Default Achievements - What do you want?

Hey guys,

As you might've seen, we've updated the achievements a few weeks ago. The goal is to add a lot more so you have more things to do than just grab points for the team. Since inspiration sometimes gets a bit lost and as this ultimately is for your pleasure, I'm wondering if you guys have suggestions for cool and nifty achievements.

Just reply in the thread if something comes to mind. Technically, anything HWBOT related should be possible (mem, mobo, scores, dates, etc etc).

What do you mean exactly with 'previous version'?

HW Junkie for 50 cups, etc etc ...

most of the new achievements are non-sense to me - I don't care if I have benched 50 Atis or 50 Nvidias

You mean the names?

The #(cups/medals) is still in the achievements.

I like them, but I used to be an Xbox360 achievement whore.

As Thor says, adding in the old ones for HW Junkie, HW Guru would be nice (or use them as a 'title' like Team captain on the profile pages)

Could have:
'Submitted results X different sockets'
'Entered X HWbot competitions'
'Broadcast a livestream'
'MaxxMem score under 10 points' (same as the AQ low score runs or SPi 32m slow run)

One thing you could do is have a check box on submissions for Mobo/GPU voltmods, then achievement:

'Submitted X results with voltmods and pictures'

I think Thor941 refers to the "HW Junkie" achievement etc... some ppl who own it back in the days were dissapointed to loose the title

Well I could suggest something about team/country/region awards or something refering to the HWboints level: like 50/100 for beginers and 200/300 for confirmed Ocers etc... blabla

Nice intention Massman thanks

Hm ... maybe we could get the HW junkie/guru back as an achievement depending on other achievements. So, if you get 5/10 in all points/medal series you're a 'junkie' or so ...

Agree about the Junkie reward. I've already suggested some achievements in e-mails but one I remember well:

"Socket yyy domination" or "Socket yyy king". For getting most boints on current socket type. For example, LGA775 or others. I think this should be applied only to rather usual one, bot like the AMD s539 or what it was?
Oh, yeah - and a "dual socket king" or "dual socket domination" as well - you can't achieve any good points on them since rev.3 so at least an achievement would be nice. But for desktop/WS socket only.

I'll try to remember some more.

Yeah I mean having the HW junky status for 50 cups and medal then you can put it on your sign, I don't remember the other ones, Extreme HW Junky for 50 golden cups I guess, OC Guru, OC Legend etc etc

Well it could be cool to have the most important status in the sign, as before, cause ATM if you don't go on the user profile, you can't see anything
