Abstract :
We propose a system for acquiring, maintaining, and communicating Real-World Achievements. The concept is based on virtual world systems that are in common use in current Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOG) like World of Warcraft or Warhammer Online. The system design is centered around a global database of achievement definitions and individual progress.
