All of this has been commented one way or the other, counts, more extensions, colours, rings, fringes, numbers, symbols you name it. Even the techs have inserted posts on what they are looking at and what they might take into consideration when the time comes and that's not now. Heck, we've not seen a newsletter in 6 months so I suppose the crew is in full stretch mode... I'd much prefer newsletters in regularity for that is something I can pass around to sell WCG to those not yet participating and keep others connected who run 'set and forget' which is 90% of the members, the fastest majority.

There's a pie chart in the start here forum doing a loose estimate of the project progress. Eventually, it's each project science team to sell their's with updates and news and maintain their progress page. WCG is working on something to make the information available in condensed form. For that see past discussions on the forum and posts by WCG techs.

A list of members with who got what is not likely to ever happen. Badges were designed to show off by the member e.g. at the forum, not to be shown off. You can though extract badges through running an analysis of using xml. Some team stat compilers are already doing that.

An option in/out for the forum displaying of the badges or primary project were proposed too.

And there is one contributor we know has the gold for the first 10 projects and beta. We respect that this person has never posted, thus shall not be named.

Alright, I can see your point why there's no list of who's got the most gold badges.

I'm somewhat surprised though that apparently not a single member has achieved the perfect 13 gold badges (yet)! Of course this can only be done by those who have already got a gold for all retired projects.

Anyway Sekerob, I see you are awfully close yourself. Nice work! Too bad for that silver on Genome Comparison.
