This is my problem:

It doesn't consume my life or anything, but for someone who tries to get perfect on each game, it is really obnoxious that I can't get Master Miner, and that there was no warning that the achievements were going away. OOO's stance seems to currently be to "hide" it on Steam, which doesn't really address the issue, just lessens the confusion for new players.

So, one solution would be to add an NPC in a non-common place, along with a warning that the minerals will be wasted, and that the NPC is strictly for the achivement, and allow players to deposit 10k minerals. The Steam API achievement code is all still there, it's just not being used. This represents a minimal-effort solution where each side of players gets what they want.

This would mean a great deal to me!
