Achievement Seekers was an idea that Leo thought up of Around April/May 2010. At that point it was known as Real Life Achievement Hunter (RLAH) and the intentions were for it to hopefully be integrated as one of Achievement Hunter's video series (such as Rage Quit). Geoff and Gavino did a couple of Real Life Achievements when Geoff was in the UK, but to my knowledge there have not been any other videos in their series. In this past year Leo has partnered up with Kaisonic to create a web-series that will eventually catch on, and be a fan favorite.
Achievement Seekers is a project based on completing measurable tasks in real life. The first official episode was launched May 13, 2011.
lol....... I literally couldn't stop laughing at the video link..... Those 5 seconds were worth watching the video.
Suggestions for real life challenges -Something to do with cross-dressing for a day. -Anything involving wacky costumes, my suggestion: A Banana. -going a whole day being blindfolded -Crossing the Border Illegally -Be part of/organize a flash mob
you have a lot of food ideas, so I'm trying to give you others.
You know this project has the potential to have a huge section of global achievements. Like the location specific ideas. Turn this into something really big. Just a thought.
Received a message from Kickstarter staff member about rewards as we had not outlined them. Just sent in a proposal with rewards outlined. Waiting for response.
Thanks for writing. Sounds like an interesting project!
Congratulations -- you’re in! In just a moment, you’ll be able to start getting your project ready. Yay!
Take as much time as you need to prepare. There’s no deadline to launch. Check out some of our Recommended projects, browse the FAQ, and read the project guidelines. They'll give you a feel for what works and help you shape your project into a great one.
Some of the things you’ll learn:
1) A video is a must. It makes an emotional connection and shows you care. Plus, projects with video succeed at a much higher rate!
2) Cool rewards make a big difference. Not every reward has to be special, but they’re a great opportunity to share what’s unique to you and your project.
3) Spreading the word pays off. You provide the experience and the idea, your network helps fund and promote it.
Also, when considering your funding goal, remember that it's an all-or-nothing deal -- you can always raise more, but never less!

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't set Kickstarter up yet but I have to find my checkbook to link my bank account to my amazonpayments account and as far as I know that's the only hold up. My checkbook may in fact be 90 miles away... I'm going to try to locate it this afternoon!
Please visit www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIdK5Jn06ZA to see Season 1 Episode 1 of Achievement Seekers on YouTube. We would appreciate it if you could like the video, favorite it, subscribe to our channel, and leave an encouraging comment or suggestion!
If you could also post a journal, tweet it, or advertise in anyway we would appreciate it!
Kaisonic will be sending me the raw footage for Episode 2 of Achievement Seekers today for brainstorming and commenting. Editing will be starting soon and you shall see S1E2 around 930pm Friday.
Who?! Even your friend in the video hates it. There's been no comments on YT or on here saying that anyone likes it and you risk alienating a section of your audience.. There is no real point to it at all as it is irrelevant to what you are doing.
