    I'm in your bracket. This one's going to be ugly. I was hoping I could push up to 800 or so and maybe grab a top 10. Looking like that's going to be closer to 900 to have a shot. Just ugly.

    This is twice I've joined a bracket (at roughly the same time) and gotten a Jachdo bracket. So at least now I know when to not join. Ugh.

    Now there's a place for a table if I ever saw one!

    I probably can't take a last minute shot at this, so if you get past me you should be 1 spot safer. Probably

    You probably don't need that black Punisher, I'm sure, and 200 pts cushion is very disheartening to most people. If there are crazies in your bracket I think you would have known by now.
    Too early. and Black Punisher means another 500 ISO.

    I planned to shield at 1000, but just when I reached 1000 I won on defence for 20pts so decided "ah, what the hell" and with only one disturbance (I'm looking at You, Chimaera) I reached 1101. And just when I was shielded, same guy lost to me again so finally it was 1117. And just won again for 8pts.

    tc5434 is pushing a bit, so if You happen to get him in queue, be good to Your moderator and smack him icon_e_wink.gificon_twisted.gif

    Lol ah oops >.> It was the other Chimaera.

    I periodically get hit by 141 Spidey teams at 300-400 points, just playing the odd match to keep me around the 700 mark for when I make my push sometime tonight maybe. Only need to get past 1k probably with this bracket, don't need the Punisher cover obviously. On my screen you were around 740 points I think, the game really needs to keep track of the up to date point totals better, you must have been queued for some time. The guy who hit me earlier cannot be at 400 still, why it is not smart enough to update is beyond me. I refuse to retaliate against those stupid Spidey teams because its free points for them so I need to pick on someone else.

    Does the amount of levels boosted to Punisher increase as his level increases? If so, what level would a maxed level Punisher be once boosted? Just wondering if the guy I just saw with the lvl 185 Punisher was cheating or if that was legit.

    Max level is 212, that is the standard boost for max covers. There are more powerful forms like in "The Best There Is" tourney but they are rare.

    Well was going to push to 1100 but won a defence so I pushed through to 1200 and shielded if anyone has me in their q feel free I likely won't unshielded unless someone catches me last bag lady cover and whatnot.

    Alright, thanks to picking up 48 points overnight while shielded I'm sitting at a much more respectable 1044 and feeling good about this with less than 11 hours to go.
    1044 would have been a nice shielding point anyway, so that worked out.

    If the app reloads, it clears out your retaliation history, except for the three nodes that were previously visible. That sucks, because I often have to shut down the app because the chat stops working correctly.

    First off, damn! that's ****. lol was wondering why that happened on my hot shot tourney. Second off, are you shielded right now?? I have you in a node saved up from back at 900 points and I've been saving it but I don't want you to come after me! icon_lol.gif

    I just hit 1100 and shielded for a bit, so go for it. I'm not pushing any higher. I'll just need to do a quick battle and reshield so I can be covered for the rest of the event.

    Nice! I am planning on making my huge push here soon so I can drop my 8 hour shield before bed. So I hope you are doing that quick battle in the final hours?

    No. I'll be doing it in a few hours, before bed. You're best off hitting me now. I mainly plan to find a fairly squishy team that I can take out quickly and reshield. I would only retaliate if I got hit and dropped below 1100, because I want to make sure my alliance gets good points from me.

    Oh that's just tinykitty great. So not only am I in MMR hell, I cause MMR hell to people who attack me.

    And here I was going to say I hope that 42 points helps.

    Clearly you just lost too little health and had too much ap at the end of the battle. Please attack me and retreat to lower your PVP scaling icon_twisted.gif

    Done and done! I have worked myself into a weird LR bubble in which I mostly see forumers with tank teams that I beat and forumers with serious teams to which I retreat. Considering how stoned I am right now, I am super proud of that sentence structure. Thanks J-School!

    Seriously, I raised C. Mags frm 117 to 135 today after maxing my BP. It all fell into place when I stopped trying for Diabolical tokens that mostly brought me Moonstone.

    This is the worst tourney ever. Also the most expensive for me, if you know what I mean. If it wasn't for the green Grey Widow cover I would have skipped it altogether. If I get bumped out of getting the cover I will QQ, I'm serious.

    And they all post in this thread.
    I was about to say the same thing.. Funny you are the one who wrote that as you are in my queue with copps .. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I guess with our retal war (which I seem to be getting the better points from - suprised that you keep coming back at me) I am another one of those 5? Does that mean that my 141 pun, 141 hood and 128 cmags is the easiest team of those 5 to beat?

    Im seeing you a lot but only for 25 points so im gonna leave you for now (pretty sure I have only retaliated against you so far but I may have started it? only ever gonna hit 5 blue spidey if the retal wont leave me worse off!! (just hit WYP instead (S.H.I.E.L.D do not need the points!!!)
    i must say i got a lot of fun for the back and forth retaliation.. i make this event just for isos and alliance purpose.. so i keep coming at you until i got to go.. i reach the 1100 pts treshold and just leave it at that.. anyway that was really great.. hope we'll have another of this bidding war.. icon_mrgreen.gif

    Thanks to this tourney and some LRs, my Hood is now lvl123 and I plan to reach his soft cap at 128 by tomorrow (oh last Blue, where is thee?*). He's one of those heroes that really make a difference - the AP just keep on flowin' icon_e_smile.gif

    *he is, beside Punisher, the only char I bought a cover for. and it was totally worth it.

    I'll be in the cinema by the time Army of One ends (hopefully at Winter Soldier) so I won't be able to correct my rank in the last minutes, but I feel rather secure.

    btw. anyone seen Snowpiercer? is it worth it? I have rather high demands for action movies, so take it into consideration icon_e_smile.gif

    I honestly thought I had GSBW at 5/2/5 (just completely under levelled as I never had Rag covers).

    So I kinda let this event go to the side. Turns out I was at 4/2/5. Alas!
