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

I got a few achievements last night to take me up to 340 points on Fable 2 which means I have a mere 7394 points to go to reach my 25,000 target.

You are SAS Duck, aren't you?
Was a LONG time ago when I set it up (talking nearly 2 years). Even I forgot about it!
Up to 65 points on Bayonetta (35 more - yay). Killing that huge boss thing was an achievement, as was completing that level.
Still unsure about it though - love playing the immense battles, but feels like my controller is getting a lot of wear and tear.

Got a few trophies on MAG last night, it is one where most the trophies come from a long time of playing as it as online game!
Not the best for it but still loads of fun lol

Right...going to defeat the boss that seems to never die on Bayonetta tonight. There HAS to be an achievement for it somewhere!
150 points from PGR3 and that is that game (achievement wise) finished. Just need some online races for the last in game badge but it is back to PGR4 for my racing now.
I'm pleased to finish PGR3. The cone challenges are trial and error torture to get platinum on but you get the sense of achievement afterward.
I also fixed my trueachievements account. A good day so far. :D

Yesterday I got the "1000 players online at once" achievement on NBA Live 07 for 100 points.
Still haven't taken Lego Indy 2 out the box. Should get some GS for that but I'll need to get some time to play it.
I need to get some achievements, all the games i have been playing are not that good for these, MAG is going to be slow on getting Trophies! Hopefully they will start to roll in soon
Gah only 5 more points from Bayonetta.
Actually getting quite into it now. Still no light from foo-foos but I shall overlook that disappointing fact :p
Really stuck on a HUGE boss fight. Taking forever to do and accidently clicked "no" when it asked if I wanted to continue after dying, so lost moy progress in the entire battle (near the end as well).
Sending back Kartz today in the hope to have another game by Wednesday/Thursday. Hopefully by then I will have made some headway with Bayonetta.
