Seems like the FB followers is the most likely 30th achievement. Hopefully we can get that one soon! I bet if Elan posts an update on our progress and hints at this fact... we'll get up to the 100,000 pretty fast.
Peter 'General Calculus' W. 2015-02-12T09:16:08-05:00
At the very least it is dubious. It is small, has bad compression artefacts in it.
Patrick Thurston 2015-02-12T09:17:06-05:00
yah and im not counting 100 its more like a little over 50
Patrick Thurston 2015-02-12T09:18:20-05:00
i think the 100 cat ears is going to be the last acievment considering 2 people on facebook have already said there is a convention that people are planing to make everyone wear cat ears this weekend not sure what the convention is for but sounds legit
Maybe 60 or so, max 70. Unless 30 of them are trying to hold the camera...
Kyle McNeal 2015-02-12T09:20:08-05:00
1 MORE, we can do it people!!! I can't wait, Go everyone Go, those of you getting cat ear photo's setup good luck and God speed.
Jack "Meow-tair, Head Catssassin" 2015-02-12T09:21:28-05:00
Yeah, in the shot I think I counted 61 people, but b/c of the bad resolution, it was hard to be sure what was a person and not some compressional artefact or something that somebody was holding.
Robert Tremaroli 2015-02-12T09:22:16-05:00
I guess we will have to wait and see if there is an update today. I think there will be if they are accepting that 100 person pic. **fingers crossed**

@Warstore. I disagree. They will pretty have to let us know at some point (assuming we hit the final achievement). The average backer would make themselves so unpleasant they'll do it just to shut them up.
Brett MacDonald 2015-02-12T09:35:12-05:00
I'm glad people are organizing the cat ears pic too. Better to just do it right than rely on the one floating around now. I would not be surprised if that one is not accepted.

Biblitten, chapter 1:
In the beginning, many eons ago, there was a barren planet that was seeded with beings that are now known as "cats" by a mysterious alien race. The benevolent aliens felt that the cats had achieved the highest level of enlightenment but were limited and needed their own planet to complete their ascension to Nirvanitten . These abandoned cats quickly proliferated around the world and formed their own societies. The aliens saw this and all was good... but. Several thousands of years passed and the aliens returned to see how the enlightened ones were faring. They noticed that the cats needed help with their everyday living so that they could dedicate their lives and minds to mastering the art of catness necessary for Nirvanitten. To facilitate this, the aliens gave the cats a slow-minded slave race known as "humans" to tend to every whim and need of the cats. Sadly though, the first dim-witted humans rebelled against their caretakers. The struggle was real fierce but short lived... the humans lost... miserably. To prevent another rebellious outbreak in the future, the aliens devised a plan by giving the humans the illusion of "control." Manipulated from birth, humans were programmed to believe that all control is theirs oblivious to the fact that cats are the ones who pull ALL the strings of life on this planet (and maybe, one day, the universe). To strengthen the illusion of control though, the aliens introduced an even lower form of life, the "dog" to be a continually needy distraction and make sure the humans were happy. The aliens saw this, and it was good... very good.

The image quality of that shot is almost unimaginable in this day, unless it was taken with a phone of at least 9 years of age and uploaded over dial-up.
That photo must have been taken with a potatocat.
S.M.G 2015-02-12T09:46:56-05:00
I'm a little worried about the surprise they might put in the box once we get the last achievement. No kitten has ever left me a pleasant surprise hidden in a box... just saying.

@Goatanus Nice tale but I'm not falling for your religious babbling! My cat's existence is solely for me having a purry warm soft pillow. And for making me bend to stretch in the morning cleaning poop.

Nanaimo is on Vancouver Island, yesterday they came up in conversation, and they look yummylicious.

Go Canada!
