Russ said over twitter that he is looking into a way to see if he can give folks a second bite at a Victor. Also, some other crazy event this weekend.... Prepare yourselves accordingly

[MadPanda]

Do you know what "looking into" means? It means go away and dont talk to me anymore.

[PauloBR]

He already said HE WILL turn on "To the Victors" again.
But he doesn't know if it's possible to return from where you stopped (this is what he's looking into).

That's the tricky bit it seems. Keeping the stats.

What about the people who got it the first time? Will they be eligible for a different reward?

[SgtMagor]

good news, give peeps a chance to get the (C) Vic!

[LORD TSARKON]

Sounds to me not alot of people won the challenge.... ( I did not.. although its hard on the weekends with Work,ect)... also because of the holidays perhaps there were fewer people online to do the challenge?

He didn't mention anything about what you are asking.

PussWarrior is to come back this weekend? How shocking...

[Khobai]

well im all for them rerunning the challenge so everyone has a chance at the victor.

but it doesnt seem fair to the players who stuck it out and got it the first time if theyre rerunning the challenge... especially if theyre going to make it easier.

players who completed the challenge the first time should get something extra.

[orcrist86]

From his tweets it sounds like there will be 2 challenges/ events

could change the  (C) icon to (VC-Victor Challenge) for peeps who finished the original challenge

Be cool if I can get a 2nd Victor (C)!

Getting it the first time was a combination of skill, stubbornness, and/or blind dumb luck.

Though in many of the games, people acting like cowards is usually what caused a loss, it didn't stop people from acting that way. Personally I feel I really stepped it up. In the games where I was dropped with only the bare minimum number of chicken derps, I managed to have some excellent results.

Even having 3 more days of premium time would be good. After I got my Victor, I used the remaining time to skill up my Ice Ferrets and Mist Lynxes all through basics.

I would bet it's opt in only this time, with previous winners locked out.

[Novakaine]

Well made it up to 16 and I got tired and had to go to work later.
Played tetris then passed out.
Had a surprisingly good nights rest.

[Ten Ton]

This is great news, I already have my victor but I would really look forward to running that challenge again, it was excellent.

I asked him if those who got it the first time could get a second, and he said no.

I got about half way thought friday night, then quit MWO for the weekend, the game-play was too frustrating. On the other hand, if I keep my current victories, that champion victor probably scraps for 3 million, plus a spare 350XL, and a garage bay.
