	"dinosaur-in-a-haystack" and "Brontosaurus Bully" had me thinking you earned it by getting a time-of-day adventure in which you fight a Brontosaurus as well. It might just be that the names are references to the books [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinosaur_in_a_Haystack Dinosaur in a Haystack] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bully_for_Brontosaurus Bully for Brontosaurus] because Ryme happens to like them, and it doesn't have anything to do with anything other than the theme. And you're a Brontosaurus Bully for killing tons of them like Satan suggested. I think I spent about 300-400 adventures there, and I don't have the badge, so it's got to be more than that. - bamse		"dinosaur-in-a-haystack" and "Brontosaurus Bully" had me thinking you earned it by getting a time-of-day adventure in which you fight a Brontosaurus as well.
