I'm toying around with the Facebook APIs for a game I'm developing as a hobby project, after reading through the facebook SDK documentation, I'm still a little unclear as to what is required for developing games on the platform.
This is what I have :
I want to make the game "social" by adding achievements/friends lists, the facebook API seems like a good candidate for doing so
This is what I'm trying to achieve :
Question : Can I use the scores and achievements APIs from facebook without having my game deployed onto a backend server?

Statisticians and students use the t-score in a t-test to do hypothesis testing when they compare two or more sets of data or multiple pieces of data within the same set. Since t-scores describe similarity in terms of standard deviations, a smaller t-score means similar data and a larger one means more variation.
Like z-scores, t-scores are also a conversion of individual scores into a standard form. However, t-scores are used when you don't know the population standard deviation; You make an estimate by using your sample. T = (X – μ) / [ s/√(n) ].
Calculating a t score is really just a conversion from a z score to a t score, much like converting Celsius to Fahrenheit. The formula to convert a z score to a t score is: T = (Z x 10) + 50. Example question: A candidate for a job takes a written test where the average score is 1026 and the standard deviation is 209.
Three measures of central tendency commonly used to interpret test scores are the mode, median, and mean. The simplest measure of variability is the range, the difference between the highest and lowest scores in the distribution. The standard deviation is the most common and useful measure of variability.
No, two reasons:
At the least, you need static pages describing the achievements, and a callback script you can hit from your mobile app which triggers the publishing to Facebook of the Scores and Achievements
Update 2012-09-06: it's no longer necessary to use the app access token to post scores and achievements, so you could use scores in a mobile app, but you still need a website to hold the achievement metadata
