Should start in 10 minutes and I have yet to see an announcement...

[Wieland]

Nothing this weekend i would say.

[Dulahan]

There probably isn't one this weekend. We've been spoiled lately, but it's not always been a weekly thing.

[EvilCow]

May be they are tired to see people complaining about rules each single time there is a challenge.

[Rhialto]

That's what I was thinking too... a quiet weekend before the storm in a few weeks?

[Dulahan]

It's a good thing. I mean, last weekend was Double XP. This one nothing. Helps recover some 'fatigue' from overplaying.

FRIENDLY FIRE FEEDING FRENZY WEEKEND!!

THAT'S RIGHT, MECHWARRIORS! TO CONTINUE WITH THE WEEKEND CHALLENGES THAT FOSTER POOR GAMEPLAY, WE'RE IMPLEMENTING FRIENDLY FIRE FEEDING FRENZY WEEKEND. TEAR UP THOSE BLUE TRIANGLES FOR FUN AND PRIZES! FOR EVERY 1 POINT OF DAMAGE YOU CAUSE TO YOUR TEAMMATES, YOU WILL RECEIVE A BONUS OF 1 CBILL. THAT BONUS IS DOUBLED IF YOU ARE ZOOMED IN WHEN YOU DO IT.

[terrycloth]

That would actually be pretty cool. Just fighting it out on the spawn point wouldn't pay -- you'd still want to actually win and kill enemy mechs. But it would still happen anyway. q:3

THATS RIGHT, INSTEAD OF ASSUMING OUR PLAYER BASE HAS THE 10 BRAIN CELLS NEEDED TO REALIZE THAT KILLING YOUR TEAMMATES IS BAD AND THAT EVENTS IN NO WAY AFFECT THE BEHAVIORS OF PEOPLE IN THE NORMAL GAMEPLAY WHEN WE AREN'T RUNNING AN EVENT. WE ARE JUST GOING TO START TEACHING PEOPLE TO BE BAD BECAUSE CLEARLY YOU ARE ALL GETTING A REAL THRILL OUT OF HUMPING YOUR TEAMMATE'S LEGS AND THUS GETTING SHOT WHEN THEY CAN'T SEE YOU IN THEIR BLIND SPOT!!!!11!!

Same as every weekend, try and get laid and live through the hangover.

[Greenjulius]

Since CW open beta is set to start the 16th, I kind of figure things will be quiet so resources are fully utilized for the launch.

[Ursh]

When there's no challenge, there's something resembling normal gameplay. If you really need challenges to keep you motivated, may I suggest you try getting a promotion at your job. If you don't have a job, I suggest taking on the challenge of getting one.

[bluepiglet]

No challenge is always better than a broken challenge. Just played a bit, yep, a lot less LurmWarriors than the last couple weekends, making the game actually playable.

Yeah....I gotta come up with some more. Play around with photoshop.

"Raindrops keep falling on my head" weekend.....
"Carlos Hathcock Day" .....

I'm drawing a blank. Need coffee...

[Rushmoar]

They have a big dead line to meet for the next patch so challenge is not a priority at the moment. CW on the way no matter what state it is in.
