However, they will have their list of available bounties modified randomly and have to pick from a smaller list of monsters, it will be treated as if another team member had already completed those bounties.“ We will give further information on the smaller list of bounties if the beginning of the event gets closer. So we hope you can wait a little bit longer until the start of the event we hope there are a lot more people who wants to join the fun of bounty hunting @ArtikSkarab Inuty has it right. I will wait a couple weeks after the event starts. Then I'll close sign ups and run the draft on monsters; and I'll do my best to make sure I don't interfere with monsters people have in progress.

Maybe, after the event starts. Still have people signing up and usually events pick up a lot of stragglers as they get going.

All good then! I do see that the roster of some teams changed recently: I'm assuming that some people changed their minds and removed themselves from the event? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, a couple people thought they would be too busy and didn't want to hold back a team so they backed out. I told them they were welcome back if they changed their mind. Slots are still first come first served though, so they may end up on a different team. 55 minutes ago, Spinacheq said: Sounds fun, sign me up pls, Mystery Inc if it is available if not, Claymores.

Spinacheq Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 @spacey_dweeb Question, just to clarify my mental thought processing, and I may be over thinking it completely. For the determination of EZPZ you use the formula below: On 8/2/2020 at 4:30 AM, spacey_dweeb said: This will be determined by the simple formula of (Plat Difficulty) x (Hours Needed). If that number is less than 18 then it is going to count as an EZPZ plat. My question is about the plat difficulty. On the guides it is listed as a number out of 10. for example monster monipiece, using this as I have already finished it, 3/10 with 25 hours. Does this mean for the calculation 3 x 25 = 75 points so not EZPZ. or is it (3/10) x 25 = 7.5 so counts as a EZPZ since it is under 18. Like I said I might be overthinking it when I was rereading the rules. thanks in advance for the answer. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantochi Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I got another question, related to @Spinacheq's one: Since easy plats are banned, do we get addicional points based on the rarity of the games we finish? Like, i'm planning to throw games like Evil Within, Outlast 2(don't know yet if we kill something in it or just run around like teens in horror movies), in my list, if i finish those games my team will get any bonus points for the rarity, or the winner of the event is based only on who finish the bounties first?

I'm just trying to prevent someone from doing a bunch of 3/10 games that take a couple hours each. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said I was probably over thinking it, as I was looking at rules and trying to decide if I had a game or two I could dive into until the event started, since I don't play a lot of sport games I was going to use the clarification to see if I had too many EZPZ games and i could just play one of those hehe. Thanks, again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, unfortunately it won't help the team out of you do something challenging or lengthy. But there is a possibility of side prizes. I mentioned that if Van Helsing team wins, the gift cards would be given out in such a manner. However, I was considering putting some distinctions on the event badges and was going to work with the VHA members to come up with a some titles to hand out. Like "Most Courageous" for whoever played the most horror games etc. Rarest platinum easily fits in. 5 minutes ago, Spinacheq said: Thanks for the quick response.

scemopagliaccioh Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I'm afraid I'll have to retire from the competition, I'm extremely burned out lately and need a break, remove also Themachineherald from the competition, or she'll pester me that I invited her to the competition only to zone out at the end.

Spacey_Dweeb Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 The start date is getting close! The list of bounties is now posted and you guys can figure out which games you want to picka nd coordinate with your teams. If you want to swap teams, I'll allow it now. I thought we'd end up being more full than we got. You are fine to remain where you are. A winning team doesn't have to be full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassylvania Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I love the designs. OK, Clan Belmont! Here's the situation. I have three games I plan to finish up for GBN3 before I can focus on this event. I've purposely waited on these three games until September so I can count them for this event too. As of right now, they are Another World, Ghoulboy, and Iconoclasts. I have no clue what kind of monsters are in those games, but I assume they'll each count for something (though they might all be considered EZPZ). I also plan to finish up Castlevania: HoD for my 10k milestone. I only have one trophy left in that game, but my argument will be that it requires killing 10,000 enemies...and I'm not even halfway there after doing all the other trophies in the game. Unfortunately, that might also be considered EZPZ, but that's what I'm kinda stuck with, guys. I'll be more useful after September 15. I don't have any specific games planned for after that, so maybe you guys each claim two or three monsters for now. I'll try to find some replacement games for my list.
