Question concerning two hidden badges - so spoilers I guess?

Live Help isn't allowed to help me apparently so I have to post it here.

Before Nottis was released, I got the Holy Zamboni badge for crunching tons of ice. I wanted to work on the Walking Frozed badge related to getting brain freeze however it says I now have "chronic brain freeze" for crunching too much ice, which I guess is related to the Holy Zamboni achievement.

I just want to know is it possible for me to ever receive The Walking Frozed or have I messed myself up? :(

  • I don't think the chronic brain freeze lasts forever. How long as it been since you last crunched ice? Generally you just have to wait one game day for most effects to wear off.

  • I haven't crunched ice for a few RL days. I crunch maybe 10 pieces a few minutes ago to try to get brain freeze but the chronic brain freeze message came up. I don't have a buff or anything talking about brain freeze.

  • I just checked - I got the Holy Zamboni badge on October 24 so I haven't crunched any ice since then, except for the few pieces earlier.

  • I still haven't figured out Walking Frozed yet... is it random or is there a specific task?

  • I used sno cones for walking frozed also.

  • @Zanahoria12: Specific actions, rather than task

  • If you can find someone who has Walking Frozed (I saw someone get the badge on my home page) and look at their profile, the badge description will tell you how they got it.

  • Actually, the hidden badges don't (necessarily?) have info pages linked from the news feed.  Walking Frozed definitely doesn't at the moment.  (You can see it not too far down my profile.)

  • Larky - if you go to someone's achievement page & hover over the badge, even the hidden badges tell you what they were for.  You're right that they don't have an info page, though - nor can you do it directly from the profile!

  • Kadi, neat :)  However, in this case, all the mouseover tells you is "Froze your brain 11 times!"

  • Well, given that there aren't a lot of ways to get a brain freeze...
