Breakfast Topic: Unofficial BlizzCon achievements

by Natalie Mootz Oct 7th 2008 at 8:00AM

If you're going to BlizzCon, you don't have to wait for Echoes of Doom to come out to get a head start on racking up achievements, at least according to the playful commentary going on in the forums right now. Here's a taste of some of the humorous achievements they've suggested you can earn at BlizzCon.

I Have No Use for This - Try to sell a piece of junk to any vendor at BlizzCon
Ruler of BlizzCon - Survived both days of BlizzCon without sleeping, eating, and showering (Blue poster Bashiok begs you not to attempt this one)
Savior of the Public - Brought enough soap for yourself and at least 1 other person (takes achievement away from Ruler of BlizzCon)
I put on pants for this! - Worry about the fact that you're missing a raid with your guild
Defender of the Throne - Order a greasy, overpriced hamburger from the convention center floor and spend at least 2 hours on the john
Everyone's Best Friend - Buy a round of drinks for the Blues
The Not-So Magic Kingdom - Go to Disneyland in Warcraft apparel
I Want My Mommy - Utter the phrase "Don't tase me Bro!" as security comes for you
THEY GOT THE KEYS MAN - Intoxicate a Blizzard CM
Munchhausen - Complain about your class to Kalgan
Nerf THIS! -Yell and nerdrage at a dev during the class panel
Oops! I Did it Again! - Come to the convention dressed as a character not pertaining to WoW
Slayer of the Dragon - Hand out mints to five people with the "dragon" breath

Okay, now it's YOUR turn! Surely we can come up with even funnier ideas for BlizzCon achievements!

[Thanks, Andrew Anderson!]

Regarding the WWI, there was the following achievement : Successfully find & sneak into the order page, reaching the Holy Grail of tickets buying.
That was an epic quest requiring time and effort to succeed, as well as lots of cold blood.

Dunno if it was implemented for Blizzcon.

But you already know the damn french will ruin your quest, right? And then throw sludge and cows at you.

Cheeselord - Be the smelliest person at Blizzcon for the duration of the event.

World of Nerdcraft: Roleplay as your main without a costume on

Davlen Oct 7th 2008 9:55AM

I saw this and thought it would be fun, but the ones the forums are coming up with are out of this world. I know we can do better.

Awesome

"The Topper Way"
Shine a shoe for a penny. ( Copper , just as Topper Mcnabb would want ).

shkss Oct 7th 2008 9:05AM

Warchief - attempt to lead a group of 40 disgruntled players past security to "raid" the class panel

Dalixam Oct 7th 2008 9:10AM

Saving the Species - Have sex on the main stage while wearing a Furbolg costume.

"Can't cheat your way out of this one"
Have a bot go to BlizzCon for you and let it participate in all events.

"Move it Big Girl"
Take a chair from a pregnant woman

"Can't hit the scene if you don't have the greens"
Eat only healthfood (preferable veganistic) that was bought on the spot.

"You didn't see me"
Sneak in to the event whithout paying, get 'backstage' and interview staff-members

OMG, I would love to see someone go to Blizzcon dressed as a bot. Has anyone done that before? :P

Spoonman Oct 8th 2008 11:36PM

Hahaha! I love that "Move it Big Girl"!

Arcaria Oct 7th 2008 9:40AM

Biggest Whopper- Convince someone that you actually DO get laid sometimes despite your penchant for going to roleplay festivals and Star Trek conventions.

MechChef Oct 7th 2008 10:13AM

As a follow-on to this one:

Heroic Badge of Shame - Have sex with a female you met at BlizzCon. Even finding a female, moreso a receptive one, will be an act of heroism in itself. However, the odds are she'll be more Princess Theradras than Jaina Proudmore. Thanks for taking one for the team, champ.

Dalixam Oct 7th 2008 9:49AM

"I'm so last year" - Shout 'Leeroy', run up to the buffet, and eat everything.

holyground Oct 7th 2008 9:56AM

But I farmed for hours!--Attempt to sneak in home-made food.

I'm not a vending machine!! -- Hand out at least three (3) items that any non-lazy person should have brought themselves.

LFG Blizzcon -- Attend Blizzcon alone and form a PUG for the duration of the convention.

"Taking one for the team"
Threaten, torture, or by using other forms of not-so-gentile methods (use a Gyrobalanced Khorium Destroyer if need be, while telling them you know every person in their family ...) convince Blizz to release the Deathknight Class October 13th, if arrested deny ever seeing this post
