Welcome to our Badges and Ranking section! You can see a list of users who have a badge or rank by simply clicking its name. It is important to understand that the badges and ranking systems are separate from each other and ONLY WORK when you’re logged in. If you have any questions, suggestions, or see a bug, please leave a comment below.
Note, please no longer use the comment section for posting your nominations or congratulations. We’ve created a group for that!

Is it possible to include forum posts/comments for the purpose of assigning points?
We want to include that functionality at some point, but right now it’s not there.
How do you know how many points you have?
You must be a member of AngryBirdsNest
Also click on your Avatar when you are logged in or have 1.
is there any way you guys can (or have already) make a roster of who’s gotten what rank? or at least of ppl with “Da Bomb” or “Hardened” or higher listed? i’ve been kinda interested to see who else has master slinger on here except slim and bird leader. highest i’ve really seen of anyone i think is chaos (or something similar, he’s got the fox avatar), and he’s champion.
Considering something like that. It would probably be a “leaderboard” sort of thing — list the top 25 or something.
To my knowledge, there are 4 Masters: myself, BL, Fuji and manu. I think Habanero is Fling King. Then Chaos, toddman, Higgins and 8ball are Champions. That’s just going by memory though.
@angrydrummer: i had the same idea! watch post above for a top ten list! maybe that there has changed something cause some were really close together with their points but that are the absolute best players! (hope i didnt forget one but those should be the top 10
How do put a picture next to your name and not a pig with glasses
And also, I’m a new member so shouldn’t I have Flinger (0 points)
Create an avatar using these instructions.
Yes, you will be Flinger so long as you are signed in. But by default, no badge shows until you have advanced at least 1 rank. You can see the “Flinger” badge in your profile.
Thanks slim!
It works
Note that the avatar is “loyal” to the email address you are using. The reason why it appears in all of your comments except the “thanks slim” one above is because that is using a different email.
If you mix back and forth a little, it is a good idea to add the other email to that gravatar account.
Um why is the Score Gatherer badge a banana?
IDK, maybe you have to be slick to find ’em? haha
Shouldn’t it be a 3 star icon? See the Quick-Nav icon
Hahaha clever! That’s it (probably)!
What about the
Leaderboard guardian: Why is it a hat?
Helping hand: why is it a glass of lemonade?
Not everything means something.
OK cool. I like this though!
I agree with Slim, though they do mean something to me. The guardian icon is a sheriff’s cowboy hat because in a way that’s just what they are. Helping Hand is a glass of lemonade because it’s a nice gesture. When’s the last time you actually made yourself a glass of lemonade?
I started a discussion, and posted comments, but only have 25 points. How do I get more?
Explained in this post and in the comments above.
If you started a Discussion in the forum it doesn’t count for pts. You need to be logged in to get pts. You will get 5 pts everey 24 hours. Then 5 pts per comment per page. Hope this helps:)
Thanks! Got it, but one more question-Does your comment have to be moderated before you get the five points? Thanks!
Yes. And if it’s deleted the points are retracted. Don’t be offended though, everyone gets comments removed now and again.
Even me
I had surely got one koi fish but it doesnt show up on my level page and why isnt tthe mighty dragon not available on pc
The koi only shows on the level screen if you earn 100% Total Destruction.
I think you’re mistaken, you can’t get a koi when you destroy a golden one, that just gives 3000 points. Mighty Dragon helps you obtain the koi, which isn’t available in PC :(
Is it possible to view other profiles other than yourselfs and admins.
Sure, click on anyone’s name.
Not to sound like sour grapes, but except for Xmas and summer picnic, some platforms cannot be score gatherers.
Such as? Android usually gets the update the same day as iOS, and sometimes PC gets the update as well.
I don’t mean to sound like a doofus, but someone like Katy or Laurence said that the new levels could help them get more points… justice like every update. If this is true, how do you actually earn points by doing that? Thanks!
New levels=New walkthroughs. Since walkthroughs give the 5 points like other pages, more walkthroughs=more comments=more points.
True, but just make sure your comments are helpful or insightful. If they are go for it, if not, be careful.
How can I upgrade my ranks quick? I am still Deputized even though I came here a year ago.
This system was only implemented last October.
my rank before was debomb but it changed to deputized could u please fix this
I think an admin removed some of your comments… idk
A lot of your comments that said “awesome” were deleted.
Instead of going through and deleting your “awesome” comments (which would take some time), the points were removed. It seemed to me that you were just writing “awesome” or “thanks” on pages for the sake of points, which is not the point of this system.
how can i get the Seasons Greedings 1-16 Feather badge !?
You can’t. Qualification for the badge ended with the releases of Seasons v2.0.0 (Ham’o’ween).
oh ! okay thanks
i wish i saw this before
When wil the badges & ranking coming to the forum?
