Badge - Challenge... What Challenge?

What challenge?

Not sure which you are referring to, but the challenge badge series are for completing xbox one challenges.

The badge called, "Challenge... What Challenge". For winning the GTN monthly gamerscore competition.

Only you, fsh, porsche and doug have it so far.

There's actually two badges for winning said competitions. I think I'm going have to reinstate these and get these badges back out there for people to win. I know that I'm awarding a badge to the winner of the Epic Challenge that is running right now.

Also if you or anyone else have a great idea for a competition and are willing to stick with said competition to completion then I am willing to maybe award the badge depending on the rules and such.

The honest answer is, there was an "Events" team member on staff, however, the first even just happened to overlap during a period of time when Eric had more important matters to deal with outside of GTN. GTN, and the event specifically, suffered. Event was canceled, and remaining contestants were awarded the badge. There has been no event since. Events staff member is no longer active on the site.

So, unless he is replaced, returns, or otherwise reconfigured, there will be no opportunity to earn this badge.

Nice to see this up and running now. Nice work.

Now to try and win one!

Can't win if they end early.

So stop trying to rain on the parade already...yikes...lol.. You and your mastery of the English language....I'm going to start calling you grumpy gamer...lol.

An event is just anything that happens though right?

Either way, thumbs up for creating a monthly comp we can all get involved in.
