Hmm, now my second box reset back to how it originally was... There might be some glitches here.

So if I just heard about this, today (The 3rd) is there no way to get the badge? If not, I kind of blame the escapist for not doing so well advertising this >.>

That's odd, the 3rd box shouldn't have been up yet. Looks like the code is going self-aware. We'll get the Turing Police to check it out.

I don't even see a day 3 box... I get the feeling these glitches are going to prevent or make it very hard for me to get this badge...

I can't even see the 3rd Box, it's not appearing but it's probably american time so I'll wait for a bit longer.

Box number 3 is clickable, but there's no "3" on it. It just shows what the inside of the box was, which is that "buyer's guide" by Andy Chalk.

Worked out a few kinks with this. Thanks to everyone for your patience and love.

Most importantly, the boxes should "switch on" automatically at roughly the same time each day from now on. So, big apologies to folks who came repeatedly looking for Box 3 and didn't find it. That shouldn't be an issue going forward.

Hey, that's pretty nice. Although most of the pages it links I either already read or didn't interest me. Oh well, I'd like to get that badge anyway.

My door 3 is fine. Now I've opened it there is a little picture of Andy Chalk inside.
My doors 1 and 2 are still showing 1 and 2, rather than a picture inside :(

EDIT: An image shows up under 1 and 2 if I hold the mouse over the door for a couple seconds, but goes when I move it.

Really great idea, makes the site more festive. I don't have a real advent calendar at the moment, so this is a nice replacement :D

Great idea, but I'm a little upset that we didn't get any warning before it started. So I've missed Day 1 and what reason do I have to keep using it? I watch most videos anyway and read the articles if they look interesting, but if you're using a Holiday badge as incentive you kind of failed.

yeah this happened to me too but yesterday that problem was only with day 1, if tomorrow it closes the day 3 one and only keeps the day 4 one this might clear things up but if it doesnt we might miss out on this badge due to bugs

Same thing is happening to me. Can this be fixed, please?
