Interesting idea. I'd suggest that you may need to add higher options for the countries visited badge, I am far from the most widely travelled Flyertalker and have hit the badge limit at 50.

How many free nights you earned this year. I will admit that this was the most difficult badge to gauge. No shade to our anonymous research group, but I would have liked more input on this category specifically. I saw a record of 200 nights earned in a year, which I found pretty insane, so I halved it.

How does Flyer talk know the number of countries visited????
And where did those badges appear from? How does Flyer talk know the number of countries visited????

At first glance I was under the impression it was counting the number of nights in hotel beds per year.
As for explainer, a badge that needs an explained isn’t terribly helpful. How are newbies (the target audience for seeing the badges) going to know what they mean? |
This is cool, but would be nice if the text for everything was a bit more clear / easier to read. Esp. in dark mode, reading "countries" "nights" "airline miles" is just about impossible.

I just want to see what my badges look like - hehehe!

How does one deselect displaying number of years on FlyerTalk? I don't see that at the Badges page.

I am unmoved one way or another. The discussions and information are what keep me here daily.
I would just like my 0.5m airline miles to register! :) |

Some FlyerTalkers are displaying 10, 20, 30 & 40 countries visited.
Once the 100 countries badge is available, perhaps that series of badges should be reprogrammed so that only the highest selected is displayed? |

It would probably be beneficial to put an explainer on the badge page about this. At first glance I was under the impression it was counting the number of nights in hotel beds per year.

That’s actually what I used initially to select my badge since “free” nights made no sense to me as a metric. After the discussion here I opted to remove that particular badge entirely because it’s confusing and useless (IMHO).

Agreed!

It doesn't. I suggest you have a look at this thread:
https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tech...es-launch.html |
Its how many countries in the last year?
Reward nights per year- keeping track of me using my points? I do not even show my hotel programs. Hmmm Is there a reason for these things? Some intern having fun? |
