This is the thread where you may tell your story and experience after taking part in Merry Mayhem Event.
Here is mine:
After
MA announced that event I was quite excited and thought "how could I win that event?". Well I knew I had no chance cause I can't play 24/7 and I don't have friends to share my account. So I was happy when
MA announced the rules some hours before event start where you may play 6 hours only during a 24 hours period. Before the event started I got ready with ammo and went south of Ithaca to be next to the mobs when I login again.
Day 1:
I logged in and stood in the middle of some dozen Exas. I saw only red points on my radar and was fapping like hell. No chance, after some seconds an Alpha killed me with crit hit. I just thought: "Great start
"
After half an hour of hunting (60 Atrox killed) I logged off for a rest and to review my strategy. I thought how about hunting Exas whithout looting them to save time. But I was not sure if it would count points so I wrote a support case to
MA to ask if it counts. So I decided to hunt Exas with my MKIV and I killed them in 1-2 shots and looted them also (as long as I didn't get an answer from
MA). Loot was kinda bad and I had no global on them.
On my hunt on a quite crowded area with Exas, two green points appears on my radar suddenly. They came closer and closer and I saw they didn't wear any armor nor were shooting at Exas. These 2 guys crossed my way and all the Exas were following them. I just thought WTF
and decided to follow them. So after some seconds following them I saw another guy shooting at that Exas and I recognized that the others were just farmers bringing the mobs to the hunter
.
After 6 hours with several breaks I killed about 1600 Exas and 60 Atrox (so 1780 points).
Day 2:
I decided to hunt Atrox again as long as I don't recieve an answer from
MA. To kill and loot Exas took to much time and the spawn was also not what I expected.
I got some globals on Atrox and it worked better than the first day
. But I had a huge decay on my armor because I had mostly several mobs on me.
I finnished the day with killing about 780 Atrox (2340 points).
Well I knew my chances to win one of the prizes are approximating 0% but I hoped that maybe some of the players will hunt some seconds more than 6 hours and being disqualified. I decided to keep up the event especially because I saw some ATH on Atrox Young & Mature so that would be a nice christmas present also.
Because on 24th I wouldn't have much time to hunt I wanted to do some hours for period #3 on 23rd. So at 18h local time I logged in and start to hunt again. After 6-7 minutes I realized that
MA time was 17h
and logged off imediately. I was still in period #2 and I started to count my session time. In period #2 I made 5 breaks and I always wrote down session time -1 minute. So I had about 5 minutes tolerance but not 6 or 7.
Well that's it, probably I will be disqualified so I'm out 
After all I'm ok because it was quite hard to hunt for 6 hours as hell (can't imagine how it would be without 6 hour rule) and now the pressure is gone
. I'm glad I may mine, craft, chat, TP run with disciples and hunt as I'm usually doing and I will also save ped because I lost 1-2k on that event.
I'm happy that I will spend new years eve together with my GF and nephews
without a stringent necessity to play the event on 31st-1st to have a nominal chance to win.
I'm looking forward to play CES Events on January 8, where I registered for 3 out of 4 events. Chance to win there is much higher and prizes are great also
.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
