Million Clone Challenge
Throughout the weekend of March 14-17, should the total number of clones destroyed in New Eden reach 1 million, every shall receive 1 million skill points! The details for this event are:

When: The Million Clone Challenge runs from March 14 through 17 from downtime to downtime.
Objectives: During this period, the total number of mercenary clones destroyed by the player community will be tallied and for each milestone achieved, active player characters will be rewarded with commensurate skill points. The clone kill milestones are the following:

For 250,000 clones destroyed, all active players will receive 250,000 skill points
For 500,000 clones destroyed, all active players will receive 500,000 skill points
For 750,000 clones destroyed, all active players will receive 750,000 skill points
For 1,000,000 clones destroyed, all active players will receive 1,000,000 skill points

Additional event info

Only the total number of clones destroyed during the event will be counted, not the number of kills
Clone kills by friendly fire will not be counted
Active players characters in this case means any player characters that have logged in during event times and play at least 10 battles
Active skill boosters will grant bonus skill points earned in this event GÇô in order to receive the bonus you must:
Have a character that has an active skill booster installed on the first day of the event i.e. after downtime on March 14 in order to qualify for the bonus
The length of the booster does not affect the amount of skill point bonus applied i.e. as long as you have an active skill booster of any type installed on your character after downtime on March 14, your character will receive the full bonus from the skill booster for this event

And as for questions about what counts as a "kill", if the clone reserve number goes down, that's a clone death. So yes, killing someone without terminating the clone and then having them respawn counts but killing them and then them getting revived does not.

[quote=Ydubbs81 RND]Does clone lost in PC battles count? I'm pretty sure that they do as we made it actual clones lost in the match (which means if you only kill a single clone in a match, you only add one to the total) but I'll have to double check.

How much SP will we be getting if we use active boosters, does this mean on the 250k, 500, and 1mil marks or are they just going to be standard amounts, just as if an event was not happening, the wording that is being used has me confused. 2. Do the Milestones stack up or do they not, I want an offical word on this, because as I am reading it I can see it going both ways. Such as you get 250k, then 500k, then 750k, then 1mil, you are getting the mil just as promised either way just the overall totals are different at the end of the event. One way gives you 2.5 mil total the other just gives 1mil, both still a lot, just hoping it is 2.5mil but I want a Dev to make this clear which way it will be, I do not want a player to answer since they do not run the event. 3. If I revive someone does that keep them from being counted as a kill in total towards the goal? What is considered a "destroyed clone" I know what a terminated clone is, that's when you can't be revived anymore, so please explain what a destroyed clone is in detail. 4. How will the community be notified what the total number of kills are during the event so that we can keep track and be motivated to well...cause more mayhem? 5. If my booster runs out during the event, say a 1-3 day booster or the end of a longer booster, am I screwed out of the entire bonus? 6. This event needs to be announced over the game, will there be an actual announcement to the community in game or will this be another event that prays we get enough people by word of mouth/mail/whatever?
