Hi Topbanders !


Everything is easy to fix.

There should be a strict separation of achievements -

1. They are made only by man.

2. They are made only on the computer.


Delete Mixed Achievement Chart :

And then FT8 (and many future FTs ....) will lose popularity.

Only children will play with them ...
