]]> Comment on The race for the Super Swarm by Chris Pearson http://foursquarestival.co.uk/the-race-for-the-super-swarm/#comment-10 Chris Pearson Sat, 25 Sep 2010 16:06:55 +0000 http://foursquarestival.co.uk/?p=218#comment-10 I would agree abou the game element to foursquare and the chasing for badges the London / Cheltenham chase for the badge is the mayor chase but the collective version. The current competition is good and gives at least 2 chance's to hardcore fans to get a chance to get the badge. It is possible neither of us achieve it : we don't have traffic from any event but have a bigger tech scene which means getting a community mobilised and if that community is not that bothered then it will fail for us. I think Cheltenham is a good bet, it may easily inform enough people of the event via its current channels but may not get enough users with smartphones but by the look of the team put together you will have thought of that problem. From the whole @superswarm team we wish you the best of luck and if we fail, i am sure you will see a London set making their way to take in the sights, i for one will be checking in to the Bank House to offer my support whatever the outcome.
