BrokenLegacy-- Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Cross site Competition (XboxAchievements.org and PST.org)- Why can't a custom list be done cross site to see which site gets more member sign ups. The list could be completed by staff on both sides using trophies/achievements available on both consoles. I don't think they do custom lists over there do they? So this would be a unique experience for them, and also fun for us. Didn't that THL we did with them go over smoothly enough? It's about time for another X site isn't it? Build A Custom List Suggestions- Custom lists have 12 trophies per list each, which is more than enough and would entice people to do them. I mentioned this before but didn't get any feedback. Tiered Custom List Awards rather than an award for each list. There really doesn't need to be an award for each list considering only a handful of people will probably get the award. ^see above, too many games on each list. Also, Too many awards in general really. Edited July 3, 2015 by BrokenLegacy-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Naruto Shippuden Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I don't think there should be a custom list competition between the sites. I like it the way they are now and aimed at the community instead of turning it into competitiveness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And being more fun, more people would want to complete it. They do custom lists. XBA Achievements List | XboxAchievements.com That's been around for quite a while, actually. Didn't know that. Well, there you go. Why not do it then? Edited July 3, 2015 by BrokenLegacy-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendel Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 The last cross site competition was more trouble than it was worth. I think going forward we're just going to do our own thing and let them do theirs. I don't really see the benefit of taking away customized awards for each list in favor of a generic tier award.

BrokenLegacy-- Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 There was a cross-site competition a couple of years back but I seem to remember that it didn't go well so I'll let the EDs/Vy explain more. Ah, Okay. I didn't compete, i just came up with the idea. Didn't know it didn't go very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Naruto Shippuden Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Ah, Okay. I didn't compete, i just came up with the idea. Didn't know it didn't go very well. Caused a few bans and flaming too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjc0961 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Caused a few bans and flaming too. Yeah, but that alone isn't a reason to not do it again. The shitheads were banned, so they obviously won't be coming back to do it again next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinworldwide Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I missed the last x site competition, so i would gladly see a new one. However i'd rather have another one involving trophies/achievements than custom lists tbh. The tiered awards isn't a good idea imo. You said yourself that not many people are completing these lists, so if you take away those amazing award tiles that some of them have, there might be even less incentive for some people. I know i want that Zelda triforce! (too bad i'm not even close on Xander's list lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha I didn't even realize they did that, though I'm pretty sure we started ours first. EDIT: Oh it was 2013, so maybe not. Anyway, clever way to use the site's list functionality to build them. Wish we had thought of that when we started ours. Edited July 4, 2015 by Vyrastas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don't really have a desire to do it now, unless Shadow or Mendel want more work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
