    So how many players are going to forget to click the "Start challenge now" lol
    As someone who never participated in a challenge, and doesn't care that much about achievements (I have dozens of games with 20GS, thus making it to day 8 was extremely easy), is there any significance of not being able to complete the challenge?
    You won't get a badge for completing the challenge that's all, but hey if you made it this far worth keeping it up!

    There seems to be something wrong with what counts as 0.2 higher.
    Armed EmethSecret Achievementd3nn1s99999The Secret Achievement achievement in Armed Emeth worth 10 pointsContinue playing to unlock this secret achievement

    Would be the starting achievement

    You would assume that
    TownscaperRome wasn't built in a blockd3nn1s99999The Rome wasn't built in a block achievement in Townscaper worth 120 pointsPlaced 1000 blocks.
    would count as the next one, but it does not show up in the valid achievements.

    The calculated ratio of that last achievement is 1.202... so it should not be a rounding issue I think.

    EDIT: I just unlocked the Townscraper achievement and it still counted, so it's only the Valid achievement list that is not displaying correctly

    Someone has already completed this amazing. Looks like Minecraft for windows is the way to go I'll get round to it after doing Day 10 and 11

    Came here to post this. The URL shouldn't be showing achievements with a x.xx(xx) ratio. The two numbers in the parenthesis should be removed.

    Like if you unlocked an achievement with a 1.20. The next achievements it will show you will be 1.4001 and up. It should just show 1.40.

    This should be fun. Honestly wish this site had like a randomizer where you could click a button and get give a random daily challenge not something this hard but like get 1 100G achievement or get 5 achievement with 5 letter words

    Ooh this is a good one! A couple of questions though.

    Can you unlock lower ratio achievements in-between your 0.2 ratio jumps? E.g. 1.01 > 1.23 > 1.10 > 1.45

    Second question, when you unlock an achievement is that ratio frozen or can it still decay and potentially ruin your whole leap frog?

    Thanks
    Lower yes and they won't count but as soon as you do one higher by 0.2 or higher it will be locked in, if you do it by accident you can't go back.

    So to be absolutely in the clear; if I unlock one achievement with 1.18 ratio, the next has to be 1.38 and up?
    I believe the next one would have to be 1.20.
    Nope, Lukoster was right it needs to be 0.2 higher so 1.18 ratio would mean 1.38 for the second one or higher, then if 1.41 was gotten it would need 1.61 or higher etc
    I admit I wasn't 100% on that, chalke it up to my terrible math skills again I guess, lol. I mixed up .2 and .02 it seems.

    Are we able to reset the Leap Frog? Seems like that should be an option.

    No that's why you only hit start when you're ready. Plan ahead.

    That’s a shame. Would’ve preferred to try and do it naturally. laugh

    I have sent this information to the devs, although not sure when it will be actioned.

    If you go to your To Do list (RedTapeZaid's To-Do List) it has an Add random achievements button under Options. You can select different ratios for what you want to add and create a list. I actually do this at the start of each year on TT. I then do my best to work through the list between other games I am playing. I go with 100 trophies. Not doing so well this year as I still have 51 remaining. Not an official site challenge obviously, but something you can do for your own fun :)
    I am on the TT Events Team. If I write Trophy, know I meant Achievement :)

    FYI: I've never participated in a community challange here before. Having only bought my first Xbox a few months ago and missed all the ones since. So forgive me for asking what might seem rather stupid questions, but I want to make sure I didn't misunderstand anything in the description.

    1. "TA Ratio" means the number that shows up under "RATIO" when viewing eligible achievments and other achiement list like it? I should effectively start with a very easy one and work my way up with the smallest increments that are at least 0.2 higher possible.

    2. Once I've finished Day 11 I need to manually scan again or wait for the next automatic one, if I've used all. Then I'll get a "Start Challenge" button. As long is I don't start the challenge officially, I can unlock as many high ratio achievements as I want after finishing Day 11 without having to worry about making the challenge impossibly hard.

    3rd question while I'm at it: Where exactly on my profile are challange badges to be found? If I win this one, do I need to enable it for it to show in my profile or in the Forums? If yes how and where?

    1 - Yes, try and start with the easiest achievement you can find with a ratio close to 1.00, then work up so one around 1.2, then 1.4 etc

    2 - Once you've finished day 11, go to the hub page and click the start button for day 12 when you're ready for your next achievement you pop to start the ladder

    3 - Your badge will automatically appear on your profile homepage
    Too much work, not enough games
