Not a fan of these weird grandiose rhetoric posts that aren't actually developer updates.
The achievements system was overall very well received including by me, so I don't know why we're being given a justification essay over why the playerbase supposedly has an issue with its inception in totality. We understand a lot of work went into this and that it was impossible to request all useful changes to be made on launch day.

Hi @Travertine, we just wanted to reduce the opacity a bit on our process for everyone, especially for a project as significant and brain, labor, and time-consuming as the new achievements system.
We understand that today's update may seem or feel redundant to our community members with coding or project management experience. It's important to keep in mind that not everyone is as knowledgeable—we have players as young as 13 years old and players with a variety of life and work experience! Sharing [i]what[/i] we can about the process, [i]when[/i] we can helps everyone in the long-run. A retrospective also allows us to formally acknowledge some of the constructive feedback and complaints we received after launch. It may not be everyone's cup of tea for an announcement update—that's okay!—and I hope this information and insight helps! [emoji=new friend size=1]

I see, I do think this post is good in helping clarify the process for how decisions were made in the achievements.

I really appreciate the fact that you all work so hard to make this site enjoyable. I have tried various games and sites but this one stands out from the rest. Perhaps its because its dragons but that is just part of it. I thank you for all of your hard work and dedication! Thank you!!!

Thank you for lowering the requirement for Electrifying Result! I was so happy to see that it also already knew I'd gotten to 700k plus already so I didn't have to play again and get to that score! (Funny enough, I'd often fail just in the range of 660-700 something, so if I had to I think I could have easily gotten there. Still, thank you! It was so hard to get past 770k!)
