That info is given in the previous posts....but....

There are 4 game modes to play in:

Skirmish
Assault
Conquer (correct me if I'm wrong...I usually just play Skirmish )
And the new Clan Warfare mode

When you play a match in one of these modes and get the required number of points, you get a gift.
But you only get a maximum of 25 gifts per mode.

So for example, if you played 25 matches in Skirmish mode and had the required 30 points in each match, you would have received a gift for each of those. But any matches you play in Skirmish mode after that, even if you got 30 or more points would no longer give you a gift.
This would be the same for each of the 4 modes...except in Clan Warfare mode you need 80 points in a match to get a gift.

So with a possibility of 25 gifts per each of the 4 match modes, you could get up to 100 gifts.

PS: You will need to log into your account on this website to claim the gifts as you get them. Should be under your profile and the challenges or something. (sorry...brain is a bit mushy this morning.)

Glad they are doing this event again. CW has become such a drag with the long wait times and trolls. I just want to shoot stuff.

[ThatGuy539]

If it's like the last event, all you need to do is click on this link (http://mwomercs.com/tournaments), log in, and there should be a list of your matches at the bottom of the screen. Any that you got a gift in will have a button next to them that you need to press to get the gift. (You can do this after every match, or whenever you have time. But they will expire 2 hours after the end of the event on Jan 2nd. So redeem them before then.)

There will probably be a 15 minute delay between the matches and when you see the web-page update.

When you click on a button to redeem a gift it should show up in your game after the next match you play, or if you shut down and restart the game.

You should also be able to track the progress on this site under your Profile -> Stats -> Challenges.

First item, single heatsink, I've been naughty

[RazorbeastFXK3]

Yes as to the update "All you have to do is earn a match score of 80 or above in Invasion mode ***and*** a score of 30 or above for any other game modes to unlock a chance to reach into the stocking for a random Prize!!"

That's the 'and' I was asking about. I understand that we cannot be in both at once with one account but wasn't sure if I needed to participate in an Invasion in order for the skirmish/assault/conquest modes to be counted or not. I guess it's more of a play on words.

Three possibilities come into play (that I know of) where this is event is concerned:

You need this "or" that to earn the prize.

You need this "and/or" that to earn the prize.

You need this "and" that to earn the prize.

Where this event is saying we need 80 points in Invasion Mode "and" 30 points in any other game modes to get a chance at winning a prize.

After thinking about it I know that instead of asking all this I could just jump into a few battles without participating in Invasion Mode to find out first hand but my curiosity usually doesn't follow most rules of engagement when it comes to wondering about anything.

It's 80 for an Invasion match (longer match, more opportunity to earn match score) or 30 for a regular match. you can't possibly be in both at the same time, they are mutually exclusive. It is the "match score" as displayed in the end of round screen on a per match basis.

[FrDrake]

They meant OR, if you want to play this game you should really learn to speak Canadian.

30 points in skirmish
30 points in assault
30 points in conquest
80 points in Comm. Warfare

25 for EACH mode

100 prizes maximum

You can't get any more black and white than this.

[cSand]

Great event and even better that non-invasion mode can participate too.

Yeehaw

[ThatGuy539]

I was going to say that it's just one reward per match. But now that I think of it, I think there were multiple rewards during the last event like this. So if you get 60 points in a regular match you may get 2 rewards.

Will find out when I get home tonight. :-)

[Nometh]

During the Halloween event it was not, so I believe your rewards are not tied to your scores this time either.

[CaptainFuture]

hi!

i have the feeling some games don't register properly. some games that would be more than qualified are missing in my list. and others that would not too. anyone else notice this ?

Have had at least 1 match (winning) not show up and many more not registering at all..plenty of time has passed too..

[Nick Drezary]

This event type is great! Thank you, PGI.

[Motörhead]

so far I'm unlucky but still funny.

of course it's better to play normal games at the moment, at least until you run out of prizes.

Well, my "best" reward was my highest score redeemed thus far but I only tried three, so don't nail it.

My best score (109) awarded me 112.500 Cbills. My worst score (42) awarded me 112.500 Cbills. Looks pretty random.

[Lily from animove]

first grab in the stocking: 1 flamer xD

second 10mc, 3rd 5 mc. not bad at all.

[Inveramsay]

Three priority air strikes in a row for my three CW games so far. Maybe I have enough now to warrant putting them on a mech of mine

[ThomasAH]

Does it take much longer than 15 minutes to register or are there currently any problems?
Or are there other conditions? Like not dying or not disconnecting when dead?

Edit: It probably is just a delay ... If the used mech could be displayed in the list (like for earlier events) then it might be easier to connect a game with an entry in the list.
And thank you for this event!
