Eko Sol Strange Playings 269	Posted - 2014.05.13 07:48:00 - [1] - Quote I have done this competition before and it was fun. I want one that lasts a bit longer with a bigger reward. Review the rules closely and read the end of the thread so you know you have to post BEFORE downtime. You can see the last one here: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=161641 You can see my most recent one which I don't expect a single participant. Because of this I'm cancelling it in favor of continuing the same style I've done in the past. That one can be found here: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2156568#post2156568 _______________________________ Who ever is the last to post before downtime on may 17th 11 UTC gets 50 million isk just after downtime ends. This means it must say 1059 and not 11. I would read the last one of this to understand how the winner actually did this successfully. I chose a late day because of my work schedule and life ish I have to take care of. There are rules 1) Must not post anything negative about Dust or Legion BUT it can be cynical. Hate or negative statements or comments will not count and will automatically DQ you. 2) I will measure the time accordingly so the last actual post right before downtime will get the award 3) I will message you in game before sending you the money and you must reply within 24 hours or it goes to the next to last one. I don't want to just hand it out to some troll who posted and jetted so no one would get it. 4) I will add 2 mil ISK for every CCP post in the thread 5) You must post a productive response of some sort. It can be your favorite restaurant, anime, rant about your wife or husband, a new co-op game, about dust, or anything for that matter. I'm looking for good wings places in Missouri so if you know any let me know. An example is ""nice contest, I like Snickers...a lot" 6) If the times are the same (i.e. five posts at 1059) then I will give half to the last post before down time (i.e. the most recent post at 1059) and split the rest with anyone else with the exact same time stamp. 7) If there are over 200 posts that are legit within the rules then the 2nd to last post before downtime will get a $20 PSN card. I will post in an edit for any rule breaking posts and they will not count toward the 200. 8) I reserve the right to retract the $20 PSN code if CCP says that it is not allowed for any reason. 9) If CCP locks the thread it will automatically DQ the thread and will re-run the competition within whatever rules CCP allows. 10) Any post starting at or after 11 UTC May 17th loses. 11) If the thread falls more than 3 pages back (i.e. on page 3 or later) in the forum then the competition is over and I will never do this EVER again. Not a scam. Just really want to see who might actually get last post. EDIT: Obviously any post I put in doesn't count towards a win.

So Eko Sol, looking by the previous competition, I saw that you read manga and/or watch anime. I am a big otaku myself, so I just want to know what are you reading/watching now!! Do you read any light novels? I haven't watched anime in a minute but I read: Naruto Bleach Magi Feng Shen Attack on Titan Nobleese Vanguard Saga Fairy Tale Disciple Kenichi Ability And my all time favorite: Breaker: New Waves I read more but not as seriously as those. I finished at least 20 other manas/manwha PSN is "Ekopalm" I play D3, Child of Light, and solo games Also, Proto Trolling until I'm broke...

As a Missouri boy, and a fan of wings (as well as some amazing BBQ if you know where to look) I could most certainly help you out there. PS If you're going through the STL and don't stop at Pappy's and grab some ribs, you are doing a disservice to yourself. Mostly STL and surrounding. Maybe 20 mile radius tops.

Dont screw us over, CCP. I don't care too much about Legion at the moment. If it comes out, i'll wait a few weeks to months to see what people say and then try it. Dust introduced me into the whole concept of getting on forums about games I want to try. I'm going to be practicing this far more often. On another note. Anyone else getting sick of bugs. I had two RE's on a Maddy and I put the third one on. It was not even close to the red line and the third RE I put on just disappeared right before my eyes.

I like the progression. The 1st season is the best season. The 2nd one is not really necessary unless you are very into the romance aspect of the first one. I liked the mystery of the first one. The 2nd one doesn't really have any mystery in it. PSN is "Ekopalm" I play D3, Child of Light, and solo games Also, Proto Trolling until I'm broke...

