Thank you! Hope you enjoyed my story. I had hoped to win the BPO set, but every ISK counts. Thanks so much for doing this!

These are divided into two areas; what I thought about the fit and how you sold it. It was possible to earn 5 points in each of those two categories: 1=meh 2=standard 3=good 4=excellent 5=perfect I also took the liberty to award one extra point for style. Either your fit or your post was inspirational, hilarious or just had something to it, you know? Up there you can see that nobody got more than 10 points. That basically means I didn't come across a "perfect" fitting. But that's the point, isn't it? Always in search for that little bit extra :) There were two people getting 10 points and nine who got 9 points. After I can see straight again I will harshly judge who will get the top 3 prices. But what do I mean by "top 3 prices"? Aren't there only 3 prices in total? Now that's the interesting part: I must have somehow forgotten to mention that each and everyone of you will be rewarded The three prices I announced in my Opening Post to this thread are only half the deal. On top of that everyone of you will get the points he made in DUST ISK x 1.000.000 487 points were awarded in total. Thanks again for a really awesome event, this really helps people get involved not only in their own character, but with sharing things like that on the forum. The prizes were awesome, I for one will be holding that 8 million until 1.7 and then buying as many fully fit Incubi with it as I can, once I figure out how I want to fit the new one (blasters, whoa..).
Congrats to everyone, especially you lucky top 3

The OP will be reordering the list, then going through and picking who gets what. He's given points to everyone already, though.

That's some showmanship, sir. I'm honored to be rated a 7. Though I'm curious how my score broke down between the two categories.

Punctuate my friend, punctuate like there's no tomorrow

"What the heck man? I went all out. And what do you mean by punctuate like there's no tomorrow? If you actually read it instead of looking at it once and being lazy, you'd see that I punctuate better than you probably do."
What he meant by GÇ£punctuate like there is no tomorrow, is dramatic punctuation. That is you have to tell a story, produce a narrative. You have to think of engaging your audience rather then hitting them with a wall of text.
You have to keep in mind that human beings intuitively search for the most efficient manner to all things they do. Hell we are anatomically build for biomechanical efficiency. Cognitively we are no different, just look at the continuous and abject use of stereotypes.
IT was a piece of constructive criticism, relax an stake it for what it is. It is a comment on your style and how you formatted it. Nothing more. |

wow, that's a hell of a lot of isk, 737k isk!!! How the hell do you have that much anyway? And you can't have much left after this
You sir are a very generous man indeed and I thank you for doing this, both for my 8 million and the ability to find out what some of the 'top'players use (because they can be a bit tight arsed about it sometimes IMO)
If only there were more of these threads on the forums (legitamate of course)
I'm suprised I even got in the top 20, I think I wrote it while cleaning my teeth ;) Anyway, enough rambling, thank you :)
Donate isk to the guy above ^

Well, an 11 would be perfect, pretty much. I'm not sure there's any one thing either of us could add.

Exactly, I just want to know what he would perceive as the "perfect" fit. And hello there fellow 10 pointer I read your fit, and It makes me jealous that I don't have gallente starter fits. But I might try to replicate that fit using the militia gallente gear in the market. It actually sounds pretty good. Normally I use a Laser rifle fit if im trying to make money. It costs 15k and is unbeatable at range. (because...... its a LR......).

I used to use the Laser Rifle a lot, too. I did well until 1.6, when the influx of Scramblers and the better hit detection made it hard to work with. I now use the TAR more, since it's more flexible. 65m range versus 65-85m range. Drop off is slow enough that I get kills out to 80m, without having to worry about the two wall drop offs on both ends of the Laser's optimal span. Amarr Sentinel with armor repairers a damage modifier and a TAR or ScrRifle and ScrPistol is a nice, durable fit with lots of recovery.

ill admit, the LR is DEFINITILY a circumstantial weapon. But that's why I got a normal assault fit too. One suit is meant for brawling close range, the other is meant for beaming long range, and use of either fit entirely depends on what map I happen to be playing on. As for corp battles, the suit I originally listed is what I almost exclusively use. Last night I was playing against Paradox one and went 28 - 7, and a few days ago we played against outer haven and I went 21 - 3. That is FANTASTIC for a corporation match, and im very pleased with how this suit performs right now. Of course, improvements can always be made, but im currently saving SP for other persuits that will hopefully lead to me unlocking a Fifth proto suit, and ultimately make me A LOT more flexible on the battlefield (think Super hacking speed right now).
