A couple days ago somebody [mentioned][1] the [Beta Badge][2], which is given to users who "actively participated in the private beta". If you view [this page][3], it defines "active participation" as "...earning at least three bronze badges". Yet, on the page that lists [the users who have the Beta Badge][2], there are a couple who have only two badges besides the Beta Badge, while people who earned more than three or more badges during the private beta aren't listed there.

I (and others) met that requirement before the public beta, yet we aren't classified as people who participated in the beta.  I know that badges and reputation aren't [and shouldn't be] the main thing here, but I thought I'd bring this up. 

Is this a bug, or am I missing something?
