I suggest adding a rectangular sample block of the color next to the name in the drop-down menu for the color choices. Because who knows what color 'Volkonskoite' is? Coloring the text wouldn't be sufficient to convey the color, but if that's all that can be added, it's better than what is (not) there now.

Loving this event, so much win !

It might be worth including the */30 in the rewards tab. At the moment it shows how many pulls I have twice e.g. 13/13.

Again many many thanks PGI :)

Great new format, even got the GF to start playing again.
The ability to pick what you want is what convinced her.

It would be super great if there could be links to the cockpit items, especially their animations and sounds and the colours as mentioned previously by someone. I know it will be a lot of work the first time around, but once you've uploaded all those vids to youtube they can be reused for future events and would only require linking. (this might be a moot point with the new system we are getting in game)

Big thanks for a great event and working the salt mines :)

how about you start up the game and check the mechlab? ;)

Too much events for my liking to be honest, i feel like getting consumed if i want to keep up. 10 games per day.. that's devotion.

Kudos for continuing to experiment with event reward structure. I like that it's never the same (X number of) challenges.

Ah, poor pathetic Clanner. I see your space-roids have gotten to your head again. Fear not, I back down from no challenge. Although I do feel a little bad beating up on someone as feeble as yourself.

I'll meet you in the Steiner coliseum and to be fair I recommend we fight from the same weight class of mech, as the challenged I choose a heavy. I will drop against you three times, regardless of the outcome of each fight.

Tell me a date, an evening, a time and I will let you know if I can attend. I will require one thegn to be in the spectator slot to film our combat and have no problem if you bring your retainer to do the same.


Please, do not take too long in getting back to me. Just as the Norsemen of old enjoyed slaying Polar Bears for sport, I too enjoy a chance to hunt the Ghost Bear.

pls upload it to youtube afterwards.

as a swiss citizen i continue my countrys tradition of neutrality and wish good luck to both of you (even tho i have a slight bias towards IS mechs, simply because they look more edgy instead of roundish)

Is there some sort of mech or weight restriction?

I made a switch from heavies to assaults, and now despite having match scores between 143 and 300, I'm not getting any updates to my loot bag games. The last one shown is one I did with a Marauder (IS). My Stalkers aren't showing.

Working my second set of 30 (alt account). Done mostly in lights as the queue is faster, no problems, using both clan and IS lights...

Tis a max 30 loot bags for every 3 days. The strike out portion should read something like "over next 15 days."

15 days /every 3 days = 5 sets. 150 loot bags/30 loot bags/set = 5 sets = 5 tabs on the tournaments page
  • Earn up to 30 every 3 days a Day for 15 days = 150 Loot Bags!
I missed or misinterpreted the 3 day part, and was freaking out. I had 8 Redeem buttons show up then disappear last night after I had redeemed two (I had 28 completed and eligible matches at that time). I thought they would refresh this morning, along with 8 other matches I had completed. This morning I had started a post then reread the terms, then doh.. max 30 loot bags every 3 days.

I'm only at 8. But for some reason my last several games haven't shown.

For a bit over an hour, now they've shown. Prior to that they'd show within 10 minutes or less.

They refresh every hour, on the hour.
