MONTHLY CHALLENGE Competition! May 2013

[sempaispellcheck]

Doom, I have a couple of question about this month's challenge:

a) Who gets the point for starting the game?
b) Who gets the point for finishing the game?
c) Why do we have to calculate the score of the player below us?

Thank you!

a)everyone who is in the game when it starts
b) everyone who is in the game when it finishes
c) that way many can play, and I don't have to verify everyone's score by myself.

I would like to, but I don't want to step on any of my fellow mods' toes. We are discussing the matter.

Do be counted, they have to be posted here.

Any game can count, as long as it meets the requirements.

[sempaispellcheck]

Won Game 12432602 with Awoodness - that's 3 points!
Have been eliminated in Game 12401357, but should still get 2 points for it once it finishes, right?

[DoomYoshi]

Correct.

[IcePack]

I would participate, but no way im not going to keep track of all the points. GL w your project tho, i was excited when it was proposed

[nicestash]

I'm in/trying to start the following games
Game 12432599- won +3 points
Game 12432607-finished +2 points
Game 12460354
Game 12460355
Game 12460356
Game 12432612

As long as all of those games finish, I'll meet the quota (even if I get swept).

Just click the player's name and that will bring you to that person's list of games. You just verify that the player has the amount of points they claim.

Congratulations to all those who completed the contest. I am going to assume that nobody is lying, and I am going to publish the list of challengers in the newsletter.
You all get these trophies:

An extra congratulations to smegal69, simmons and nicestash, who won more games than they lost! Considering how tough the settings were, that is truly a spectacular feat.

---------------------------

Since the poll winner for April was Totally Random, April's challenge is:

Panda Express

Rail Asia, no special rules required, all are welcome except:
Must be 5-Player Terminator and No Spoils.
No 20 or 30-Round Limit allowed.

The scoring system is as follows:
1 point for every game that starts, 1 for every game that finishes.
1 point for every kill.
18 points are required for the challenge to be completed.

This is a much easier challenge than last time so hopefully we get more participants. Later tonight, I will generate the poll options for April. Remember, for games to count, they can't start for 5 more hours, but you can create the games now if you want.

When you say no 30-Round Limit. Does that mean, just 30, or 30 AND 20.

The latter. I totally forgot 20 existed.

[nicestash]

Simmons passes. Btw, the link on simmons name went to page 2, not page 3 where his games are.

[DoomYoshi]

Ok. At least you found it. For future reference, we will just assume that the player has checked what they are supposed to, and only report when they don't. It will save everyone time.

[nicestash]

I doubt many people will remember to check-I only remembered because I happened across this thread. In the future, maybe pm everyone?

[DoomYoshi]

Ok, for next month I will pm people.

Jonty has a bunch of freestyle games started, I started a trench/manual game.

[DoomYoshi]

Er, I didn't realize when making this challenge's name that panda express is a fast food "Chinese" food company that serves American food.

Sorry about that. I promise the award will not be a Panda Express coupon.
