I know the badges are assigned manually, and they have been busy at PAX and stuff, just wondering how long it usually takes to assign the badges?  I donated 2 days ago is all.  No hurry, just I feel like there might have been a problem with the username in the PayPal notes now...

Donation complete, so happy to do this you guys have created such an amazing place. Much better than buying Metro Last Light :P

PM @Slick  ;)
Guys dont PM them, they are up to their eyeballs. Remember, well over 11k even if most people donated $25 (which I doubt) thats still over 400 manual changes to profiles. And tbh its probably more like 1000. I'd wait a week and if nothing then PM them, remember all this is added to work load not instead :)

(this felt like a waste of a post so I decided to add my feelings on make a post with 3 letters. but it was a necessary post.)

I PM'ed Slick and had my badge within half an hour.  Similar situation, I'd donated a couple days before I PM'ed him and he told me it had only gone through to him a few mins before I PM'ed him.  Always a possibility something may have gone wrong, just get in touch and it'll get sorted out.

How much do I have to donate to get my physX badge ?  Eh really just add me to the team and give me a spot on the message boards that I can mod that only deals with physX and give me a free physX badge.

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S

The thread was created on the 21st of August and Linus said the First Blood badges were only available for one month. I'm guessing you only have until the 21st of September which is roughly 5-6 days from now.
