This is my first time playing the Pirates map and it seems flawed. At least 1 v 1. It seems as though players can keep each other in check till the round limit. I'd love to learn this map via doubles if their are any takers.

This is probably true on all of the Poly settings. You should probably stick to Promontory Summit.

P&M is severely unbalanced, go check the thread for a load of discussion.

@betty - I know, but I still have a couple of poly4 games going and my game count is too high to consider starting more.

How come I do not appear in the score board? I need to see where I am for each medal so I know what games I need to work on adding to keep within the parameters of dubs, trips and quads wins.

b00060, I saw you few time ago in the classement

if, you don't appear, it s probably because you ve got a sort of medal >5 than an other

so, it gives 0pts, and just 100 are in the classement, 100th has 2 pts

look in your finished game what sort you ve less won ;)

scuse for my english

Look in your Inventory under Event Items.

Everybody who gets 35 points will get a Challenge medal.

Mathematically, it can be done in 10, maybe 11 based on how it is programmed (there might be a requirement for one of each type of medal). Either way, that's pretty impressive.

Had an issue this morning as a game that started before 4/1 (3/28) and finished 4/1 didn't give me a medal for winning it. Can you please check into it.

If you start a game in the time period when the game ends you get a medal for your points. The game ending time period should last till the end of April. So all games started in March will count as long as they are completed in April. At least every other monthly challenge worked that way, regardless your have probably won the overall medal unless you get out of balance with the 5 medal rule. I'm just trying to get top 5 for a blue star.

Note to self and others. Don't accidentally hit accept all on invites. It may be someone suckering you into playing a ton of poly 4 games that will end up disqualifying you for the March Challenge...even though you have enough medals for second place. My mistake. Although I won't play a challenge structured in such a way that to stay eligible, it may mean purposely losing games. I could easily lose enough games to force a top 6 player into having more than 5 medals above the ratio, but I wont.
