I had fudged a couple of achievements years ago because I only cared about my Steam completion statistics, not the leaderboards. But after thinking about it I've concluded that the appearance of legitimacy also matters, especially when others happen to check you on sites like this.

These are the games I cheated on, to my knowledge, since this all happened years ago. If anything else suspect is brought up I'm willing to address and correct it.

Defence Alliance 2: Every single achievement. This is a broken-ass mod with a bunch of broken achievements that's attached to the original Killing Floor and after playing a couple rounds with bots (because nobody plays it) I decided I didn't want it weighing down my completion average. I used SAM to get all of these at once, which I'm 98% sure was what triggered my leaderboard ban. Fun fact: I earned 100% in Killing Floor itself legitimately, which I assume is significantly more challenging than doing so in Defence Alliance was while the stats were still working.

Team Fortress 2: Indie Film Sensation & Blockbuster. Here's another fun fact: I actually earned the replay achievements for 100 and 1,000 views legitimately. These two for 10,000 and 100,000 views, however, I used some game file trickery to get. Pretty much every other achievement I earned in-game, through gameplay and farming over ten years.

Frozen Synapse: He Has a Better Beard Than You, Though. I used a console command to get this one because I thought it was stupid. Bin (the developer you must defeat) pretty much doesn't play the game anymore and I hope they remove this one or make it viral, though I doubt either will happen.

Hey Trar, thanks for creating an appeal about this. For defence alliance 2, go ahead and relock the achievements and statistics with SAR, which you can find a link to in our FAQs.

For tf2, go ahead and relock these two as well.
The same goes for frozen synapse.

After relocking these achievements, go ahead and start each game to check for any achievements that automatically unlock on startup. If some do, let me know.

Taking a look at your other games, it looks like you got the achievement for playing with garry in garry's mod. This is a normally cheated achievement, and since you aren't completely sure about other games you may have done that in, i wanted to bring it up. Do you remember if that would be legit or not?

The Garry's Mod achievement I was simply incredibly lucky on, so I didn't bring it up initially even knowing It would be mentioned here. I still almost can't believe I got it, but there it is nonetheless. I'll use SAR for the ones you mentioned either tonight or tomorrow.

In the interest of transparency I feel I should say that about two months ago I had relocked the Stanley Parable achievement for not playing the game for 5 years. I had a change of heart about that one but I didn't feel the need to submit an appeal at that time.

Alrighty, i just updated these games on your trackers to show that they have been relocked, and thanks for letting me know about stanley parable. I'll get that game validated for you on trackers where it is not. If any new issues pop up for you in the future, feel free to let one of us know and we'll see what we can do. Thanks for your patience with the process!

Had to go back and ask Trar to relock the gmod achievement, as not every tracker showed the same unlock date. This is fixed now.
