Mr. Ridgeson, came up with a particularly ingenious challenge that I wished to feature on its own merit. Depending on whether you're a betting merc, the trade off in SP may be worth these prizes.

CURRENT ISK POT : 50,000,000.00 Million ISK [Photo 2014.02.13]
32,000ct Core 'Vapor' Locus Grenades : Estimated Value 448 Million - 14,000ISK per unit* [Photo 1] + [Photo 2]
1 Active 30-Day Booster : Estimated Value 32 Million
4 Pyrus Suit Series of Choice - [Photo] 4 x (40ct proto, adv, std) = ~28 Million to ~20 Million
Basic Unit Values* Commando 125,000ISK, Proto 75,000ISK, Adv 30,000ISK, Std 20,000ISK
200ct "Al-102" Madrugar : Estimated Value 25 Million ISK; 125,000ISK Per Unit* [Photo]

[R][Joseph Ridgeson][02.13 18:25]
Challenge: Bleeding SP
Target: Your SP
Role: Pure tears
Reward: 1 ticket per 50,000 SP wasted
Objective: Level a completely worthless skill. Dropsuit Upgrades 5, Dropsuit Command 4-5, HAV 2-5, Dropship Operation 4-5, LAV 2-5. any skill that does absolutely nothing and leveling it to a certain level is NOT a prerequisite for a module, vehicle, weapon, or turret of any kind.
How to claim: A picture taken with the current skill level which also contains Lifetime Skill Points, Unallocated Skill Points, ISK, and AUR and then a second picture containing the same as above but with the useless Skill at higher level.
Getting HAV 2-5 is 1,218,800 SP, amounting to 24 tickets.
Caveat!!!: If CCP announces an SP refund of any kind, this challenge stops immediately. Tickets claimed will be honored if they are sent before the refund announcement.

Interesting. Surely none of these skills would truly be wasted, it's just you would have to wait a long time before CCP decides to make use of them.
There's a few skills out there that I may see worth investing in early even if content doesn't come out for it for over a year or more.
Anything planned to avoid people making alts for tickets?

Good point. I would initially say the character must have accrued a minimum of 1 million SP. Do you think it should be higher?

Personally I would say 5 million but it's your lotto.

After crunching the numbers I would say you're right. It takes about 2 and half months to gain 2.3 million SP on a completely passive unused alt.
Yes, bumping the skill requirement to 5 million for a valid character submission.

Before you ask, yes I do grow multiple characters. The PS3 will allow you to create up to 64 accounts.
You never know the day when some new player wants to purchase an account like they do in EVE online with plex.

Of course that is completely against both Sony's TOS and CCP's TOS

"You may establish only one (1) Account for each copy of the Software licensed. However, an Account will be permitted to have multiple characters stored within the Account. If you wish to establish another Account, you must obtain another license for the Software by downloading such license from CCP."
I'm still unsure what this really means. As for character trading, this is how it's performed in Eve through a character Bazaar.
CCP Spitfire wrote:In an effort to reduce the amount of character scams, GM workload and player frustration, the following changes are being made to the announcements concerning character sales or auctions for ISK. No other form of trade is sanctioned or supported. - The 'For Sale/Auction' post must be made by the character being offered. This is being added to prevent scams for characters that have been misrepresented, banned, non-existent, etc. An exception to this rule is if multiple characters are being offered by the same person. You are allowed to include the selling information for all characters in a single thread provided that you prove your ownership of the characters by having them confirm the sales in the thread. All other rules apply normally to the character sale.
- You must disclose whether or not the character being sold has a negative balance in its wallet and the amount.
- You must disclose if there are kill rights on the character for sale. Kill rights you possess on other characters are to be treated as assets and not included in the character listing.
- The character being sold must receive the ISK for the purchase and only ISK. Characters may not be sold in exchange for items.
- Please note that if a character has a negative ISK balance that character cannot be transferred until it has a positive amount of ISK.
- The sell post must reflect the character correctly, posting that the character you're selling has more skillpoints or ISK than it actually has is a bannable offence. Similarly, a seller must disclose whether jump clones are located in 0.0, lowsec or highsec space.
- Items cannot be listed among the character's valuable assets, only skills, implants and reputation. You are buying/selling the character ONLY and nothing else. Ships and items can be readily bought on the market for ISK.
- You may only bump threads ONCE Per day. Date is determined by the date on the forum, not the date where you live. See this guide for more information on bumping.
- The new owner of the character may NOT pass himself off as any previous owner.
- The character for sale must be from an active account, you cannot trade characters from inactive accounts.
- The character being sold must be in an NPC corporation at the time of posting, and for the entire duration of the sale/auction thread being active.
- The character being sold must be older than 14 days old to avoid accidental transfers.
- The selling of accounts is prohibited, characters may only be sold individually.
- The owner of the character being sold is responsible for the character transfer fee paid to CCP.
- Prior to leaving a corporation, the character to be sold MUST send a corp-wide EVE mail stating that they are going to be sold and will be leaving for an NPC corporation.
- When a character is sold, please modify the topic title to reflect this to help other forum patrons know what characters are still available.
- Lottery style sales are not permitted. Auctions and buyouts are the appropriate method for selling a character.
- All scams involving character transfers are prohibited.
- The ISK that a buyer sends when attempting to purchase a character is considered to belong to him until such a time as the character being purchased has been delivered to the account of his choosing. If the character sale is not completed, the ISK must be returned in full to the potential buyer.
- Whenever a character is transferred before the seller has moved the ISK received from the sale to another one of their characters, the Customer Support team will return that ISK to the rightful owner. The buyer cannot expect to receive both the character and the ISK that they paid to purchase it.
- CCP Fallout talks about the 10 hour character transfer delay.
- Down-payment plans are not supported by CCP Customer Support. As a seller, you are agreeing to a certain amount of ISK only, which is to be paid in one payment. Once again, any forms of scams regarding character sales is prohibited.
- All skill training must be paused before transferring the character.
- The location of the character must be disclosed and whether it is in high security, low security, null sec or wormhole space. You must also state if the character is in space or in a station.
- Accounts can only be involved in one character transfer at a time. If either the sending or the receiving account have an ongoing character transfer, other transfer attempts will fail.
- This forum is for buying and selling of characters, you may reply to the threads with bids or questions regarding the character/s. All other posts are off topic and will be removed. Answering posts of this nature will be counted as your daily bump.
- Accounts that have been previously banned for macro use are not eligible for character sales.
- Customer Support will not remove bounties placed on characters either as part of a sale, or after they've been transferred to a new owner.
These changes are effective immediately. Posts made after this announcement will be edited with a link to this thread or deleted without notification.

