Achievement Unlocked was a Just For Fun forum, now located in The Archive.
History
Achievement Unlocked was a rewards-type game, where users did certain things to "achieve" an award. Originally, there were 101 achievements, listing from achieving certain amounts of posts to becoming a moderator. Each achievement had a certain amount of points that you got from it. In total, there were originally 1000 points. Eventually it was pointed out that there was actually 102 achievements.
Later on, Dracophile decided to create an "Expansion Pack" of 25 more achievements totalling 250 more points. These new achievements were based on suggestions from users, and ones Dracophile came up with himself. This expansion pack was nicknamed "MCCP Achievements Expansion Pack - Gettin' Frigid With It".
Dracophile had later promised for one more expansion pack, but it was halted after this JFF forum died down and became less popular.
How It Worked
Each user who participated in the Achievement Unlocked forum posted their own thread of achievements in the "Achievement Tracking & Progress" sub-forum, listing which achievements they had unlocked. Most users also totalled the amount of achievements they unlocked, and their points. There was also a spot in everyone's profiles for entering how many achievements you had unlocked, and how many points you had. You could also choose an Achievement Unlocked rank. The ranks were as follows:
- Achievement Junkie: You go for every achievement you possibly can, regardless of how easy or difficult it is. You're in it for the highest amount of points and the biggest number of achievements unlocked - in short you're #1 and everyone else is dead last.
- Casual Collector: You're not the competitive type like the Junkie. Rather than treat the forums as a crazy free-for-all you collect achievements as they come while you simply make yourself at home in the community. If an achievement doesn't apply to your talent, you make no effort to collect it.
- Expert Gamer: A balance between the Casual and the Junkie, you hunt for achievements but you only chase the elusive difficult red ones for bragging rights. You're willing to spend time grinding and waiting for those time-sensitive achievements to come around so you can proudly display a crimson collection.
- Non-participant: "These are stupid", you say. You choose to not keep track of your achievements and will probably leave your gamerscore and achievements unlocked fields at "0", regardless if you've unlocked some or not.
