You have reached Titan level, what badge do you realistically believe you will never have obtained by then?
If you manage to hang around until you earn your Titan badge what other badge would you figure never to achieve?
These do not count
Pilgrim, Old-timer, Robot Crush, Perfecto-fish, Cake in the Frizzer, Feeding Frenzy, and Guacamole
I would bet my dollars to anyone’s donuts that I could hang around to get double Titan and will not achieve Jules Verne, Sunken Treasure, or Sea-Cheetah. Which ones are you sure you will never, ever see?

Why do you rule out those specific ones? I’m pretty sure the only one I’ll never get is Old-timer. I might not ever get a Perfecto-fish (none yet), but I wouldn’t rule it out.
@augustlan You never get Perfecto-fish because you’re perfect. :)
I’d love to know the secret of Old-Timer.
Robot Crush? meh, don’t care.
What is Titan level? Is that 40k?
I’ll never get those link your Facebook or IM account ones. I’ve TRIED linking the Facebook one…but how the fuck do you do it? I can’t figure it out. Also, what’s IM?
Also, whatever award you get for not swearing, forget me. And there HAS to be one, since they’re sea themed, and sea means fuckin’ pirates. They swear. Like me. I’m a pirate. And I steal all your souls.
@Symbeline Click on ‘my account’, then ‘facebook account’ (under ‘extras’). Then enter the URL for your FB profile page. Oh, and IM is for instant messaging (you could be notified by IM about PMs or questions for you, etc.), but I don’t think it works right now.
I won’t be getting an Eeee eeee eeeee or a Plank Walker, I’d have to link to an IM or Facebook account because I’m just not going to do that, I don’t do no stinkin’ linking’. Nope, not gonna do it. I won’t be getting an Autobiographer because I’m not going to fill out my profile text fields. At first I didn’t to it because I was lazy and didn’t feel like it and over time I have become more and more obstinate and contrary when it comes to filling out my profile fields. So I’m not going to get that one either. I do have two each, Jules Verne (both of which I believe are legitimate, not from lurve parties) and Sea Cheetahs.
I have a rather embarrassing number of Perfecto-fish, being both prone to mistakes, misspellings and typos, and being an obsessive tweaker.
But … my Fluther Holy Grail? The Oliver Twist!
That’s a tough one, dammit, but, as God is my witness, as God is my witness they’re not going to lick me. I’m going to live through this and when it’s all over, I’ll have an Oliver Twist. So will all of my folk. If I have to lie, steal, cheat or kill. As God is my witness, I’ll have an Oliver Twist!
@lillycoyote God blessed fecal matter. (yall go and tell me I just fucking ’‘swear’’.) Give me permission to gank that pic and use it as an avatar?
@lillycoyote You place an Oliver Twist above a Jules Verne? You can luck into an Oliver Twist, you have to be anointed to get a Jules Vern, you can just be at the right place at the right time.
@Symbeline That’s Scarlett O’Hara! (actually it’s, of course, Vivien Leigh)! When she shakes her angry fists at the sky, she belongs to all of us.
@Hypocrisy_Central I have two, legitimate I believe, Jules Vernes. But the Oliver Twist? I don’t have one, not a single one and the longer it continues to elude me, the more desperately I want one. Except when I forget all about it, and that’s most of the time, and then I really don’t care, but you asked the question and it’s opened up that wound, that yearning, that lust, for the Oliver Twist all over again.
@lillycoyote I’m too drunk to understand anything you just said, but I do know I love the Gone with the Wind book, and whoever that picture is of, their soul belongs to me now. :)
I’m not good at getting awards (unless they are ones like “sent 50 messages”. I will probably never get the cake in the frizzer thing or the robot crush one. No idea what the hell you have to do to get them.
@lillycoyote Trade you my Oliver Twist for one Jules Vernes, 4 Gold Ingots, or two Sunken Treasures….
I can’t get that curly hair dark red sky avatar to work…the hell? Everything in my personally selected avatars work but that, wassa deal?
@Symbeline LOL. I loved the book too. There’s film version of Gone With The Wind too now. It’s actually been out for a while and it’s pretty good. You might want to check it out if you liked the book. :-)
The avatar won’t upload? The file may be too big. I’ve found that fluther doesn’t like image files of more than about 40k or so, for profile pictures. Could that be the problem?
