Installing Ubuntu Accomplishments
So you want to try out the Ubuntu Accomplishments? Luckily, this is very simple.
Note 1: This installation method uses a daily builds PPA. If you want to build the application manually from it's source code, please use another guide.

FAQ
How can I force a re-verification of my trophies?
Click File -> Check Accomplishments.
The application does not give me trophy for something I have accomplished!
Keep in mind that when Ubuntu One happens to lag a bit, the validation server may take some longer time to send you validated trophies. Also try re-verification your trophies. And double-check if your credentials are correct. If the application still misbehaves, report a bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-accomplishments-system/+filebug
How do I clear out my trophies so I can re-verify them?
Your trophies directory lives in ~/.local/share/accomplishments/trophies. In that directory is a sub-directory for each collection of trophies. Just rm -rf * everything or even remove the sub-directories.
How do I clear out my user information so I can re-enter it?
Your trophies directory lives in ~/.local/share/accomplishments/trophies. In that directory is a sub-directory called .extrainformation - just delete it.
