So what about when you complete a test but the owner of the pattern never marks it completed or gifts the pattern? I donāt think testers should be penalized for a creator no longer responding.
Also where can we see our %?
Well, as long as you donāt abort it yourself by hitting the little x on the pattern it shouldnāt count against you, but it will stay in your testing patterns area.
When a designer isnāt gifting the pattern, I kindly send a request to them to do so. (Just make sure you wait till after the due date as many designers wait till then to gift it to everyone.)
If that doesnāt work, maybe message @ribblr with the specific pattern and designer and a link to your complete journalā¦
@Ribblr, can you help the tester out in this situation?
Yeah usually reminding them politely works, but when it doesnāt, thereās not much to do about it. And maybe Iām wrong and it wouldnāt count against you, but my understanding was that it would count against you since itās a test you were approved for but supposedly havenāt finished since it hasnāt been marked complete.
It wouldnāt count against you 
fyi, tagging ribblr twice isnāt a good idea (since they get lots of notifications) :]
Oh, I thought they only got tagged once per response, and I wanted them to know specifically what I was asking them to respond to.
Guess I didnāt have the ability to check if theyād get 2 notifications if I referred to them twice. Iāll take your word for it and learn something new. Thx
not sure, but i think you can js replace one of the tags with ribblr without the @. wait lemme try to tag you twice- @WalktoCrochet

Thatās good to know. I was asking about this too as Iāve got two patterns left from unresponsive designers, one which says its overdue by several days (though isnt, they just set the date wrong and Iāve completed it).
I think both of mine were where designers didnāt understand how testing worked on Ribblr as they both didnāt create group chats.
It stresses me out having one saying its overdue every time I open my testing area, but I wonāt delete it if leaving it there means my tester score wonāt go down!
got it :] and lolll np
