I was looking back at your reporting. You've only requested the first badge. You know you have a "Wall of Fame"? It's only got the first badge on it. It's here.The idea is that each time you complete a badge, you report it in the "Request Badge thread", listing the books you've read and then I give you a badge. According to my records, you are owed badge 2 and badge 3. You are just shy of one card to complete badge 4.
If you aren't working towards earning an actual badge, that is your choice of course, but I'd be happy to give them to you.
