    The only guy I recognize in my bracket is Solinox (from MisfitRightIn alliance). Not sure if I've seen him on the forums, but I've seen him in several of my other brackets and he has a pretty solid roster with 5 maxed 3*. All the other top teams or ones near me are at best max 2* teams that have hit the SHIELD simulator.

    Fodder2009 is leading my bracket. Don't recognize any names so far . . .
    he was in my hollowpoint, not my season. He scored 1200+. Just so you know his score wasn't being buffed by playing the shield.
    Wonder if they're up to their old tricks of hitting people much faster than should be possible. Guess they must have gone straight, or learnt not to attack the same person over and over in quick succession if they're still around and not sand-boxed.

    With people in SHIELD up to 2000 points already, it''s going to take a few events for people who do well in PvP but haven't started SHIELD yet to start showing up in top 10.

    Well I'm up to top 10 in my bracket anyone see me? icon_e_smile.gif

    Edit: well just tanked hard not on the board any more

    I don't see you in the Shield stuff, but you've been popping up on my queue in Doctor's Orders...I think I skipped you and Brady28 last night, if I didn't and did in fact hit you... feel free to hit me back...I'm shielded and won't be able to play much today.

    Feel free to hit me pretty much whenever unless I'm like 1050 in falcon or something. But,especially this early in a tournament I'm usually going to have a pretty big point swing before the end.

    Pretty quiet Sat. I had a easy run in the Dr Doom tourney up to 900, which is usually a struggle and I've only made it that far a couple times. Since I did so well, thought I'd make a run at about 400 more pts to get the Black Hulk. Went into the Simulator and easily queued up all 2* teams to get over 1400, which was enough for the Hulk. Not many attacks and not many retals in the Simulator. Could be the quiet day. My first 3* is passed 100 and up to 115!
  • now that i got to 50k in the Hunt event i could work on my shield season ranking (plus farm iso) once i heal up my heroes. Once the Hunt is over i'll probably be focusing on this event since i do want to get a heroic 10 pack. Even if my alliance doesn't win Nick Fury, I still want to finish my 2* heroes so i can stop worrying about not doing so well in PvP tournys

    I saw you bacon.. Seems to be an easy bracket.. I barely hit the sim for 500 Pts.. So basically its just the score of the 2 last pvp that made me enter top 10.. I m a bit lucky for a change.. icon_e_geek.gif

    I recognize a few names in our top 10, and I think we did get a bit lucky. I think I'm around 500 in the simulator as well...my points have also come from the last two pvp's. Which are also the first two that I've ever reached 1000 points in. Reaching that 5000 progression for the Heroic 10 pack will be more attainable than I initially thought.

    Not that I'll get anything from those tokens though...

    The only name in my season bracket that I recognize from before the season is Knyghtmare. My bracket also has Flat Affect, who I had never seen before, but he was shielded in simulator yesterday and has now come up in my Doom MMR queue.

    Leader in my bracket is coffeeandbacon, and I know Copps is in there as well.

    Anyone else lurking behind top 10 in there?

    I'm in the same bracket as well. Currently at #28. Managed to avoid familiar names in the Doom bracket - and with a 2/0 Doom, that's actually a welcome relief. I've managed to push considerably higher than I had expected.

    I'm pretty sure I'll be out of the top 10 by Monday morning - or as soon as the forumites finish up the Hunt. I'm gonna be screwed on the Falcon essential Season events...
  • I got Davecazz in my bracket. For a second I thought about bemoaning my luck, but now I'm quietly celebrating that fact that PvE scores aren't taken into consideration. Did he unlock some secret subs to get that score?
  • I don't recognize a single name in my top 10, though Colognoisseur is a couple places above me at this point. To go further, I don't even recognize any of the alliance names of the 9 people in the top ten in alliances. I'm guessing I just lucked out, though my super-secret pretty much never fails start time probably helped.

    I want to say I saw you in the same bracket as me at some point, though I'm not positive. Is TwoChainz leading yours? If so, there's also clintman, bughunt, and wathombe in there, too.

    Yup, that's mine. We'll see if it's light on forumites or if it's just the top ten that is. I hadn't seen the others, but I can only see 19 people, I guess, out of the 5000.

    Nemek played a joke on him... told him if he gets first in every sub he'll unlock a secret prize... a fully covered Nick Fury.

    At this point we don't have the heart to tell him icon_cry.gif

    Actually, I think he was jealous of my PVE MMR. He thinks all-395 nodes is a *good* thing.

    Found dlaw008 in my shield bracket this morning. So that means we have at least 1 5DV (Knyghtmare), 1 Django (dlaw), 1 Shield (me), and 1 unalligned guy with crazy-high scores (Flat Affect).
  • Acilbalik, tc5434 and kakko at the top of mine - all of whom i've seen high in PVP. I'm in the teens, must be others lurking too

    With brackets of 5000 I guess there's maybe only 30 or 40 brackets formed so far (up to 200k players) so would expect a bunch of forum goers in each
