For those who review for Netgalley, I am just curious whether the 80% badge is based only on requested books and not 'read now' books.

I just started on Netgalley, but I'm pretty sure it's only for books that you've actually been accepted for. (At least, I'd be pretty miffed if they held me accountable for reviews that I hadn't been authorized to write.)

I am kind of surprised there doesn't seem to be a forum or facebook group where Netgalley reviewers chat. But I guess I assume everything is social-media-embedded when sometimes it is not.

I am mildly intrigued by the idea of 'badges' for book reviewers. What are points gained for? Number of reviews, speed of reviews? Length of reviews, quality of reviews? Number of comments/replies added? Would starting a flame war over a comment count for or against your total?
