It should be fine.....most of the teams down there are recently scanned and a long way behind and we've a 19 team cushion... but if you can carry over to next week you may as well I guess!

Getting serious now, a pretty prolific streamer going out of the team this week by the looks of it (more his team mates fault than his but still)

Yeah I'm happy we're ok now. Was a little worried for a bit, and I only managed to get 50-odd TA in reserve.

Can You Tell Me How To Get?
End the scoring period having spelled the alphabet (26 letters) using the 1st character of newly unlocked achievements (no umlauts or other special characters allowed)


I'm out. It was hard enough finding an X last time.

Well done again you guys. I knew that last team bonus was beyond us after a short think. We’ve been spamming the easy cheevos and plan to cheese it to the (probably soon) bitter end. That said, I overestimated the competition and ended the week quite comfortably having thought that the line would rise by roughly 1k each week and was happy not to have to use a bonus.

Not something to worry about. At least one is an attempt to pull off what we discussed, winning one week and then giving up. As 16k was everything they had.....think a fair few have decided enough is enough looking at things like that and the forums.

I’ve decided I can’t be strawberry floated with the bonus

It's weird, if you get to this point you're doing pretty well. Why would you jack it all in now? I guess if you're not enjoying it anymore then that makes sense.

Would be pretty harsh to go for it and then not win the week. Surely the end of the week would be the best time to use everything.

Yeah, if we're going to win a week I want it to be on merit not on dropping a big pile of bonuses. Gotta keep going for now. :-)

What’s merit though....I mean fine one to talk as the very concept of Minecraft is so far from my idea of fun is a game I’d never normally play and baffles me but whys running around 4 achievement worlds unlocking the same achievements all setup perfectly for you more noteworthy than using several bonus’ you’ve worked hard to earn? I can see why you’d see it as cheap but the whole competition is a mix of skill time money and cheap tactics.

A little disappointing that the new Street Fighter Collection has such a limited achievement list but at least it looks like I might finally 100% a Street Fighter title :o
