Just give "everyone" something for FREE and then Challenge the players to just say "Thanks". :)

Or just make them "survive" again. LOL!

they celebrate thanksgiving in the Peoples Republic of Canada?


We have to. The Party demands it, as does the People's Hero, our glorious Leader.

Be thankful, or be shot.

That's diabolical. Do you know how many people will win 2 then lose the third? YOU WILL RUIN PEOPLE'S LIVE AND DESTROY THEIR SOULS!

Oh wait, or 3 kills in one match. Yeah, totally doable :D

Something that doesn't require a huge time investment. I have a life, I can't be at the computer for 3 days straight, especially (ironically) on holidays.

Get 3 kills in a match and get a Turkey!!!

Oh wait, I am thinking of strikes and bowling :)

Honestly, I am hoping for another Halloween-like event. Maybe score 130 point and get to pick out of the horn of plenty or something like that. Either way I really want a "Participation" challenge where I can just enjoy the holiday than some far reaching goal the feels more like a chore than fun (which is how last weekends challenge felt).

There's a joke here about reaching into Paul's horn of plenty...

I like the 'get 3 kills, get a turkey dashboard item' TURKEY SHOOT!

We just figured it out.

Loosen matchmaker to allow for everyone to go obese. 3/3/3/X is available. Bring all the fatties!

An Awesome injected into every account for the tourney's duration. It comes pre-painted in colors reminiscent of a turkey. Dropping solo queue only, using the same formula as the just-ended Victor challenge, get 10 points using only the Awesome and you get it permanently, with a bonus mechbay to sweeten the deal.

The catch? To simulate how everyone feels after Thanksgiving dinner, the Awesome drops with the smallest, slowest XL engine, and launches with one leg (randomly determined each match) already destroyed. Oh, and it has standard heat sinks and no missiles or AMS equipped.

Happy hunting, Mechwarriors!

I got it. A Hero Warhawk that comes with a Leaf pattern and fall colors. Comes with its own mechbay, and a warhorn that looks like a Cornucopia (the horn looking thing with the fruit) that plays a turkey sound when you get a kill.

All pulse laser sounds are replaced with "gobble gobble" instead of "wub wub". All assaults get a turkey skin. If you kill one of those, you get slower but do more damage (only if at least 4 team mates are near to you).

I hope it is some sort of turkey hunt. Solo kill x number of Ravens or Warhawks.



I will be playing my raven 4X just for you.... the turkey needs to fly!

I dunno if OP saw yet but really it's gonna be a repeat of the challenge we just had. Which is pretty self explanatory.
