The 100k Badge: it’s real... it’s mine!
"That's one small step for a IB'er, one giant leap for 'IB-kind'."
I just couldn’t resist to say this phrase.
Finally I got 100k points and the 100k Badge is mine. This is exciting but at same time frustrating. Exciting because this badge is the most difficult to get and I'm the first to do it. Frustrating because now there aren’t any badges to get. It’s like a Game Over screen.
Anyway, it was a long journey since June, 25th when dyar recruit me to be his apprentice. That time I was already an old IB member but I didn’t know about IB Points System. He taught me patiently and here I am. One more time I want to say many thanks to you my friend dyar.
For all people who at any moment accept a single bronze set from me I want to say: Thank you.
Now, I’m going to take some deserved rest. This journey was tiring and I need to do it. I’ll keep fulfilling requests made in my box but I’ll be less active here in the forum.

Congrats. Nice Job.
dyar on Nov 15, 2007
Congratulations! I know that's been a lot of hard work. You now have every attainable Badge. I guess the Chefs will have to come up with some new Badges. It's been fun watching your run to 100k.

Congrats jsfreire. The badges ARE NOT OVER. There will be some new badges in the near future with new sets of 10th icons appearing and remember the badge for 3 Diamonds.
Dyar also helped me to understand the part of how the tokens are fulfilled before and after one upgrades to VIP.
This man is really usefull.

Congratulations dude.

@laulena: Thanks again.

@dustybunny: Thank you.
@dyar: Thanks again man!
@danielsemper: I know there will be more badges, but it depends exclusively on the chefs. You've helped me too... as you grew up I had to grow up faster to stay at #1...
@elnitido52: Thanks matey! When new badges become available I'll be there getting them!
@Reiji: Thanks man. The 100k Badge brought 10k Points...
