I have seen the Unsung Hero gold badge which is awarded on 10 accepted answers with total scores of zero.

My 10 answers have been accepted with score of 0. I have answered a total of 107 questions on which 13 are answers with 0 score. Out of these 13, 3 are answers to my own questions after research, but there are 10 questions which are accepted by other users.

I have still not been awarded the Unsung Hero gold badge. What is the reason?

    FYI, you only have 9 qualifying zero-score accepts, because one of the zero-scoring accepts is community wiki and is therefore ignored, thus you don't meet the requirements at the moment.

The 25% is out of total accepted answers, not all answers, so you look to be well over that threshold anyway.

Get 1 more 0 score accepted answer, then wait about a week and you should get it.

  • Is that true also for the Tenacious badge?

You do have 10 accepted non-wiki answers with 0 upvoted.

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

But one of them is your own accepted answer, that does not count.

    @Shadow, I just searched "user:526367 isaccepted:1 wiki:0" on search box and clicked all the links for this answer. (for general tips, I use to search at search box, google, browse through google's cache of old page, edit history, suggest history at 10k tools, user activities/responses/reputation list at profile, ....)

  • @YOU does your own accepted answer count toward the 75% of total answers keeping you from getting the badge?

Unsung Hero: Zero score accepted answers: more than 10 and 25% of total

10 is not more than 10, and is less than the 25% fo 107

    the 25% is of accepted answers, not of answers.
