Hi everyone!
Just writing to wish you all a very happy 10th anniversary. Yes, that's right... Illy first went live on 22nd February, 2010... IN NUMBERS Over these ten years:
During this 10-year period, we've had 14h22m of oopsies (ie unscheduled downtime) for which we apologise, but we're also quite proud! THE ORIGINAL ILLY In case you weren't around at the beginning... here's what the v1 town map looked like. And, please note the subtle way the world map blends the arctic north into the rest of the gameworld: 10-YEAR CELEBRATION MEDAL Everyone who logs in directly (not via sitters) between today and the 1st of March 2020 will receive a thank-you medal for participating in our 10-year anniversary week. The medal looks like this: ... and will be awarded to everyone (who logged in during this coming week) in a big batch on the 2nd of March. LENGTH-OF-SERVICE ANNIVERSARY MEDALS From now on and going forward, players will also be awarded medals for their length of time in the game when they hit 1-, 2-, 3-, 5-, 7- & 10-yr milestones. These medals will be awarded shortly after midnight on the anniversary of their player creation date. These medals look like this: ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY THREE YEAR ANNIVERSARY FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY SEVEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY Within the next week, we'll be handing out these anniversary medals to all the players who already qualify for them; we just need to write some batch code to grant them in bulk. ---- Many thanks for joining us on this journey, and I hope you'll remain with us longer! Best wishes from all the team here at Illy, SC

Medals anyone? I do not seem to have any on my awarded medals page? Or am I just being dense?
