I (and many many others) have an achievement [slashdot.org] called "The Maker"... what does that mean? It's not listed in the FAQ.
Also, how are you computing the total number of Achievements? If you add up my achievements (and if I add the powers of two I get closer) but it doesn't come out to be the number you posted.
Also, if I have CmdrTaco's attention, why not leave this up? You've written the code for it and although it will certainly tax your database (default awards were handed out on different days)

Can you please prefix some of those with "Successfully", please? (Redundancy? Fire for effect!) Making a car analogy might be a rite of passage, but making one that gets ranked to 5 (and not funny) is an achievement. The same is true of playing an old saw, invoking Godwin, etc. The last two, of course, are excellent suggestions for negative achievements (along with fully-negative comments, etc.)
