The 20,000 point GamerScore Challenge. Many websites like to follow the progress of gamers and the most common way of doing so is by monitoring the number of GamerScore (GS) points (gained by unlocking achievements) a player has.

I put this challenge to you. My individual goal (HM) is to increase my GS by 20,000 points by September 1st 2010. As this seemed a popular idea, many freeola users have jumped in with their own personal challenges.

If you are interested in joining the challenge, just post your target score and how many points you are away (or just a target amount), along with your Gamertag and I'll put you on the board below.

Keep posting updates when you unlock achievements. The best way (and most manageable) would be to post the game title and the number of points achieved from the start date of your target. For instance: if I had a Viva Pinata and unlocked 600 points, I would post: "Viva Pinata - 600 points".. Points gained from before the target date do not count.

LAST UPDATE - gr13ve - 8 games - 695 points

Lets see how we get on...

HM - 20,000 point increase

Unfortunately not - basically one long list with priority settings. Can't seem to find a way of setting lists.

Really annoying when you hav 5 games on high priority and they send you a low priority DVD :(

HM are you not able to set up multiple lists and choose how many discs come from which?

For example on LoveFilm i have 3 lists, a games, a DVD/Blu Ray and a Tv Series one, with a DVD coming from each list, this seems to work best for me and if i am short on DVD's i want then i can switch to having 2 games!

Anyway, i have gone and picked up some points on various games, i will update it now, playing Ninety Nine Nights, but achievements are not very easy to pick up on it!

Got about 500 points in total for FIFA South Africa, best i have done with a game for a while!!

So finally have sent back GRID. Haven't finished it by a long shot, but will hire it again some time. 255 points in total :)

I wonder if I will get another 2 games this time, or the dregs of my priority list... hmmm...

Hopefully games!

Playing through the Race Pro career mode and that is time consuming so no points payoff on that quite yet.

Felt like I needed some points so I got an achievement on Outrun for 20 points.