And flunking, drunk fluthering, it doesn’t always end well. I’ve been there. It might be time to go to bed, sweetie.
As long as the film ends with that classic I don’t give a fuck or whatever sentence lol. Yeah I should prolly go, even for me, I’m pretty gone haha, nighty nights, take care :)
I revisited this and I don’t think I will ever, ever get a Sunken Treasure. Asking questions is really not my thing, I just don’t seem to be good at it, I don’t have a knack for it, at least not for asking the kind of questions that people on Fluther seem to like or find interesting or compelling or amusing or engaging or whatever the hell it is people want from the questions here. I’m not sure, but I think the most GQs I’ve ever received is maybe 6 and that is a far cry from the 14 GQs needed for a Sunken Treasure. Oh well, I have my strengths and my weaknesses; such is Fluther, such is life. I will do what I do best, whatever that is and leave the amazing, great, grand, fabulous question asking to the amazing, great, grand, fabulous question askers.
I don’t need no steenking badges, although I suspect a question of the day “honour” will remain an elusive one.
@augustlan Why do you rule out those specific ones? The “White Badge” accomplishment, what I call them anyhow, are ones not everyone know how to get or the way to them are not clear as the others. You know when you will get one or what you have to do specifically to get it. To get a Cake in the Frizzer one doesn’t know if I get X amount of these or I get Y amounts of those I will get one. Or do a specific action, like link an email account, etc.
@ucme Yeah, I don’t think I’ll be getting “honored” with a “question of the day” anytime soon either. I can barely manage to get the “question that is not immediately pulled and sent back to editing honor” most of the time.
@lillycoyote I can barely manage to get the “question that is not immediately pulled and sent back to editing honor” most of the time. What!?!? You too!?!? 8-o
@lillycoyote Hey i’m happy with the occasional GQ & a good laugh.
@ucme Me too. That and my sweet little puppy. Of topic, I know.
I can guarantee I will never have Plank-Walker. My Facebook is for my RL contacts only and doesn’t mix with my online life in any way.
I also doubt I’ll ever get Oliver Twist.
Circumnavigator, just don’t think I’ll ever be able to log in 90 days in a row.
I do have a life. No, seriously, I do.
Another vote for Circumnavigator, but for a different reason. I have been on the site more than 90 days in a row, and there is no credit for it. @augustlan, do you know if I need to log out one day and log back in the next? Or can I keep the account logged in, and just visit each day?
If I knew what the hell you were talking about, I could tell you exactly which awards I didn’t get. But I don’t, so I won’t.
I just got the Perfecto-Fish…heehee!
After seeing Qs like this one, I tend to watch the Community Feed, then stalk users that just snagged a big award.. ;)
lol@SpatzieLover, that is so strategic!! Do you ask them… so xxx, how did you snag the Perfecto-Fish???
possibly ;) I try to be as coy as possible going about it
lol@coy…. I seeeeee… :-) I shall have to tag you and follow you around to see what awards you pick up from now on!
@wundayatta Do you mean how to get to the list of all awards and how to see what you have and don’t have? If so, here are the steps: click on your avatar picture, and then click on the Awards tab. Just below the tabs is the sentence, “Awards wundayatta has bravely earned. You can explore the awards to learn more. Click on the Explore the Awards link and it will take you to a list of all awards. There is an asterisk next to the ones that you have earned.
@erichw1504 Circumnavigator, just don’t think I’ll ever be able to log in 90 days in a row. Guess I am one of those who don’t have a life,............. or a Jules Verne :-P
@Pied_Pfeffer as far as the Circumnavigator is concerned I’ve tried both ways to get that award and now I think it’s broken waiting to be fixed by Ben/Andrew. I just hope when it’s fixed its retro-active.
I do think circumnavigator is broken.
@augustlan It has to be. I’ve logged in here every way more than what that award requires.
I want my circumcisizer award!
@Symbeline I will trade you one Circumnavigator, and one Oliver Twist for a Jules Verne ;-P
I don’t know if/when it will be fixed. It’s on the list, though!
@Pied_Pfeffer That would all be very helpful, except that’s not the reason I don’t know my awards. I don’t know because I don’t care to pay attention to it. So your instructions can not address that problem.
@wundayatta That is fine, and I now understand your perspective. It shouldn’t be called a problem. It just is the way you feel. I respect that.
