I had a very very good run without people noticing me, lol! it's the standard 1Gauss 3MPL GI.

I was probably maxing out my DPS whenever I had the chance. Best of all, not many teammates in my way to damage too!

EDIT: I also had a 1140dmg game in the GI but with way less kills, components destruction and more team damage, lol!

Nice!

You have to have both screenshots, one of your team stats, and one of your player stats after a match.

Otherwise what you have here isn't going to be a valid entry.

Oh, okay I didn't see the second one, I'm so used to seeing one jpeg with links like that.

Do you ever play something else? whenever I saw you you were in that hunchback. Not that it's bad or so, but that looks like a startin' addiction
How many XP does that thing has?

Sometimes i play other HBKs, if that counts? Only 3,9k of my 5,3k matches were in my 4G(F) though... And you are right, i have to update my signature, it is 4.2mil now... it is only that low because i converted tons of xp to gxp when modules were introduced...

Still going, and you should try Sarlic! I think you could win...

Also, going to start tallying up the score each person has with each mech.

We only have another week to go on this!

Only two people got the +35 bonus and if you had a match time of > 9:00 you were essentially behind a whopping 70 points. Now if you do the math by removing all the ludicrous time penalties:

If I were the Time God and I controlled all 24 players I could have put myself up to 254. If I had known the score formula penalized time so harshly I could have attempted to put myself at 254. What happened was I put my score in before I went to JRTC for 30 days before all of the information was in place and the time penalty killed it for me. I'm sorry but this is crap. I feel cheated and I'm sure that even if I offered a sacrifice to the blood god or whatever, nothing is going to change what was written in stone.

Um, I did put up the score formula in enough time so that you could edit or add in some better scores if you wanted.

I made that edit on the 28th of September, little under a month to give you plenty of time to get some good games and take screenshots of them.

I'm sorry that you got the time penalties, many others did too. That's what the Alive or Dead factor comes in, to balance out the Negative factor if the game was 9+ minutes long.

Balance? That's just lady luck. I can see the score jumping up 10 points for dying or living... but to base it off of how long you were in the game. Was this contest supposed to be some sort of relay race? Not based off of skill but to see how quickly you could finish a match. For example: My other match 18+20+64+30+35+42-2=207 You can look at both of the scoreboards and clearly tell which one I put more effort into, but they are only so close because of the 35+. My best score was 213. Am I losing my mind? Should I rearrange my eyeballs because there's something I missed? But hey????????? You know what. This is going in the brags on the 1st Mech Rangers website because I refuse to not be proud of it. You can have your 40$, I just wanted to save a little money.

My best score was 213. Am I losing my mind? Should I rearrange my eyeballs because there's something I missed?

F8, relax, the reason why I put in that basing it off how long one plays a match was to limit those who would stay back in a match and then clean up and do well, as in, getting 8 kills.

Let's do an example of that situation, with 8 kills. After that match ends, you got 8 kills, 600 damage, and 15 Component destructions.

so 6(8) + 4(0) + (600/14) + 30 + 7(15) = ~225.86

Is that fair? Considering the player that stood back and did nothing gets the most out of components and kills, along with the damage?

the components in this scenario are 105. That's half of your current scores F8, and overall it's even more than yours F8.

So that's why there was a +35 and a -35. If you finished <6:00 minutes, most of the time the games you play you don't get much usually because your team does so well.

Even Mcgral stated in one of his entries in a game he did well in that his teammates were too, and thus he couldn't get the kills he wanted.

That's why it's there, that's why there's a time bonus/penalty, to help players who do well in long games be balanced against those with short games and lesser scores.

[Duke Nedo]

Heh, I think my best game in the 4SP was 2 seconds too long, and totally out of my control at that time because I was dead and the last guy alive on the opponents team was hiding and they won on caps... so I'm not going to say anything about the general rule, but it this particular case staying at the back farming kills with a 4SP with SRM/MLs is not a big problem. Try dealing 1200+ damage in a brawler while hiding...

[Doman Hugin]

Derek's comp' Derek's rules, after the points scoring came out I had lots of scores that failed for some reason so didn't post them, team damage being the primary one, component's and time a close second.
(had a 264 point game one time but had 24 team damage, them's the rules)

Happy to see i come out on top in your estimation, but I'll wait for Derek's calc's before I celebrate.

Typcial, you missed they only *real* original HBK listed, my HBK-4G(F)...

6(4)kills + 4(5)assists + 703/14 damage + 30(survive) + 7(10) components -2(1)TD = 192 (my second entry)

If i take into account that i did that in T3 without arti/air strike, and only 3t of ammo, being the only 4G in the fray, i am very pleased with my result.

[Ragnahawk]

Okay so you saw a king crab uac5 sitting in the back waiting for a good opportunity to strike instead of hanging it out like a blind tree and all the team just happened to die out. A DPS mech that requires continous face to face combat. (im assuming because waiting in any other mech without some spectacular firepower is going to hurt you or lose the match) That's you justification when the 4J doesnt even need face to face combat, or good aim. Just 12 uavs, narc and tag and pray to god ita forest colony or alpine peaks. Thats the way I feel about it. You can take it, ignore it or shove it in your pocket so you can consider it for your next event thing.

Man, don't be a poor sport now.

This challenge is over for two weeks and you start editing your entry today(!) and start questioning the formula today(!) and start ranting about unfair rules today(!)...


We knew the formula for at least a month before the end of the challenge, enough time to "exploit" the scoring system for a top score. Starting a rant after everything is finished is kinda lame.

So what you're saying, is that you don't like the way it has gone, even after I posted the formula a month before it even ended, and on top of this editing today, and doing all of this today...?

In short, what 627 has said.

And I'm left wondering

[Kristian Radoulov]

f8sealed, people like you are exactly the reason I am starting to hate this community. Scout Derek set up a fun contest for people to participate in, and because you might not win, you are throwing a childish fit.

Guess what, it's the journey, not the destination. 627 had the perfect match on his Orion and beat my score. Am I mad? No. Because it was a complete blast to drop in nothing but my Orions for an entire night.

I'm sure a lot of other people who aren't going to win had fun playing their originals mechs as well. And that was the whole point of this, to have fun playing mechs people have written off as dead a long time ago.
