So, I was waiting desperately that I would get one more answer accepted with and I would get this Badge, but it happened differently.

I was stuck on perfect count of 40 accepted answers and 10 accepted answers with score 0, which wouldn't get me the badge as the badge says Zero score accepted answers: more than 10 and 25% of total.

But then, one of my accepted answers which had a score of -1 got an upvote and so now, I had 40 accepted answers with 11 accepted answers of score 0!

Now, as per the rules, I would get it right?

Btw, I checked the count with the help of this query 'user:593336 isaccepted:1'

UPDATE

I read somewhere that it takes 8-10 days for this badge to approve? Is it so? Mine is just a day old.

    That would be my fault, I wrote a song about you once and unfortunately that means you are ineligible for the badge. ;P

  • I think score=0 != (upvote+downvote i.e 10-2 =8) I'm not sure about it. I may be wrong

    posting on meta is a good way to ruin your prospects for the badge... let's see which of those answers deserve some upvotes...

    Haha.. Sure. Upvoting all of them would also be a better option! :)

You have 11 accepted answers with 0 vote. Out of which one was by accepted by you. ( 11- 1 =10)

And one was accepted yesterday,

Community assumes your question is active for 10 days. So you can get up-votes until 10 days. And if your question is accepted with zero votes and criteria for unsung hero is satisfied. You will definitely get the Unsung Hero badge.
