The following Badges have been changed:

Summer Time, Winter Wonderland: These badges are now are using wildcard search for the term “Summer"and "Winter”, all other terms were left in place. A wildcard search means that terms like “Summertime” didn’t count before, and now they do because we match any part of the term as “Summer”, not just a whole word. This means that if you had “Summertime” by Goose Island, it would not count before this change, and now it will count. This might cause you to see 5 out of 5 enteries in the system, but only see 4/5 on the progress bar. *Please note that this is only for the word “Summer” and “Winter”. All other terms that perviously counted are not wildcard matching, just these.* See below for more information.

NOTE: When a badge criteria changes, it means that your count will go down (or up, if styles are added), but it will not affect your current badge (meaning you don’t lose or gain badges). Your badge count, however, will change. For example, if you had 100 distinct beers for the Pale as the Moon badge, and checked in 20 different IPL style beer, your count will go down by 20. Your badge level will remain, but now it will need 20 more distinct beers to get back to where you were.*
