For various reasons (mostly of good intentions, I think) I decided to do a giveaway for this year's birthday of mine. The prize will be a regular pack for the newly announced Kodiak mech, when it's available for sale. Addendum: You can also choose between the Warhammer, Archer, and Rifleman pack, if you do not want the Kodiak.
I personally do not buy any packs for myself since I disagree with PGI's pricing, but for giving to others, it is a different story. Still, you will have to work for it.

So here is the deal: Since I was born on 82.02.03, first guy who shows me the screenshot of a exactly 823 damage game, done during the time frame between the start of February 3rd until the end of February 14th, will be eligible to receive the prize. (the damage must be dealt by the participant) Which means you have two weekends to finish the requirements, so no rush, eh? Second Addendum: 823 match score will also count, though it is even harder to do.

Since 823 exact damage/score is hard to achieve, I will set one another condition. In the case of no one managing to get 823 damage/score when the time limit is up, the person who had posted the most screenshots of games where he had dealt damage in combination of the numbers 2, 3, and 8, such as 238, 382, and 832, will win the prize instead. For CW matches, damages such as 2238, 3288 will count as well.

Obviously, cheating is not tolerated--such as photoshopping, farming damage with the other side's consent, and posting matchscores that was done before February 3rd of 2016. The bread tastes the sweetest if it was made by the sweat of your brows, so no cheating!

Best of luck, gents.

Good thing the number 823 is a prime number, eh? Makes things harder. Posted Image

This guy can do exactly 823 damage: KGC-0000
  • 20x AC/20 = 800 damage
  • 1x triple SPL = 12 damage
  • 1x LPL = 11 damage
  • Total = 823 damage
May the force luck be with you!

I won't participate (because the Kodiak is a filthy clan mechs for filthy clanners), but you're awesome, Bandito. Posted Image

That's too simple. Right now I'm running with a confidential Shadowcat build that I brainstormed that is going to be a much larger pain to run and will most likely fail.

I doubt I'll get lucky enough to land the damage total, and I'm not going to have a go at the secondary objective, but I would love a Kodiak pack for my Clan alt account.

Good on you for running this, El Bandito.

This guy should do the job even better: KGC-CB (challenge breaker)
  • 27x of dual Gauwz = 810 damage
  • 1x of Lightning bolt = 10 damage
  • 1x pew = 3 damage
  • Total = 823 damage!!!!!11!
I win internets!!

FYI: Even if someone posts one before me, I'm still aiming to get that damage, and for one reason only: Mother Nature herself is trying to stop me. Had a match that would have been perfect, just a few shots away from the magic numbers, and then my power cut out for a few seconds due to a storm. Now it's personal, late-winter/early-spring rainstorms!

How interesting... cost nothing to try!

It could be a suggestion for PGI to include the match ID in the scoreboard... we see many of those around the web so if for any reason one doubt of something they could validate if real or fake.

Happy Birthday!
