Variety Bonus

Jimmy B · 06-28-2008, 17:36

Get as many different-mob globals as you can within the space of 24hrs.

ENTRY FEE

None.

RULES

(i) Screens must be provided, with timestamp and global message.
(ii) All globals in an entry must occur with 24hours of the first global
(iii) Multiple entries are allowed
(iv) A global may only be used once (ie. the same global can't be used at the end of one run and the start of another)
(v) Total loot acts as a tiebreaker (only 1 screen per mob). Earliest post acts as a second tiebreaker if necessary.
(vi) No team globals, and only hunting globals.
(vii) Globals must be posted within 48hrs of last global
(viii) Screens missing timestamps may allowed to be verified with Tracker on my judgement.

DURATION

I figure this is just a nice distraction people may give a go every now and then when they're in the mood. So it'll run for about 3 months, from now until the end of September.

PRIZES

1st: 27500 EFD + 100 PED
2nd: 17000 EFD + 50 PED
3rd: 11000 EFD
4th: 7500 EFD
5th: 5000 EFD
6th: 2500 EFD
7th: 1000 EFD
8th: 500 EFD
9th: 250 EFD
10th: 100 EFD
11th: 10 EFD
12: 1 EFD

First person to post a given number of globals wins the amount of globals multiplied by 100 EFD (ie. first to post 6 globals in a 24hr spell wins 600 EFD).

If anyone manages 8+ globals in 24hrs on different mobs that all start with the same letter, win 10000 EFD!

Furthermore, there will be a draw using the Euromillions system for a further prize. Each entrant will go into the draw with a weighting equal to the number of globals in his/her personal best attempt. The fund will be created out of a proportion of any event prizes I win up until the end. Current fund: 10000 EFD and 150 PED.

I hunted almost all day, some really bad loot so didn't expect to make the target of double figures when I finally gave up and went to bed. Happily I woke up earlier than planned so in the end had about five hours to get five more globals. Reckoned I had a chance...

6. Hogglo Young, 280 PED, 28/06/08 06:53:01

Took and hour and a half to get, which is pretty painful when you're hunting hogglo with Ghost+5B and P5a

But a nice global in the end.

7. Atrox Guardian, 246 PED, 28/06/08 07:32:44

Finally a faster one!

8. Scipulor Old, 267 PED, 28/06/08 08:53:56

Three nice loots in a row, but the scips kept critting me dead so it took a bit too long. A little over an hour left to get 2 more globals.

9. Itumatrox Provider, 50 PED, 09:15:24

A nice quick one leaves me with an hour to get to double figures. Figured Nea's Ambus should be a fairly safe bet.

10. Ambulimax Young, 55 PED, 09:31:39

Hurrah! Nice streak at the end! Spent the remaining 45min at big bots but they didn't drop.

Overall, some pretty bad loot on the first half really slowed me down, and I only used P5a as my main weapon so this should be quite beatable. Not sure I had my tactics right either, the high damage mobs will take longer than the low damage, high regen mobs in general I think.

But a respectable pace setter I hope.

Rayne Jade · 06-28-2008, 17:57

Very nice and original, Jimmy!! Sad to say I am so wrapped un that damn Atrax Beach event all I could hope to post is Atrax or Allophyl

I am curious to the see the results.

Oleg · 06-28-2008, 18:03

Sounds fun

I don't think I'd do very well but I might give it a shot!

Well part of it is about setting a personal record you can beat later of course. But fire a H400/P5a all day and you'll get quite a few for sure

Jimmy B · 06-28-2008, 21:47

Added bonus fund, following a rather easy win due to low entries in Oleg's molisk event, I figured I'd put some of it back into the pot so to speak.

Unified · 06-28-2008, 22:04

I was thinking of doing the exact same thing just the other day - except as many different mobs with the same initial letter

Hehe nice idea

With A, C, M or T it is possible to do over 10 mobs! Instant spot prize of 10k EFD if anyone manages to do 8 in 24hours all starting with the same letter.
