Nice challenge. Points was much nicer than just kills, though I would understand if you raised the points needed to 150 to make it a little more work, since averaging 10 points a match isn't unreasonable.

[Wildstreak]

This and the other are better than before.

Well I completed your challenge PGI with a stock AWS-8Q. 10 kills and 50 assists. Btw, please kindly remove min-range from the game and/or stock mechs like MW4, toodles.

… I feel strange saying it, but somewhere between only needing 100 points and getting 5 for a kill, this seemed easy, what with assists counting atoll …

[White Bear 84]

Took out my Awesome 8R missile boat and squashed a ton of clan mechs. Easiest challenge ever, done in 5 rounds.

Challenges need to be a bit more challenging or have some twist..

Says it ends at 11:59 PDT August 17th. But shows under challenges that it says 35 hours left.

Well the sdr-5v was on the list of approved mechs if you were looking for a more challenging challenge.

Yup, still counting on the morning of the 18th, which I am glad for, since I didn't get a chance to do this earlier. Can probably chock it down to the counter being set the same as for the tournament, or another [typo] on the graphic for the event.

Fixed that for you

Thanks for the mechbay. And for having the kto-18 champion as a trial to make it easy to complete the challenge. (Yeah I was that guy, sorry)

My Salker 5S, Atlas DDC and Raven 3L stop at 48% points for challenge yesterday I kill, i assist for nothing

More 4 kills and various assist and only 56% from 48% ??? What computer you have PGI? Dont work in Europe? I quit...

Pretty sure I was in a match with a guy piloting that who didn't know how to move his mech, so you cannot possibly be "that guy" after witnessing that.

Haha, well I am not a great pilot but I did manage to stay in the 250-500 damage range most of the time. And in my defense 20 or so of my points were in my spider 5v.

Thank you for the mechbay.

On difficulty... due to time constraints and bad luck, I failed the Steiner version totally, scoring a mindblowing 0% kills for that... This time, I got 2 kills and 94 assists before successful finish (5 assists in the last game, at 99% before it), with 6 or 7 games granting me a flat 0 points. In other words, I am happy the challenge is actually doable even for someone like me, who has very variable luck. My best couple of games netted me 7 assists each, but most were not nearly as great in terms of results, though I did get several good laughs out of various player made jokes along the way.

The Stalker 5S and the Atlas DDC are not on the list of mechs that count towards the challenge, so only your Raven 3L contributions were counted. Read the first post in this thread.

[Wildstreak]

Thankfully, I have plenty of generic Mechs in my bays that could fit any of these challenges.
Well, now I got 4 open MechBays, if another 2 House challenges comes up over the next couple of weekends, I will not have the decision problem I once posted of choosing between Thunderbolts (got 1 9S) and Centurions (got 1 A{C}), there will be enough room for all CB variants of both plus one extra bay leftover since there should be 3 more of these Challenges.

Atlas DDC, 5 kills and 0% in challenge. Very nice game you have PGI someone won my kills and assists

The AS7-D-DC is not on that list, which is why you were at 0%. Not their fault you did not read the list well.

[Girth Fillmore]

...or my reply to your previous post. Also, liking your own goofy posts is doubly goofy.

[Grayson Sortek]

I just wanted to say thanks to PGI!
My friends and I have jobs, errands, families, etc that we must attend to on the weekends in addition to working weekdays. A big thank you from those of us not lucky enough to get the challenge done in the 1st five matches, or with enough free-time to grind all weekend!

If you can't manage to play 10 - 15 games (at the absolute most!) over a four day period, how is that someone else's fault? The challenge is there to be completed; if you can't manage to do it, why come onto the forums and whine about your failure?
