To help increase interest in the project, I am creating a new badge based on fields counts, and tuned especially towards subfield 7. If this works well, I will also create separate badges for the other subfields.

I already put the hooks in to keep tract of the field counts for sf7. Now it's just a matter of creating the badge images, etc. Hopefully that should be done in the next several days.

Happy crunching!

Thanks Eric, sounds interesting, now I just have to try and earn one.

Did somebody say new badges?? :D
Great idea!

So, how do i know what my status is on sf7? (or any subfield) Will you also break out those stats on our account page?

The counts are implemented, I just need to add the software hooks to display them on the various web pages. Until I do so, you wont know your status.

The new field counts are now on the stats page and the account page (I believe that's all the pages that need it). I still need to implement the badges.

The badges have now been implemented. The badge is a portrait of Galois, considered by many as the founder of field theory.

There are currently 3 levels of badges: bronze star, silver star, and gold star. Some more levels may be added at a later date.

Cool! How many fields do you need for every color? 10 - 50 - 100?

That is correct, 10-50-100.

Really cool badge.

Is the count that the badges are based on shown on the User page ??

I have the following counts on my page is one of them the one ??

Decic count 87
Septic count 11,258
ℚ(√-10) count 1

Yes, its the ℚ(√-10) count, otherwise known as "subfield 7".

Thanks looks like they are hard to find. Can you give a link to a user that has one so I can see what they look like?

LA link to my page is https://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/show_user.php?userid=150

If you look at the Stats list it will show quite a few people have already received the new badge.

Seems like you need at least 10 Field counts to get a badge.

The fields are rare, on average approximately 1 per 1000 WUs.

It is interesting, when are you going to resume Search 3?

Probably not until early next year. We are getting more bang for the buck with sf7 at this point.

Proud new owner of new badge :)

Please add the other sub-field badges. How many sub-fields are involved in this project. I currently have counts on Decic and Q(Sqrt[-10]). I have no counts on Septic.

Thanks

Septics was an old search from several years ago, so there are no more of those. After the current subfield, there are only 2 more left. I will add badges for those when we get there. Be patient.
