How do one earn Linkify badge?
You supply Indy with lots of coffee, among other things :)

Is there a way to manually change VoS if clock fail to update?
Nope :( If the game clock Twitter thing fails to update for the hour, then Linkify can't read it to update. I suppose you could indirectly make Linkify update by making the clock update, but I don't know how the clock works, so not sure that's possible.

Version .... .61 of Linkify is working correctly for me atm! Showing the default Seren symbol as the game clock wasn't updated for this hour.. Maybe it's just being picky because you updated to this version after the hour rolled over? Not sure on that :)

Edit: Aww, the color gradient doesn't work anymore... Or I forgot how to do it. The latter is more likely!

Hiya Ziksy,

I'm still working on a few things to improve the situation when the official feed fails. I hadn't thought about being able to manually change it. That's something I'll consider.

As you can see the feed failed for this hour, the changes I made wont come into effect until it can hit a working clock. So hopefully in 15 minutes it'll apply and handle future fails better.

I'm in the process of writing my own API that I'll host on my site to handle the clock, this will make things much better since I'll tailor it specifically for RS Linkify.

As for the badge, that's just a little something I gave to people who have contributed to linkify, that I feel deserve a little recognition. Those people often provide help on this thread, so it's a nice for readers to see the info has a level of credibility.

Those who have the badge have no obligations to RS Linkify, nor does it require any upkeep. I guess the main thing about the badge is that it's my way of saying thank you, I don't know what I'd have done without you.

I think Lust was the last one to get a badge, she's helped largely with custom avatars, also provides answers to questions, and gives me lots of solid feedback on new content and new ideas. And of course posts some cool coffee gifs.

I don't think anyone has tried to earn one, and I think in most cases it came as a surprise when they were issued one. Most of the people with badges got them all at the same time, there was no prior knowledge that there were badges in the making so it wasn't something to aim for.

Hi Indy!

I recently learnt that my Gmail (for some reason) only has a ~50% success rate in sending emails, as I learnt after a not so happy person got a bit angry with me ignoring him... So that may explain a few things :)

I hope you are well nevertheless and I shall speak to you soon.

Here's some coffee to tide you over :)

If you don't mind I would like my badge to be functional again - I may as well since I am not so active any more. I don't even remember what it said!

Much love ­<3 Unslain Bosses - Clan

Hiya Rowley :)

With your email success rate and my appalling reply times, I think we're doing pretty well :)

I'll have your badge re-enabled today :)

I'm just doing some final testing on an API I wrote for handling the Jagex Clock, when I push that update out, I'll make sure your badge is back on.

I can smell that coffee from here ­<3
