My time in South Korea is going incredibly well, however, as with any experience of immersing oneself in a culture there are going to be things that come up which are contrary to your normal routines and comforts. Little culture shocks. Toilets and bathrooms can be one of those things for many foreign travelers. For instance, if you come to Seoul you may see trash bins next to the toilets. These are there for you to place your used toilet paper into as the toilets and plumbing are often not equiped to handle the load of thicker waste and may back up if clogged.
I leiu of this experience I am writing a gameplay challenge.
Don't Throw Rubbish in the Toilet
Objective: Within a random skirmish or domination based match find a hazzard based socket that allows you to jump in for a falling death suicide. Toss your dropsuit into the hole, rather than send it to swirling "toilet" of a combat zone.
"Properly" dispose of as many dropsuits as you can in a single match.
Note: Only Prototype teir (includes prototype pre-fitted suits) count
Reward: 4 Tickets per Prototype suit disposed of in the proper receptical.
Bonus Reward: The submission with highest disposal count receives an additional 40 tickets
Claim: Valid Claims only by uninterrupted video.

Wait, I have a trash bin in my bathroom, too.
I'm not even Korean.
Hey wait, what if I show you a video of that instead? Can I get since tickets for that, too? Lulz |

Yes, it's only the number of suits you can destroy in a single match. I will sweeten the deal by boosting the best in show prize to 200 tickets. How does that sound?

Or You can sell those wsuits and not waste tyem on these type of challanges, just save them. You get a guaranteed 22,800,000 off of 400 proto suits Also I have over 4000 pre fit proto suits im selling at 150k per It equals exactly 600m isk...
But I don't really care about the ISK.
Ain't a big deal.
Also, if I burn 40 suits, that's a potential 5-600M in assets there. So there's arguments either way.
But considering that I couldn't burn 400 suits even if I wanted to...
This challenge could be unequivocally won by a PC player :P

I should probably stipulate that this challenge can only be played in public contract matches, not PC.
That means the video submission must also include a capture of the team roster.

Im sure some will do it just to clear out inventory before 1.8. Maybe not.......

With this challenge all I need to see is that you spawn in with a protosuit (which is easily identifiable from a 3rd person perspective) and proceed to suicide yourself in a pit or other map hazzard zone.

Yeah...the smell can kind of carry. It either that, a flooded butcher shop, or a major investment in more durable city utilities.
Edit: In Korea at least, you'll see roll of toilet paper on the resturant tables. The tissue paper is used a napkins here. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, just different than what I'm used to seeing.

Awesome! If you can trust your corp mates there are other challenges that you may be able to breeze through with clever teamwork and some preparation. Such as this one.
***[Challenge 8] A Partnership in Money Laundering***
or this one,
***[Now Guilt Free!!!] Uber Medic Challenge: Gotta catch em' all***
The idea is to begin to pit the manpower of one corporation against another.

I know this isn't EVE. I am not stating that AV/vehicles are balanced. I understand there is a problem with AV. I understand that you think CCP doesn't listen or know how to balance things. I understand that you may believe that another patch may not come for a year. I know that the game has problems. I am not trying to say anything about balance, timely releases, quality of released content, competence of CCP or players or anything other than the following:

I must to be able to identify that you are spawning in with a valid prototype fit.
-This can either be shown by naming and favoriting a fit that is visibly proto class.
-Seeing the colors of the suit also helps when in match.
Include a photo of the teams at the beginning of the match and at the end of match screens.
-Include your end score here as well.
Make an effort to record all of your suicides.
-This means that if a device stops less the 3/4ths of the way through the match I will not validate the footage. For this reason, you may want to enlist the help of someone with a capture card.

That'll be 220 tickets well earned for proper disposal. I'm eager to see the forums' reaction to this one.

I actually play DUST on a monitor, so a PVR isn't an option for me - I just potato'd it. Decent resolution and all, and I am pretty sure I waited long enough to focus on the important things (i.e. kill boards and fitting screens)
EDIT: incidentally, despite my massive suicide count, my team won anyway.

