I would still like to know the definition for Employee of the Month, and the name and definition of the grid of five by five dots. If you don’t want to be a “spoiler” feel free to message me here on iNat.

Thanks!

The grid of dots is Scatter.

Employee Of The Month

Make 31 observations of Ants, Termites or Honey Bees in one month.

Thanks so much! This is so much more fun for me when I know what it is about!

Turns out I am still missing a definition for Homely Hermit. Anyone have one?

Just FYI, if you are trying to prevent spoilers, you would not want to quote, as it shows the hidden/dropdown text to everyone in the thread.

This is a lot of fun. There is one achievement, however, that doesn’t seem to be calculating properly.

Always On (Make 120 observations over a 5-day period). My score is stuck at 109 of 120 even though there have been numerous 5-day periods in May, June, and July where I’ve far exceeded 120.

Same here. I’m currently (still) in the middle of editing and uploading photos from a Big Day at a local wildlife refuge. I have 60+ and counting observations up from just that day alone, and almost none are showing up. Weirdly, the most recent one that I uploaded is showing, but it seems to be the exception. Any ideas?

Thanks so much for this fun list! It really made my day as I found out that I have 7 achievements and so many more to aim at! (And note: this reply is also partly because I want to come back here later and report if I get an Old Geezer etc, - so that the conversation does not close. There might be an achievement in it as well…;-)
