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.

I keep having a trend of going through a game until i get bored and not trying to get some of the more difficult achievements, means the points do not come as quick but i keep interested more lol.
Picked a couple more up off South Africa 2010, but working towards the big ones through the main game "Captain your Country" enjoying it, but on Semi-Pro i have not had any trouble so far

Well done Hedfix...miles better than me.
Just wish I had the time to play - loads of points available, but so little time! Still think I will make a push for the 20k and reach my goal. Just need to find time to game!

Oops.
I've put your points in and added them all up with a calculator. I've got you at 19,160 Hedfix, so you are 840 short.
Update:
Lego Indiana Jones: 125
Shadowrun: 20
Red Faction:G : 45
Ice Age 3: 230
PDC Darts: 100
Cameron's Avatar: 140
Band Hero: 755
Rock Revolution (EU): 60
Tiger Wodds 07: 30
Trials HD: 30
Nascar 09 (EU): 125
Tiger Woods 08: 195
Gears of War 2: 90
Dark Void: 880
So that's an extra 2825 which puts me 225 points off my goal!

I have a few more from GRID. but to avoid confusion on later achievements, I'll post them when I send it back...which will be this week sometime!
Picked up some on SEGA Tennis, and a couple more on FIFA, so pushing on a bit better at the moment, got Reconisance of Fate coming today so i will give that a whirl, hopefully its fun!
I am now about 70% through level 5 in Trophies so i reckon i will clear my task of level 6 by September!

Haha, only having the one console helps, but thanks :D. I have the feeling that Katamari Forever is going to be one of my lowest scoring trophy games as so far it's incomprehensible, and not the sort of fun game I was expecting, it's more frustrating. I may give it another shot tonight, though.

Still playing GRID, but not sure on my score.
