But one is still missing. And that one holds back a cluster of 5 thus delaying a lots of B's and C's

Delays are cumulative, and they delay potential treatments!
It is up to the techs to determine WU importance to the project, and issue enough numbers to ensure one of each task type is returned as soon after the average run time as is desirable. In this case I would have thought the importance would be very high; new tasks depend on the results of previous tasks in this project. Beta tasks are arguably even more important. Perhaps it would be important to consider the relative situation of the project as well.

Ultimately the badges will not matter, but there is nothing wrong with setting personal goals, having fun and being proud of your achievements - life is about the journey not your wealth of possessions at the end.

As I promised, Here is a little bit of a warning about new DDD2 work that is going to be released within the next 6 hours. It is all of the typeB work for ts06. So 50 work units sent out with 2 copies each. All of the type A's completed and now we're onto type B :)

woot the B's are comming.. hope i get one but im probably going to be at work during the release so i am sure to miss them except if one of my computers manage to get it somehow.

thanks for the info... any chance we can get some more type A's going while we wait for the b's to be processed and then reviewed?

Oooh. I am NOT going to answer that one
