    2.5 day subs. Fairly sure I'm sitting out until late tomorrow.
    Yeah personally I usually like to join somewhere in the middle of the event. Keeps you away from most of the hardcore grinders that join right at the start and the pros that join and rubberband at the end. At least I feel like it does icon_neutral.gif

    Dhx - Are you trying for the IW cover in the divine champions tourney? I'm sitting unshielded above you just coasting through the event since I have Doom fully covered. Wasn't planning on anything higher than top 25 for the HP and ISO, but since I'm sitting in first anyway... Let me know if you want first and I will drop a couple matches.

    I've noticed recently that a lot of times when I'm shielded and get attacked the writing is blue and says +0. It used to appear in red and say -0 when I lost. Now it looks like I defended successfully but didn't get any points. Has anyone else noticed this? Was just curious if it's a glitch or if they changed it. Hopefully I'm not losing out on defense points...

    I skipped you a ton of times in matchmaking today in divine champions. Dammit man you're costing me precious iso! icon_lol.gif Btw we were running the same team.

    Lol tell me about it!
    I wasn't going to use shield for this one but number one was pretty within reach so I thought what the heck, might as well get bag lady.
    I was in the middle of a retaliation war with some guy while almost at #1 and you name kept popping up when I was queuing other nodes.
    Your points were really delicious and I must admit it was tempting to hit you once then retaliate him and get that edge to #1 lol.
    I prevailed and am shielded at #1 right now with a slight edge.
    Next time I see you around near the end I'll make a post for you to queue me so you can hit me after I shield lol.

    edit: never noticed the + or - 0. I have been getting points for successful defends though it seems to be working ok.

    I think so. I could use an IW cover for any required PvE team-ups. But it looks like tonzil is making a run and I would hate for you to drop and then he edge me out at the end. I think I'm going to lull him to sleep if he stays within a few wins and hit it hard with ~15 min left.

    Given you guys have the best looking signature block on the boards icon_e_smile.gif and I think I meet your criteria (except I don't post all that much on the boards, but I lurk...), thought I'd "join." My name in the game is just "A_B." What may not be obvious from my roster is that I play every day (i.e., I didn't buy those covers or ISO), definitely more than I should, and they say the first step to conquering your addiction is admitting you have a problem. And adding HP is no big deal if it helps.

    Thanks.

    Hey AB, our current policy is to have the last 2 open spots on our team remain as rotating slots, meaning they will only be temporary until the end of the current alliance event. We can definitely use another addict on the team icon_e_biggrin.gif And looking at your roster, I am very jealous if you got that all just from grinding and cover pulls. I have not had such great luck with pulls, most of my 3 stars are missing a lot of covers. icon_cry.gif I would say you're in based on your roster and your coming to the forum to communicate your interest, but I was one of the last to join. Final say will probably come from Radiopy.

    Thanks for letting me in! I appreciate the consideration that went into the decision.

    I was just doing the Simulator and checking out Alliance ranking/rewards and did a double-take when I saw I was actually in an Alliance. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    And yeah, it's all grinding and pulls, but I have no luck! It's just lots and lots of playing from day 1. I have a really long commute (1.5-2 hours each way) and I put my 3 year old to sleep every night. He takes forever to settle down. Leaves me with lots of time to grind. What else am I going to do? Read classical works of literature? Learn a language? Keep up with current events? Crazy talk. icon_lol.gif

    I have no problem with a policy of kicking me to the curb if I don't pull my weight (I think I will, but that's up to you guys). I would totally throw me out if the situation was reversed.

    Anyway, I'm nearly at 16,577 in the Simulator with some more grinding left in me for the evening ... and that was without the motivation of pulling my weight!

    Wow lol that sounds like an exact description of my experience in divine champions today. The guy I was going back and forth with had slightly more points than me so it was a winning battle for me. We were both climbing through the 700s. But then after 3 or 4 times beating him, when he hit me back I saw his rating had dropped below 700 and I lost a bunch of points, so I couldn't keep attacking him. Had to pick some other targets, but eventually got up to 825 after taking a few hits from other players, was a bit of a grind so I decided to pop the shield or it all would have been for nothing. 3rd place in my bracket is like 100 points behind, and 4th another 100 points. So it would be kinda pointless to shield unless it was for 1st place.. Hopefully 2nd, who's at 804 doesn't break his shield at the last minute, don't wanna have to break mine and stress over it

    Welcome aboard, A_B.

    I'm done for the night. About 20k points, 7,3,1 in total, normal and hard, respectively. Good luck all!

    Tonzil finally shielded. Really appreciate that drop, Sol. Thank you.

    Should be good for your win I think Dhx. Poor Tonzil ended up in my MMR and got smashed down pretty hard. I retreated my last fight to drop just under you I think.

    Dammmmit wasn't paying attention and got passed at the end. Oh well not like the IW cover was gonna help me all that much anyway icon_rolleyes.gif Just mad I wasted 75 HP on the shield. On the plus side this puts my Doom at 5/4 icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Ah damn sorry to hear that, yeah that's definitely happened to me a few times before too.

    My 2nd place guy unshielded and tried to take 1st from me.
    I actually felt bad for him cuz he got beat down to the 700s and fell out of top 5 icon_lol.gificon_cry.gif

    My doom's 4/4, he's sorta just the kinda 3* that comes along without really trying. I played more for the ISO and HP lol.

    Same here, it's going to be a busy weekend so a couple hours at night should be enough to place pretty good

    What's everyone's general strategy? I'm playing in bursts, tackling high-point missions 3 or 4 at a time. I'm floating around 30,000 points and am top 10 in both subs. Our alliance total points are around 415,000 so my guess is some people are tackling it differently?

    I'm playing in bursts throughout the day, trying to stay near the top of all my brackets and then doing a major grind at night before I go to sleep. Right now I'm in first in all my brackets with about 36k..

    i'm going to play for around 3 hours after everyone has gone to bed, that should be enough get me top 10 easily, right now i'm seeing levels with 2000 points, tomorrow at noon i'll play for another hour or 2 and late night tomorrow another 2-3 hours
