20,285 Points[SOLVED] Phantom Points? Also, Know How To Get These Badges...?
Hey, has anyone noticed having points for subjects they haven't studied yet? My profile is showing some points for iOS and Ruby but I haven't completed any courses in them. Bug?
And while I'm posting... anyone know how to get the Mike the Frog, Meetup and Chair Yoga badges shown here?:

8,803 PointsI've got points in Android and Design from answering forum questions. You get 12 points for a best answer and 1 point if someone ups your comment. Not sure about those badges.

39,199 PointsMy first thought was forum points like Mark Josephsen, however when I went to your profile your points are achievement points. It's possible you did a code challenge for one of the development tool courses like DNS Basics.

20,285 PointsYea I've definitely did some Dev Tool courses but the Ruby and iOS points are baffling me.

39,199 PointsI've heard that DNS Basics provides points for Ruby. To be sure check with Treehouse Support help@teamtreehouse.com to see if it's a feature or a bug.

20,285 PointsYup, I just learned from support that this is what it is. Points awarded from courses sometimes do get applied to more than one subject area.
Thank you!