So I tried this b/c you can de-cloak for the melee and cloak back up pretty damn fast and it is pretty fun. Ran 3x Myfo, 2x Complex KinKat, 1x Complex Damp. SMG, Flaylock, Core nade, Cloak, Re's. All on min scout. Although fun, it's equally annoying when you die 4x trying to get a single kill. PSN is "Ekopalm" I play D3, Child of Light, and solo games Also, Proto Trolling until I'm broke...

Was it you that emailed me in game for my final nade throw on your tank? I'm at work so I can't check my game msg. If it was, I want to re-iterate that I treat all red vehicles the same AND I got that other tank completely solo and one LAV which was pretty funny b/c he got out and looked the opposite direction and I got my two re's on his LAV. Threw a nade when he got back in, blew the RE's and he was done. Ironically, that Maddy (it might have been yours) backed up after I got to the supply depot right after taking out that LAV and came back to half beaten maddy and threw my nade when I saw it was low on health. People underestimate proto AV nades against armor. The other one was the SICA...those are relatively easy b/c it's easier to accurately place the RE on the weak spot. Two Re's and 1 nade finished that one. 7k EHP damage was enough somehow. PSN is "Ekopalm" I play D3, Child of Light, and solo games Also, Proto Trolling until I'm broke...
Eko Sol Strange Playings 289	Posted - 2014.05.17 00:59:00 - [14] - Quote I wonder how many people didn't read the rule stating if this thread got 200 legit posts the 2nd place person got a 20 buck psn card?

Someone gave me a 5 sentence paragraph in an in game message on a wings place in STL and a whole event. I am not sure that person even posted here. I don't know. Maybe I should cancel and make 250 million isk and 100 dollar PSN code. Maybe then....nahhhh. I don't see that being more attractive to people...

I dont get to play much to make isk. I'll tell you the 3 fits you need in ambush: MLT Med Gal 3 MLT Armor Plates Uplink (I use Adv) CR, Flaylock, and Locus nades MLT Min Heavy MLT light Damage Mod MLT Kinkat or MLT armor rep CR, Flaylock, Nades MLT Cal Heavy MLT Heavy damage mod MLT Armor Rep HMG, Flaylock Use those three fits only on ambush and you'll be fine and save up mad $$$. You can obviously change out the light weapon. The gal med suit gives built in 2HP/s armor reps. You can do the light suit as well which actually has an extra hs that the med doesn't and greater reps and is faster BUT less total HP (about 100 total less if you have core skills maxed). Anyway, the winner is: Hi-only-me-again, per rules you get 25 mil isk. Runner ups will split 25 mil and get 3.125 mil a piece: Jadek Menaheim Leanna Boghin Ceadda Sai bully mong D34NOS MAZDA nicholas73 Denchlad 7 Jadek Menaheim PSN is "Ekopalm" I play D3, Child of Light, and solo games Also, Proto Trolling until I'm broke...

Sigh, technically speaking I didn't make a rule about that SOOOOOOO, here is your 3.2 mil sir. So everyone should have their isk. Jadek, You should see both deposits. I wonder if I should keep doing this competition or not? CCP never participated which would have been an extra 2mil ISK per post on their part. Why didn't they troll this one a bit to hook you guys up? I wonder. And I didn't hit 200 posts which would have been cool to give the 2nd place person a $20 psn card. I wonder if there was a half DoS attack at 1059 eve time given the number of people attempting to post at that exact minute? lol PSN is "Ekopalm" I play D3, Child of Light, and solo games Also, Proto Trolling until I'm broke...

Players posting before a given daily time, for instance 10:59, would earn a daily point. The player with the most daily points at the end of the 2 weeks would earn the prize. I would suggest making some variable times in order to help include players in different time zones. If you would like, I could help run data collection on this. lol, great suggestions. But I didn't really need help with anything here. I don't truly care if CCP joins in or not tbh. I just think they troll enough other threads why wouldn't they have tried to help out people here. It just doesn't make sense to me. Anyway, i'll come up with something. Have about 300 mil more to go in isk before my corpmate and I are broke.
