February Challenge: Scenari-ari-ari-o

[DoomYoshi]

Official Monthly Challenge for February 2015
Brought to you by [player]DoomYoshi[/player] and the Community Team


CLICK HERE TO JOIN WAITING GAMES

It was only a matter of time before I integrated my two current-favorite aspects of Conquer Club. Not all the challenges going forward will be scenario-based, but for those high rankers who don't want to lose points, but still want to compete for the prizes, we now have something for you!

The first scenario I crafted uses some of the more popular scenario ideas going right now, with a twist, to add challenge. There are 3 teams, not with equal chances to win. The catch is that you can't pick your partner! You also can't pick your color.

Also note that the join process for scenarios is different than the waiting game you are used to. You can request as many as you want, and as they fill up, they will start.

NO SIGN-UPS REQUIRED - Everyone is eligible!
To sign up all you need to do is join and win at least one game started between February 1 and February 28 with the following settings:


Medal Criteria
You need to win 5 tokens for the medal, including 1 of each color

Winning as Team 1 gets a gold token (worth 10 points)
Winning as Team 2 gets a silver token (worth 5 points)
Winning as Team 3 gets a bronze token (worth 4 points)

The points only determine place on the scoreboard.

Wins will still be counted until March 31.


Notes

• Games must start between CC Time: 2015-02-01 00:00:00 and CC Time: 2015-02-28 23:59:59 to be considered for the Challenge.
• Any issues will be solved by me, [player]DoomYoshi[/player] and my word is final.

Last month's scoring was very anti-spam. This month, the spammers get another chance to be top dog.

are you going to create any non freestyler games. please

After finishing 7 games and having 35 more in the play, I'd say the scoring isn't really fair. Team 1 & Team 2 should have swapped positions, it turns out it is hardest to win as Team 2, because you start in a sandwich between Teams 1 & 3 and get dead already at a round 5. Win as Team 2 should weigh at least 7 points.

there are different strategies to use for each team, I actually prefer the sandwich...

I never see any games on the "games to join" link?

Yea, I guess it was kind of skewed the wrong way. However, it impacts everyone the same way, so it's still fair in an absolute sense.

60 games finished so far, almost 200 played.

Team 1: 16 wins
Team 2: 13 wins
Team 3: 31 wins

I think team 2 has the best chance if they get some good, early dice and take that big bonus... it's a heck of a lot of 1s on that continent. As long as team 1 stacks Green, its almost impossible for team 2 to win (dice notwithstanding).

I'm still missing a win as team 2. you get easyly crushed by green when you're blue.

Haha, 60 games finished so far, and I got 58 finished games (and I played only scenarios)
Team 2 can win if they get a rainbow set with only 3 cards and take out pink/green early. Otherwise is a no go.

Catering to the high ranks...how much worse can this site get? The high ranks bitched because the monthly challenge could be won by someone who played more games than them so that was changed. Now a challenge that no points are involved, pitiful, pitiful, pitiful.

Do wins in these games count for medals?

Do scenario games count towards overall medal progress? Doubs,freestyle, Team medal.

is there any sense in the jibberish you're saying? I wasn't joining those games for example because in spite of getting win rates way above the expected win rates i'd lose points, as these games are full of stripers. Now you're bitching because you get the competition deserved to reach the top spots of the scoreboard (I'm personally not running after that)? you're a sorry old man.

Why the personal attack? Yes I'm an old man....but sorry? Maybe in bed but that's it!!

didn't even check your age, was just an assumption. I guess I was right then!
Anyway... i still don't get how the point you were trying to make could make any sense.
