What's the deal with awards?

Asked by theninth (1638

My details says that I have one award—the Herman Melville. Shouldn’t I have more than just that one? I mean, logically, in order to get five “great answers” I have to have gotten the award for first “great answer” and “wrote first answer”.

Anyhow, there’s a bunch I should have, but don’t. And I like feeling like I accomplished something, even if it’s silly and insignificant. I mean, that’s what they’re there for, right?

They’re broken right now – your awards page doesn’t update for some reason. I’m not sure why or how much work is being put into fixing it, but right now the awards no worky.

I love that this question keeps coming up because I too have worked on an award that I ~~want~~ earned and I WANT IT NOW!! Maybe if we put pressure on the powers that be, the awards thingy will get fixed sooner. They’ve been saying it should be fixed soon. But when is soon? ;..; Crying

…I know they’re supposed to be broken, but I’m not understanding, because I’ve still gotten awards—or I think I have… (I’ve been checking them every now and then since I’ve heard of the bug, although I admit not super-seriously so I could be wrong here) ...?

@DancingMind I think the awards in the red zone (siren song, privateer, admiral, etc…) are not working. I think:\
