The calculation of many achievements (e.g. "Log in every day for an entire week" or "Complete 5 adventures against pirates")
started after the maintenance that took place on the 7th of May 2014. Players will be able to check their current progress in the Achievements System interface that will be activated with the maintenance on 20.05.2014 22.05.2014.
