coan.net: Aye.... For a perfect game, it would be a one in a well... big odds.

Near perfect points though.. rare, but not impossible.

joshi tm: Yes, why not? If everybody want do achievements, nobody will want do black achievements, but sometimes we can do it against our intention, so why not create both?

joshi tm: Sorry, but ridiculous was your understanding. The goal would be don't achieve an achievement, of course. Besides, my idea is very usual in others situations. In USA, you have Oscares for the best movie, for the best actor, for the best actress, etc., and in the day before, there's an event where is choosed the worst movie, actor, actress, producer, etc. Of course, nobody want be the worst actor and actress, right?

And about my idea, i can understand that block users by 5 or 10 players, block users in 5 discussion boards are bad ideas or dubious ideas, but 10 consecutive lose games (with or without time-out), 5 or 10
consecutive lose games (with or without time-out) in same type of game, etc. would be interesting...

Subject: Re: Unlikely archievements.
joshi tm: I understand your point, but that can be a dubious question. I don't want make "1000 moves in 1 day". However, you would want say that an archievement is a good thing (something like a guiness book lol) and my proposal is the contrary. :)

But if we're created achievements, so why not create bad achievements or something like that? Block users by 5 or 10 players; block users in 5 discussion boards; block users 5 times in the same discussion board; 10 consecutive lose games (with or without time-out); 5 or 10 consecutive lose games (with or without time-out) in same type of game.

So, is it a good idea?

Fencer: And about blocked users? It would be interesting explorer that. Blocked users by 5 or 10 players, for example. lol. I think nobody knows the number of players that block us, so would be a surprise...Well, I don't know if this is a great archievement, but i would like to see it. :)

AbigailII:

Score max possible points on all of Dice Poker, Triple Dice Poker, Dice Poker 6D and Triple Dice Poker 6D. ------ That would be hard, if not almost impossible. I would be surprised if anyone has gotten the "max" points. Maybe Fencer can look through the database to find out what the highest score in all those games are, then make an achievement between 50-100 points below that max as the achievement. (of course each game would be a little different.)

Hrqls: I have read and read and read.....Still . no reply from the one who can do anything about it. The man who controls the money and the site. The man who can fix this stupid loop that has 1200 people stuck in a moving situation for the last year or so. I for one,,if it doesnt get resolved will not be back. Even Pat at IYT is not this careless with his site. And he is one dumb,,,never mind. I for one do not want to play with a player who offends the system and abuses it while the management and wonership of this site lets it happen. You have polling on this site, lets use it. Lets be democratic about it. All in favor of getting 35 more vacation days a year by buying another years membership and also the following year get another 35 for free say YES,, All others who believe that one should only get 35 days a year max no matter how many memberships he buys in a yearsay NAY. Its that simple. And if it gets voted down and the Nays win,,then vacation days should be revoked. Do even FOREVER Brain Rooks get unlimited vacations in a year???? I think not.

Fencer: I read complaints about the site regularly, and yes, this issue can use some attention. Frustruating for paying members, but a small thing in a big picture.
What I don't often read is a thanks to you and Liquid for all your hard work and all you do for the site.
You must get so many complaints and PMs on a daily basis, and yet you still reply to us. Don't know of any other site owners who do this.
So thank you Fencer! I have been here since 2004 and will probably always stay a member. Still my favorite game site-blows most other right out of the water!
Just wanted you to read a nice post today!
Thanks!
