Earning Points for Honor and Glory!

Like every Community that ever lived (hush, just go with me on this) ours has a unique backstory, purpose, and plot!

Once upon a time, creator Jason tinkered, toiled, and tittered wildly as he built the Progress Community. To keep it safe, he created two mascots to love and nurture this budding space - only! (dramatic pause) It didn't go the way he expected! One vowed to protect the Community, while the other was determined to destroy it.

Your mission - #SaveTheCommunity

Akuma, that misbegotten rascal, created a band of bad of vicious, evil, nefarious robots who are implementing OPERATION: 0110001101. What does that mean? It means INVADING the Community! Breaking our code, crashing our sites, and leading it to ULTIMATE DESTRUCTION!!

But the Community is only the first step - next, he'll try to take over the world!

We're Doomed, I say! DOOOOMED!!!


 

As our good friend Ai will tell you, the best part about these bad, vicious, evil, nefarious robots is that they have pre-programmed weaknesses to exploit, turning bad bots into good ones!

  • Design Flaw One: Capturing Badges (see our badges page!)
  • Design Flaw Two: Completing Targeted Missions
  • Design Flaw Three: Special Actions in the Community!
  • Final Flaw: Accumulating Points and Leveling up!

Each Design Flaw exploited will help you save Mankind!

(Or Communitykind! The lines blur for me, quite honestly...)

Points for Mission Actions

Each milestone comes with its own special badge! The milestone that you cross (1, 2, 3 etc.) will show on each badge so that all your fellow Humans will be able to see your accomplishments (and applaud you accordingly)! As you achieve Ultimate Awesomeness, we may add additional milestones, to ensure your epic status does not go unnoticed!

To see all the milestone badges and thresholds, check out our Badges page.

In the meantime, let's check out how many points are associated with each action.
