A quick definition of badger game:

Term: Badger Game

Definition: The badger game is a trick used to get money or other benefits from someone by setting them up in a compromising situation and then threatening to expose their behavior. For example, a person may be lured into a situation with a woman who is pretending to be interested in them, only to have her husband or accomplice show up and demand payment to keep quiet. It is a form of blackmail and can be illegal.

A more thorough explanation:

A badger game is a type of scheme where someone tries to extort money or some other benefit from another person by setting them up in a compromising situation and then threatening to expose their behavior to the public.

For example, a woman might pretend to be interested in a man and lure him into a hotel room. Once they are alone, her accomplice bursts in and claims to be her husband, demanding money in exchange for not pressing charges or exposing the man's behavior to his family or friends.

Another example could be a group of people who invite someone to a party and then secretly record them engaging in illegal or embarrassing behavior. They then use this footage to blackmail the person into giving them money or other benefits.

These examples illustrate how a badger game works by using deception and coercion to manipulate someone into giving up something of value. It is important to be aware of these types of schemes and to avoid situations that could potentially be used against you.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)
