Is the page not updating? It seems like it hasn't for an hour or so.

Recent events have been updating on the hour and that seems to be how this one is working.

And yet you still hide your tier rating from your posts. Does make one wonder if the troll isn't actually the tier he claims to be.

Given he has leaderboard stats in the top 5%, I'm inclined to take his word for him being Tier 1.

Certainly more than doubt from a Tier 3 that thinks running a Hellbringer with stock armor is a good idea.

there you go again letting your brain make assumptions that aren't actually proven in reality. trolls shouldn't do that.

anyone notice that the event timer for the perday challenge bit is broken? mine only works a few hours day, 'November 19th is over' has been showing for 12 hours now

Oh, there's a difference between assumptions and educated conclusions. If a player with good leaderboard stats says he is Tier 1, I'm inclined to believe them, as their performance will get them to that tier sooner than other players.

But please, continue talking down to a top 5% player, when your own performance is bottom 25% at best.


And just incase anyone doubts the Hellbringer thing:

Dee Eight, on 21 October 2016 - 04:17 AM, said:

Hellbringers are the clan replacement for warhammers. They traded some armor mass for speed and firepower. But in excess of 28 tons available is actually more than than enough to come up with some great builds.

Widowmaker1981, on 21 October 2016 - 04:38 AM, said:

28 tons??

You need to max that armour. It has 26 tons free with both arms stripped to 0. at full armour it has 23.5

Dee Eight, on 21 October 2016 - 04:56 AM, said:

Well YOU may need to the max the armor, I certainly do not.

To get 28 tons free on the Hellbringer, it will have just 272 out of 422 armor points; the armor level of a 40 or 45 ton mech.
This is a hysterically bad idea, that could only seem good when potato logic is applied.

Time and damage output doesn't, a top player, actually make. It simply proves how broken the PSR concept is when it rewards mediocure players with some rank they can point to and claim makes their opinions superior.

Except NEVER did I actually claim anything about running stock armor. You took my stating that I don't need to run MAXIMUM armor as in another thread to automatically mean I only run with stock armor. You read apple, and what you call a brain processed it into something orange. Then you regurgitated that orange into another thread as proof of something else. Here's an idea...stick to just reading what I wrote and stop try to extrapolate what I'm thinking as its just going to keep getting you into trouble.

Aww gee, yet another Dunning-Kruger excuse.

See, there is actually a very strong correlation between match score and win/loss.
This is because most players that score more damage have a much greater influence on the battle than those do not, so they win more battles than players that score lower damage.

Worth noting that your own performance statistics show the inverse is true; a player that scores low damage per battle will have low average match score and low winrate as a result.
Quite simply, you have a negative win/loss because you aren't doing enough damage.

And players that have high average match score and winrate in all weight classes, across all seasons? The stats prove them to be good players, something you are most definitely not.

Don't try to squirrel out of it.

You claimed the Hellbringer had 'in excess of 28 tons available'. That is only possible with stock armor levels.

You said something that demonstrated exactly why you have such bad performance statistics; you have an extremely poor understanding of the game.

Click the yellow/gold 'Kerensky Bowl & Linebacker Challenges' tab under the banner title here: http://mwomercs.com/tournaments

Red Zone Offense is simply score 100 match score in a single battle each day, for 12 out of the 14 days of the event.

Roughing the Passer requires destroying 150 components.

Defensive Line requires 50 'Lance in Formation' actions. To score those, your lance must all be within 140 meters of each other, and all must be engaged.

Pass Protection requires 100 'Protected Light' or 'Protected Medium'. To score those, you must be in a light or medium mech, close (probably 140 meters) to a friendly mech 2 weight classes above your own (so a heavy or assault mech if you are driving a light, assault mech if you are driving a medium), and you must be engaging the enemy at the same time as the friendly.

The Completionist requires completing the 4 previous challenges.

At the top of the Event page, over the word 'Started', you can actually click the heading "Kernesky Bowl & Linebacker Challenges". Do that, and then scroll down for details. Happy Gaming!

would you like to explain how I can fit AMS or ECM to my Linebackers as I already have Radar Dep?

Heres a hint ... only 1 of 6 variants can fit AMS.

Well the Linebackers are omni mechs and the AMS point is on a standard pack variant so you can buy as many of the LBK-B LEFT TORSO OMNIPODs as you want and fit them to all the other Linebackers you have.

Mister team killer is back at it again, once again a new account.

One can seriously wonder what sorts of mental issues one could have when having fun PKing 4-5+ members of the own team consistently for hours and hours, and once banned he proceeds to make another account.

I guess he enjoys posts like this one. It ruins the fun, doesnt matter if he's on our own team or opposing team since the matches like that aren't fun.

No idea who you mean, perhaps you should report and not post in random thread?

Well PGI is a canadian company and Canada already had thanksgiving. You cannot plan events around holidays because its almost always a holiday for something somewhere.

But the fix for this is so simple. Just require ten days play out of the fourteen. That leaves four days for most people to leave and then come back to the game.

Sometimes. Sometimes its merely a case of being lucky in that they're on teams where others can carry them. You DO realize its a team game yes ? And except for sync droppers and group play, you cannot expect the matchmaker will actually put 12 good players together everytime. In every match, there's going to be a winning team and a losing team. Note again the word TEAM there. Perhaps you should learn the meaning of it.

Well you can stick to that theory if it helps you sleep at night. You'll still be wrong in the morning though.

Which is your opinion, and again, you are wrong.

Yes, I stated that because its a fact. 28.5 tons is in fact, in excess of 28 tons of available podspace. I also said that there are plenty of good builds possible within that available weight. You however couldn't apparently process that statement beyond meaning that the only good builds involve using all 28+ tons exclusively for weapons. That in another post in the same thread also said I don't need to run max armor, still wasn't enough illumination for your feeble comprehension skills to formulate the meaning of my statements. So I'll spell it out for you since you cannot fathom the obvious answer yourself. I use those 28.5 tons to arrive at my own working balanced combinations of weapons, ammo, sensors, heat sinks, and armor.

Really? I think I actually said something that demonstrated I have a extremely great understanding of the game. It also clearly demonstrated you have an extremely feeble grasp of intuitive thinking, reading comprehension, and knowing when you're outmatched in terms of wits.
