jan 6, 2017 15:59
I think mine was I-e, I-e, R-e, I-e, R-e.
Jan 5, 2017 19:08
I didn't skip any edits and I got it. Someone recently suggested that it might be 5 of some combination of improve/edit reject/edits in one day, and that tracks with my activity when I got it.

So you could upvote the question, but it wouldn't help.
Jan 5, 2017 17:13
(Your own answer has to also get +5)
Jan 5, 2017 17:13
@PaulWhite Yeah, but Maverick is answering somebody else's -3 question, which goes to +3 after you answer.
Jan 5, 2017 16:18
I'm currently doing a bunch of fruitless searches to try to answer my own story-identification question on scifi from a few days ago.
Jan 5, 2017 16:14
Aye, there's the rub.
Jan 5, 2017 16:12
Seems like you could get it on many different sites.
Jan 5, 2017 16:02
I wasn't here last year.
Jan 5, 2017 16:01
+4, I mean
Jan 5, 2017 16:01
Yup, that seems to be the case, just after the one in question hit 4 votes, it kicked in.
Jan 5, 2017 15:46
I'm guessing on Maverick your own upvote doesn't count (that is, if the question's gone from -3 to +3, but one of those + was your own upvote after posting your answer)?
Jan 1, 2017 04:02
No clearly they said they weren't.
Dec 31, 2016 19:41
Had one improve edit earlier in the day
Dec 31, 2016 19:41
In my case I got the hat after two of each improve/reject-and-edit in a row.
Dec 31, 2016 19:40
Might be an unbroken series of improve/rejectand edits?
Dec 31, 2016 19:21
Congrats
Dec 31, 2016 19:07
golf clap I hope.
Dec 31, 2016 17:45
Did one more Improve 16 hours ago with a few Approves in between it.
Dec 31, 2016 17:44
Also the last 4 before I got it were (in order starting from most recent), Improve, RejectEdit, Improve, RejectEdit
Dec 31, 2016 17:41
And also no plain Rejects
Dec 31, 2016 17:41
Yeah, my last skip was Dec 4
Dec 31, 2016 17:41
Ah, there we go.
Dec 31, 2016 17:39
I don't even see that button, maybe I'm looking at the wrong review queue
Dec 31, 2016 17:39
The clue was 5, only 2 matter, so my guess is you have to have 5 from "Reject and Edit" or "Improve and Edit" (possibly including one of each type).
Dec 31, 2016 17:38
Yeah, confirmed, no skips for They live (at least, assuming skips show up on the review queue)
Dec 31, 2016 17:35
@RezaAghaei That's what I did and I got it.
Dec 31, 2016 17:35
(reject was going to be my next test but it popped up before)
Dec 31, 2016 17:34
I can't count how many times I did just approve, don't think I skipped or rejected once in the WB period
Dec 31, 2016 17:34
Best guess? "Improve and Edit" 3 times, "Reject and Edit" twice.
Dec 31, 2016 17:32
Just got They Live
Dec 31, 2016 02:08
Or rather, as long as it's your share LINK, but it doesn't have to be to your question or answer.
Dec 31, 2016 02:07
I believe it's anyone, but I'm not sure.
Dec 30, 2016 21:53
@TrojanByAccident All the ones I edited were from about the same timeframe, pretty sure it was more than 5 but I could be mistaken.
Dec 30, 2016 21:53
woops

Sept of '15. Oh, it should be noted I edited both the answer and the question of that one.

Remember, if you see any 2016 calendars from this point on, learn from horror movies: stab it mercilessly just to make sure the monster's dead!
