The Energon Pub

This thread has sort of gone stale. Is there still interest in the hit list idea? I am still willing to give away another one million in energon.

(Shared this already with Windstalker, AZ and Psychout)

Points awarded ONLY for a mission win.

Two teams. Team 1 will compraise of long standing Autobots. Team 2 will be made up of "new" Autobots, aka former Maximal and Predacons.

Each team will have an even number of members(between 6 and 12).

Only missions that end in 5 or 0 count as tourney missions

Earning points:

3 points - If 2 or more team members are in a mission where the other team is not present.
2 points - If 2 or more team members are in a mission but the other team is present, the team with the most kills in the mission is awarded the points.
1 point - For any sort of tie. I.E. 2 points can not be awarded because both teams had the same amount of kills in a mission.

Post the mission's link along with how many points were awarded by it.

I only put up a hunt idea, because the cons had already started making a list of Bots to kill for money. If you want, pitch your idea in GD. I'm just looking for a game between both factions, and hopefully getting some activity in the forums.

This is quite similar to the ideas i had for the next round

, it will have to wait tho

any additions to the list? (because i'm going off the top of my head and i know i've missed some cons, especially those some of you battle that i don't due to timezones)

I wouldn't mind helping out on adding to that too, if it's for a big game between both factions! If you guys don't mind, that is. I'm still scouring for bot players who seem pretty active enough to warrant being listed.

Psychout's on vacation, and wont be back for a couple of weeks still, so I don't know how fair hunting him would be. I added a couple to the list myself.

You are correct AZ

lets try and organize an official scalp hunt.

Alright then, lets make this list

I can assure you, that they're putting together a list of the most active bots to hunt, and I think N_V will be funding that as well as the performance thing.

If you're concerned about the usual suspects winning the energon prize, we could always donate too, as part of an entry fee. Also, scaling values would offset the level gap, though not nessicarily who's more active. But that shouldn't be a penalty for a minigame anymore than it is for the main game. I find it ironic that the person who plays the game more than anyone else is concerned that people who play more will win.

But, if we could get to work with a Con for a big minigame between the two factions, we can get it newsified, and get more interest in it.

*edit* Another possible way to keep the most active from dominating the lesser active would be to have people ranked by levels. A winner for all 6 levels (0-5).

Unfortunately I am still busy as hell, but I will fund whatever you guys come up with. I can easily afford another mil prize.

I think it would be ideal to have something that spreads the wealth around a bit more, rather than something where basically the same people who won last time would win again because they are so dedicated. I kinda like the idea of a scalp hunt (although I haven't participated in one on HMW yet) and I also like N_V's idea of rewarding individual mission performance. This gives every one the chance to win some cash and the players who already have a lot of energon do not need to submit their score for cash (unless they really want to).

Those are just some of my thoughts. I will go along with the majority.

-RoS

by **Neo Crusader** » Tue Feb 02, 2010 4:27 am

Forgive the double post. Got word back from N_V

Name_Violation wrote:I thought RoS and zordon were already runin somethin for the bots.

what I'm doin technechally not a scalp hunt, I'll post the rules for ya :

Alright folks, the rules are simple, post a link to you earning 1000 xp per level in a mission with more than one opponent and I'll give you 10 times that much €, for example 4321 xp for a level 4 or lower is €43,210.

AND I WON'T STOP TILL I'VE GIVEN AWAY OVER €1,000,000!!!

but wait there's more

100% or more strafe in one volley is worth €75,000
200% or more ram in one mission is worth €50,000
50% or more repairing of allies in one mission is worth €75,000
Repair any member of Evolved Mayhem (Better Than You) and recieve €100 per % repaied
those prizes can be collected in addition to score value.

and as a special incentive to those bloddy red shirts, the level 0 cannon fodder can have €5,000 if they manage to score 500xp or more in a mission

now I've been encouraging a scalp hunt and I have no problem funding some on the con side (this million energon give away is half my money)
If you an get RoS to fund a similar adventure, be my guest. also If anyone wants to run an official scalp hunt I'm game

I've got an idea/s for a third round if anyone is interested. I will admin, free of charge if you are still busy with work RoS. I may need some help from another player tho.

i can always help out

bad luck, but least you won

Thanks for your patience. I just awarded the prize money. Zordon received 100K for administering the competition.

1st: Absolute Zero
200,000 + 100,000 = 300,000

2nd Neo Crusader (Rogue Agent)
150,000 + 100,000 = 250,000

3rd: electron
100,000 + 100,000 = 200,000

4th ralph prime
50,000 + 100,000 = 150,000

5th Dcybertron
100,000

for a total of 1,000,000!

If you guys are still interested, we can do this again. I can afford to give away another mil. Although, it does look like the game is paying out a lot more since MKALL added missions so I suspect you guys overall are doing fine on energon.
