I.e. you'll be permanently disqualified from taking that achievement.
Ahhh, right. I don't recall any of those other then "special event achivements" that only work during holidays like Halloween and what not.

It was a big boat, so I wasn't really in danger. The worst bit was when I woke up while walking what I later discovered to be two floors down from where I was sleeping, and on the other side of the boat. While being glared at by a security guard.

What other achievements are there?
Oh. I'll download Skype then, I'll try to join you as soon as I finish my Physics Paper.

I'm sort of left scratching my head at this. I think they were first playing around with them for the original xbox, right?

How do you make those? They're pretty cool. Although the Maturity one was not the same as my description.

Do you get a gold version if you have more than that?

I'm practising using Illustrator.
It was too long to fit it in the description, so I went with the nearest reference I could get.
Are there gold versions of achievements? I don't own a XBox, so I don't really know.

Already had used her for memetic personae (her shipping kinda became memetic).

If my icon was in that I would totally sig it. Unless it was too big. I don't know how to tell how how large an image is.

Aw, you mean there isn't a website where you just supply the image and the text? Aw, I could have had fun with that.
I don't now either, I don't have an Xbox.
Wait, that was me? Awesome!

I will avoid that one. The shipping thread terrified me when it had me locked up in a dungeon and being abused by another playgrounder. Scary stuff that was. :smalleek:

It's smaller than my anime week sig (which was from where I got the measurements. So I suppose it's ok.

Nope, I do have a template however.
Make something an achievement and people start complaining about it's occurrence and start rejoicing on it. BlueCat

I fail to grasp anything after "The shipping thread terrified me". Probably for the good of my sanity.

Actually, I think I'll use the first one, but how many pixels high is it? Also, how many pixels high is the ninja train banner?

The ninja train is exactly the max unspoilable size. This one is about half it's height.

Re: Cynical Avocado's Absolutely Admirable Accumulation of Random Bantering #165
It's within forum rules limits.
Also you can check the information of a picture by right clicking on it and at the bottom of the options click on ''Image info'' a variant there of.(Not sure of exact translation, since my computer is in Dutch.)

Ah, but it says

The total height of images in your signature may not exceed 120 pixels. This may be comprised of one or more images.
So I'd still need to use a spoiler.

Indeed. It probably can be found in the annals of the shipping threads. I suggest that no one go looking for it unless they want their deepest darkest nightmares fulfilled.

You had to say where to find it...

Reverse psychology perhaps?
ION: A bookshelf fell on my arm today. WTH?
ONION: I have two bookshelves, each of which I double stack the books on some of the shelves since I have so many. To remove both from my room I had to take out all the books, remove the bookshelves, and then put all the books back in again. I had to do the same thing today in reverse. Now I'm going back to finish up filling my room again. Hugs!

No, the Xbox 360. Achievements on the 360 each give a number of Gamerscore points (which serve no purpose other than gamer-cred), and a user's Gamerscore total is visible on their Live profile. Eventually, everyone else jumped on the bandwagon and achievements became a meme.
Oh, and there are no such things as 'gold' achievements. At least, not for Live or Steam.

Re: Cynical Avocado's Absolutely Admirable Accumulation of Random Bantering #165
I think I've achieved all the aforementioned achievements. Not sure about the Pillar of Community one though.

Re: Cynical Avocado's Absolutely Admirable Accumulation of Random Bantering #165
Hmmm, I've got some of those achievements. Self loathing goes for my first post ever. By complete accident it was a double post. Oh the embarrassment.
I'm pretty sure I got the Acceptance one a while ago, particularly around SMBG, though I don't frequent there much more. I know I have Pillar of the Community due to the response I got the first time I left in a dramatic fashion. Though I don't know if you guys talk about me when I'm not around. Maturity I got a while ago, I think perhaps when I was a Bugbear itp.
The only one I don't think I have is the memetic one. I don't recall ever having created anything that got remotely close to being a playground meme, unless you count getting eaten on the Kiss or Kill thread, largely due to my steak avatar.

Wanna try who can swap through the greatest amount of avatars before running out? Odds are I'll be the one having to draw new avatars so as to not lose.

Errr...well I don't have too many. I have this steak, the grilled steak, the flambe steak, the hussar (thank you again), the silver angel, and a Rob Halford angel. I suspect that a guy who can make avatars will easily best me.

Yeah, those who have avataring talent have an unfair advantage here. But I'll take you on.

I believe this will end as a post by post game rather than Random Bantering so I'm gonna unload everything on one go...

That's mostly it for me.
18 avatars, some more probably on hold somewhere...