Those ticket prices are not final. This challenge is still in a 24 hour review phase. Make a reasoned argument as to why it should be higher. Standard operating practices allow for challenges to be between 1 to 20 tickets. Unless I see that there is a high degree of difficulty and openness for many players to compete in (hence I may call into review my statements on the first challenge passing the 20 ticket cap.)

While I did not write them I do approve of them. If we want to go down this road, I will contemplate accepting best in show displays for shotgun revivals in FW and Full Team Suicide Awoxing in FW.

What would you say to the idea of making this an uncapped challenge wherein' you get 2 tickets per officer weapon destroyed, except Thales which net you 4 tickets?

Do you want a video of me destroying 50ish Thales? That would be DUST514 gold right there... So many angry snipers. Would you settle for 1 ticket per Thales instead of 1.5?

Nope. I just hate snipers and want to reduce the amount of Thale's on the feild by whatever amount i can.
Like I said, I was just going to destroy the Thales' at some point anyway.

If you already have the skill that doesn't count for this challenge. You must purchase the skill as of the release of this objective.
The MCRU skill assist with fitting requirements last I checked.

Nope. I've got at least one more lottery to go after this one.
Round 3: "Year of Plenty" 12 Passive 30-Day Boosters + 1 Active 30-Day Booster + 9000 'Centrifuge' Ishukone Nanohives + ISK Pot

Where do you get these things in such large quantities?! That is an insane amount of Nanohives. Might as well be a BPO at that point, because it would take me YEARS to use all of those.
I'm going to do the math...
... O.o ...
...where did you get that much Aurum?

Ah. That cuts down the Aurum by a lot. Still a massive amount of Aurum, though.

I felt it was worth it. I wanted to support the game, and I though it would be a lovely way to troll the forums during the uproar of grenade spam. Now I want to reinvest this back in the community by encouraging people to create media content for the game that helps promote the Dust 514 brand and community.

I would be, but I am not down for skilling to proficiency 3 on snipers. Maybe I'll skill an alt to that then trade all my thales to the alt and commence the suicide.

We've got time in this lottery. There are plenty of other challenges that you can start working on right now, that don't require you to destroy equipment...just destroy relationships.

HA! Nice try. I may participate in clean-fun ones like "wasting" SP or trashes officer weapons, but wouldn't even think for a second about doing anything to betray anyone.

While you won't, I'm confident someone else will--particularly through an alt account. They may do it out of frustration, for laughs, or even an aulturistic goal of putting Dust 514 on the console map as a serious social FPS unlike any other.

Wow Jadek, take my little idea about destroying a couple officer weapons and open the flood gate with it.
Good. Death to all of the Thale's. I oh-so greatly look forward to the videos.
For the wasted SP one: I suggested having a video of before and after to have the idea that you actively did it as part of the challenge rather than on accident. Jadek can certainly change it... but I think it is a little more evil to say "a mistake isn't nearly brutal enough; we want intent." |

I think a before and after picture will suffice. Not everyone has a decent video camera or capture card. I do like the idea of adding narrative to the challenge. This can be up for debate, I can see to offer 6 bonus tickets for filming the act rather than taking stills.

D'oh! I meant having a photo! I swear, I am really stupid sometimes. Most of the time I am just dumb.
I would think that bonus for a video is fair, though a flat bonus is a little rough. It means that for 50k SP they immediately get 7 tickets which is only a little evil. Maybe double up to 6, so 50k = 2, 100k = 4, 150k = 6, 200k = 8, 250k = 10, 300k = 12, 350k = 13.

Ok, I follow. Once you reach 300K, the system tapers to constant build of 6 tickets. 400k=14 (8); 450K=15 (9); 500K=16 (10) . . . and so on.

Because this is a game, I imagine some people like to toss around the idea of danger and deception as an experience. This video is presented as a narrative tool to encourage Dust 514 players to craft various stories and personas in the community. You have the heroes who uphold honor among their fellow mercs and those that craft the story-line of a clever thief working against the odds.

Challenge: Recycling Scrap
Target: Your Officer weapons
Role: "How much is this going to cost me later?"
Objective: Commit suicide while holding an Officer weapon. Get no kills with it and do nothing other than commit suicide via jumping out of the MCC or running into a live fire zone.
