Because of THIS and to resurrect the spirit of the Free Fract Friday I'm gonna pay back to the community with the little I can afford and gift a redeem-code for 7 days premium time to one of you.

How to win?

Post a screenshot of your highest KMDD count (Kill Most Damage Dealt) with an URBIE, RAVEN or WOLFHOUND!
Also post a screenshot of your team match score so we can see you really piloted one of the above mechs.

Timeframe: In the next 48 hours.

No fakes, no other mechs, no photoshop.



PS @PGI: Actually I wanted to gift a Locust hero but unfortunately I discovered that you can't gift anything under 15$ anymore except premium time. I must say, this sucks. Why not have more options for the less-whaley folk? Why remove heroes?

Post a screenshot of your highest KMDD count (Kill Most Damage Dealt) with an URBIE! (Yes, UrbanMech)

Great offer!

I can answer the gifting thing - for a while PGI did offer the low cost items as gifts and may Locust were given away. From what I understand because of the low value of the sale (only a few dollars) the transaction fees on the account processor were such a large percentage of the actual value it wasn't worth it to PGI to continue to sell the lowest priced items.

Yeah, I was a bit bummed they took out some of those lower priced mechs for gifting as well.

I sold credit account processing for a while and this ^ is the truth. Thats why there is usually a 5 or ten dollar minimum to use a card at stores because there is a flat rate transaction fee (like 50 cents) as well as a percentage fee on top (like 5%) American express is actually the worst offender then Discover.

Stick with Visa, its actually the most accepted card despite what people say.

Also, I wish I could bring back Free Phract Friday :(

If you need anybody to check images for photoshop, I have more experience than I ever planned with that program. Most people who are tempted to hack such a nice offer are usually too lazy to do a good job.

Thank you for being a good person and helping inject some positive into the community

36 hours and no entry yet. Hmm looks like premium time is nothing worth anymore :/

I think it's just hard to get KMDD in an Urbanmech. Especially when PGI has an event running.

I only see this post as being `13 hours old and it was posted in the early AM for US players, many of whom are probably still at work. Give it another 12 hours and it'll start happening.

OK I updated it, and put in two more mechs. Since the Raven is in the event, it should be easier. :)