I crunched some initial payout numbers for the film assistance initiative program. These ticket values are based on the ticket value of the challenge the player you are filming is working to attain.
*Beyond 0 tickets = 50% of challenge payout
At or beyond 21 tickets = 35% - -
At or beyond 101 tickets =15% - -
At or beyond 301 tickets =10% - -
Say if Jerrmy12 beat your (Lorhak) figure by 1 suit while filming him, you'd gain 34 tickets (33.6 rounded up) for filming the challenge, plus one film token applied to your character.

It is seventeen minutes of me jumping into a pit, after all. Looking forward to that video.
Sorry, had to sleep, then had to work :)
Will have it up in a few hours.

You may want to edit the amount of this challenge or the others. This one is pretty much a "win this, win the lottery." It devalues the other challenges greatly. I mean, even the truly insane ones like biomassing yourself won't stack up to killing 60+ prototype suits. That's 440 tickets, assuming winning Best in Show.
Eager to see the 55 suit burned. Could you also give a video of some of the more fanciful hate mail you got?

I may have inadvertently cleansed my mailbox afterwards 
Suffice to say it was there and it was angry. Well, I assume it was.
I did it on the Asian server, after all :)

While this is a valid concern due to the high amount of tickets offered, it does not break the lottery. The high value encourages more entries with more opprotunity for wider destructive potential. I would advise practice first with militia suits, however, if you knew you had the ability to ruin 60 suits it would cost a player 3,497,400 million ISK to purchase 60 prototype suits (57,690 ISK per unit) and 60 militia grade weapons to validate each suit. It's a complex game of measuring the various risk to reward quotients available to you in a given time period.
440 tickets isn't particularly big in the grand scheme of this design, if people are willing to take it there that is.
Additionally, the Biomass Yourself Challenge may far larger than you imagine. Here is a payout chart for that challenge. Each tier corresponds to 3 levels respectively. As you can see, levels build on an exponential scale between tiers. These tickets become insanely high as you move into levels beyond 30, these characters are far more valuable to the players that have built them through sweat, triumph and tears over the past year and a half since the relese of open beta.
Payout Scale
(1, 2, 4) [ Levels 1-3
(8, 12, 16) [ Levels 4-6
(24, 32, 40) [ Levels 7-9
(56, 72, 88) [Levels 10-12
(120, 152, 184) [ Levels 13-15
(248, 312, 376) [ Levels 16-18
(504, 632, 760) [ Levels 19-21
(1016, 1272, 1528) [ Levels 22-24
(2040, 2552, 3064) [ Levels 25-27
(4088, 5112, 6136) [ Levels 28-30
(8184, 10232, 12280) [ Levels 31-33
(16376, 20472, 24568) [ Levels 34-35
(32760, 40952, 49144) [ Levels 36-38
(65528, 81912, 98296) [ Levels 39-41
and so on.

clicky
No audio because I may have got caught up with my new Amarr Logistics and it is now 3am. When I can find a decent way of getting some audio (that YouTube won't lock my video for adding) onto my iphone I'll edit that in :)
Until then I need to hurry up and buy a computer :(
Accelerated to 2x speed.

Joseph Ridgeson, I'll introduce a stipulation that states if there is a tie in destroyed suits between 2 or more players, the winners must share the bonus reward pot.

Alright Mr. Ridgeson, you are right. I will lower the ticket payout to 2 for every additional submission to this challenge. However, the 200 ticket bonus remains and Lorhak keeps his original payout as a forerunner bonus.
I began to crunch the numbers on a high end alt spam scenario which changed my mind.

New Update:
If a player requests help on this event, you can apply with this person to be their film producer. With the successful production of content I award a film credit to the player who responded to the request. 21984 tickets are up for grabs to the player holding the most film credits

Lorhak Gannarsein has transferred rights of his tickets over to Joseph Ridgeson which means JR will receive the best in show bounty if no one contests him.
Do you think you have what it takes to destroy a mass of dropsuits in record time?
