So when is this event supposed to happen? I have had 2 matches since 11:00 today and both scored well over the 150 cut line and I did not get the bonus 250K that is supposed to be given to any mech running and scoring.

Thank you PGI. Another Solid event. I will enjoy my 20 Million C-bills to replace the WHKs I just bought.

All the flames and whining needs to stop. I think its nice that I get a little extra swag b/c I shelled out 160 for both packages long before the Blood Pact add-ons. I spend money on the game b/c I enjoy it and I want it to remain solvent. Absolutely nothing about any of these events equals P2W. None of the rewards give me any advantage over anyone who hasn't spent a dime. I don't really even need the c-bills, but I am sure some others will enjoy the 10 Million free ones they can "earn." If you want to keep this game alive, PGI needs revenue. Those that provide that revenue get early access to mechs a month or two early. Adding some extra fluff rewards onto a contest means absolutely nothing. Think of it as a frequent flyer rewards program. Because you fly 200 legs a year, you get to board early, get seat upgrades, free checked bags, and free drinks. Because your spending helps keep the airline in business you get a few perks. Those perks don't get you to your destination ahead of others, it just makes the process a bit easier.

No offense to the community warfare folks, but the number of folks playing at any one time is 150-200 max lately. While I think this event should also work in CW, the numbers right now, don't really prioritize CW for much special attention. I enjoy community warfare on occasion and will definitely be playing it again after the next wipe and added economy goes in.

Ok, for whatever reason I do not get 250k cbills on non-R mech even if I get match score above 150. Anyone with the same problem? And is there any way to fix that? Tournament page says that I should be eligible for those 250k per match played today...

Which COCKPIT ITEMS do they give away for transfusions ?

PS: Until now I got the following useless items:
Cockpit Items: Standing Spider Statue Redeem Code
Cockpit Items: Halloween Skull Face Redeem Code

My God, how did you even find this? It was perfectly hidden under Blood Transfusion bonuses count, and as I am not eligible for them I payed no attention for this part of tournaments page... Seriously, such information needs a bigger font at least.

Thank you PGI for the free bees. I bought both packs and this event just is icing on the cake. It can help rebuild the 100 million I spent on building a clan deck.

Now as others have pointed out it is PAST TIME for a wild CW event. One that will get EVERYONE playing!

Please do not kill CW!

For anyone who is legitimately upset - save up your money for this: http://harebrained-s...ith-battletech/

Otherwise, just enjoy your 10 million free cbills. That'll get you a few modules or (most of) a new, fully rigged chasis.

After I did not receive the extra C-Bills I used the browser to search for "bills" and found that :)

You mean there are alternatives to spending an insane amount of money on an online deathmatch simulator? *Gasps*
Well PGI, I've given you a lot of $, hoping for something more... Well now I have it, but it's not from you. I think I'll be taking the next amount of $ that I would have spent on a pack or bundle and put it towards this.

No skin off of PGIs back, I've already given them what? 6-8 games worth of funding? Just hoping that they will be so gracious as to develop something more with that funding. I'll keep the account and play some pug matches when I feel like playing a mindless shooter, but at least I don't have to torment myself with the hope that they will develop a real game.

Thank you so much, thank you, thank you, thank you. There is hope.
