Achievement icons?

Postby Sinned » March 25th, 2013, 1:29 pm

I've noticed that some members have some funky icons under their posts.
Sjeng has 'slain a goblin' for instance and has a goblin icon.

I was wondering: which icons are there and wahat do you have to do to get them (besides taking part in a mini exchange and writing for the blog)

At the moment, the only rewards that can be earned are the Quill for submitting an article to the blog, and the Santa Orc for participating in a miniature exchange.
Some members have also encountered and killed monsters, or discovered pieces of Grin's stone map while browsing the foul depths of the forum. ;)

Ok.....I'm going nuts.
Does this mean that there are items/monsters (hidden) in postings on this forum? And if you find them you can click on them and 'presto': you have an icon added?

A little more info would be cool. |_P

Not giving you any more info as that would spoil the fun and sense of achievement you get once you find one. Now go and search!

Ok, so there are still achievements to find? Thats all I need to know (otherwise I'd be searching in vain)

You guys BITE THE BIG ONE - I have no clue what you're talking about. I've never seen anything
"hidden" in the depths of the forum...certainly nothing that could be clicked on for some
special icon somewhere.

So come one...stop being odd-balls. What's going on?
