Seems they're likely to be rewards for participating in Torn events. So as more events happen there will be more you can get.
One of the ones showcased on Ched's forum post was "First 100 to level 100"
So hopefully get a time machine for that one lol

seems to me like a skill issue ;)
I personally love things to put in profile so i am looking forward to (try) and get badges, but i hope they are not too hard like the one you mentioned...

FYI there will be a lot more badges to come for various other things too, for things past and present where our data allows, neat little visual addition imo.

I got a badge. The exact same badge as someone who made zero hits. Look, we know this event is political. The winner is decided by backroom deals, not individual battlefield performance. If we wanted a real competition to see which team is best, we would use a double-elimination bracket, but clearly, Torn prefers the drama. That is not my preference, but it is what it is. However, if you are going to award badges, individual effort should count. I grinded to the Top 5% of my 4th place team, and that was not easy. I would honestly rather have no badge at all than the same participation trophy given to someone with 10 hits. Activity is the only thing most participants have any agency over; and it should be recognized or just skip the badges. You COULD do something really cool here with a combination of how the team finished combined with individual effort. If a players team lost, but they put in a top 5%, 10% or 25% effort that says something different than if a players team won but they didn't make a single hit. Torn has had some really good advances lately, but this event wasn't one of them.
i do agree with you, i guess maybe this will change in the future, you can just get a banner with your ranking! its quite the achievement, what i think is that torn didnt want to put too much badge desing maybe for every attacking percentage? or didint want for those 0 hitters to be left out? but quite the dissapointement, we can hope for better stuff for the community next year as this year was just a beta
