December 2014 Challenge: The Automated Passport

[DoomYoshi]

All forum/wall stamps given to here. I have now given out 62 wall stamps and 88 forum stamps (a few may be duplicates though).

Looking into the autotournament and gift premium bugs now. To make things easier, can you post a link to the autotournament you joined?

For now, the only way is to join the Entertainment Team (that's me, and most of Team CC). There may be a way in the future for community tournaments to implement some stuff, but it's not a high priority right now.

Official Passport Challenge: Year in Review 2014
Brought to you by the Community Team

NO SIGN-UPS REQUIRED - Everyone is eligible!
Please read this entire post before asking any questions!

From a community events perspective, this year has been a powerhouse. Automation has really opened the floodgates. This December's challenge is a look back at what was new in 2014. We had the monthly challenges boom (and bust); many large-scale site-wide events; still new game features and UI.

I choose to look back on 2014 not as the year the decline continued. Rather, I look back at it as the year CC turned a new leaf.



The Challenge
We're giving everyone on CC a (virtual) passport, and we challenge each of you to get as many stamps as you possibly can.
How do you get stamps, you ask?
By doing a variety of things but mostly winning games.

Nota Bene: If more than one game condition is met, 1 random stamp is assigned from the possible stamps
Bot games and tournament games are not allowed

Stamps
There are 32 stamps in total, divided into 8 categories:

A:Events - win 1 game on each map or setting to get the stamp for that map or setting:

1.The Great War - played on any Great War token map (stamp07)
2. Holiday Events - Christmas map (stamp20)
3. Demon Speed - win a Speed game (stamp23)
4. World Cup Madness - any World Cup Map (stamp24)

B: Beta Maps:

32. Random Chance - These stamps are inserted into the normal rotation where Electric Green Stars would normally be (stamp32)



Prizes
10 stamps = GA Medal
20 stamps = GA Medal + Challenge Medal
30 stamps = GA Medal + Challenge Medal + 1 Blue Star

Special Prizes
First to 32 stamps = 1 Red Star + 1000 credits
Next 3 to 32 stamps (or top 3 with tiebreaker determined by date and time achieved) = Green Star + 500 credits
Next 10 to 30 stamps = 500 credits



Notes

• Games must start between CC Time: 2014-12-02 00:00:00 and CC Time: 2015-01-01 00:00:00 to be considered for the Challenge.
• Each stamp will only be counted ONCE per player. i.e. you can have 100 stamp01s, but the score for that stamp will still only be 1.
• If a team game meets the criteria for any stamp, each member of the winning team will receive that stamp.
• Data from all games that have finished by Jan. 1 will be collected on Jan. 1. After that, games will no longer count.
• Stamps not awarded from games may have some delay, as they are handed out by TeamCC volunteers.
• Prizes will be awarded in the first week of January.
• Any issues will be solved by me, [player]DoomYoshi[/player] and my word is final.

**Autotournaments which start in December will give stamps as part of the prizing.
Community tournaments which start in December will be given stamps.

Auto tourney stamp came through sometime last 12 hours! Thanks Yoshi...

Can someone explain to me in PM how to set up an auto tourney??

I see you are actually talking about stamp02.

Here is the handbook:
http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=90&t=93398

If anyone needs a few spots filled in their tournament to get it started, you can post it here. Same goes with games, as some have already been doing.

Has been 3 days and no Stamp 25 for gifting premium.

My stamp showed up about 3 hrs ago. whew!

[dazza2008]

I got my auto tourney stamp too. Thanks Doom

[King Tet]

Forgive my ignorance, but how do I join a guide game? I'd never actually heard the term before this challenge. I looked it up, but I guess I'm to simple to figure out how to join.

Fwiw, my auto tourney stamp took about 38 hrs, so just be patient!

These challenges are great, after 7 yrs. I was getting bored, the June challenge really kept me around and got me going again. Thanks!

The easiest way to join a guide game is to keep an eye on global chat. When a guide game is up, a message pops up that says something like "admin: Game Guide requested, Join/View". I was going to copy an example to show you, but there hasn't been one in several hours. They mostly happen during the daylight hours.

Anyway, just look at global chat regularly for a few days and you'll see one eventually. When you see one, don't hesitate -- click "join" right away or someone else will snap it up.

You need to watch Global Chat for Guide Game requests.

I'm not sure on question 1; will find out.

Any premium counts.

No, as long as we can see the effort was made. Prizes can be taken back if the tournament isn't started at all though.

[King Tet]

Ok thanks guys! I play on my iPad, global chat doesn't show up so I never see it, I guess that's why. I'll have to dig out the laptop

[b00060]

Will the host a tourney stamp be manual, because I am hosting one that I started in December. Also, any word on when Christmas map will be unlocked or when the details for the stamps to be determined later will be released.

Have anyone got stamp32 (random chance) so far?

[King Tet]

Have anyone got stamp32 (random chance) so far?

Yep! It was the first one I got, about a week ago. For some reason I looked at my inventory and thought, "hmmm, what's this stamp thingy?", that's what got me interested
