The competition was closed March 4. Results were tallied and verified. PM for ingame IDs sent March 15.
We are having a competition!!!! The goal of this competition is to encourage variety in your weapons loadouts even if just for this activity. What can you receive from the Squadding Giveaway? Prizes include:Tier 1 (10 people) - 10 Typhons with 4 Cryos each Tier 2 (10 people) - 10 Typhons (no guns) Tier 3 (20 people) - 20 Hawks with 2 Glaciers each Tier 4 (40 people) - 40 Jaegers Instructions and Rules:1. Please note that only forum accounts registered BEFORE the posting of this giveaway qualify for this giveaway. Accounts registered after that will only be allowed to participate in future giveaways, not this one. 2. Please follow the instructions given in this post. 3. Update your Forum account to reflect your ingame Pilot name. 4. All posts must go in the relevant Competitions and Contests subforum thread dedicated to this competition. Only one post will be evaluated per account. 5. You get credit for documented screenshots indicating you killed another mech with a given weapon. Each weapon registering a kill will be counted only once. Any follow-on posts showing additional kills will be disregarded. 6. Kills obtained via mech-centric abilities are not counted.
7. Custom games are not allowed.
8. If you obtain kills via all weapons in a given "family" (more on that in a moment), you will obtain a bonus point. Please attempt to post pics of family kills near one another so counting your bonus points will be easier. If we miss it because you posted pics far apart, we won't be happy and neither will you. 9. The competition will run for one month beginning today (02/04/21, 10:00 GMT through 03/04/21, 10:00 GMT). The results thread will be locked on that day and the Mod Team will collate the results as quickly as we can. We will broadcast the results once we are finished tallying the points. 10. Weapons families for this competition are as follows (line breaks are only for improved readability): Punisher, Punisher-T, Avenger Molot, Molot-T, Tempest Aphid, Vortex, Thermite Spiral, Hydra, Chimera Pin, Tulumbas, Avalanche Spark, Scourge, Calamity Rime, Cryo, Glacier Magnum, Taran, Redeemer Pinata, Orkan, Exodus Halo, Corona, Glory Blaze, Igniter, Ember Marquess, Hussar, Dragoon Quarker, Atomizer, Nucleon Sting, Wasp, Viper Arbalest, Ballista, Trebuchet Gust, Storm, Thunder Shredder, Pulsar Noricum, Zenit Ion, Zeus Trident, Shocktrain Gekko, Flux Nashorn, Kang Dae
Scatter, Havoc, Devastator Volt, Weber, Gauss May the odds be in your favor! Cheers, The Mod Team |

Since the squadding competition didn't generate much interest (we had a fair amount of prizes that went unclaimed), we figured we'd change things up some.. |

So we can post up to 58 screenshots, one for each weapon kill for every weapon in the game.in return, one can earn up to 75 poins; one point for each weapon kill and one point for each complete weapon family.

Yeah, it is a whole lot of pictures. Unfortunately, doing a slideshow is likely not a viable option for a lot of members.
Just remember: As much of a PITA it is for the individual members, imagine being the poor sods who have to adjudicate all of them.

I got a little excited there. Well, that takes the screenshot pressure off. One less thing to manage when I'm gettin' my butt kicked by Poopface. |

PSST. Ollie. Hey! Ollie! Mods aren't eligible for forum competitions.

Ugh just like the use bot to do X task this is gonna encourage some fancy pseudo-tanking as people try and make a kill with a Molot Golem or something.
Welp time to get a free Typhoon xD
PS: Interesting that EMGs and Sonics aren't on the list. Sucks for me I guess

In the spirit of the competition shouldn't it have been a Typhon with a Cryo, an atomizer, a Havoc and a Hydra?
Good to see another competition here, well done mods.

Huh. I kind dig it. It has a certain cachet to it.
Sort of like a mix of Grandmaster Flash and Shock G popping coming to mind for some reason.
Why do I have an image of an OG turd with sunglasses, chains, rings and an entourage floating about in my brain?
Good grief. The dumb things I think of..........

Extra style points if you can do this way Just be sure the picture isn't too small. We need to be able to read the text!
That does help with the grouping, though.

hey so uh, how many people do you think will participate? cause I might end up spending my hard earned gold and grab a taran or an orkan of some sort to do this, I wanted to save gold for an au jun pilot or maybe with the new blitz, get a clive. currently at 1000 gold and could pick something up...
also, kinda sad about this but I only have one weapon family... the kinetic shot guns
also do titan weapons count??? cause those are weapons too... just sayin
also do special editions count as an extra point? say you can get one for normal glacier and you are able to get another for a sinister glacier.

hey so uh, how many people do you think will participate? I couldn't say. I would hope that a lot do, but we never know in advance. It all depends on interest. That's one reason why we're doing something different than the squadding one; we ended up with ungifted prizes for that one. also do titan weapons count??? cause those are weapons too... just sayin Titans weren't part of this competition. Maybe in the future, though.... also do special editions count as an extra point? say you can get one for normal glacier and you are able to get another for a sinister glacier. Good question! They do not. |
