Game Center Achievements- re-achieving the same achievement?

bluellama

I've just published my first game and it is on the App Store, but I am finding an issue that I thought would just be a Sandbox problem... it's now still an issue in the live app.

I have an achievement called "collect 1000 bananas" that counts the total accumulated bananas over each game the players plays. The tally is recorded in a table that is saved after each game, and the game center achievement is updated based on that table.

I was under the impression that Apple would only recognize the achievement when it was first unlocked, since I have selected that option in iTunes connect. However it keeps on notifying me that the achievement is unlocked again at the end of every game (although the points are only awarded once)

Here is the link to my game so you can see what I mean: http://itunes.apple.com/app/id1025807715

Thanks for your help.
