| If '''GYTB''' gives the error "'''WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE ELF.'''", it is for one of two reasons:
| |
| # If the error appears after saying "'''Writing to extdata...'''", your badges folder is either not present, misplaced, or misnamed.
| |
| # If the error appears after saying "'''Checking for preexisting Badge Arcade badges to dump...'''", then your pre-existing badges were unable to be dumped. Clear your badges in Badge Arcade's help desk and then try again.
