Hmm, I'm not sure that achievers are the largest group. The most
widely-played computer games are things like solitaire, chess,
hearts, etc. Parlor games mainly, which seem to be attractive to
people largely because of the social element that goes along with
them, not because of any achievement-oriented mechanisms.
