This is the last of the Round 1 competitions & basically the same as the Ground, Air, & Sea Commander comps but with an medic twist: All of the claims have to be made with an 'Medic' alt class

Listing of qualifying Alt classes for rules lawyers:

Just like before you post 25 mission logs where one of your Bots either
- struck the killing blow ending the mission
- scored the highest score of ALL characters involved
- make at least 5 3 repairs (note this one thing is different than the other competitions in this round)

And like before all have to be within 2,500 missions of each other. (Roughly 5 days)

(for example: If your first claimed mission is #96000 then the rest of your claimed mission have to be before #98500)
UNlike before there is a +1 bonus point if you do at least a 30% 20% repair on someone and a +1 bonus point you repair another medic alt (same list as above)
Although it might be possible to do these bonuses more than once in a mission you can only claim each bonus point once per mission, thus any given mission can only be good for up to 3 points.

This will be a rolling competition so it doesn't end when one person completes it and people can enter at any time.

Simply create a post indicating you wish to compete and then update it with your mission logs as they come in. When you complete the objective write another post to get my attention for counting and as long as everything checks out you will be added to the list of Battle Medics and eligible to compete for another rank (once they're finalized) and eventually Autobot Savior.

(Please note this is just a bit of fun, the titles don't really mean a thing, just earned bragging rights or a way to show involvement with the faction as a whole)

I'm bringing back an old idea from yesteryear. Any time you earn one of these title you will also win a ribbon that can be added to your sig if you so desire (I volunteer to help you out with that if you don't have the ability to do so yourself).
This is the generic Battle Medic ribbon

But when you complete the requirements I'll make you one with your score (ie the number of missions it took you to complete everything) added on

You've missed Helpful Land Animal from your list of eligible alt categories, which has a Ram/Repair combo.

Mon Oct 22, 2018 10:07 am

Well aren't you a helpful land animal yourself!

Thanks, don't know what I missed that one (other than I wasn't properly caffeinated yet)

Mon Oct 22, 2018 11:16 am

After hearing some feedback about this I think perhaps this is harder than intended.

Let's change the "5 Repair" bit to 3 repairs & the 30% threshold for the bonus point down to 20% (remember though, you can't claim a bonus point if you don't do one of the 3 main achievements first)

Mon Oct 22, 2018 1:07 pm

Thanks for the changes, bun bun. I will now attempt this one and it will probably take close to 2k missions since I only have three repair. I will post my repair amount and times for record sake.

Sleep is overrated. Can't help you with drama (reducing it anyways, I seem to do fine increasing it).

This medic thing is kicking my aft... I thought it was gonna be easy even with my 3 medics but I may time out on my current attempt and have to try again (with more and lower level dedicated medics)

Wed Oct 24, 2018 9:33 am

A situation has arisen with this contest.

The bonuses were intended to only be counted once per mission but it's been pointed out to me that's not how it can be read. In the other contests the bonuses were limited because they dealt with the final hit but these bonuses can be done repeatedly.

I'm fine with allowing more bonus points as long as the other current players are on board (full disclosure: if we do it this way I'm more than good on points)

What say you Sumo, S.o.L., & OP?

Wed Oct 24, 2018 9:51 am

Since I doubt it would help me, I am fine on multiple bonuses but next time clarify how many bonus points per mission. I may have one additional point somewhere but doubt it.

This also brings up the frequency rate of repair firing off and if more mechs sho are injured has anything to do with it.

For my part, I was reading it as, you satisfy the requirements for the first point, then you can have up to 2 bonus points in the mission (repair a medic and high % repaired) for a maximum of three. I only have 4 left anyway, so I'll finish mine that way, but it's cool either way.

Wed Oct 24, 2018 10:06 am

Alrighty,

Considering OP has already added an 11 point claim I'll take that as a unanimous vote lol

Wed Oct 24, 2018 10:23 am

Also, TT I'm ready for my doublecheck

Wed Oct 24, 2018 11:20 am

Even with the change, I will still struggle to get mine in. May I suggest a little break between rounds.

Wed Oct 24, 2018 11:50 am

It was glorious... I got 13 points out of it (when I only needed 1 lol)

These contests are meant for people to do when they can at their own pace (well, within the mission deadline anyways)

I've been jumping in right away just to get an idea of how easy/hard they are so I know for the next level. There's no rush to burn through them all at once.

I didn't think I would have done it that fast with 3 bots honestly. The bonuses might have been too generous for high level medics. I will need those bonuses with the harder rounds.
