Top Gun May 07 - May 09 (Season 1)

Unknown

5328 season points for me (87th in my main bracket if it matters). So yeah, this would be casting pretty wide nets of scores for our bracket.

How many event points do u have? It might not be MMR but event points creating the brackets..possibly. like there are multiple tiers of scoring at a time and you are put into the most recent not yet filled bracket within your tier based on season scores. After all, these are SEASON tournaments.

Otherwise we have to join at the same time from now on. Actually, have you joined the rag tournament yet? We could time our joining...for science...and see if we are put into the same bracket.

Season Points = 2703

And I have already started with Rags. I pushed to 300 for the Gold RT, the dropped my tanking team in to try to lower my MMR. But even with my tanking team in place, I am #67 at the moment. And no one has touched me in hours.

But next event, I'm down for a group in thing to see if we all get put in the same bracket or different ones.

t-minus 44 minutes until the moment of truth!!

I have 8254 points in Season 1 and avoided the bracket of doom, so I don't think it's points. If it's anything specific at all and not just a weird bug. I still have no clue why you'd want to separate brackets by MMR or some combination of MMR/points.

Interesting idea though...I mean, anything is possible when it comes to D3P, lol

But T-Rez and mohio are pretty close, whar just behind. Then mohio's friend between you guys and me.

Yeah...you and I are close. So, if it were based on event points, then I would think we'd be in this bracket...but we're not. Gotta have something to do with MMR.

only way to really know is have a groups of different scores join all at the same time...but yea...its mote a thought than anything. It's just odd, as we have never had so many top heavy brackets before...and this is 2 events in a row, and the "kyipgate" before that.

agreed. Mags obviously at 8,254, me at 8,384 and whatever you are at. Not sure who else hasn't started Rags yet though...I have not.

633 must be a magic number in my bracket. But in the few minutes it took me to screenshot this and get back, Dirtboy has bounced up to 659, putting me in 2nd place. grrrr.

daveomite

Way to break into the top 20 locked!! I just saw moving up...

I join events late usually. Around the time I joined this one... And I am @ 8671. No rag started, and sauce laoh and me seemingly have a bloodpact to never tell eachother our shield score or something lol.

Also, just got a +14 while shielded. I am not sure I've ever seen a lose by someone above 1k before, nonetheless 1.2k. I almost feel bad....

He's pushing hard too. Now he's at 685. . .

I don't know what to do. I feel like my honor is on the line.

EDIT: He's back down to 655. I just need a few more people to attack him and keep him down.

I've lost a couple of close ones up in the 1000 range: random cascades on your team that started the game with 1k/5k hp turns out to not be so good. Retribution actually does stuff when your team all starts below 50% health =(.

Thanks. I would need a 23 point push to put him under me. And I have a 28 lined up. I just don't want to break my shield too soon and end up plummeting.
I think Wolvie XForce will just have to suffer. I don't have a Patch and need his covers to help me get through Osborn Heroic easier for the required nodes. So I don't want to risk a guaranteed 2 cover Patch chasing a WXF that I don't currently use.

Not a bad idea. Patch is a great one to have.

Unknown

If he doesn't shield soon, he's going to end up underneath me. He keeps bouncing up and down. 685...655...671...651...672

Eventually he is going to run out of health unless he's got a healer.

Sidenote: How long does it take to get the rewards for the event once it ends? I'd like to do the Patch Nodes before the refresh.

Unknown

If any of you have me queued, fire away. I've made my 1300 and shielded out.

Excuses to dlaw... hit you on my way up, i think.

And I asked this earlier, and apologies if someone answered it and I missed it, but how are the matches made in PVP? Is it just in your bracket? Or everyone?