Not for a little while.
Ok. Why does it take so long time?
Not at the top of the list, and the compatibility may be an issue.
2 questions….first how long do you have to be a member to be considered alumni?…next. i have 3 scores left to beat average in smugglers den . I guess. I beat the episode average because at the bottom of the board it says score addict….wouldn’t that be a cool badge or is it the same as score gatherer
1) We have no real set time. The badges are assigned on an individual basis. I’m sure at some time soon we will go through and consider new candidates for Alumni.
2) The Score Addict tracker is the same as the Score Addict achievement as appears on iOS.
Ty …do you think acheivements swill be availabe for different platforms anytime.soon? Ty for help:)
Don’t know about “soon”, but perhaps Rovio is considering an in-app achievement system in light of the GameCenter limits.
Is there any way to find a list of everyone who has a specific badge?
Not at this time. In fact, I’m not even aware of a way for admins to see such a list.
if you want i could write a list with the top 25 users (from the amount of points) and their badges!
If you want to. Not too big of a deal ATM.
okey, just let me know when you need/like a little overview!
What I’m really curious about is if there are any people with the “Celebrity Judge” badge (i.e., work for Rovio? Haven’t noticed any, but then you have to look at profiles to see badges.
They comment form time-to-time; however, they’re usually they’re lurking in the shadows soaking up knowledge and feedback from this great community.
Don’t suppose you’d tell us who any of them are? Still hoping to get an answer about whether or not there are any random number generators in the AB code.
No, probably not. I think your best bet would be to send them a message via Twitter (@AngryBirds) or contact them via their site.
how do you know how many points you have?
Hover over your profile picture if you are logged in.
Hi how I can find the game to get the badges?
These badges are only associated with this site.
DjTiger…you can sign up for this site, then you can work towards earning badges:) its a great site and everyone here is very freindly and helpful:) welcome to the Nest:)
Does every 24 hours mean at midnight is starts over or when you created your account, because 5 points just got added to my account for no reason.
24h from the last time you were awarded 5 points.
share the wealth, helping hand, and secret santa sound about the same to me… how are they different?
Share the Wealth is specific for strategies.
Helping Hand is helping the community.
Secret Santa is for providing original, distributable content.
How does you get the Score Gatherer bagde?
By finding the minimum 3 star score required for each level.
and also frequently informing the good people at ABN of your efforts :)
I have got 3-stars in every level in ABO. Is that enough?
That’s not the concept. As new levels are released, it is an active effort by some members of the ABN community to determine the minimum score to earn 3 stars.
With apologies if these questions have already been asked and answered but I have only been playing for about 7 months. Am really trying to challenge the top scores.
– Is there a difference in scoring potential by platform, e.g., iPad vs PC? I have read traffic which suggests that Chrome allows for higher scores. Do you see any real difference by platform?
– Is there a listing of games which have changed over time. For example in early version of Poached Eggs 3-5 the roof of the structure was stone but is glass in latest version. Believe that the glass version is slightly more difficult.
– Do any of the current high scores reflect advantage from program glitches which have since been corrected?
Again, thanks for maintaining this site. The spreadsheet of high score, average, and rank within a game really help to highlight how much room there is for personal improvement.
No need to apologize :)
1- you’ll see a difference on web based applications but not between mobile, tablet or pc.
2- those changes are not recorded but you’ll find them sometimes on the walkthrough pages.
3- the only notable glitch was on Seasons Greedings, the levels are tagged.
1) We have seen Chrome users end up with higher scores, which is likely a platform discrepancy. Other than that, I truly believe that all major platforms (iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, PC, Nokia) play exactly the same. The only “discrepancy” would be that larger screens can result in more frequent precision, but that’s really not a discrepancy at all.
2) We actually compiled a list a while ago, but I’m not sure where it is. Most of these changes are minor and actually made levels easier. (For example, you mention 3-5, and I believe the ice roof is far easier and has the potential for 1-bird clears.)
3) With the exception of Santa Hat levels in Seasons Greedings, I believe all current Top Scores can be tied/passed in the current version of any app.
Followup, on #2, the following changes occurred on iOS platforms with v1.6.0:
I have added these disclaimers to the video walkthroughs. As far as we know, these are the only significant changes that have been made over time.
This isn’t a change over time, but more of difference across platforms. Mighty Hoax 5-21, on my driod, the outer structures are 3 levels high. On Chrome and AB for facebook, the outer structures are only 2 levels high. Not sure about Apple/iOS, I don’t have them, but based on the walkthrough, guessing they are also 3 high.
The 3 star min on the walkthrough is listed at 175k. On Chrome, I have only gotten 168k and 2 stars. On FB, I have 160,630 and 3 stars. (189k and 3 stars on my driod)
Yes, there are a few differences on Chrome and Facebook. Some are level design, some are 3-star thresholds. Not sure why.
iOS and Android should align.
