If you’ve been visiting the site out of curiosity, you may have noticed these ‘achievements’ on the side bar, and wondered what they are all about. Well, a little while back some of ‘The 300’ had teased at the idea of implementing a badge system, so I went ahead and installed one, and filled it up with a ton of fun categories. Many of these are unlocked via secret codes that will be sent you via email, Skype, or messenger, depending on your preferred method of communication. When you enter these codes, you’ll unlock special achievement and ‘karma’ points (not what I wanted to call them, but you work with what you have). Some of these achievements include ‘Devil’s Advocate‘ (for arguing against the prevailing opinion in a forum) , ‘Angry Monkey‘ (for having a tirade against religion), and ‘Pimp my File‘ (for filling out your profile including a funny bio). There will even be some achievements that are time sensitive, or can only be unlocked by listening to the podcast.

As time goes on, more and more of these achievements will show up, evolving as the group does. I hope you find these as fun as I do!

If you’re a current supporter, or have made significant contributions over the years, you’ve been added to this site to encourage you to engage with other members. With a working forum and more goodies coming, my hope is this will serve as a cool new place for people to engage with me and other people who like what I do.

So, why not start by introducing yourself in the forums? If you don’t have a number yet and want one, be sure to make a note of it in the forum and I’ll set you right up!
