@Darin off you can remove the badge by deleting the check in that gave you the badge.

Greyed badge showing in my Foursquare Badge List. Almost time for it to unlock.

JR1

Just in from the USC twitter acct:

"T minus 2... The USC @foursquare badge launches on Move-In Day. Who will be the first to figure out how to unlock it?"

So it is now no lomger a rumor this badge will be available on the 17th

Beerknurd

Wondering if I should start checking in to the venues above... Just in case...

JR1

@Beerknurd I went though and checked into 9 venues from every upcoming college badge that we have listed.. Previous checkins counted for the ASU badge so they might count for this one too.

Beerknurd

Today is the day!!! Hopefully...

RainWave23

Yeah hopefully. I've been monitoring twitter all morning for this and Texas A&M Badge, neither of which have popped yet. I'm anxious lol

Beerknurd

Per Twitter this badge is now active and there are unlocks. I have clicked all of the links above and it still has not popped. Maybe previous check ins don't count.

RainWave23

anyone know how many venues? I've checked in to 9 of them and no unlock.

JR1

@RainWave23 I am upto 12 and still got nothing (9 pervious and 3 today)

RainWave23

But they only have 12 recommended venues. How does that work?

JR1

I am thinking previous checkind didnt count for this badge.

Beerknurd

@RainWave23 Still trying to figure that out myself...

Beerknurd

Per the unlocks on twitter, the venues are

https://foursquare.com/venue/16504341(This is in New York but there is a tip by USC)
https://foursquare.com/venue/30659
https://foursquare.com/venue/349511
https://foursquare.com/venue/887921
https://foursquare.com/venue/320501

RainWave23

how'd you find that on twitter? I can't find any unlocks there. I've searched for True Trojan badge, I've searched for Unlocked badge, etc.

Beerknurd

did a search for True Trojan.

Beerknurd

I actually only found 1 unlock... :-(

RainWave23

Yeah I can't find any

Beerknurd

Maybe the New York venue is the key.

JR1

I would doubt that it would be. they would want their students to be able to unlock this badge at the school. And doing that would not allow for that to happen.

Beerknurd

I am going to delete my checkins and mosey on down to my home state and get the Texas A&M badge.

RainWave23

anyone having any luck with these? I was up to 15 venues for USC, no unlock.

Beerknurd

Nope, I can't seem to get either one of the college badges... Only thing I can think of is that the venues need to be visited on different days.

RainWave23

Yeah...there are VERY few unlocks on twitter.

Beerknurd

Pretty frustrating. I was looking forward to a couple of new badges today... :-(

iamc

No luck here...but I will mention that this venue
https://foursquare.com/venue/887921
is listed twice in the unlock instructions (I know that isn't preventing us from getting the badge)

JR1

Fixed. Dont know how I didnt catch that before. thanks :)

Howdy, Stranger!
