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.

Yikes, this is falling to the bottom of callouts. Anyways, some of us have been pretty loyally following these challenges, and I thank everyone for it.

Could you post what you think the best/worst parts of the challenges are?

Best: The games fill fast. Even though we don't have official support, I think every game has filled. Only a small fraction of these are regular players, which is interesting, as it means there is a variety of people who wanted these settings and were waiting for the games.

Worst: Playing 10 games of the same time kind of sucks. It would be nicer if there was more variety in the challenges.

[jonty125]

Best: I quite like playing lots of games simultaneously, particularly on the same map

Worst: When someone else sets up a game, I don't get the starting point and they choose different settings to what I like

You still get the starting point.

Thanks jonty. I don't think I made enough points this month. 3 hours left everyone.

[DoomYoshi]

PRESIDENTIAL OUSTER CHALLENGE
Since the Madagascar President was ousted and is contesting it.
MUST BE: 6 Player Terminator on Madagascar. Round Limits:0 or 100 (no 20, 30, 50).
All other settings are allowed.

This time Game Start is 1 point, Finish is 1 point and each kill is worth 2 points. 20 Required for Victory.

Very easy challenge this month, I am just going to test a new scoring system, since the randomizer machine gave the same results as last time.
