You know those achievements you can unlock on video games?

This is more of a casual idea, but I wanna gauge the users of tappedout to see how many people would be interested in developing neat achievements for decks and receiving neat achievements for decks...
Here is an example:
In my deck The Price Is Right, I have both a Stuffy Doll and a Pariah's Shield , so I could be challenged to kill an opponent with those two cards. Achievements don't necessarily have to be combos within the decks; another example is a challenge to win with a Laboratory Maniac , even though I don't have one in there (I have Gilded Drake -like cards in there.)
Then the achievements would be given a catchy/funny/epic name (like "Stop Hitting Yourself" for the first one, or "Freak Accident" for the second one).
So anyone who would want to do this would basically do four things: 1) add any number of decks to this thread. 2) Develop new, titled achievements for each other deck EQUAL TO THE NUMBER OF DECKS YOU ADD (be fair guys). 3) Add achievements given to you by other user into you deck description boxes with credit given to the user who made it. 4) Play, then post a date when/if you complete the achievements! :D
I'll add four to every deck posted here.

HarbingerJK, awesome! Like I said, it's more of a casual idea, but post a deck when ever you decide which one(s) you want achievements on :D

I've though about this idea too. Also, I saw a guy on MTGS who had a Laboratory Maniac Win Counter in his signature. That was kinda cool too

Recently on Modo I played a casual game with my standard mill deck against a modern white deck with Leyline of Sanctity .
I overloaded Cyclonic Rift and then Dissolve the Leyline of Sanctity then proceeded to win via mill with Traumatize and Jace, Memory Adept . If that doesn't deserve an achievement then I don't know what would.

I'm working on it. I've gotten a few done already. The easy part is the titles. The hard part is coming up with something original to achieve.

Ditto! My hardest part is thinking of something beyond "win with " or "cast _ then " or something like that.

I think a few people may have misinterpreted the idea of how many you're supposed to fill out. Granted, nobody can force anything, but ideally you should make an achievement on each deck for each deck you post.
i.e., I posted one deck and left one achievement on every deck.
