Do you get badge for the best time of the day so far or the best time of the day overall after server reset?

Hi there, how on earth to i get glowy on a crafting char?
My template is master chef / master AS / part merhant / master artisan.
Currently have 10+ poi badges, 2 jedi poi, most danger ones, 5 profeccions.
And i feel a faint sence of the force :S
any idea peeps.
Also, cant get the themepark badges cause char is all crafting :/
Ask a friend to help? Hire a mercenary? Crafters CAN get all 47 POI badges - just need a decent swoop bike (and a spare, Dathomir can be deadly!)
The Warren can be soloed by a buffed TKM, as can the Corvette destroy missions. Are you in a guild? Do you have any in-game friends that would be willing to help? And, I know people who have done the Imperial and Jabba theme parks with combat droids only - time consuming, but it can be done.

you come on when server restarts and do it before anyone elce can and place a time you then get the badge for that track 100's will come and beat your time but just get there first and you get the badge.

I have an alt that is master artisan, armorsmith, merchant (essentially) but also has pistols 4 in marksman. Get buffed, armor (and maybe a friend) to help out with the theme parks, warren, etc. Thats what I did - they are fun and some nice rewards. You can pay your friend or maybe barter with some armor.

I really have the feeling that the DEV's dont want crafters to do it... I too have a crafter and it's the force crafting that I wanted to get. So I ran around with a bunch of friends and got a bunch of badges prior and I'm only feeling a faint sense as well.. And then there is the fact that even if you are "Glowing" as a crafter and get the visit by The Old Man. Two sith attack you that you need to loot IF you can kill them.. Now they may be easy for a combat person - but what about a Tailor/Chef... /shrug

The sith pirates has like 450ham, thats maybe five shots from a DH18 pistol. What you should be worried about is the amount of crafting exp required to get enough FS exp to buy your FS skill boxes with. THAT will take time

Chef? I personally don't know a single chef that cannot afford a decent suit of Composite armor. And anyone can use a CDEF pistol. The Sith Pirate guys are laughably easy - probably the same HAM as a Gnort. So, ok, a Chef/Tailor won't 1-shot 'em, it may take a few minutes to wear them down. But its definately do-able.

We got our Mayor who's Master Plotician/Master WeaponSmith to surge by taking him on a trip to the Vette where he stayed in the spawn room and helping him with the Imp Retreat.
We plan on helping him with the warren and so on later to help him get glow.
The POI he got on his own. BTW unlike what someone stated there are 45 POIs not 47. Some bug give you double and even triple credits on some POI badges giving you the 45 badge before you actualy have 45.

Well LOL I've only just made Chef and Tailor after a long hard grind which was very costly and now doing the long hard grind of getting stuff made to sell - which is extremely costly - I'm lucky if I have 100k between both characters... 
I am glad to hear that they are easy to take - having not been visited by The Old Man I would not know.
