Achievements!

A guy in my class once said, when you make something and want it to succeed, give it achievements. Whether it's the latest game or just Excel or Word.


Okay so Atrim tried to start this once, where we got awarded points and things for stuff

Well i've been having a poke around and discovered that the points system, which i thought was completely automatic, can also be controlled and awarded manually!

So this shall be the list of achievements and their worth, as usual, it's up in the air, open to discussion.
ScreamingHawk has graciously offered to be the other guy working on this so show him some brony love~

I intend for these to be retroactive as well but that'll take time, so dont expect it just yet.

SO. This is still up in the air and is totally not balanced, but here's what i have so far:

• General
  
  • playing in a game:5 points
    
  • modding a game:25 points
  
  
  
• Gameplay
  
  • getting modhammered / not participating:-5 points
    
  • winning:1 point
    
  • player of the match:3 points
  
  
  
• Outstanding
  
  • win 3 consecutive games:5 points
    
  • win 5 consecutive games:10 points
    
  • mod 3 consecutive games:5 points
    
  • Feels Bad Man(lose 5 consecutive times):5 points
  
  
  
• One off
  
  • The Cheese Stands Alone(last player standing):10 points
    
  • I'm a survivor, I'm gonna make it...(won as survivor):10 points
    
  • Uber me Doc!(Got saved by a doctor/angel):10 points
    
  • Honey came in and she caught me red-handed...(investigated as miller):10 points
    
  • Jibber jabber(have a post of every page of a game:10 points
    
  • Slayer of Demons(be on the wagon of every mafia lynch and no town lynches of a game):10 points
    
  • Stop right there, criminal scum!(As cop reveal a mafia member and lead the lynch against them):10 points
    
  • We are the champions!(win as town without losing a single team member):10 points
    
  • The day you ALMOST lynched Jack Sparrow!(Lynch a member of an opposing faction after being at one vote to lynch that day):10 points
    
  • Kenny(be the first to die):10 points
    
  • Untouchable(win a game without being killed or having a single vote placed against you):10 points
    
  • The tribe has spoken(be lynched day 1):10 points
    
    

So this is totally an in progress of every single game:Mafia Games Google Doc

Added a whole bunch. How we going to regulate this? And starting from now or from the start of forum existence?

and the whole regulation thing is not quite figured yet. i'd say a bit of everything? Like i'd add the points because i have to(i'm assuming kelsey cbf's too much), but i cant find every single one on my own, so either people can report their own that they've achieved, like submit it in this thread maybe, or we'd just find it eventually. as for keeping track of who has what.... google docs spreadsheets? and we can give read access to everyone and just write access to us two and admin. one spreadsheet for one off achievements and one spreadsheet (which i'm halfway through) keeping track of everyone's games.

Sounds good. I think self report is the best way to handle this. That way we only need to care about this for those that care.
As for the doc, think a spreadsheet would work best and add commenting allowed for those with link and then post the link here.

Why is there no achievement for triple and quadraple posting

(I'm not huge on achievements, especially if it creates huge work for you here, but if you're already well into it then I guess it's no different recording my stats along the way. If it gets difficult feel free to drop me though. I'm normally a stickler for 100% completion, actually. I think my mind blocks out achievements for my mental health.)

What about instead of all this we just say mod get 20 (or so) points per game and then mod gets 40 (or 5*playerCount) or so)) points to disperse between the players based on performance and excellence, and + 5 for each winning player.

Or even simpler rank each player out of {some value} and then add points for wins.

Just throwing ideas out there. Still think that it's easier to just have mod for each game report points.

I think the only problem with this is...why will people care about how many points they have?
It could work, but if people just don't care it's just going to be a lot of pointless effort on your part.
If other people reading this actually would care, please say so and then I will shut up.

Likewise if people don't care then please say so.

I might just do like special mentions at the end of my games as a replacement for this then.

either way i'm going to continue that spreadsheet because i like it.

and none of the idea need to be mutually exclusive neither

Sounds good. Needs more one-off achievements though heheheh...
