Hi everyone,

I've added the following new badges while I was doing some database work today.

1. 1.21 Panorama badge. It's a copper bulb block from Minecraft, which is a block found in Trial Chambers. The pano121 app attempted to find a seed which produces a particular trial chamber matching the one found in the title screen panorama for 1.21.
2. Xoroshigo v1.0. This art was created largely by the lead developer of the xoroshigo project, but I added the "alpha" symbol at the bottom right to represent that it was the first run of the app before optimizations were made.
3. Xoroshigo v1.1. Same art as v1.0, but without the alpha symbol.
4. Xoroshigo Infinity. Same art as v1.0 and v1.1, but with an infinity symbol. I attempted to identify everyone who submitted a task after deadline during the time we had a broken version of the app running that caused runtimes measuring in multiple days for some configurations. If you believe I missed you in error, please let me know. We're in the middle of optimizing the amount of data we're storing in our database, so I may need to review previous versions of the data to ensure I don't miss anybody.

I also managed to re-run the badge assignment for the tall cactus project from years ago. Around 2300 or so participants gained the badge, congratulations!
The discrepancy was likely caused by the method that the previous administrator before me used to apply the badge. Since it did not use a sql clause, it likely used a "snapshot" of data without keeping it updated.

All that said, I will probably also add a loneliest seed badge tonight before I wrap up, but I'll update here if I do.

Thanks for your patience as we've been working diligently to get things running smoothly here.

I have added the Loneliest Seed badge. Just a villager face to represent the lack of villages in the ideal seeds coming out of that project. :)

I'm pretty sure I returned tasks after the deadline. While some of them didn't run for very long as in days, but many of them did run for many hours compared to the usual time which caused a bunch of tasks in my queue to return work after a dead line such as this task here:

https://minecraftathome.com/minecrafthome/result.php?resultid=15073930
and this task
https://minecraftathome.com/minecrafthome/result.php?resultid=15069728

Probably a bunch more, but it's difficult to search tasks on my account as the tasks page(s) take forever to load.

edit
Found one that was returned with a runtime of many days, after the deadline. It just hasn't been verified yet.

Hi Skillz,

I'm running another pass of the queries I was using to identify users on more recent data than I did before.

Hopefully this catches your results and you get the badge :)

More folks should have the infinite badge now.

Initially I only assigned it to people who submitted tasks past deadline, but I've expanded it to folks who submitted any of the tasks with extended runtimes.

The badge image itself may change at some point. I'm recognizing they're not easy to tell apart at a glance, so they may get a color to help define each of them.

Let me know if you have any feedback

I want to export all our badges, yes. I emailed the folks at statseb.fr and I'm still waiting to hear back.
