Goes to sob in a corner Welcome to the corner No more tears! Who's to say there won't be a similar event for secondary weapons? It's better this way, as it encourages a finite player base to focus on a smaller number of weapons. If/when the challenge is rewritten for secondary weapons, the same principle applies. This challenge is clever, but I don't know that its necessary. Fate has already declared that each weapon must be named after Bojo, as in "Bojo's Mighty Nova Knives", "Bojo's Mighty Forge Gun", etc etc etc. We want to make sure all the sidearms are fun and balanced before (read future hotfix) we consider doing a sidearm event like this. If it goes well and everyone has fun, we will definitely want to do one. "As well as stupid, Rattati is incredibly slow and accident-prone, and cannot even swim"

I might actually log on and attempt a no life on one of these weekends, it's actually gotten me really interested. Taking a popular community game (naming officer weapons after players) and making it an actual event... That's great. Well done. I'd like to ask for a of clarification though - I'm pretty sure I've understood correctly but before I attempt to clear a weekend I'd like to check if I'm right. On each weekend, you have a chance to get lots of kills with one of these types of weapons. The highest score of any of these weekends is what is counted for you. The person with the highest score will have the opportunity to name that officer variant. Is that correct? Yes, you only need to max one weekend out of the four, this is designed so players have four distinct periods, not a sum of the weekends. It also means a single person might win all weapon naming rights by having incredible 12 single days, though I doubt it can be done "As well as stupid, Rattati is incredibly slow and accident-prone, and cannot even swim"


CCP Rattati C C P C C P Alliance 3224	Posted - 2014.06.27 02:00:00 - [3] - Quote More participatory prizes and not only on the weekends. I am not sure about the post weekend updates of top killers, I like the "blind gambling" that needs to happen. Did I kill enough to move on to the next weapon, or do I push extra hard next weekend. We can see if something can be done. "As well as stupid, Rattati is incredibly slow and accident-prone, and cannot even swim"


CCP Rattati C C P C C P Alliance 3274	Posted - 2014.06.28 00:29:00 - [4] - Quote Yes, only your best total counts with a single unique weapon, not the sum, even if they are both HMG's. "As well as stupid, Rattati is incredibly slow and accident-prone, and cannot even swim"

You gotta show the post weekend updates, it would pretty messed up not to show it because people want to move to the next weapon, also if you do show it people can see if their record got beat and they can try extra hard the next week. If you dont show it people will just use the same weapon every week to ensure their prize, i know i will because no one has time to keep up with more than two weapons with out knowing if their record got beat. Very good point, we will discuss it internally. "As well as stupid, Rattati is incredibly slow and accident-prone, and cannot even swim"


CCP Rattati C C P C C P Alliance 3779	Posted - 2014.07.09 22:53:00 - [6] - Quote We have decided to change nothing about the original event, no extra days, rewards and we will not report any numbers or players until we have the final results. However, if we were to do an event like this again, we will take this feedback into account. "As well as stupid, Rattati is incredibly slow and accident-prone, and cannot even swim"
