Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted September 1, 2009 Root Admin Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 its just a thought, what about a closed group HC to run periodicaly and where only those with hc medals can participate. The reward will be a treasure put together by the participants themselves, one thing each. It could be integrated same as the current HC and keep all others out of it, maybe a different color/style for the heads icon. Its much work to do to make it real, and i could remove the heads ability from all rpcs for this to prevent complicated checks and unexpected situations, but what do you think? ... a level II HC maybe?

Root Admin Chewett Posted September 1, 2009 Root Admin Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Just a small problem there, I wont ever want to participate in a HC Because im the weakest ever and the whole system has screwed my char, But im an rpc who doesnt have a HC medal... So if i wanted to participate, I couldnt in either... Just a small thought to rpcs that havnt won hc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grido Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 half tempted to look through the New Idea's area, but a HC contest for past winners has been brought up before, not sure what the consensus on it was though Guybrush Threepwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liberty4life Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 i vote for it it should be only for mp5, becoz there are very few players that stay at lower levels with heads medal also wots with players that got placed in old version of hc, when second and third places didnt got medals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowseeker Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Would be interesting... The thing is, theoretically there's no need to make a special HC programming, but the manual work would be..annoying. Even then, I actually am against a repeated, automatized version of it. Why? Because Heads is unfair. So pretty much saying, get rpc before you win, bad luck. Means you worked too much, were too good, so you skipped it . You won once, be it due to playing too much with heads and getting a score too high (as it happened to me), or whatever the reasons are, so be it..over and out. Not satisfied? Make an RPC with Heads Control hold one manually! I await entrants and donations and persuasive methods. There's also more like Grido etc, so..?

Liberty4life Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 yea would be interesting but low number of heads would be out, becoz of low number of players, then it would be stupid if everybody would put in put newly recruited aramor lol, and still there are ppl that wipe everything so not much point in it no? but original concept sounds good, put a bet on and await for your "cards"(in here i refer on quote that every ritual/player can be beaten by newb, but atm it isnt like that), sounds fun like poker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czez Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 I think this is a great idea. Why not let the people who have shown they enjoy it continue to participate? However, I do think participation at that level should be voluntary. Many of us who were reasonably strong at mp3 or mp4 when we won medals are not in any shape to compete again. And also, this sort of advanced contest really should only be for the enthusiastic. Make it hard for them. Don't give cheap targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparrhawk Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 I quite like the idea of a Contest for those mp5s whome have won already, It would give us something to do during the normal contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grido Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 if the prize was donated items by those participating like i think he suggested, then you'd have say the 2 weeks before the comp to donate and be accepted to compete, like signing up Guybrush Threepwood and Sparrhawk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Bell Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 wasn't torch contest brought up just so already HC winners can take part in a contest also... but if you are going through with the plan, there might be a problem for u said prizes will be creatures donated by us itself... well some people might just donate a normal creature not that worth so people who might have donated a good creature might feel bad..

Fenrir Greycloth Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 I think we should have basic creatures converted into stats. Noone will have the slots to hold ten or fifteen creatures. Convert them to a basic ammount of stats and the winner gets something worthwhile.

Burns Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 why the heck do you all want ever more prices?!? can't we just have a contest to play? i miss head-hunting for headhunting reasons, not because of the chance to get something...

Fenrir Greycloth Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Because there are those out there that need an incentive to win. I don't plan on participating as my loss count is still faaaaar ahead of my win and I still recurve stat loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowseeker Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Well, originally I intended the contest I was planning just for fun, perhaps a doc or so, but nothing serious as a reward. But..I'm not planning to do it anyways for now, since it takes some time to get everything sorted..as of now I'm thinking of..Group Matches! May never get done, but yeah, the idea: People will be grouped together in equal teams, and there will be 4 different types of players within each group: Attackers get 0 heads, but they get 5 score each time they kill another person, but if they kill a spy it's -2 The King gets 1 head, and once he is killed by an attacker the game is over...but if anyone else hits him and wins, then that team with the king getting attacked wins! Defenders get 2 heads, and basically don't get points. Spies get 3 heads and 2 score for each opponent killed. The score needed to win will be adjusted according to members participating, otherwise it's killing the king. The trouble is, can you all form groups by yourself to let's say 8 people, and compete? Those taking part each can only attack for a maximum of 2 times..and I won't allow teams with just strong people only..it has to be even to a certain degree. If the people applying can't do it by themselves, then I'll shuffle. Attacks within the team can apply and won't result in a loss of the team, so strategy is helpful as well.
