Like a ninja: "In a match at least once, TAG an Enemy while you are outside the Line Of Sight of all enemy ‘Mechs."

If you are outside LoS of all enemy mechs, how are you supposed to TAG them?

TAG REQUIRES Line of Sight!

* Requirements can only be met a single time in a single match. For example, getting 2 Solo Kills in a match will only count as 1 Point toward the Total Goal of 11 Points for the Solo Kill Challenge Goal.

Okay, THIS is not cool. This will cause the challenge to get dragged out even longer. :/ And some of us barely have the time as it is to commit to these things. :/

So shouldn't it have started by now? My client says its after 1900, my time (Central) says it's after 1800, so it should be 1700 there. Website says starts at 1700 pacific, and the splash screen said 1600 pacific.....Am I missing something?

Requires THEM to be in YOUR LoS. If you and an enemy mech were facing away from each, neither of you would have LoS to the other despite being in LoS of each other.

In these Cumulative challenges, some will be harder than others, but you can earn points in more than one challenge per match.

Keep me informed on how you are doing. Would not be against extending this one for our friends in the "upside down" land of Australia.

TAG REQUIRES Line of Sight!

You just simply need to sneak behind an enemy and TAG its *** ..öhm... I mean, rear... (So, nothing more, than usual TAG tactik..)

Okay, so the 'Like a Ninja' challenge, is you have TAG--and by definition, Line of Sight--on an enemy mech, and no enemy mech has Line of sight on you. That makes more sense. Wish the tournament page would have made that clear.

You should've named an air freshener challenge «Kerensky farted» for more subtle reference.
