Zach-Man97 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) https://imgur.com/a/Cwt7Wsp Got my first DLC done. Not too many points, but I good start. Are we supposed to post an update for everything we finish, or would you prefer at just milestones. Edited January 4 by Zach-Man97 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just only tag me in milestones like when you hit a new tier so I can update leaderboards. Edited January 4 by Rebourne07 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rebourne07 Posted January 4 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 4 Another game down This time Cyberpunk 2077. This is another one that I started last year but wanted to wait to platinum for PDC 2024. Fun game and definitely recommend. Next up I'm working on all 4 versions of Skyrim at once, and they will all qualify for this challenge so I'll see a huge spike in points once that's complete https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gjKw-ifYZHif_X1zrbaH5a9qOuZReyRQOC7zBXPckvk/edit?usp=sharing 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iXanon Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Sooo, question - and apologies if it's been answered. Where DLC is concerned, do we need to have unlocked a trophy before 2024 in the specific DLC for it to count, or is it enough to have started the base game before 2024? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just have to have started the base game. The start date for any DLC is the start date of the base game. As long as that is 2023 or before you're good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebourne07 Posted January 4 Author Share Posted January 4 Omg, I just discovered that I'm 1 trophy away from 10,000 points with Final Fantasy XIV - Endwalker DLC... So...I set up the rules, calculations and tiers thinking of the average gamer tackling the average backlog. Ever since the beginning of the year though so many people have pointed out ways to earn obscene amounts of points, even following all the rules as they are set forth. Any suggestions from anyone on some sort of separate end game or separate leaderboard structure to account for the inevitable 20k+ people? Like that guy the other day about to pop 3 stacks of Fortnite for a bajillion points lol Some players are gonna blow past 5k points but I want the basic structure of the event to remain the same because for typical backlogs you're earning 50-200 points a game so it works well. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfinateEternity Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) 1 hour ago, Rebourne07 said: Any suggestions from anyone on some sort of separate end game or separate leaderboard structure to account for the inevitable 20k+ people? This idea comes from the Kaleidoscope Challenge, where prestige levels (based on the # of rainbows you complete past your first one) are used. So, full credit goes to @DrBloodmoney. But, if you wanted, you could make a Prestige Tier or set of Tiers that goes beyond your Bronze-Platinum structure OR just add a "Platinum Prestige" note in the Platinum tier if you wanted to keep your original 4 tiers and just have the platinum one expand. You could have someone gain a prestige level every 10-15K points or something. The number of prestige levels and the point values are up to you. But, that would give you growing room as needed, while still allowing you to keep the original event intact. Those that hit the prestige tiers/levels could have a little add-on to their badge for every prestige level, a separate prestige badge, or something else entirely that you deem appropriate as recognition for the prestige part of the event. I completely understand if this is not something you'd like to go with though! Hopefully, you'll find something that works for you!

However, for every 1,000 points after your initial 5k you earn a prestige . Shyjun - 3750+ Points Earned Reveal hidden contents No one has earned this tier yet... 2500+ Points Earned Reveal hidden contents No one has earned this tier yet... 1250+ Points Earned Reveal hidden contents No one has earned this tier yet... Credit to @InfinateEternity and @DrBloodmoney for the prestige idea. For those who are competition minded there will be prestige 's added to the leaderboards for each additional 1,000 points over 5k. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not the only one who discovered this. I'm aiming for this as well. Just need 1 triple triad card, 2 levels for Thancred, and the savage raid. Which shouldn't be too hard with the current item level and the relic weapon we'll likely get within a few weeks. Maybe add an award for the player that got the most points out of a single entry? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebourne07 Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 (edited) I'm kind of ridiculous so I added my entire backlog onto Google Sheets lol Check it out if you're interested in doing something similar. Adding the filters makes it so it's sortable and I'm able to find games in certain ranges too. I'm shocked to see that even without any games without PSNProfiles guides and any games with unobtainable trophies, I could technically hit almost 100k points if I dedicated 9800hrs of my life to this 😂 Edited January 6 by Rebourne07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrHealthy Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 (edited) @Xylobe @Rebourne07 I have updated the time multiplier formula to resolve the #NUM error that you get if you enter a start date but no end date. The new formula is: =IF (AND (B3<>"", F3<>""), 1 + (0.1 * DATEDIF(E3, F3, "Y")), IF(B3<>"", 1, "")) If the end date is lower than the start date or their is no start date it will still error, but otherwise it should default to 1 if no end date is selected. It is 4 am here so please check my work. As well here is a total points formula that skips any errors that are present by applying a value of zero to them: =SUM(IFERROR(O3:O59,0)) Edited January 6 by MrHealthy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xylobe Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Appreciated @MrHealthy, I updated the template accordingly. It wasn't an issue I'd noticed because I wasn't expecting everyone to fill out all of their games preemptively! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TheZazuku Posted January 6 Popular Post Share Posted January 6 Another DLC done and that makes Borderlands 3 100% complete! BOunty of Blood, 3/10 difficulty and 7h = 21points which brings me to 50 total. Not the highest scoring stuff so far for me, but the cleanup is more than welcome at this point.

Popular Post GeorgeAK199 Posted January 7 Popular Post Share Posted January 7 My first backlog event, so apologies if something on here is incorrect. But I've started the challenge with platinums in Saints Row and Sleeping Dogs. Saints Row was hell, kept crashing every 2 minutes and with every crash came a new glitch in my save file I had to deal with. Sleeping Dogs was the polar opposite, didn't crash once and might be my favourite game I have gone for platinum in. I have a few other games I have lined up that I either started a playthrough on in the past and got bored or just could never be bothered to do the clean up for. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
