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...

I just won the NIGHT OWL badge. (it reads: "Are you sleeping sometimes ?")

I'm very proud of that but am still wondering what exactly I had to do to qualify.

I got it when I logged in tonight. Perhaps you keep late hours like I do? Most of the time I play very late.

Well, I was wondering how "extreme" one had to get to qualify....as over the course of a month's time, I might make moves in 22 of the 24 hours of a day that are available to me . But now I see that the hurdle to win NIGHT OWL is set as a reasonable height.

Given that I just got Night Owl, as well as a few other general BGA achievements, I think the requirement for getting night owl is actually quite lax, and we just hadn't gotten it before because the code was broken.

I just reached top 20 in Bobail but didn't get a trophy. Any idea why or how to get it? My elo is above 300 so I know that's not the reason. And I played another couple games to see if that would fix it but no luck. Thanks.

Hi JCam,

I'm currently working with BGA so I might shed some light here.

There are thresholds for the top elo achievements.
In order to gain the top 20 achievement for a game there need to be at least 1000 active players.
For the top 10 achievement the number of required players goes down to 300.

I checked for Bobail and there are currently 945 active players, so you could only get the top 10 achievement or invite 55 friends to play it

Night owl wasn't implemented until a few days ago
