Introducing The TrueTrophies 5th Birthday Community Challenge

By Dave Horobin,

It's been a big year for the TrueGaming Network. Earlier this year, TrueAchievements celebrated its 10th Birthday, and coincidentally it also marks a big anniversary here on TrueTrophies. That's right, TrueTrophies is officially five years old, and to celebrate half a decade of TT, we're excited to announce that our next community challenge is starting right now! Titled the 5th Birthday Challenge, we're giving everyone that enters the chance to be a winner and earn another community challenge badge. That's not all! As a special birthday treat, we're also giving all of you the chance to win a month of TT Pro.

Introducing The TrueTrophies 5th Birthday Community Challenge

What is the 5th Birthday Challenge?

The aim of the event is simple. Using the first letter of a trophy name, you have until October 31st to spell out the phrase "Happy Birthday TrueTrophies" in order (and you can ignore the spaces). You can, of course, unlock any trophies in-between each letter you are going for, but they won't count for a letter later on — they have to be earned in the correct order.

The contest is already underway, and to register all you need to do is head over to the 5th Birthday Challenge hub and hit the "Register Now" button on the right-hand side of the page.

The event ends on October 31st at 23:59 UTC. You can register at any time during the event. However, all trophies must be unlocked and scanned in by the end of October 31st for them to count.

While the event is running, you'll have a panel on your homepage that shows the current letter you are going for, and a link to view all your locked trophies that start with that particular letter:

You can also see a list of all the trophies you've earned so far and the letters you still need by going to the event hub and clicking the Challenge List tab.

Which Trophies Count?

The trophies must be earned online and have a valid timestamp
All trophies will count for all games
Trophies starting with a special character (such as those with ümlauts or tilde) do not count. Only those in the English alphabet are included.

Is There a Prize?

As with our previous community challenges, everyone can be a winner in the 5th Birthday Challenge. If you manage to complete the challenge and spell out "Happy Birthday TrueTrophies" in order by October 31st at 23:59 UTC, you'll receive a 5th Birthday Challenge badge that you can display proudly within the Completed Community Challenges section of your profile.

That's not all! As a special birthday treat, anyone who completes the challenge before 23:59 UTC on Tuesday, October 16th will receive a month of TT Pro.
