anybody else notice that 2 players from one country seem to get the same achievement almost simultaneously? I don't see how the sense of 'achievement' is felt there to be honest.

Fencer: Just add a minimum number of played games or moves (just in case someone likes to have 100 anti-backgammon games and finishes none) to win it

El Cid: It would be quite easy for users that play just 1 or none at all games during the year.

It has been suggested before (even if it was as a joke...). Why not an achievement for not spending an hour of vacation (with auto-vacation mode on) during the whole year, or if it's easier to "achieve" don't lose a game by timeout during a year

joshi tm: Well, whenever you have to click, it's not the Autopass :)

Gror: The funny thing is, I earned the achievement, I think for a game WITH auto pass ;)

In this game, Kloongammon (goseji - joshi tm) my opponent has the doubling cube, so he always has a move - double or not -, 10 times he rolled the dice and failed to move out, and I earned my 10 Achievement points ;) Apperantly the system counts rolling the dice or doubling as a move, so even in an Autopass game you can win the achievement :D

joshi tm: Fencer doesn't like the Autopass option at all

Why, has Auto-pass to be set off to earn the Stick Around Achievement?

The Col: Amazing!

: Thanks

Yesterday I was top mover
It shoud by my #57, but on my achievements still #56

Gror: Thanks

Universal Eyes: You must ask Fencer personally ... I guess these things came to pass before the Achievements acion...

coan.net: I still haven't received recognition for these achievements.

Captured pawn

Purchase a Brain Rook membership level.
I want you to play
Buy a paid membership for another user.
Rook sponsor
Buy a Brain Rook membership level for another user.

coan.net: Thanks. I thought I read something like that a year or so ago.

Marshmud: It also depends on how you got the black rook I believe - I know I don't have that achievement since I took advantage of the "1/2" price deal, which is not in the database the same as a true black rook... or something like that. I think it was discussed in this board awhile back.

Marshmud: If you don't have some bonuses from the Achievements, post a message to Fencer directly. He answers pretty fast

Does anyone know when the achievement bonus begun? I have so many I have achieved without the bonus like the Lifetime dedication or the Black Rook that has a 50 point bonus. I see other Black Rooks have the bonus. I think we go a few years back, but this achievement was in the past year.

GT: Sound cool, but that can't be much points because that happens pretty often.

maybe there could be an achievement for when a King kills his intended assassin

...there's still no achievements like: Aquire 2000 poker chips, aquire 5000, 10000, 50000, 100000, 1000000, etc.?

2/10 Win 100 public tournaments in 10 games -> should be 3/10 (Connect6, Five in line, Pente)
9/50 Win 50 public tournaments in 50 games -> should be 15/10 (Connect6, Line4, Dice Chess, Five in line, Pro FiL, Swap FiL, Keryo Pente, Open Keryo Pente, Open Pente, Linetris, Small Keryo Pente, Small Pente, Spider Line4, Pente, Spider Linetris)

These are preliminary calculations.

aaru: OK - I did a quick run through - just trying to figure out where the difference comes from.... ???

coan.net: Most of them are elimination tournaments.

aaru: Do you happen to know how many of those games public tournament wins are just elimination tournaments?

I'm just curious if maybe Fencer never programmed it to count those towards the goal.

Everyone can make mistakes;)

aaru: You have played and won so many tournaments, it would be hard for most of us to double check for you!

I guess I would just ask, are you sure they were all "public tournaments". From my understanding, won "fellowship tournaments" would not count toward this total.

I made a mistake in my calculation?
Please help me.

lizrising: You lost... but you had more points, which usually means you've won... It's a bug indeed

rod03801: The one mentioned below was the only one I finished today. Looking back through my event messages, it looks like the last time I won a Froglet game of any type was November 24th (and I did have blue frogs).

lizrising: Yeah, looks like a bug. You lost, but you did indeed not jump any blue frogs. Did you maybe finish another game right at around the same time, and that achievement was for that one?

I just got the Against a Bluescreen achievement, but I don't think I should have. I got the notice after I finished this game: Anti Froglet (lizrising vs. elio80) This is an Anti Froglet game that I lost. I checked all the Froglet and Sphere Froglet games that I have won (it's not that many) and I have never won without jumping a blue frog.

Thanks

"25 won tournaments of 50 game types
Win 25 public tournaments in 50 games.
50 / 50"

50 from 50 it means that this ona should be passed... Am I wrong?

Maybe it's a bit stupid, but how about an achievement (or a group of them), for getting, 100 achievement points, 500; 1000; etc

Resher: Possibly, at least it's there now :o)

I'm trying to achieve a few more but i've got a long way to go on most of them now lol.

furbster: Looks like you have!  Perhaps there's a bit of a delay between you earning it and the system recognising it - maybe it checks once a day?

how come i haven't got this achievement?
http://brainking.com/en/Achievements?p=1&aid=39

Fencer: Thank's for achievements i receive this last couple weeks

El Cid: I guess not. It's just a record of what you managed to achieve. As you say, not a ranking table.

I know this is not exactly a ranking table, but shouldn't the players that have been removed by a certain time period be removed from the achievements list?

i rarely get 1 double 6 let alone 3 lol

Wahey! I finally got this achievement.  Shame I was sitting on the bar at the time with the 6-point made :-( 

[I didn't think it counted if they were passes, but apparently it does.]

Fencer: thanks

Snoopy: This kind of achievement is cursed and BrainKing sometimes refuses to recognize it. I will do it manually.

why i havnt got this achievement
even thou it says ive got 10/10
