BigTaro's Badges

Hey all! BT here! I love the #badgelife scene. I've been making both #badgelife badges and official badges for public and private cons since 2023!

Hey #wwhf #milehigh2026 attendees! I have some #badgelife badges for sale and to giveaway at the con! Will have both my frogstar and submarine badges, and maybe a few [REDACTED] badges to give away too! Come find me with the lanyard around the con Tomorrow and Friday ;)

Want to hack away at your @districtcon.bsky.social badge? I made a “hackable” version of the code available for those of you who want to write your own firmware, this should get you started: github.com/bigtarobadge...

Some stats for the @districtcon.bsky.social Year 1 badge challenge ( game.districtcon.org ): - 410 registered users (out of ~1200 attendees) - 5.4 average puzzles solved (of 38 total puzzles) - A high score of 469 by "chef" (of 620 possible) 🧵

Thanks to those that played our badge challenge this year! If you want to unlock all that sweet bling, try the konami code, then enter our S3CR3T B4TT3RY UNL0CK code.
