It takes a lot of people to make this happen!
Badgelife is the best life. Come explore this crazy world of Badges.
We found an old engineering drawing from MK Factor. It looks like someone did some reverse engineering on the original Klippy-Net Wrist Communicator. I wonder if we can use this in our fight against the evil Klippy AI… (click for a higher resolution version)
We also came across this press release…

In all seriousness…
We don’t normally release badge information before the conference, but we have some exciting new things this year and we want people to have the opportunity to make some cool additions to the badge.
There’s a lot more info and even some KiCad templates available on github!

FAQ:
Q: What more information can you tell me about the badge?
A: I’m afraid what has been released, is what you get (Have you looked at the github??). It’s more than you normally see anyway.
Q: But, I really want to do X with the badge, can I do it?
A: Again, if it works with what has been released, you bet. Go nuts
Q: Ok, but I REALLY want to have my minibadge interface with the badge game and do something special.
A: That’s not a question, but let’s start with the first bit there. Who told you there was a “game”?
Q: Oh…uhh…I suppose…I just assumed.
A: Again, not a question…you know how these work right?
Q: Why can’t you support <super cool integration> it’ll be awesome!
A: I’m sure it would be! The reality of the situation is trying to coordinate yours (and everyone else’s) cool integrations puts a tremendous amount of stress / work on a small volunteer team that is already running at near capacity. Maybe in the future we’ll have a cool framework / spec to make this seamless but that’s just not today.
Q: Ok, that’s fair….so…is there a badge game or not?
A: … Schmaybe …
Q: Does v0rtex ever wear colors besides black?
A: Yes, once he wore a green shirt. It was a momentous occasion.
Q: What is the badge’s team secret? What keeps them going?
A: Little Caesars pepperoni pizza puff thingies… If you haven’t tried them…you really… actually…right now…order them. Then return and report.
