Yaerveth Appeal (Complete)

Post by Yaerveth » Sun Jul 05, 2020 1:10 am

Hi, I just discovered today that I was excluded from the SteamHunters leaderboards and I'd like to explain the only problematic game stats on my account.

Trine 2: I 100%'d the game back in 2014, then my brother wanted to play it through on my account with locked achievements since he wanted to keep track of the achievements himself. I discovered that the only way to lock them is by using a tool, I used it to lock the achievements again then once we loaded my save file, most of them popped up at the same time. I got the rest (the ones didn't pop up) that day and then let him play with unlocked achievements since I was afraid that it'd mess things up again if I used it.

Thank you and if you have any more questions, I'll be happy to answer them.

Hey Yaerveth, thanks for creating an appeal about this. To make sure i understand this, are you saying your brother wanted to play the game but be able to unlock achievement still, so you relocked them to make that happen. Then when using your own save file again, it unlocked a lot of them at the same time, and then played through again to unlock them all yourself, finally letting your brother play without being able to unlock any of the achievements himself?

No, my save file unlocked all level and collectible related achievements at the same time, then in that same day, I got the ones that haven't been unlocked due to my save file. After that, I let him play and told him that the tool messed things up so there's no way for him to track achievements. So, my stats are still messed up.

I believe this should be fine then. In the future, please refrain from allowing anyone to play on your account, as well as not using programs to mess with the achievements in games. It can cause some problems for you in unexpected ways, as you've discovered haha. If any other issues pop up for you, please let us know and we'll see what we can do to help!
