Problem with the Best Week Ever IV badge

Issues & Bug Reports

Found 6 posts - Go to Last Post


I did 15K Gamerscore within a week and I didn't get the badge and that made me pretty bummed as I was focused on getting it. Can a moderator help me with this issue?

Edit: A new week started and part of the gamerscore stayed in this new week, it makes me very sad

If I remember correctly, GTN uses your local timezone settings for determining Best Week Ever badges. Make sure you have your region and timezone set properly to match where you are. (I am not sure if GTN adjusts what it considers a "week" though. In the US a 'week' is Sunday - Saturday, but, I know some countries, like France, a 'week' is Monday - Sunday.)
To check your settings, on the bottom far right of any page of GTN, you should see "REGION:" and a country flag and country code. Clicking on that will bring you to the settings page, that will allow you to check/set your options. It is entirely possible you have the correct country, but, incorrect timezone set. So, check all of those options.

I don't think updating the options will automatically fix/award the badge to you, and will still require a mod/admin, but, will be good to ensure it is set properly for future badges and tracking.

I hope some admin can help me with this, as it is one of the rare times that I get more than 15K gamerscore in a week thanks to Eastasiasoft game updates. Thank you for the tips Futiles.
It looks like the site uses Sunday-Saturday for the week. It's possible that it also uses the Central Time zone for the calculations as well, as this is the description for the badge:
Unlock this badge by earning 15,000 Gamerscore in a single week. Weekly progress is reset and badges are awarded each Sunday at 2:03am Central Time (CT).
