Hinoe's ideas for this feature

Pass #1

On the current list of achievements

Anime achievements:
- Add: Leiji's anime watched.
- Add: Tezuka Osamu's anime watched.
- Add: Legend of Galactic Heroes watched.
  - This one was already semi-denied, but I'd still like it considered since it's a franchise bigger than average, highly complex, filled with hundreds of characters, old as dirt (all of the aforementioned disliked by the average anime watcher, who would rather skip those and watch recent short no-brainer tsundere loli shows with Kugimiya Rie voicing the "urusai, urusai, urusai!" lead), and still a top 10 show.

Statistical achievements:
- Edit: Granted creqs: add a second special constraint.
  - New constraint: requires both the difference between granted and denied and a ratio between them, instead of just the difference.
  - Example ratios for levels 1-8: 1, 3, 5, 8, 12, 20, 30, 50.
  - How that would work: a level 8 person would need 5555 granted for 555 denied; if they had one more granted and one more denied, they would be set back to level 7. Currently, one more granted and one more denied would keep them at level 8.

One-time achievements:
- Edit: adding favorites to userpage: add special constraint.
  - Special constraint: minimum of 3 areas with at least 10 favorites each, plus minimum of 50 overall favorites.
- Edit: add buddies: becomes statistical achievement.
  - Example amounts for levels 1-8: 1, 3, 5, 8, 12, 20, 30, 50; no special constraint (?).

Special achievements:
- Add: creativity: having several good ideas related to the improvement of AniDB.
- Add: bug hunting: finding and reporting many bugs.
  - The name sucks, taking suggestions.

New kind of achievements: Mod activity achievements:
- Achievements on great jobs done by AniDB staff.
- List of great jobs pending brainstorms.
- Given TO staff members. Contrast with mod achievements, that are given BY staff members.

On the current idea section

I generally like the ideas, but most of them need some work done on them before they enter the list.
- Willing to sit and talk with whomever's in charge (worf?) in order to get them done.

Other ideas

Take the Haruhi image from the "joined a club" achievement to the "created a popular club" one.
- The "joined a club" achievement would get another school club related image. Still not sure what.
  - A first idea was Higurashi-related, possibly from a punishment game, but I don't think it works really well, so I'm trying to think of something else.

Notes

I know deridiot doesn't really want anime-specific images for the general, but it's not like we have many better choices.

If we can have Pokemon, Digimon, and Dragon Ball, we can bloody well have LOGH.

Watched Badges

1) I think a LOGH badge is not a bad idea. It is certainly special enough to be considered and I for one would applaud the use of badges to encourage watching old / obscure / rare / gems anime.

2) Leiji's anime: same as the logh comment

3) Tezuka Osamu's Anime: Same as logh comment

Statistical Achievements:

1) I like the idea of a creq badge with ratio. Ratio is a more honest representation imo.

One Time Achievements:

1) The special constraint for adding favorites to the userpage seem good to me. Not everyone should get the badge for adding some random entries.

2) Adding budies becoming statistical: I actually wouldn't do this. It encourages people to send out random buddy requests to everyone and his mom. I don't believe we want to encourage this sort of behavior.

Special Achievements:

1) Creativity Badge: I have nothing against it but I wonder if it'll be used at all. The only way to hand this badge out is by way of a mod. In which case the mods personal badge could be used. I'm not sure but I doubt the mods want a whole array of badges to pin on everyone.

2) Bug Hunting Badge: I actually proposed this myself a few days ago. I would like this but I am at a loss on how to make it work. The only way I see this working is if the bugtracker is linked to it. That would mean the "checker" should have access to the tracker and check for bugreports that get acknowledged or something like that? For a name I have no clue Bug Hunter works imo.

Mod activity achievements:

1) While I like the idea. Again how would this be controlled / worked with?

I'm gonna try and append my idea's to this page or create a related page or something soon. Please to check those aswell and give feedback.
