Suggest an Accomplishment
Hey all,
As you may have seen in the Announcements Forum, we've added the new "Accomplishments" system.
The purpose of this thread is for you to suggest an accomplishment. Make sure you include the following:
Accomplishment Title (ex. Butterfingers)
Accomplishment Description (ex. Record 6 turnovers in one game)
Accomplishment Value (ex. 1)
Please be aware that some accomplishments are not possible for us to implement without adding significant overhead to the system so don't feel spurned if your accomplishment is not eventually added.
Some things to keep in mind...
- Streaks are a *really* hard thing for us to handle via the accomplishment system. Try to avoid using them
- Make sure you consider "noise" when suggesting an accomplishment. For example, an accomplishment for "Maintain a field goal percentage of 0.800 or higher" sounds good on paper, but you will need to account for people who have played just one game in a season and stuff like that 
Make sure your conditions for an accomplishment are rigid enough that some people do not undeservedly receive it.
- Don't design accomplishments that reveal information about a player's build. "Train an attribute to 300 or higher", for example, is a bad accomplishment because eventually accomplishments will be viewable by everyone
Thanks for your help!

Re: Suggest an Accomplishment
I thought of the forum based accomplishments and instantly thought better of it due to (you guessed it) people spamming.

As I'm sure you realized, the non-player based suggestion was at least partially tongue-in-cheek. Would be funny though. . .

Re: Suggest an Accomplishment
Subjective Forum-Based Accomplishments. . .chosen by mods (perhaps periodically)
Information Society - for providing valuable contributions to the General forum (newbie help, being marvharrison, etc.)
Media Mogul - for providing valuable contributions to the Media forum (the top ten list guys, the radio show guys, etc.)
Trivial Pursuit - for providing valuable contributions to the Off Topic forum (running contests, posting daily "Who's The Best" threads, being me. . .LOL)
Suggestion Box - for providing valuable contributions to the Suggestions thread
This wouldn't generate a ton of spam because a) it would be based on previous contributions, at least initially; b) "valuable" contributions could be one thread or series of threads, not 1000 worthless ones; and c) no one would know who got these accomplishments unless they chose to advertise the fact
Worth a thought.

Re: Suggest an Accomplishment
Finisher-Hit a game winning shot.
All Day-score 20 points in 1 quarter.
Devil's Advocate-Gain exactly 6 in 3 stats for a game. eg; 6 rebounds, 6 assists 6 points.
Mercy Rule-Be on a team that wins by 50 or more points.
btw, love these suggestions by RobNJ564:
Hometown Hero: Play five full seasons consecutively with the same team
Hometown Legend: Play ten full seasons consecutively with the same team
*EDIT* Had to remove the accomplishments I suggested that were already in existence.

These are great!
I'd say value these at 2pts and 4 respectively.

You would need a minimum number of games played so a team doesn't qualify by losing their first game and the season ends
