Also missed the grand prize Posted Image but i was only able to play 25 games total and only qualified for 9.
did get some MC (55), some cbills (237,500) and set of kickers, 1 day PT, and improved coolant pod and improved UAV. not too bad and free stuff is free stuff Posted Image
did have a blast running the Victor 9K the same way i used to run my CN9AL "Turdy Pointer" (from back when a match score of 30 was the qualifier before the match score change) with Guass, twin ERLL and lrms it can play stand off, mid range, or brawler. not great at any of them but can do in a pinch.

Have to show off my new kicker LOL

Hey Bishop! Great chance to work on your newly-shrunk Thunderbolts. They might be more fun, won't know until you run 'em ;)

Greetings Challengers! I have been watching this thread and observing the impressive amount of progress that you have been making, which has inspired me to add one final challenge to the original post. I look forward to seeing at least a couple of Challengers complete this ULTIMATE CHALLENGE and it is my opinion that the rank of "ULTIMATE CHALLENGER" be added to the unit ranks for whoever completes the ULTIMATE CHALLENGE.

Also, I have been playing poorly recently and I believe that spending the weekend working on my WMC account will help improve my gameplay, so look for xXedsteeleXx in game!

Nice to have an ultimate challenge, but wow, that's a high bar. I'll be hanging up the alt mech account after I complete Bonus #2.

Yep, that's a special one, for sure.

Now we just need PGI to put up a challenge for our mechs. Been a while since we did some of those. Posted Image

I like 'em enough I'd do it anyway, but it gives me an extra reason to run my Panthers!

I figure that I can keep running my alt for funsies, and to grind modules and stuff since the intent is to do CW stuff with it. I'm not gonna hang it up.

Like the rest of this challenge, it is not for everyone. Anyone who completes the ULTIMATE CHALLENGE, will truly be elite.

New week and after a bit of negotiation we are still with House Liao but we are getting a 30% bonus rather then 20% we were getting. House Marik was willing to match but sometimes the crazy you know vers the devil you don't...

besides we don't have to pay all those transit fees

You masochist! I may yet add a "3025" challenge...and it won't be a "Sarna stock" challenge, it woukd be a stock "as it was when you bought it" challenge if I make it. Hmm, but I already made an "ULTIMATE CHALLENGE", so this might have to be the "PENULTIMATE CHALLENGE"...

What about doubling-down for a "Sight Unseen" Challenge?

Choose an Unseen mech. Run a chassis (or at least one variant?) as stock as the day you bought it. Masochistic enough?

Those XL Marauders should be hellacious enough to satisfy even the most punishing stock-mech addiction, and Bishop can run his PPC-in-the-arms Whammy with glee (if he doesn't already) :D

Any guidleines? 3025 chassis, etc?

Maybe come up with a list of the classics, random generator?
