I'm confused...

According to the Wiki:

Quote:
Defeat Olympian Guard in the Rescue Statesman mission of Maria Jenkins's A Hero's Epic arc OR Defeat Tyrant in the Free Statesman mission from Maria Jenkins's A Hero's Hero arc
Does the new change imply that you have to complete the entire arc to be awarded the badge(s)?

And how does that affect characters who already ran the new arc and old arc via Oro?

Sounds good, even though I know this means that I'll have to run Maria's arc again on my badge character.

Yes, or more importantly the last mission in the Hero's Hero arc.

Given past badge changes of this sort:
You'll keep the Statesman's Pal badge, but you'll have to redo the Hero's Epic arc to get the Positron's Pal badge.

Thanks again for all your feedback!

Dr. Aeon
Thanks for acting on the feedback. I can't help feeling that the need for such action is indicative of what I consider to be a problem at the core of the development staff; especially if the flag badge text was changed as has been rumored. Perhaps you could take a look at that and make sure that someone didn't decide that "remove Statesman's presence" meant "remove all trace of him from the game".

I can't speak for all players but there is a measurable faction of us who value the backstory and don't appreciate the way that it's getting run roughshod over time and again.

Stuff like this makes me feel old, but this really is 5th Column -> Council all over again. I could see if this is a brand new team making this mistake, but both Matt Miller and Melissa Bianco were there for I3. They should remember the mess that turned out to be, especially when someone (who may have been sacrificed to the masses) decided to remove all mention of the 5th Column, even from exploration and history badges. So Atlas died defending Independence Port from an alien armada.

Mess with the present if you need to, things change. But whatever you do, don't mess with the past. We've seen how that goes, and it's not wroth it.

Because he's the designer the players deserve, but not the one it needs right now.

I knew it would be problematic changing existing badges--akin to 'taking them away'.

I approve of these changes.

Thank you very much Doc Aeon. This has made me and a number of my SG mates very happy (once they hear the news)!

Well done, Sirrah.
