Fencer: too late .. i am no #1 anymore ... it was fun while it lasted though :)

martes: That's only 1 match with 5 games, where are the other 4 matches?

martes: A lot.

I still have a question on achievements. I have started many new types of games since the inception of the achievements, and have won more than 10 games against unique opponents (and more than 10 moves) in several game types since then, yet, my number of games in which I've won "10 games out of 50 game types" remains stuck on 39... why is this? Here is just one example:

11 won games

10 of the 11 won games have 10 or more moves, but nothing has changed for my progress towards this achievement. Do these have to be public games? (not in a fellowship?) This has happened with several of my new game types already.

cd power: I think fellowship games do not count.

Pedro Martínez: I'm not sure now... I have 11 won games of massacre chess, each lasting more than 10 moves, against unique opponents, and not in a fellowship. But I was not given credit for those, either. I give up... I'll just keep playing.

How about a "Won the battles, but lost the war" achievement for winning all your games in a tournament, but still not winning overall?  This would apply to triple gammon tournaments only.

how about play 500 hands of texas no limit holdem and not have to refresh your chips?

aaru: I've won the same way, too. It's not so much an achievement as it a gross error in set-up by your opponent.

cd power: Yes, I know, I know
But it's funny :D

Are there any achievements yet to do with Stairs?  I don't have any ideas, just realised I haven't seen any.

Resher: Not yet.

so I just got http://brainking.com/en/Achievements?p=1&aid=205 by losing a game, not that I'm complaining that I got the achievement, I just like getting things for the right reason.

nodnarbo: This Achievement seems to apply also to Anti Froglet by mistake.

maybe its nice to have achievements in ludo like gammon and backgammon ?

- win a game of ludo while your opponent has still all its pieces in its base
- win a game of ludo while your opponent has still at least a piece in its base
- win a game of ludo while your opponent has no pieces in its home yet
- win a game of ludo while your opponent has not been on the board at all

and maybe some achievements with a certain number of passes or a certain number of captures, in 1 game or in total, or directly after another (in a row)

Pedro Martínez: ah yes, I had more points in a game of anti froglet, maybe it just checks which player has more points?

How about an achievement for forcing a smothered mate like this: Capablanca Random Schaken (joshi tm - El Cid) ?

Can anyone explain why the count for "10 won tournaments of 10 game types" is different than the count for "10 won tournaments of 50 game types?" As on my achievement page, one says 7, one says 9... shouldn't both say "9" ?? http://brainking.com/en/Profile?p=9&u=15438&gid=3

Small Fast Espionage (aaru vs. kelys)

I didn't receive Achievement "Rear of secret", why?
I received "First line hero" only.

aaru: Because your spies didn't start off from the back:
Place all spies to the last line (most distant from the enemy) and win the game.

pauloaguia: OK, I understand.
I'm stiupid. Spy not Sapper
Thanks

My account ( http://brainking.com/pl/Profile?p=9&u=10078&gid=3 ): 0/10
But I have (for example):
- 25 won public tournaments in Ludo (# 220975, 224035, 226171, 227377, 227540, 227901, 228550, 228644, 228945, 232021, 236544, 237144, 238305, 238563, 242417, 245118, 266431, 334243, 367068, 411514, 411768, 411894, 412020, 412188, 412440)
- 49 won p.t. in Line4
- others (Connect6, Five in Line, Pente)

Why?

aaru: There are many bugs with the achievements, as I have mentioned in several posts back in May. I have given up and hope it will be fixed for BK Version 3.

cd power: What "many bugs"? I am aware only of this one.

Fencer: Please see reported bug# 1901, and my two posts in this thread below on 5/27, and one post on 5/15.

And, here's another one: my current tournament achievements show that I have 10/10 won tournaments for the "25 won tournaments of 10 game types" when shouldn't it say 10/25? However, I actually have more than 10, similar to Aaru.

And another one: Why would it say 7/10 for the "10 won tournaments of 50 game types?" If I have at least 10 game types in which I have won 25 or more tournaments (more than 10 game types, actually), how is it possible that I have only 7 game types in which I have only won 10 tournaments? and FYI, I am well beyond 7 game types for which I've won 10 public tourneys.

cd power:i told Fencer the same but he is very busy with the release of new brainking ... just wait and i am sure all will be fixed ... without forgetting the wrong numbers of the winning fellowships or players in the team tournament

How about "make your opponent pass, in a hyper backgammon game"?

How about the achievement.

Meutegammon (Fencer - joshi tm)

Well, here's my 10000th completed BrainKing match. Most of them normal games of course, but why is there no completed games achievement? Statistic page say I have completed 10000 BrainKing games... why not granding achievement points for finishing 1000, 5000, 10000, 20000, 50000, 100000 BK-games?

Hello
I was on the top on monday, tuesday & yesterday.
Where is my achievement?

aaru: 7:08 am
I received it, thanks

why i didnt get this achievement http://brainking.com/en/Achievements?p=1&aid=99


when i won this tournament one year rook membership to the winner

Snoopy: It is not a public tournament.

Fencer: ah okay had a feeling that was the reason thou it should point out that in the acheivement description maybe..lol

Where are the accumulate # chips at poker achievements?

The first doubling cube tournament

Started October 16, 2005 and still in the first round

Czuch:
That would be the winner of the vacation achievement award

how long does it take for the achievements to show up. two of my acheivements still have not shown up. one hasnt registered in a few weeks and the other i did just today and still has not shown up. the 10/10 tourney achievment still is highlighted dark and the all spies in the back row is still reads 0/1. neither have i gotten credit for. what is wrong?

Small Espionage (drjohnj vs. Nothingness)

Nothingness: Nobody says that the achievement system is bug-free. It can happen sometimes, I'll look at it.

Regarding your Espionage game, I am not sure if the system acknowledged an achievement in case of resigned game. You know, I made it a long time ago and don't remember all details.

Fencer: Not a major problem, but i didn't get the achievement last week for winning 5 rounds at the same table in a row in poker.

Fencer: I know it does not count when a player times-out (I've been through that situation on a massacre chess game where I did not capture any queen in the first eight moves, and it seemed that I was going to win, but my opponent timed-out so no achievement), so probably on a resigned game it's the same, since both games ended up unnaturally
As for the "counting" of achievements (although it is not exactly an achievement problem), the system keeps mis-counting the won team tournaments (once a bug has been posted by pauloaguia, because the fellowship Tugas had won a tournament ,but still showed 0 victories, and we have won two tournaments (one of camelot Jan 2009 Coulrophobia (Camelot) - and one of portuguese checkes Hogfather, but only one of them was creditted to us. As a consequence this one does not count for the "won team tournaments achievement"

Fencer: actually i think it may be my mistake. the achievement is for sappers to be in teh back row not the spys. curoius though is that sappers generally are in the back row. and spys are normally in the front row so this acheivement is not very difficult. the achievement should have read "if you win a game with all of your spies in the back row" you gain the for mentioned achievement" Maybe that can be added as an achievement.

Nothingness: http://brainking.com/en/Achievements?aid=213t&p=1
Spies in the back row.

Fencer: no problem. you run a great site. and these kinds of things happen from time to time.

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

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