CC10 -- Conquer Club Soon Turning 10!

Post by Dukasaur »

Image

On January 1st, CC is turning 10! And for our 10th birthday we are putting on quite a party!

CC10 Scoreboard Page

There will a series of 10 Super Royales that will open on each day from Jan 1 to Jan 10. Each Super Royale is entered via a CC10 Token that corresponds to its date. CC01 Token gains entry to the Super Royale opening on January 1, etc.

ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Unless otherwise specified each Super Royale is 24Hr, Freestyle, Escalating, Sunny, no special features. Below is the schedule of Super Royales. There will be only 1 of each, so they will in First In First Served.


CC10 Finale

The Winner of each Royale will receive a CC10 Cake, which allows entry to the CC10 Finale.

Image

If there are less than 10 winners, or a Cake winner does not enter the Finale by a certain time (Jan 15), additional Cakes will be issued based on the number of CC10 tokens owned.

The CC10 Finale will be one winner takes all game on the Classic map using default settings (Standard Escalating).

CC10 Prizes

First prize is granted to the winner of the CC10 Finale, and second to tenth prizes are grants to the losing finalists. Remaining prizes will get issued based on finish order on the CC10 Scoreboard.


    First Prize:
    Image $100 Amazon + Image Red Star + Image 2500 Credits + Image CA
    2ND-10TH:
    Image Blue Star + Image 250 Credits + Image CA
    11TH-30TH: Image CA
    31ST-50TH: Image GA

How to get CC10 Tokens?


CC10 Tokens can be obtained in the following ways:

  • Christmas Event Games played in the Christmas Event, particularly on the Christmas map, will have a chance of dropping CC10 tokens.
  • Decade In Review Games qualifying for our Decade In Review (January Challenge) will also have a chance of dropping CC10 Tokens
  • Whac-A-Mod A Whac-A-Mod event will run simultaneous with CC10. Aside from its own prizes all Whac-A-Mod games will have a chance of dropping CC10 Tokens.
  • CC10 Speed Battle Royales CC10 will be hosting the usual fiesta of Anniversary Speed Battle Royales throughout the event
  • CC10 Scavenger Hunt Join in the most devilishly cunning CC Scavenger hunt ever devised!
  • CC10 Chat Fiesta Ongoing activities in Live Chat, such as Chat Lotto, will issue CC10 Tokens, Whac-A-Mod invites and more.
  • CC10 Mafia A special Mafia game will issue CC10 Tokens for participation
  • CC10 Forum Bash To encourage community participation this activity encourages people show their CC love on the forum. Anyone that posts in the Conquer Club Discussion section of the forum will receive a Token.
  • Conquer Gods The Conquer Gods are pleased and may bestow CC10 Tokens upon you if you sacrifice some nice juicy stars to them
  • CC Store Tokens may be purchased for credits at the CC Store



More details below on some of these.

Christmas Event

Christmas Event Scoreboard Page

Running Dec 22-28, the Christmas Event will use the same "7 Days of Conquer Club" theming as last year. It will also use Gift and Stocking items, with the same scoring structure, however with a much simplified process for obtaining items.

Decade In Review

Decade In Review Scoreboard Page

Credit for this idea to Dukasaur! To be run by the Community Department.

Running parallel to CC10 (and as the January Challenge) will be the Decade In Review. This is a series of 10 Tournaments, each celebrating a year of CC by involving features that were released at or around that year. Each Tournament requires a corresponding CC10 Token to enter. As with CC10, 1 new Tournament will be released each day.

  • 2006 (CC10 01 Token, 36 spots): The original. Classic map, 6-p escalating adjacent freestyle
  • 2007 (CC10 02 Token, 32 spots): Introducing 1v1 games, flat rate, fog.
  • 2008 (CC10 03 Token 32 spots): The complex maps appear -- Waterloo, das Schloss, Prohibition Chicago, Battle for Iraq, WW II Ardennes, and Forbidden City
  • 2009 (CC10 04 Token 60 spots): Manual deployment and nuclear spoils
  • 2010 (CC10 05 Token 48 spots): The Golden Age of the Foundry -- featuring glamorous maps from the period
  • 2011 (CC10 06 Token 180 spots): Conquer Cup - In the anniversary spirit you can enter this Conquer Cup for real world prizes with a CC!) Token!
  • 2012 (CC10 07 Token 32 spots): Trench
  • 2013 (CC10 08 Token 32 spots): Parachute & Polymorphic games
  • 2014 (CC10 09 Token, 50 spots): The Bot Expansion
  • 2015 (CC10 10 Token, 64 spots): Tribes


Each Tournament issues Gold, Silver and Bronze Challenge Tokens for placing in the tournament. These will score on the January Challenge: Decade In Review scoreboard.

Decade In Review Prizes
  • Decade In Review will have a regular prize structure for a Monthly Challenge, but with some additional bonus prizes: Red Star for the winner, and a Green Star for second place.
  • The Conquer Cup (2011) Tournament will have Amazon gift certificate prize(s).
  • Any game that starts in this event will also have a chance of dropping CC10 Tokens.

When entering the Royales a token is taken off on the scoreboard - is this correct? If so then might not be worth entering if you want to stay near the top. Just a thought.

Hah, good luck with that. Sitting in one for 16 hours didn't get closer than 10 people needed.

I don't know what to say. Looking at Game Finder I find 21 BRs that have played out since this event began, or an average of more than 5 per day. Some don't fill that quickly, but 16 hours seems outlandish.

France and Prohibition Chicago are still up, I'll check in the morning. I'd wager they will be.

EDIT: Looks like they filled up around noon!

So I just won a cake, but this tournament and even up yet, I cant join it.

Also you have to get in by Jan15, while the last battle royal starts 10 januari. And then it only starts as a tournament. So say it starts the 11th then it has to end in 4!! rounds so someone can join on time. I think thats a bit crazy. You should just auto invite all the CC10 Battle Royal winners! Nor should you give out additional cakes on the CC10 tokens owned. Then it should just go between the guys who won the BR's!

I have enjoyed the tournament. Lots of fun and silliness.

I find it rather bogus that the only way into the big tournament is through a freestyle game. Some of don't have lives that allow constant monitoring, and/or we are playing on mobile platforms that are really disadvantaged in a freestyle contest.

Overall, I give the tournament a 6 out of 10. The bummer mentioned above takes 3 of those points away by itself. Fun times anyway.

Thanks and congrats to all who worked on this. I know it must have taken a lot of time and effort and I appreciated it. Kudos.

I even got an e-mail about a game starting, but the game doesn't exist:

Hello agentcom,

Your patience has paid off... game 16255803 has started and it's time for your opening turn. Be sure to check on your game at least once every 24 hours so that you don't miss your turns.

Go here to make your move.

Regards,
The Conquer Club
