Edit: Well, well, well, congrats guys. thanks for dying so easily for me! and thanks for the extra SP and ISK!
just look at the leaderboards, more specifically, pay attention to the Corporations total Kills. if there are this many corps and that low of kills, all of which is combined for over 14 days, then i doubt we'll get 1 million in one weekend.... CCP better just give us that reward... unless they knew it was impossible.
Update: total number of kills scored yesterday was 71052. Only 928,948 more kills to go! Come on mercenaries! Do you want to live forever?
Update: We are currently at 265.885 kills as of 13th July, 00:00GMT! This is where we fight! This is where we die!
Update: 478.702 kills are on the board as of 14th of July, 00:00 GMT!
Update: 752.036 kills as of 15th of July, 00:00 GMT! Make them remember what death tastes like!
Update: As of 16th of July, 00:00 GMT 1000903 mercenary clones have gone down to feed the trees. Congratulations DUST 514 mercs!

I've just perfected a good Gunnlogi setup, and I intend to use the ******** amount of SP I am now raking in to get a Sagaris, and I will do everything within my power to murder as many players as possible in pursuit of this goal. o7 |

lets just see how the weekend turns out in terms of player counts. I wednesday night when people have to work in the morning is really the best barometer. |

This is the only time I've felt like making personal attacks on the forum.
The highest point I saw last weekend was 6000k people online. If everyone gets themself killed at least 4 times per match, then we'd only have to play 42 matches total. If you have 3 accounts that's 14 matches per account.
And that's only if you are settling for getting yourself killed just 4 times per match.
Load up bodies in tanks & get some spectacular kills & deaths out there! |

^That. I think today kind of sneaked up on a lot of people. I only saw about 500 people total online at any time I played earlier in the day. It'll definitely pick up over the next couple of days. |

Well the goal for the weekend seems to die. So if everyone reverted back to militia scouts, in the end you can make a lot of SP for just running headlong into each other. |

Sorry if your bad at math, lets do some shall we?
lets say we only ever have 1000 people on. 1000 people all dying at least 5 times a match average.
that's 5000 deaths a match. 3 matches an hour. that's 15,000 kills. So in 10 hours that's 150,000 deaths. So in 100 hours it'll be at 1,500,000 deaths
And that's a low estimate.
you do know that total about 50,000 people played the beta last weekend. That's pretty good, each player needs to get about 20 kills, how is that hard? |

Well we still have about three days to achieve our one million kill count goal. With a fourth day (today) helping to take some of that stress too. If roughly six thousand people are active daily from servers going up till they go down and each of them plays a match I'm sure we'll meet our goal. I mean even with steady numbers the average person would only need roughly just over a hundred or so kills in a four day period. Knowing how some people play their games even you can bet some people today alone made over two hundred kills easily. I'm sure of that much.
Point is though that I'm sure we're already more then a quarter towards our goal. Though it would be cool for CCP to show us what data they have on today's statistics alone. Tomorrow should be a much better day though for server numbers. One large factor you have to remember is that the actual small number of people whom come to forums or stalk the forums are much smaller in number in relation to both the larger number of people whom do not visit the forums, or have no connection to the forums at all. This accounts for the e-mail as well. Most people do not actually check their e-mail on a regular basis (you'd be surprised.) So the relative number of people whom knew the servers were going to be up are quite small in comparison. Most people on today are were probably those whom just figured to try logging onto Dust today. |

none of you are factoring in the fact that everyone is going to be trying ther hardest and you should never underestimate the will to accomplish something even if it seems impossible. dont say it cant happen because you will be proven wrong, just saying. |

This is NOT the spirit of New Eden.
This is.
CCP just anted up 1,000,000 isk & 1,000,000 SP for every one of us if we can give them the bloody weekend they're looking for. I plan on collecting. |

The only way to make this better would be if CCP gives us that one million skill points, and ISK back to those of whom participated in this four day event at release of the full game. That would really make it worth it more so then anything.
Do not misunderstand me though. I'm happy enough that CCP is so involved and is willing to give us exlcusive BPOs upon full release, and I'm happy that they would even give us a million skill points and ISK. I just think that when you realize upon release it's gone then you get a bit sad. We'll make the qouta for sure without a doubt, but it would be that much cooler to know even upon release of Dust that those of us whom participated in this event will have that one million lead at launch.

Put another way, its a total of 11112 ambush matches in which one team loses all clones and the winning team loses half of them. With around 94 hours of uptime this weekend, that's around 119 matches per hour, or somewhere between 20 and 30 matches running at a time, depending on how long each match lasts. If you assume that the average skirmish match has at least 90 kills or so as well, then we can adjust that to simply being around 20 to 30 matches running at a time on average for the whole time the server is up. |

If we were to fall short of the 1 mil, I'd be fine with just a ISK/SP bonus of whatever was made. 856724 ISK/SP for 856724 kills for example. |

He-he.. That was not the deal though. If we somehow fall short of our qouta/goal then we do not get the bonus at all.
-- Risk and Reward --
Anyway. We had four days to achieve this goal. We still have three days as of right now. Even if only six thousand people were to play the [beta] over the weekend only then each of them only would only need roughly a hundred and forty kills over a four day span. Which is not asking a lot. You also have to consider that a number of players will more then likely exceed this easily as they seem to play religiously. So in reality being able to achieve a million kills in four days is very easy. |

Actually servers should just be going up. Yesterday was a horribly off day. Again most people did not even know the servers would up yesterday. The days unto monday from here on should make up for yesterday easily, with each day getting bigger. |

My problem is such: I can't unlock a fraction my proto scout suit's full potential without that electronics upgrade skillbook. Without it, I'm stuck in a limited AV mode. Great for grinding skillpoints and ISK, but not so good for getting kills. Dropship pilots tend to bail out in time, and me taking out their rides will actually be reducing our collective kills. (As those guys will be fleeing my swarms and bailing out instead of tallying up kills.)
I can slaughter people with Proto SMGs if they fix the missing skillbook and be a big help in this endeavor or I can continue to drag the total killcounts slightly down in my matches...
...or I could sacrifice my KDR atop the altar of Mars. (But who wants to do that?) |
