Maybe I'm dumb, but where can I see the list of all possible achievements rather than the ones I've already achieved? Cool idea, gamification is great. I wish I had a story interesting enough to make the front page

Quoted from herbertbsharp:I'm at 27/65, not bad to start, must reach 65/65....
Looks like some of the hardest ones include:
Get a Frontpage featured story
Own 35+ games at once
Own 10 EM games
Get a topic with 100 favorites
Time to break out the wallet or buy a new house, gotta get achievements!
Quoted from o-din:That one can be a little tough when so many are not in pinside's list of games. I've got a couple and even after making a request could not get added.
I never fully understood the criteria for a database entry. There are mechanical flipperless games like Ballyhoo and even bingos (Super Dixieland for one). What could possibly not be added? Scoregasm Master wasn't added I know.
Quoted from o-din:I've got two flipper games from 1948 that are not here and another I was lookin for. Buccaneer and Ali Baba I own now. And these were made by Gottlieb, the biggest name in the business at the time. Whether it is the 90s, the 70's, or the 40s, all games with at least a decent production run should be included IMO.
Let's get an achievement for suggesting a game to be added to the database to fix this problem.
Also here's a picture of Buccaneer so I can progress towards my 250 images achievement.
Quoted from Nokoro:Is there a way to see what our achievements mean? Some are obvious, but others are less clear.
You can mouse over them.
Also I think we should get an achivement for suggesting an achievement. Feel free to add that one directly to my profile Robin.
I still have my eye out for the 3 unknown achievements. Could it be no one's achieved them yet? Maybe you need to own a King Kong and Pinball Circus
I went through 20 pages of the highest karma members and looked at owners of all the rarest games I could think of without finding the missing 3 achievements. Is this driving no one else crazy? There's a pinball mystery!
Also the "Going old-skool" one is missing for a bunch of people with EMs and Pulitzer "Price" should be Prize 
Quoted from DCFAN:The "Pinside member" title seems meaningless. Does everybody except the moderators have that?
Banned/deactivated accounts have no achievements 
Quoted from Martijn:Today 12 new achievements got added to the site with the next bunch already being worked on. Happy hunting!
I poked around and only found the easy ones, I think you have them all so I wasted my time! Maybe there's a 15 year achievement queued up too

Hey I've got 10k more than that. I just got on the front page with a story I wrote (to get the achievement, awww yeah).
Also I got my EM achievement fixed and my Pulitzer one disappeared, what a rip off! (Submitting a rating comment fixed it).

Hmmm:
1. Gameroom Displayed - Post 3 gameroom photos
2. Getting Somewhere - Own 3+ games
3. They Keep Popping Up - Own 10+ games
4. Rock Ain't Dead! - Own(ed) a GnR, ACDC, and Metallica

10. Never Say Never - Have Wizard Blocks and Williams Playboy on your wishlist, lol
11. Brand Loyal - Own 3+ games of the same manufacturer, but no games of another manufacturer
12. Playboy - Own 3/4 Playboy machines.
Quoted from Aurich:Hmm, I should have that one, doesn't show up though.
The verbiage is "own" for that one, not "own(ed)". Apparently they're all different, but I didn't differentiate when typing them out. I think I fixed it above now. I'm upset that I was brand loyal when I was starting out but I know I'm never going to give up my Gottliebs so I can't get that one
Quoted from Aurich:Damn, I had them both at the same time too.
If you added and removed them quickly from your collection I won't tell.
Found a few more while treasure hunting, a couple very rare ones 
1. Stick it Out! - Own a Stern Rolling Stones and a Stern Kiss
2. Jurassic Jeopardy - Own both a Jurassic Park and a Jurassic Park, The Lost World
3. Sharpshooter - Own a Sharpshooter and a Sharp Shooter II.
4. It'a a Family Thing - Own both the regular and the gold edition of The Addams Family
Made a spreadsheet too, there are 88 of 93 known in this thread.

Quoted from ForceFlow:Discovered a new one:
"Regular" - 2,500 - Visit Pinside for 14 days in a row
Nice, I bet the count started with the update 13 days ago 4 unknowns now, maybe more in this series.

Quoted from ForceFlow:Found another one:
"Living Here" - Visit pinside for 30 days in a row - 2500
I'm not sure if I should be proud of that one or not...
As an excuse, it is your job now.
