HMW's Next Bot Savior: Round 1A - Autobot Ground Commander

by Bun-Bun
This will be a multi-round contest to find the next Autobot Savior since AZ is awol & Alldarker usually cbf to even play let alone post. If they come back and the title has already been claimed well then they'll have to re-enter the process to get it back (instead of just yelling at each other like last time) Image

The first step in the process is to qualify as an Autobot Ground Commander ( name used without Jack's permission or blessing but I won't tell him if you don't )

To do that you simply have to:

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
- lead a group of lower levels to victory
    (definition: a mission where the Bots won, you survived, and there were at least 2 Bots of lower level in there with you, none of a higher level and no more than 1 other at the same level)


The tricky bit is they 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)

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 Ground Commanders 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 Ground Commander 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

I will take a stab at it even though I never thought myself as a "savior" for this game. I will change it though to Maximal Savior.
I think first mission claim would be 99256


1. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99258 Last Kill/Top Spot

2.https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99257 Top Spot

3. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99256 Top Spot

4. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99332 Top spot p/Last Kill

5. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99345 Top Spot and outnumbered but still lost. Does this still count even with loss?

6. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99346 Top Spot and outnumbered just like #5 above

7. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99343 I often win these 2 vs 1 but once again Top Spot

8. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99344 We need to make a change to the requirements or make them tougher as we go up. Top Spot

9. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99588 Last Kill

10. https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwa ... n_id=99604
Top Score, Last kill, troop lead (I think)

Sumo,

It still counts even if our side loses.

This round isn't meant to be super-hard, trust me, by the time we get to "Autobot Savior" levels things will be a lot rougher

Submitting my finished claim.

Would someone like to confirm?

*Edit

Remember: Just because someone finishes doesn't mean you can't continue and earn a Ground Commander title yourself

By my count you still have 1,000 missions to go. Unless you're just not gonna have time to play the rest of the week I think you could still make it

I am updating my logs!!

This is the generic Ground Commander 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


So on that note I'd like to present Sumo with his:

And me with mine:

I'll be doing the same with the other Competitions too

Slightly odd that TT has become the go-to certifier... but hey that's a way of being involved too so I dig it. ;)^

Pending TT's approval this lovely ribbon is all yours, Congrats!

All counts Verified. Ratified for this certification.

Bun-Bun wrote:Slightly odd that TT has become the go-to certifier... but hey that's a way of being involved too so I dig it. ;)^

Independent Adjudication. Not partaking in the course itself, means I have little to gain as far as the numbers go, so I'm impartial and curry no favoritism.
It also adds a secondary check, so if anyone does make a mistake they have a better chance of rectifying and completing in the same attempt, without having to start over.

Number 23 is technically the latest mission number. I count this at 176 missions in about 7 hours, 40 minutes :MAXIMAL:

TT, would you please verify me? :D

All points verified, and mission count confirmed at 176. Welcome Back Wingz.
