Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
not actually posting an achievement, just wanted to stop by and say that this is one of the coolest ideas I've seen in 2 years on the forums.
Very neat way of adding life back to the ladder, and trying to spark up some creativity and friendly competition with friends :]
Posting to say that the leaderboard has been updated again, and Shaneghoul is still in the lead with an impressive 84 points! Following directly behind Shane is Peli with 56 points, and Silver Aurum with 50. Only 4 days left in this cycle to catch Shane, can somebody do it?
This cycle is finished, and we have a winner! Congratulations to Swagalge for coming in first with a crazy 116 points! Congrats to Shaneghoul and Silver Aurum for coming in 2nd and 3rd place, with 95 and 83 points respectively. Thanks to everyone who made this first cycle a huge success, and let's hope the following cycles will have similar, or even more activity! The next cycle will begin in a few days, with a ton of brand new challenges added on to the already pretty long list. If you have any ideas for potential challenges, please PM me either on here or on PS! and we can discuss adding it to the next cycle. Cheers!
The 2nd cycle will span from April 7th - May 7th. Along with this, there are a whole bunch of new challenges for you guys to try and achieve, along with the already long list of existing challenges. Huge thank you to Based Sexy Pants for sending me tons of ideas, without you it would have taken even longer for me to get this cycle going again. The leaderboard has been reset, and this cycles winner is totally up for grabs. Good luck laddering!
Here is a list of all the new challenges, for those wondering:
1. Unarmed and Unprepared
2. Stuck in the Mud
3. Burd is the Word
4. CASED VICTORY
5. Need for Speed
6. This will take a while...
7. This will take a very long while...
8. This is my Last Resort!
9. Trump Card
10. !Promotion
11. False Hope
12. Luck > Skill
13. Perfection
14. Status Update
15. Gotcha!
Also, to clarify any confusion: you are 100% allowed to re-do past achievements you have already completed in the previous cycle, in fact this is actually encouraged if you really want to win.
Thanks for the shoutout Aurosis. Really looking forward to getting to complete some of these tomorrow. Just wanted to point out some typo's on the Achievements. In Platinum Tier, Great Wall of China misspells conscious as concsious. In Ultimate Tier, False Hope was misspelt as Flase Hope. Other than that looks great!
