DeaD man WalkiN: You can find it at your Profile / Achievements page. Completed achievements are shown with a light background, other ones with a dark background.

Fencer: OK, thxs for the help. I was just hoping to have them all listed on BrainKing.info. So that way a person could see them all and not have to go through everyone of the little list.

DeaD man WalkiN: Since BrainKing.info is located somewhere in USA and has no direct connection to BrainKing's database, it would have to be manually updated each time I add new achievements. It's not worth the effort.

Fencer: SORRY to here that.
Can U tell me is there an achievement for winning a game in 10 moves or less?

DeaD man WalkiN: I don't suppose so in general.  For example, all Cheversi games will be won in 8 moves exactly!  There might be for some other games though, I suppose?

DeaD man WalkiN: Ah, that seems more reasonable.  Not sure about the number 10 though.  6 out my 27 games this year have finished in under 10 moves, so I'd suggest a target of 7 or 8 moves as a worthy achievement.  My shortest game was a loss in 6 moves, but I'd rather forget that. (Bad loss)

Resher: Game length achievements regardless of the game just don't make much sense. Many games cannot even be finished after 10 moves (not taking resignments or draw offers into account), while for others it's impossible or unlikely to go beyond 10 moves.

For instance, having to take 10 guesses in Logic is a disgrace, but you won't be able to win a Halma 10x10 game in less than 10 moves.

But even if you make different game length achievements for different games, what to do with resignments? Surely, you don't want to give an achievement just for someone resigning early in the game; OTOH, you don't want people to get pissed at you for resigning a lost game (and they feeling bad for not getting some kind of achievement).
