Heads Contest Bugs

[Fyrd Argentus]

Others are encouraged to post issues here.

What I observe:
- Heads held are being reduced 50% every cycle.
- Some people playing are getting no score, and are not on the scoreboard. (Of course I'm MP6 but other MP5).
- Many names on the scoreboard are ancient, not playing, not online, even crossed out.
- This was announced as MP5 only but MP4 scores are shown too.

- Chewett is working on the early start of stage 2 already.

Bounties CAN be claimed during this period.

Just a display issue, ignore it.

Display ignore, scoreboard has not been updated.

Some people were marked as previous winners and weren't getting score. That should be fixed.

If you are offline that might occur.

This is happening to everybody online.  (Not entirely sure what cycle length is.)

I'm not seeing this, the last cycle everyone online gained heads. Even the dead!

While I didn’t sign up for this, I’m also getting heads from the contest. That may be normal, if the mechanics of the regular Head Contest are being used for this event.

 

What doesn’t seem normal is that my heads increase while in a sanctuary (even though only a little – one head per cycle as far as I can tell so far). If memory serves, they should decrease instead.

Also, they don’t decrease when offline; they don’t increase either though.

At least, my score remains at zero.

I was not asked to only make it work for specific people so that’s expected.

That does seem odd, I will check the increase.

The scoring probably won’t give you score however in those scenes and will diminish your heads at a similar rate at you gain them

My score does stay the same while in a sanctuary.
