Though, gotta say, if they mad a badass King Crab statue... I'd buy one.

OH YES!

Yep, loved the event. (err..."love" the event -- as it's still running) The only downside is the time to play CW games. There's no way I'd have enough time to complete 50 CW games...or more assuming the odd ghost drop which won't net 80 points. We'll maybe, but that's still around 25 hours of play just for CW.

But, unlike last week the CW games I got this time were all PUGs for the most part, which was nice. No getting rolled by 12 man groups, or spawn camping. There was the odd big group, but oddly they were not that skilled for a change.

Will be in CW again tonight to try to get a few more lucky charms. Plus I'm close to the next loyalty level...$600,000 cbills and a can of pop. (Pop must be really expensive/rare in the future.)

I have a ton of fun with these events.

Only lucky charms left are 15 counter attacks in CW

I let my daughter click the boxes as she finds doing that fun. Got me a mech-bay, 5 days of premium time, bunch of MC, C-Bills, and GXP. Only 2 unlucky if I recall correctly.

Thanks PGI!

I am not sure what is going on for me. But Man since this event started. I have match after match that ends and I confirm that I have well over the score needed to qualify and nothing. No reward after no reward. its been rough.

Are you going to mwomercs.com/tournaments , and clicking on the little boxes? You can only get 25 to each game mode... So if you've been doing all the same mode, you'll only wind up with a max of 25 so far...

[InRev]

I love these events. They're actually, dare I say it . . . FUN!

(even though I did get a flamer as an "unlucky" draw . Buff the flamers for crying out loud! )

[GH05T]

Yup Twilight I have the page up and refresh it often. Log in and log out sometimes as well. and I have not got 25 in either category yet. Yesterday I had several matches repeatedly up in the 80+ (public quee) and seemed only about 1 in 3 would register.
Love the event. First time one of the prize box events has caused me issue. Last night alone my last three qualifying matches did not show up. This AM when I got up one of them was redeemable.

May I refer you to this post? In short - check the other gamemode tabs even though they say "0/25."

[GH05T]

Yes Blood I have checked each tab. The user is not Human error. The Matches just are not awarding me bags on about 2 out of 3 matches. I will 30+ on a match and still not get any tokens.

This has been a fantastic event.

Between the rewards being based on (relatively easily) attainable match scores AND the event running the entire week, I vote this one of the best events run by MWO.

I really want to stress how important running the event for the entire week is. I was able to participate in this event without shunning my friends and family on the weekend. I was able to spend what my wife refers to as a "reasonable" amount of time playing MWO and enjoyed most of the available rewards for the event. Please, more week long events.

This. So much of this.

10-15 minutes?

[capt hungry]

I like these grab bag events. Made 1.5M in Cbills, 1500GXP and 115MC. Pretty good haul for me.

But the LRMs............

Is it over yet?

Just a Note

Still have 20 games i played last night that none have registered

Friday and Sat.everything seemed to register right, Sunday every second to third game would register then nothing will register.

Finnished the Assault and Skirmish matches though a lot of them were not registering by Sunday.

Conquest is all that I liked finnishing and only needed 3. Played at least another 20 games in that mode last night and it still never registered any of them. I have screen shots of the matchs results and most of them were way above what was needed to make the score. So ckecked today and still nothing. Will continue on playing to see if these three matchs will register today. It's Monday.

And yes I was playing myself for a Mech bay as I have all the other stuff. Didn't get one, just luck of the draw i guess.

PGI needs to make items in Cockpit area sellable, as well as in the Consumable area.

You end up with lots of stuff you just don't want. Not knocking the Contest or any Events just a fact.

I've also noticed that support doesn't answer tickets anymore to. Have had tickets in since the 4th of the month and even resubmitted them as some of my clan members have told me to. I guess support took a long vacation.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well it seems that it is working today, at least it recorded the matchs i did today, though not last nights as that would have finished the event for me last night. Which would have been fine.

I do like the fact they extended the event so more people can get in and play that can't due to RL time.

I hate to sound ungrateful but the GXP "prizes" are a waste for many players. A few MC and the x2 XP to GXP conversion will get one thousands. Sometimes even the extra medium lasers look good, or even better, a clan weapon or two, though I would have to draw a line at flamers. Heck, the hunk of coal I got during the Christmas event has been of use as a cockpit paper weight. Anyway, all aside, I really enjoyed the event. Thanks PGI.

Save the MC consumables for comp games, or if you don't play comp then just use them in a rando pub game.

[LordLosh]

I like the GXP. get the Pokemon fever and grind new mechs then you will like GXP.
Its not a waste move along

[G SE7EN7]

Great to see so many more playing CW at the end of this event. Maybe we should have CW only events since thats the game mode of the future.

[Ulfgar Snorrison]

Oh yay! Oh yay! I'm rich! I'm rich! I'm fabulously wealthy! I'm socially secure!! Just got my third day of Premium Time...FOR FREE!. Thank you PGI.
