Creating Achievements in a Project with a Shuffle Mode Topic

If your Project contains a Shuffle Mode Topic, it is important to consider how Achievement rules are configured, as Players may be assigned different Challenges.

Rules Based on Completions in Project

(1) Made at least ‘x’ completions in this project

This rule works well when a Project includes a Shuffle Mode Topic. However, the value of x should take into account the number of Challenges assigned per Player.

For example, 

• Topic 1 (Standard Topic): 4 Challenges, all completed once
• Topic 2 (Shuffle Mode Topic): 4 Challenges, 2 assigned per Player
• The recommended maximum value for this rule is 6. 

(2) Made at least ‘x’ photo completions in this project

This rule can work, but it is recommended to exclude photo completions from Shuffle Mode Topics, unless the Topic contains only Photo Challenges.

For example, 

• Topic 1 (Standard Topic): 4 Photo Challenges

• Topic 2 (Shuffle Mode Topic): 4 Challenges, including 1 Photo Challenge, 2 assigned per Player

• The recommended maximum value for this rule is 4. 

(3) Made at least ‘x’ QR completions in this project

This rule can work, but it is recommended to exclude QR completions from Shuffle Mode Topics, unless the Topic contains only QR Code Challenges.

For example, 

• Topic 1 (Standard Topic): 4 QR Code Challenges
• Topic 2 (Shuffle Mode Topic): 4 Challenges, including 1 QR Code Challenge, 2 assigned per Player
• The recommended maximum value for this rule is 4.

Rules Based on Completions in Topic

The Topic described in this section of rules refers to the Shuffle Mode Topic. 

(1) Be one of the first ‘x’ players to complete a challenge in this topic

This rule works well with a Shuffle Mode Topic. 

(2) Complete all challenges in this topic

This rule does not work with a Shuffle Mode Topic unless the number of Challenges assigned per Player equals the total number of Challenges created in the Topic.

“All Challenges” refers to both assigned and unassigned Challenges.

(3) Made at least ‘x’ completions in this topic

This rule works well with a Shuffle Mode Topic, provided that x does not exceed the number of Challenges assigned per Player.

For example, 

• Shuffle Mode Topic: 10 Challenges created with 5 Challenges assigned per Player

• The recommended maximum value for this rule is 5. 

(4) Made at least ‘x’ photo completions in this topic

This rule does not work unless the Shuffle Mode Topic contains only Photo Challenges.

(5) Made at least ‘x’ QR completions in this topic

This rule does not work unless the Shuffle Mode Topic contains only QR Code Challenges.

Rules Based on Completions in Challenge

(1) Complete this challenge at least ‘x’ times

This rule does not work with a Shuffle Mode Topic because:

• Challenges can only be completed once per Player, and

• Players may not be assigned that specific Challenge.

Rules Based on Points

(1) Earn at least ‘x’ points in this project

This rule works well, but x should consider the maximum total points available from assigned Challenges.

For example, 

• Topic 1 (Standard Topic): 4 Challenges with 10 points per Challenge completion

• Topic 2 (Shuffle Mode Topic): 4 Challenges with 10 points per Challenge completion, 2 assigned per Player

• The recommended maximum value for this rule is 60.

(2) Earn at least ‘x’ points in this topic

This rule works well if x stays within the maximum points attainable from assigned Challenges.

For example, 

• Shuffle Mode Topic: 10 Challenges with 10 points per Challenge Completion, 5 Challenges assigned per Player
• The recommended maximum value for this rule is 50. 

(3) Earn at least ‘x’ points in this challenge

This rule does not work with a Shuffle Mode Topic, as Players may not be assigned that specific Challenge.

Rules Based on Comments

(1) Post at least ‘x’ comments in this project

This rule works well if Project contains a Shuffle Mode Topic. 

(2) Post at least ‘x’ comments in this topic

This rule works well with a Shuffle Mode Topic. 

(3) Post at least ‘x’ comments in this challenge

This rule does not work with Shuffle Mode Topics, as Players may not be assigned that specific Challenge.

Rules Based on Votes

(1) Vote on at least ‘x’ completions in this topic

This rule works with Shuffle Mode Topic, but x should consider:

• The number of Challenges assigned per Player
• The number of Players in the Topic

(2) Vote on at least ‘x’ flashcards in this topic

This rule does not work with Shuffle Mode Topics, as Flashcards are not available.

Other Rules

(1) At least "x" hours have elapsed since starting this topic

This rule works with a Shuffle Mode Topic. However, it is recommended to use it only for Topics that contain the same type of content, such as all Quiz Challenges, to ensure a consistent experience for Players.
