  • iamciamc June 2011
    Yep, I've already seen unlocks! :)
  • I got it! thanks for the info! I can also an info: previous checkin count!
  • BenBen June 2011
    Hmm..using the History thing:
    https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/samples/historybrowse.html#

    It seems I've visited 8 places in an overall total. Is there some other thing maybe? Like 5 checkin's in one day?
  • It is 5 times at one venue
  • RainWave23RainWave23 June 2011
    Incorrect. I created a brand new venue to test this and labeled a wine bar. It unlocked upon first check-in.
  • ChaunceChaunce June 2011
    Thanks. I will update the number of checkins
  • arff... I checked to a wine bar to which I went 7 times before, #fail for me
  • RainWave23RainWave23 June 2011
    Maybe it's 5 DIFFERENT wine bars?
  • RainWave23RainWave23 June 2011
    I don't think it's only 1 check-in. I think past check-ins count and it has to be different venues categorized as wine bars. Just a theory.
  • godgila81godgila81 June 2011
    u got the badge using the above 5 venues in one day?
  • JR1JR1 June 2011
    I do believe it needs to be 5 diffrent wine bars. I just checked into a wine bar that i have over 40 previous checkins at and it did not unlock the badge for me.
  • ChaunceChaunce June 2011
    Fixed
  • JR1JR1 June 2011
    I am testing it out now just to be 100% sure
  • TymoraTymora June 2011
    I just checked my history and I've only been to 2 wine bars: one I checked into in chcago for the time out badge and the one I just turned my local park into to get the badge. I'm gonna open my test account and see what she comes up with.
  • godgila81godgila81 June 2011
    i think is, 5 different wine bars, 5 separate days..
    i've checked in 6 different wine bars over 30 mins still no unlock..
  • TymoraTymora June 2011
    Unless I have bars in my history that have wine bar as a secondary catagory then I think it needs seperate days but not nesisarily different bars
  • ChaunceChaunce June 2011
    I wouldn't be surprised seeing as all Foursquare specific badges have been separate days.
  • JR1JR1 June 2011
    I have to agree about the seperate checkins on diffrent days. I have tried it on all my 4sqr accts and have gotten nothing. Even my main acct where i know i have alot of previous wine bar checkins but the must be too far back to count.
  • TymoraTymora June 2011
    5 different wine bars on a blank history and no badge...perhaps the directions should say "undertermined" until we've had a few days to test the multiple day theory?
  • ChaunceChaunce June 2011
    Done & Done
  • JR1JR1 June 2011
    Just have to love the fun of tryin to fig out how to unlock a new badge.
  • rperrorperro June 2011
    Just unlocked: https://foursquare.com/rperro/badge/4df29521922e8e1ea8905a1e

    5 venues with Wine Bar as a category (not always the first category though), in Portland, OR.

    3 of the checkins were today, although I have quite a "wine bar" history...
  • TymoraTymora June 2011
    I have to tests in the running...1 set to check in at a different wine bar every day and the other the same one every day. Both have a cleared history. Details to follow
  • ChaunceChaunce June 2011
    I love seeing everyone chip in at once to figure a new badge out
  • ChaunceChaunce June 2011
    I can confirm that one checkin at a Wine Bar doesn't unlock it
  • TymoraTymora June 2011
    I have unlocked it myself but I can't confirm exactly what did it. I'll share my test info though
  • vecvec June 2011
    Are we sure it's 'wine bar' and not 'wine shop'? ...because foursquare gives points for your first checkin at a wine shop.
