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

I'll just update the board. Wish I could let you do your own, it would be easier :D I'll keep my eyes peeled and hopefully keep things updated.

I know, it is a tad annoying! You still getting on with it ok? Does it get better further in? I got a bit bored of it.

No gaming for me in the past couple days, but Saboteur has arrived and hopefully ill have some time to play that.

225 points on Fable 2

@HM... not sure what that makes my total from when I started this. My overall gamerscore is now 18076 though. Might be easier if I could maintain my own score on this thread but unfortunately I can't.

Okay, I've updated that for you.

I've also updated mine as I got 70 more points on Sega Rally. Pretty close to the end of the main Championship mode, which will net me a fair few points and that'll leave the time attack times to beat and some online stuff.

It's nice to be scoring points on a regular basis after putting a few months work into Tiger Woods 07 and getting little back. Almost at 14,000 total now.

EDIT - And I'm now over 14,000 after another 220 points on Sega Rally. Finished the Championship mode so it is just time trials and some head to head and online stuff left.

Oh yeah... got another 15 points on AvP before I sent it back. 60 in total from it and not something I intend on completing at all. I really only wanted it for the MP but I could hardly get a game and when I did there were only 4 players.

Hopefully I'll get a nice kids game next, need something easy but fun!

How many in total Dav, as I just want to make sure I add it up correctly.

Hope you aren't too shaken - saw your post in WLT :/

No gaming for me last night, but should be getting WKC and Saboteur in the next day or two and then i can hopefully get more Trophies and Achievements.

I took AvP off my list, i didnt like the demo, so i thought i would rather get something else, might get it at a later date when there is a dry spell on games.
