The Great TrueAchievements Score Challenge (GTASC) XIII is coming soon

Howdy folks! I’m here to let you all know that we’re nearing the 13th run of the Great TrueAchievements Score Challenge. GTASC XIII starts on August 14th, 2024 at 12:00 UTC and will run for 14 weeks.GTASC XIII: How it worksThere are two separate but concurrent contests — the Individual Contest and the Team Contest. You can enter both contests if you want to, or just one.Both contests run for 14 periods of one week, and at the end of each period, the lowest scoring teams in each contest are eliminated and the leaderboards are reset for the next period.At the start of each period you will be shown how many bottom teams will be eliminated, and it’s your (and your team’s) job to stay out of the elimination zone and survive to the next period.How do you score points?Scoring this year is based on TrueAchievement Difference (aka TA Difference) — this is the difference between TrueAchievement Score and Gamerscore.For example, this achievement in Descenders has a TrueAchievement Score of 63, and a Gamerscore of 25:So this achievement has a TA Difference of 38.Please note that in a change from previous years, only the TA Difference in achievements earned since the start of the contest will be used when calculating your TA Difference for the period. This means that any achievements earned before the event will not factor into your GTASC score.It’s also worth remembering that an achievement’s TrueAchievement score is fluid. They change over time as more people start a game or unlock a particular achievement. These changes are also factored into your GTASC scores, if you earned the achievement during the event. That means that it is actually possible to earn score without unlocking achievements just as its possible to earn negative score while unlocking achievements.GTASC XIII OverviewStarts August 14th at 12:00 UTCScoring is based on TA Difference for achievements earned during the contestThe contest is 14 weeks long (if you make it all the way to the end)The team contest is for teams of threeBoth contests are open to Gamertags with 20,000 Gamerscore or more and have been registered for at least 3 monthsGamertags must have full tracking to enterBonuses (weekly challenges) and Badges (weekly extreme stat leaders) will returnGet chatting with friends about teams and get yourselves registered on the GTASC hub — Series XIII is about to begin!Community challenge badgeThere is no Community challenge badge for this event.
