Congrats on bringing more HGN's to the fight, house Steiner. I know you might even mix it up with a DDC or two, and possibly a Banshee that can barely walk under it's weight in AC/PPC.

Wow, you are really angry. As for me I enjoy the weekend and I will participate in this tournament with a Firestarter and a Trebuchet.

Were so happy you can play now what about the rest of us that opted into the tournament?are we in or not? mine says no im not opted in!!!! so here I will post this idea for you one more time.

(Where is a Admin when you need one? I opted into this challenge before the deadline and it says sorry you have not opted in here is some advise PGI just make it where if players show up between the start and Finnish times of a challenge there automatically =(OPTED) in to said tournament. )

Unfortunately you will have no chance at placing in the top 1-3 for any faction using a Trebuchet or Firestarter, and end up as cheap kills for those who do run the AC/PPC builds.

Regretably, people are angry for a reason... imo, a valid reason.

20 games on point with 1994 #1 overall, too bad proton wants to play tomorrow.

It has been my experience that the gap between the Meta builds and a decent non-meta build is to small to make the non-meta a "cheap" kill.

But then that would be my experience alone - and even a 0.000000000001% improvement is massive in the seriously competitive areas of any game.

Okay, no completion indicator in the Challenges tab in my profile... (taps microphone) is this thing on?!

[Wildstreak]

Curious, if anyone could, post whatever rank you are shown at. I think such numbers give a rough idea of how many played thus somewhere around how many are playing MWO.

Right now after only 3 games, I am #416. This doesn't sound good and I don't mean for me.

Funny thing, hover over the Play Now button ever since they made this feature, the popup box says Light and Medium are the ones to play to get in matches faster.
Still takes anywhere up to a minute too!

I would have expected one for the Hula Girl item.

It isn't a challenge like the usual.

We didn't get one for the last faction challenge either, as this counts as a tourney.

Updates are here

So would I, and yet the last faction challenge didn't have it's counter either

Solo only faction pride tournament,

This never ceases to crack me up.

Yep. This is totally a BONE HEADED MOVE on PGI's part.

Dropping solo is the suck. These players simply refuse to listen or follow any kind of tactical advice.

I'll be doing my 10 matches for the loot then moving on to World of Tanks where at least their events are geared towards rewarding the player instead of causing rage quits.

Well i guess I will bag game play for the weekend and go do the WarThunder Tanks challenge it is a automatic opt in and no BULLSHITT like MWO'S.

I am going to check this game out right now. I've been wanting to do so but World Of Tanks has kept me busy.

[Sagittarius Magnus]

Thanks for the PGI workers Forget!

I was at work, probably too late to sign up!!

[Divine Retribution]

Played last tourney. I think that's a good explanation of why I am passing this tourney. Good luck to those that are participating.

[Sagittarius Magnus]

last month i was place 9

[Deathlike]

If you read the rules, the Hula Girl is received at the completion of this tourney...

This weekend we're having Faction Challenge Revenge! This is your chance to take your skills to the Battlefield with House Pride! All participants who play 10 matches will receive a free Hula Girl cockpit manually injected at the end of the tournament!

[Sagittarius Magnus]

not for me

to late for sight in

[ZachMan119]

Do you get anything for op'ting in?

[Alaskan Nobody]

Just for opting in, no, unless your faction wins,

For playing 10 matches you get a Hula Girl, though

[Wildstreak]

Seems that Hula Girl is some kind of really important item. Look at the first four bundles with the Jenner, Hunchback, Catapult, Atlas, every one had a Hula Girl.

Does your Mech become god mode with a Hula Girl?

[CarNaGe X]

Guess i was late to opt-in as i cant see myself on the leaderboard. Dont see the need to have set time to have to opt-in by as it decreases the amount of people playing the tournament. Hope this is changed in the future.
