As some of you know, I created the What Mech Challenge, which has had thousands of views, many people have tried and many are still part of the challenge. The What Mech Challenge does not appeal to everyone (nor was it intended to) and will not last forever, since it is designed to end when HBS releases the BATTLETECH game, so I am now devising a newer and (I expect to be) longer lasting challenge. As with the What Mech Challenge, I want my new challenge to cost little or nothing so that every type of player can participate and this new challenge will be based on some level of randomness. If any of this sounds interesting, then please read on...

I apparently no longer have permissions to create a poll, so I will have to find another way to do this... stay tuned.


Update: To clarify a bit, this challenge will be more like a quest.

Update: Here are your poll results:

20 people voted (before I closed the poll), thanks!

What color would you prefer?:

a.Black = 10 votes = 50% Edged by!
b. Gold = 2 votes = 10%
c. Purple = 8 votes = 40%

Which weapon would you prefer?:

a. ERPPC = 11 votes = 55% Significant margin!
b. ERLL = 2 votes = 10%
c. LPL = 8 votes = 35%

Which engine type?:

a. Standard = 9 votes = 45%
b. XL = 11 votes = 55% Edged by!

Do you want to choose your own camo / colors?:

a. Yes = 17 votes = 85% OVERWHELMING MARGIN!
b. No = 3 votes = 15%

I saw this thread pop-up then disappear a few minutes ago. Had to delete it for the sake of major editing? And I'm always a sucker for a challenge, so I wait with baited breath.

I was trying to create a poll topic, but apparently no longer have permissions, so I put the original backup. I am looking into a third party option for the poll, but I would prefer not to force people to use external links.

afaik polls only work in the suggestion subforum.

Alright, as I said, I am basing this challenge on some degree of randomness, so I will create a set of multiple choice questions and people can just answer them in replies. Close to 24 hours from now, I will read the replies and painstakingly compile the results, which I will use to complete my new challenge. Once my challenge is complete, I will make a new, dedicated topic for the challenge with the full details.

Here are my questions:

What color would you prefer?:

a.Black
b. Gold
c. Purple

Which weapon would you prefer?:

a. ERPPC
b. ERLL
c. LPL

Which engine type?:

a. Standard
b. XL

Do you want to choose your own camo / colors?:

a. Yes
b. No


Ok, that is it, answer how you like and then check back tomorrow night!

Ok, thanks, it has been a while since I made a poll and I used to be able to make them in general.

Sorry, had to edit a few times, I am tired, try again.

The questions are not the challenge, I am using the answers to these questions to make a challenge.

I was expecting more replies, all though the replies that I have gotten so far will definitely make things interesting. Well, there are still a few hours before I compile the data and begin crafting the actual "Challenge", maybe the final product will attract more attention.

wait longer, you're in no rush i presume. I did not enter your other chalenge but still, to repy to your first post. "longer challenge" i dont think longer is a good thing, i think they lose their meaning overtime.
