A commemorative cockpit item would be nice, be even better if it represented finishing position. lol

Congrats to the winners.

I would like to see a future tournament where you have to drop in a group (maybe make it a mandatory assault/hvy/med/light lance) and rewards teamwork (kill assists are just as important as the kill shot),

Hear, hear about the inclusion of group players. I was very disappointed that group players were left out of this tourney, considering that I only play with a team.

In any case, congratulations to all of the winners, for sure.

It's so sad! I was busy this weekend, and i have only drop eleven matches in my SHD and four matches in my KTO...

Congratulations to all the winners, that was fun, and it was a very good idea, PGI! =)

Next time, i will invest more in the competition... He he he...

Congrats to all the other winners in their respective category, It was extremely fun and real tough, for me anyway as I had to contend with the game Blue screening each time I dropped on an ice map about 70% of the time. and being from Australia my ping sits at around 300 on a good day.

I agree it would be nice to have some added bonus like a gold skin or medal but the flip side I may become more of a target which could still be a good thing

Congratulations to the winners!

Suggestion: I think extended lists should be made available - top 100, for example - or a page where you can point out publicly what spot did you reach in that specific tournament.

My ranking in the categories where I dropped 1 time:

Lights: 2480 with 31 points
Heavy: 3332 with 61 points
Assault: 2183 with 284 points (must have dropped twice)
Blackjack: 790 with 50 points
Cicada: 1025 with 86 points
Hunchback: 1349 with 56 points
Trebuchet: 404 with 60 points

I'm too nice to go in and commit suicide to get a 10 point minimum and really get the count.

Wow, thanks for the info. I guess I can feel a little better about my 62nd place finish in the heavy catagory.

Yes you can. I worked hard to be barely in the top 100 in Griffin and it had much less traffic.

Congrats to all the winners. Too bad I didn't have much time to play this weekend, except a couple of hours each morning. Made it 19th in Cicadas, still room for improvement but most of my good scoring games were losses.

[Garegaupa]

Congratulations to the winners, you've worked hard for those positions! Respect!

Is there a way to know how many contestants there were in each category?

Yes, that would be interesting! I'd like to know what percentile my hard earned 320th place in assaults would put me in!

[Stijnovic]

Would be nice if they created a more detailed stats page for all the contestants. Maybe a nice graph with Rank on X and Points on Y would be interesting. Also a percentage, like maybe I am within the top X% of players. (also number of drops would be interesting to know...)

Anyway, I'm quite happy being 72nd with my Shadowhawk (2036 points), congrats all winners!

[Goose of Prey]

I agree, some data would be nice.

Congrats to all the winners.

35th Heavy. Didn't see that happening.

Good luck, and be safe out there.

That's one of the reasons it would be nice if PGI shared some of the stats. Are Hunchbacks big with certain time zones, average number of matches played be mech type and/or variant and so on.

Did 1000 people drop 1 time each in a hunchback so you never saw them?

And to anyone who broke the top 100 for that matter. Sheesh. You guys don't half-ass things, do you?

Thanks, from the 80th Blackjack and 95th Hunchback. ^__^

Also, congrats to Water Bear, who I beat up in my BJ-1 after using up all my LB-X ammo. Figured you'd do well, you're a hard fight in that CDA.

yeah it kinda helps put things in perspective if you had some sort of grand total to go by. ok you broke the top 100 so you did good right? well if you dropped in trebs with only 400 people then you're barely in the top quarter. do that in hunchies and you're in the top 10% based on the numbers posted earlier. do that in the general assault/heavy/light category and you might be inside the top 5%.

on the other hand they may not want to put up numbers so people won't say "see? only X players in the game. it's dying!"

Thanks for posting on all those categories! It would be nice if PGI gave a total player count so that we can make sense of how we placed overall. I placed 26th in Hunches, but that 26th isn't particularly meaningful if only fifty people entered; know what I mean?

At least now I know a minimum number of people in my category.

Better luck next time Anonymous, and I will see you in game!

Yeah since many of us won't win prizes we can at least see where ranked overall. If not, I doubt I'll participate next time. Give us something (tourney badge?, top 100 top 200 color badge etc....)

I forgot that there was another "tournament"


grats to the winnars I 'spose.

[Merciless Hunter]

Well, I got 12 in my cicada, only 50 points away from 10th...........
