The last one is not even over yet and no end in sight. Death to All is the one that makes the BR, but I wouldn't flood his inbox with PMs.

GL with that.... Instant General..

BTW I think battle royale games should have a special preset point total for the winner.... This battle royale is going to be worth 3000 points or so? I do not think any one game should be worth that many points. I am sure there is a way to trick the system into a preset point total. Hell if they can make flat rate vs escalating, they can do the same with points from these games. Cap them. :) Just a thought..

Yes I would be saying that. Say James Vasquez wins.. He is about 2600 add 3K makes him our new conquer, with one game...

Gillian Wins 1900 + 3K = 4900 puts him well into the top 10... Not saying either one of these guys do not deserve to be up there, but I think 3000 points for any game is a bit much. .. What if one of the current top 10 were to win. (I think they are all out at last check) but if one was to win and walk away with 2500 points (takes point score into account) that would put someone at close to 7K or above. I think you get the point...

The scoring system on this site is one of the reasons why Battle Royales are even possible. If someone gets to be Conqueror for a week, then good for them. They will eventually return to somewhere near their previous point total. And I agree with Nate: people will only criticize Battle Royales until they have a chance of winning the jackpot themselves. It's all a matter of perspective. :roll:

If it was down to the final 2 and I was won of them, I would say the exact same..

I suggested something like this quite some time ago, with no official response (tho my timing turned out to be lousy, as I posted it a day before the big forum upgrade):

no, in battle royal everyone starts with what, 1 or 2 contries? so everyone will try and hit the high ranks as fast as they can for those cheap early points... the point of battle royal is to survive the longest to win, not get early cheap points
