Was just wondering if anyone else is having trouble sending in applications for your badges right now. I've been trying for 3 days and still says it's taking to long and therefore does not go through. Any suggestions as to what I can do on my end?

Alright. So!
What I'm seeing this morning is...

Winnie: Yours all went through (actually 1 Intermediate and 3 Beginner Knitting applications).
It looks like Chelsea has a decently-sized list of new applications to work through, so I believe it's just taking her a bit to get to yours.

Gail: I didn't see any from you in there at all.

So I'll do some test applications to make sure the online form seems to be at least basically functional, and gives the proper results when it is (the "badge successfully submitted" kind of thing).
I mean, it appears to be doing so, since there are applications in there from today, yesterday, Monday, etc. and we haven't heard from anyone otherwise before now.

If it does look like it's working properly, Gail, then give it another try - different day, different mojo.
If it's still not saying you've successfully submitted after 1–2 tries, email me all the info you're trying to submit so I can look it over for potential problems and just get it to Chelsea so she can get the badge you've rightfully earned to you, despite any darn online, new-fangled, submission form silliness. :)

Looks like they're working. Here's what I got (not that I couldn't have just gone in and copied it straight out of the page's source code) ... (but I didn't, pinky-swear). I did one Knitting Beg & one Knitting Int:

"
Merit Badge Application Successful!

Your Merit Badge Application has been sent to “Henquarters.” We’ll look over your entry, and once it’s approved, your entry information will be shouted from the rooftops (cooptops?) on our forum and you’ll be e-mailed a set of links to your achievement certificate and badge patterns. You can print out the certificate and frame it, and then transfer the design of the badge itself to the fabric of your choice and embroider it.

Apply for another Merit Badge
"

So, Gail, give it another try, and like I said, if it doesn't appear to work, just email us the goods directly.
