The Official badge thread

[Chocofruit]

I've gotten at least bronze in everything now! I'm sorry everyone's struggling so much with the streetpass badge, I got silver ages ago and should get the gold in a while... I'm lucky I live where I do, I guess.

The island tour medals badge is SUCH a chore! I have the best luck with the Elite Ore tour... what do other people do?

You should feel lucky! (Atleast for the streetpass bagde) Nice collection btw! And I feel the same way about the tour bagde, personally I despise tours in general, but when I'm trying to get the bagde I usually do the Giant-dragonfly Tour. Since you get 20 per run on the Giant-dragonfly Tour. Other than that, nice collection and good luck getting more bagders!

The elite scavenger hunt is a good one to do by yourself. 16 medals and you can be done in 3 minutes or under.
Here is a blog with all the items in each house. Helps to memorize them.

I also like the giant dragonfly tour if I can find others to play. Three players will get you 10 bonus medals if you get first place. The scavenger hunt is faster. I just tried the elite ore hunter badge and like that is fast and gives you high medals.

Last night Mr. Badge guy surprised Player 3 with the gold fish amount caught badge. All 3 players have that badge now.
Next up working on the guest town mayor gold amount fish, bug and diving badge. This time I'm trying to catch both fish and bugs to break it up. 20 of one and than I switch to the other. At the end of the night I dive for 20 items.

I just got the tycoon bell saver (gold bell) badge! ;---; I've been working hard on trades and island bugs and fish and any other bell earning methods for this. I can finally stop saving bells!!!

my side cahracter got the backyard gardener badge!! cool

 

[FelicityShadow]

Haha thanks guys! I sold 100 TBT for 20milliom of it. The rest was from bug and fish farming as well as trading here on BTb as well as other sites. I definitely recommend saving any rare stuff to sell it here. That gave me the most bells I believe. Oh and if you haven't heard of the lazy villager trick, I suggest you look that up.

By the way nice job lencurryboy! That was a tough one for me to complete. So many flowers!

I also got my last diving seafood, so I'm expecting the gold badge for that. It's snowing in my town though so I'll probably have to wait.

wow... seriously how??? do u get??? streetpasses??? i've gotten one ever for animal crossing and that made me like the most excited person ever because no one else ever has their 3ds with them )):

i usually do the hammer tours, they're quick and give me 12 medals each time so yeah :>

 

[Dinosaurz]

I do spider crab and tuna tours, you get 20 each and they are super easy

I wish I could go to where you live for those streetpasses! ;--; I would be jumping for joy for even the bronze!

Like the others have said, giant dragonfly is one of the best ones. I like it because you don't have to walk slowly for this one. I typically get the minimum required for the 20 medals and just stop and take a break. I also like the firefly tour and the tuna kahuna. I do agree with you. The island tour medals badge took so long to do. I'm so happy I did that last summer.

Thanks for all the tour advice, I appreciate it! The dragonfly tour seems like a good one, I'd been ignoring it till now.

And the streetpass is easier if you live somewhere a) densely populated, and b) with a lot of kids, and I really lucked out when I lived in Centerbury, England for a few years because there are a ton of kids there, often in huge groups on school trips from France or Spain. Kind of annoying for getting places, but really good for streetpass

(Also, kinda morbid, but childrens' wards on hospitals are great for streetpass because kids in hospital are always playing their 3DSs because there's nothing else to do. I've got a chronically sick friend, and whenever I see him in hospital, I'll get 10 passes...)

London is amazing. I get like 20+ in a full day in central London. But yeah I assume it would be like that.

So today I got the Prof. Of seafood gold badge like I knew I was getting. Phineas then surprised me with not one, but TWO more badges: the golden ballon master badge and the silver great hostess badge! I'm so happy right now!! :') Hopefully when I get a nice week of Nintendo wifi, I can do a giveaway to thank everyone who has visited my town and purchased something from me.

After catching a pill bug for Stitches, I got awarded with another badge: expert bug catcher silver badge! Now I just need to catch 3000 more bugs for gold. ;--;

 

[Dinosaurz]

Got some new badges! . Slowly but surely working my way up.

Nice hearing someone else also like the Giant-dragonfly Tour. Alot of people usually dismiss it because it's 7 mins long, and it only takes 3-5 to get all 10 dragonfly's. But I use those last few minutes that are left just as a brake, so I'm not grinding every second away on tours.

Nice! It's unbelievable that they made the amount to catch 5000 bugs, I mean like seriously, 5000!?! But oh well, I guess it's seems like a more "even"/"perfect" than 4000. Other than that good luck catching 3k more bugs! xD

 

[Dinosaurz]

Yeah I have been doing the dragonfly one too! It's super easy. I do that one along with spider crab and tuna.

Nice, I usually try to avoid tours where I need to dive, I'm terrible at "competetive" diving! xD And also, isn't the tuna-kahuna tour the only other tour where you get 20 medals for gold? I think so.

 

[Dinosaurz]

Tuna, dragonfly and spider crab!
The best ones

 

[Chocofruit]

Tuna, dragonfly and spider crab!

So I see now, that there are 3 tours that give 20 medals per gold run!

Yup! Tuna and dragonfly are the easiest. Spider crab is a little hard... :/. Tunas pretty easy
