FAQ: new achievements & XP system

Ce serait bien si vous pouviez donner des points pour Terra Mystica. It would be great if you would give points for Terra Mystica.

points are given for every game. You need to play in "normal" mode to earn points, not "training" mode

Accidentally found this out from my friend's page:
He played 21429 games, and he got a "COMMANDER IN CHIEF" badge, which is for "40000 victories on BGA".

That's so weird..........

In addition:
I've played so many real-time games before, and I still haven't get my "REALTIME GAMER" badge.
I've played more than 10 games before, and I still haven't get my "MULTITASKER" and "MULTITASKING SPECIALIST". I assume these two achievements are for playing that much of turn-based games simultaneously.
I've won more than 50 games overall, and I still haven't get my "50 BGA VICTORIES".
I've sponsored a person before, but no "SPONSOR" badge.

Wondering where are those...

Hi WiAiC,

Commander in Chief is given for 10000 victories, but the description was wrong.
Multitasker etc. are, as you supposed, for games played in parallel.
In general, achievements are being worked on at the moment. Some weren't distributed retroactively.

Does in parallel mean having like 10/30/100 tabs/browser windows opened?

Turn based games.
You need to have been in that many at once after April 30th.

I have taken turns in 40+ games and still haven't got the 30 one yet :/

I understand the reason for not counting Victories in training/solo mode.

But why are games played in training/solo mode counted as part of your win percentage. If wins aren't credited in training/solo mode then I don't think they should be credited as a loss for your win percentage.

Surely your win percentage should only be calculated on the number of normal games played.

I stand 100% for this comment.

Yeah, me too, but I'm sit down right now.

Are there any limitations to get TOP-1 award?

As far as I know, your ELO need to be higher than 300 to get TOP-X awards. Any additional one is needed?

I have checked the list of all players who played recently and ever got the TOP-1 award, my current ELO is higher than any of them, but I am still TOP-2. And yes, I have also played a few rating games to make sure it is updated.
Should I score higher than any of them ever scored disregard their rating is not actual now?

You need to reach the first rank?
