I disagree with the 5 achievement max to qualify for the bean dive. In Scene-It: Box Office Smash it is almost impossible to not earn more achievements in your first game unless you quit halfway through.
I earned 6 while playing one game session. |

| I got 11 achievements in your shape 2012, since I owned and completed the previous one. I hope it still shows up on my dive. |
Yes, I know I am. |

| I earned 5 in Scene It? and it now isn't showing as a bean dive game. |

| The original limit was one achievement, TA then stated he was upping it to four. I'm not sure where you got five from. |

| I don't bean dive myself as I see no point in it, so I could really be being silly by saying this but I don't know, I don't think I agree with any achievement limit, as long as you start the game does it really matter how many achievements you earn? |

| Looks like the couple of games I won more than 4 achievements have registered in the bean dive. |

| The idea of only getting one achievement is so you can accurately record your pre and post dive stats before beginning the climb back to your former glory. |

| Not quite, the idea of only getting one achievement is that by doing this, it would have maximum impact on your completion percentage. I don't know why there's a limit though, if it's on your list, it should count a s dived game. It may be to do with the way the site is now calculating Bean Dive stats and there may be a need to identify dived games from others. |

Are you sure that it hasn't counted those games? If you get more than a certain amount of achievements, sure it doesn't cluster in your friends feed like the others.
However, is it showing on your dive page with the green tick next to it? If it is, then it counts as dived. |

Check out my page...It is not clustered with the other bean dive games and there is no check mark next to Your Shape 2012. Since I had the old Your Shape game, it automatically gives you 10,000 calories (since I completed the first), so I got 11 achievements...plus it gave me other things that I did on the first, like community event, challenges, etc. I have no control over what pops.
I agree with BeanPotter, in that if you register for a game to dive, then you start it, no matter what it should count toward you dive. If you get more than one, you are only 'hurting yourself' as it will look like the dive didn't affect you as much.
You are still starting games on a day, and have a year to complete them, right? Does it matter when you start completing them?
Edit: Last night, Your shape was in a separate list on my feed, and I had no check mark. Not sure if TA fixed it, or if it corrected itself...but now it is added to my cluster, and it now has a check mark. Thanks to TA if he fixed it! |
Yes, I know I am. |

| As fas as I know, there's still the 5 ach limit. Hopefully we can change that going forward but that's how it is at the moment, sorry. |

I agree that the rules can be unfair for some games (music mostly). Hopefully this can be adjusted for the next go around. Likewise, you may need to plan more carefully when you are starting a game.
I know the Your Shape is unique, but most other games you plan a way to pop only an achievement or two. |

| I personally agree with the 5 achievement limit because (in my opinion) it creates more motivation to go back and play a game when you have less achievements, and it makes it more of a recovery process. Unfortunately, there will be some unique situations where a game essentially disqualifies itself from the dive. |
on the road to 95% completion! |

| As soon as you've finished diving your last games. Record your completion percentage so you know how low you got and then start the climb back up! |
