Earned achievement: You have earned an achievement!

Almost everyone has heard about the achievement system that will be introduced in the next patch for WoW. Some of these include things like…

  • Equipping x pieces of superior quality armor
  • Killing a raid boss.
  • Getting all the Brewfest Regalia

… and so forth. Pretty much anything you can conceivably DO in the game has an achievement attached to it.

As I was browsing the PTR forums earlier today, I noticed Maaven has set up a new theme in his/her signature.

Fake Achievements Pt. 2:
The One: Dodge 100 Projectiles.
Banhammah’d: Earn the ire of Maaven.
My Milkshake: Buff 500 different characters without moving.

This reminded me of a conversation I had with some friends of mine when the achievements system was first announced about some additions we thought they should make. Our list included a ton of stupid stuff like…

“Achievement earned: You’ve cast your first spell!”
“Achievement earned: This is your first spirit run!”
“Achievement earned: You fell to your death!”

Our list eventually would up ending with “Achievement earned: You took a joke too far!” >.>

What silly, stupid, and awesome additions would you make to the achievement system?
