No matter if you guy/girl or whatever, Cheevos impress people. It's almost like saying 'Well, I got tons of Cheevos. There are tons of people online that are interested and respect me."

You might be thinking 'Oh that's complete BS, I personally don't care about Cheevos when dating'.
And yeah, you are probably telling the truth, but it's in your sub-concious. Sort of like how girls always like the bad guy, but never admit it.

Braggin about your Cheevos sometimes makes you look conceited, but that's a good thing. It like how celebraties look conceited because they're rolling VIP into clubs and you're stuck in line.

'Brewer' asks 'What happens if you're cheevo talking at a bar, club or party and someone says they have more cheevos that you?'
Well, hopefully they are just hating and are lying. First look up their score with your cellphone, make sure you have a page bookmarked where you can check. If you catch them in a lie, you look even better.
If they are telling the truth and have more Cheevos than you, leave. Nothing else you can do. Buy the person a drink and leave, unless you're willing to look 2nd best. If you brought a date, odds are she's going to be impressed with the higher gamer score and ditch you. Get out as soon as you can and go to some other party.
I've heard many females that have over 100k complain that they have a limited dating pool because they don't want to date down. This could get very complicated. You might want to have a one night stand with someone of Bboy360's looks, but it's another thing to show up at E3 holding hands with someone that only has 20k Cheevos. I'd try to find something that will make up for the lack of cheevos like being a reality star or something.
I've made a equation I'm still working on to help with dating on your level:
Points = (Cheevos * 2) + youtube views + social media fans(myspace, facebook) + (breakdance skill leve(1-10) * 50,000)

My Gamerscore is pretty low and I've never platinumed a game either. Achievements/trophies are fun when they pop up but I don't really go out of my way for them.

Do they give you points you can use to show how much more of a gamer you are than another person?

I really like that PS4 lets you see % of game owners who have gotten a trophy (idk if Xbox does too). Guilty Gear Xrd - SIGN - has an achievement for turning on the game for the first time and like 6% of people who bought the game don't have it.

This was really interesting with bloodborne. As you go from boss to boss the % decreases at an almost predictable rate

My understanding is that developers have always had access to that information, which is why you always get a chievy when finishing levels or chapters, because they wanted to track how many people were actually finishing heir game and when they stopped. Glad everybody has access to that info now
