You cant win the cards, you get a certain amount after some playtime. You will only get some of them, not all of them

The clicker one is easy
i started a new game and i didnt touch a thing i went into the save file and replaced 0 (which was every value) for 999 i went into the game pressed play and it went into negatives fast but the achievement popped up easy
Vegas242 16 Jan, 2017 @ 5:02pm 
Yeah if you take Mengsk's save file your pointclicker points will stack overflow to the negatives pretty quickly, but you will get the achievement anyway

I cannot help you with that. But there are multiple threads with possible solutions to your problem.

I don't get Bit's final request. I did everything from the terminal
Jimmy Russell 15 Jun, 2016 @ 5:44pm 
I feel like if you accidentally make your pointclicker scores negative you can still get the achievement. Try typing rmdir [savename] then play the game again to make a new folder where you can try again.

Honestly disappointed WHITE and CSEC are the same, yet you'll completly skip over WHITE if you're not careful.
Jacko  [author] 8 Jun, 2016 @ 2:45pm 
The clicker one's difficult.
If the numbers go in the negatives, there's no way to make them positive again.
You'll have to start a new save if you want the achievement.
