Another European who is on a lot and hasn't seen a single game. Hardly worth the effort of trying now

Re: Whac-A-Mod 2014
450+ games created by mods in the first 36 hours +/-
I've personally gone from 12 games to over 100 in first 24 hrs
The games are out there

Random, poly (2/3 slots) or standard. No spoils, parachute, foggy, trench. For the 1st 10 players who ask on my wall.
Feel free to wall me if you can't get a game

Re: Whac-A-Mod 2014
Fair play to the couple of mods who have made an effort here, but given a 100+ game headstart by others, and two days also, it's not worth starting so late
Shame there aren't more mods outside north america

The scoring for the tournament is done by percentage, not by total games. As long as you can join seven games in seven days, you qualify for the scoreboard. There's no advantage for joining hundreds of games. In fact, having fewer, and paying attention to winning a high percentage of them, will get you further up the scoreboard.
You need to join 40 games to qualify for the Challenge medal, that's true, but Challenge medals are intended to be very difficult to get.
For everything else -- the GA medals, the Green Star, the final showdown -- you only need to join seven, repeat seven games. Over the seven-day event, that means you only need to join one a day. That's all. One a day. I know there is a lot of misinformation out there, but you will get further by just joining seven games and being really focused on winning them, than you will by joining a lot more.

Re: Whac-A-Mod 2014
Would like to sign up, but the way this is set up, makes it very difficult, I've been looking several times a day at the Banner, always says NO Games Available, CC should have set this up like the last couple of years, or at least have a decent way to sign up. don't know if there are singles, dubs, etc., or what, information is lacking. From the other post, this is a poorly set up tourney. You have to go to a Mods wall to try to get a game, This tourney is typically fun, but finding it hard to smile for this one. good luck to players who manage to get in.
If there is a thread to go too, would like to sign up torres44cm and suzieq51

Re: Whac-A-Mod 2014
I'd like a game or two as well. Can't seem to get in on one from the banner. Are there a few people sucking them all up?

Re: Whac-A-Mod 2014
Wall me if your looking for something. I've been posting to the banner from time to time.
You'll need to be patient with turns since I'm over 100 games for this already.

Re: Whac-A-Mod 2014
As the second day of the event draws to a close, almost 600 games have begun. In the past, we usually had little over 600 games total in a Whac-a-Mod event that usually ran three days. We're well on our way to far surpassing that this year.

I've been posting games every now and then, but they're snapped up almost immediately. If you want some team action, wall me with the names of your partner(s). =)
[player]grt[/player] is going to be tough to beat, though. He joined exactly 7 games, has won 5, and 2 are still playing. The board has him at 71%, but he's actually a perfect 5 for 5 so far!

JOHNNYROCKET24 wrote:you run onto this problem each time. Its a 3 day event but games are only available 1 day. Than everyone joins the games leaving no games for some players. In the past years, you only needed to win one game but could only join one game at a time for the medal so no big deal. Now you need to collect X amount of tokens. Good luck trying to fulfill that requirement with limited games.
I have had the same story, never seen available games

And even though JOHNNYROCKET24 has complained so much he some how has managed to join no fewer than 21 games.... seems somewhat hypocritical doesn't it?

Re: Whac-A-Mod 2014
I'm sending some invite to players who posted in this thread that they're not getting game but only for those that the scoreboard shows that they are falling short of the 7 games requirement.

Is there a limit to the number of games you can play at once?