Oh snap… I think I earnewd 5 or 10 pts for posting that comment. :)
Yes, it is 5 points daily for logging in, 5 points for the 1st comment on a page.
Does anyone else other than the admins have the rank of super slinger? If anyone else gets it, I suspect the points required will be changed, or another level will be added.
Manu Malin.
I was just about to say that. Did he get promoted or did he get it by himself?
OK. He deserves it. But if too many reach that, i expect my statement will stand. How many points do the admins have now, anyway?
He was promoted due to his overwhelming awesomeness.
For now, and for the near future, I think the thresholds are OK where they are.
I think Fuji is a little over 10k, BL is around 11K, and I’m somewhere near 1M I guess ;)
14k is the real estimate. It would have been better if you said you were over 9000, lol.
Just curious, and not questioning the awesome legend of the great and powerful manu…do you know him personally or just through the site? Tell me none of my business if you want i will not take offense:) just wondering.. :)
Never met the legend. But then again, I’ve never met BirdLeader in person either.
2-3 years from now, a lot of people will have master slinger.
Have you met Fuji yet?
@slim that’s really surprising lol…I pictured you 3 ,BLl fuji and yourself as freinds who developed a website and all worked together in a small office or something like that lol….who knew! :)
We’ve bonded…digitally.
Manu also got a bit lucky to have that rank. When I first developed ranks I didn’t have the badge system in place. In hindsight I would have probably assigned him (and others) a badge and let their rank increase naturally. Alas, he’s got the rank (and it’s deserved), but I almost look at it as more of a badge.
I expected that BL and slim haven’t met in person yet. Slim is on the east coast and BL is somewhere in CA. Not sure about fuji though.
Additional ranks will definitely be added down the road. I’m sure other tweaks will be made as well.
Question!:D
I don’t understand how did I get the points?:D:D:D
Did someone explain tome,how to get this points?
Thx,Max!;]
5 points for daily check-in, 5 points for commenting at least once on a page.
Slim and BL, I think mvnla2 should receive a helping hand badge for all of the wonder information and helpful things he/ she has done for all of us here at the Nest!! :)
You are so right! He’s been awarded two new badges.
Wow! Thanks! And thanks Sunshine and Laurence for thinking of me.
Nicely done and well deserved.
I suppose you read this article already, if not …The Gravitational Force in Angry Birds Space
You have to live up to this badge now :D
I just noticed 2 new badges: “High IQ” and “Pleasant Company”. Has anyone been awarded them yet?
Saw it to, I want to put Sunshine up for the ‘pleasant compagny’ although I don’t know about the call and collected LOL
She the one who triggered me to write more than just the strats :)
mvlna2 got ‘High IQ’ but there doesn’t appear to be an image for it yet! :)
The images should be showing up now, though the image may be cached by your browser, in which case you’ll just see the slingshot icon.
A few people have been given these. So far three people have “High IQ”: AMSlimfordy, mvlna2, and sammishredd. sammishredd’s amazing comment regarding Lagrangian Point gave me the idea for this one.
So what is the image for high IQ? (You may have to take mine away, since I can’t figure it out.)
@ mvnla you are very intelligent…really good at figuring out angles and speeds and how to put them together for high scores..I didn’t look at the description yet but I am sure that is taken into consideration..don’t sell yourself short :) just enjoy:)
Black bomb bird just as he explodes? Rorschach ink blot?
Looks like a bomb exploding!
@BL — I would really like to know what the icon for high IQ is???
Congrats SLIM! You definately deserve this ten times over!!!
Congrats again to mvlna2!
Congrats sammishredd!
Congrats all who got new badges! Is there a list anywhere. Will take a while to figure it all out.
Right now there is no list of who has what, though it’s on my to-do list.
I just finished a solid two weeks worth of grinding it out for that Score Addict achievement! I actually did a little victory dance/cry when I finally got the “Right Stuff” on D-30 to put me over by 6,000 points. Here is my screenshot.
Congrats rd…I don’t have dz yet but sounds like its difficult …congrats in advance on badge:)
Kathy: It’s not difficult as far as figuring out what to do on each level. It’s more difficult just trying to pull off the shots. Especially on levels such as D-30 where you can have a perfect 1st shot, then you can’t get the proper 2nd shot off due to debris resting right below the slingshot. So when you fire the bird, it catches the debris, rendering your bird useless.
Congratulations! Your badge has been awarded.
how can I get my danger addict badge :-p
Get 3,130,000 points or more in Danger Zone.
I have that score :-) the question is how or where can you get it exactly after reaching the score, or where can I see my badges?
You can see your badges by clicking on your username and it will be present to the right of your avatar
Post a screenshot of the score on ABN, and one of the admins will award the badge to you :)
