The night ended with the unlocking of Air Trick Vertical Combo (40G) for performing an air trick containing two vertical rotations and landing safely and sadly due to a busy day on Tuesday, my achievement streak went so a new one begins at 1 day and 25 unlocks.

AlphaJax Spell A 300 Streak

As I outlined in the previous post, I was out Saturday night which led to a late return home on Sunday morning so a quick go on AlphaJax to continue the achievement streak saw the required single unlock in the shape of Apposite Choice (10G) for placing a ten points letter on a Triple Letter tile. The unlock puts me at 300 achievements in 58 days, two days earlier than the target I set once I had hit 250.

A delayed post due to going out last night and getting horribly drunk but after four years without I made up for lost time but anyway back to the main focus which saw three games played on the 360 and the continuation of Peggle 2 on the One.

The days haul brought the achievement streak to 299 in 57 days so the target of 300 in 60 days is guaranteed as to keep the streak going only one unlock is needed so the minimum will be 300 in 58 days.
