    If you have seen that I have lost to you, you're welcome. I know I lost to Riggy, NerdRage, Der Lex, and someone else.

    I cannot handle these 212-141-141 teams with any type of consistency, and that is all I am seeing.

    I think I know what caused the crash, it couldn't keep up with all the people hitting me.

    I was playing as normal in a match, then got kicked to the title screen. Re-enter and see I was hit 6 times, dropping from 764 to 616. And my team was downed.

    Made it up to 900 and have no intention of unshielding unless top 10 is in danger.

    Seems to be a fairly quiet bracket. MTGOFerret has 1st with 1072 but my 902 points is still good for 2nd.

    Just saw this. I think you already hit me, but I'm done for the event so if you or anyone else has me in a node, go ahead and hit away.

    extended again to be "fair" to everyone? how bout those who need to spend on shields again?

    I certainly hope that they don't extend this tourney. just give us a free lazyvdaken cover, not that we feel entitled, but because its the best goodwill gesture that everyone will appreciate.

    Hoping those who aren't impacted can run up some ridiculous scores to show the problem. Since franckynight hit off my shield after the outage started, I am counting on him to go for broke.

    Are you just Ryz or rys in game? Did you hit me earlier?! I thought we were cool icon_cry.gif

    Another tight bracket.

    #1 at 932.
    #10 at 809.

    All shielded.

    Known nicknames: only Gambl0r312.

    IIRC, spots 11-15 were around 780-800, so I expect massive movement in the last hours/minutes.

    Why so many high level IM40s? I know that back in the day before you kids' Hulks and LazyThors he was pretty good for his high HP and (at the time) high damage attacks, but I'm seeing quite a few "212 IM40 and two underleveled 2*" teams. What in the world?

    Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of these teams too. 212 IM40 + cStorm + OBW, 212 IM40 + 2* Magneto + OBW... I don't get it.

    Yeah I'm getting them too. I see a match worth 30 (a big deal for me!) with OBW and CStorm and just as I'm about to hit Fight I notice IM40 sitting over there at 190+...

    It's either them or maxed Hulk/LCap/LThor mixes and when my highest is Punisher at L102 there's really not a lot I can do about them but skip.

    I'm in the same bracket. Got over 900 with about 9 hours out, and got hit by everybody just before the 8 hour shield point. Shielded at 826; figure it should be good for top 25. Since I hate Lazy Daken, should be good enough, and I should be in-pocket on HP.

    IceIX said the most popular characters to play are Cap and Iron Man. There are probably a ton of players who acquired a few IM40 covers and purchased their way to 141. I too saw 212/85/85 teams.

    My bracket is a ton of fun! I'm playing the new MPQ veteran favorite game of "Do I have enough points over 1000 to hold onto 10th place?" icon_rolleyes.gif

    Holding onto 6th at 1023, but I see Clintman on the radar... so make that 7th momentarily. icon_lol.gif I tell you, watching the scoreboard all night is TOO MUCH FUN! How did I ever play MPQ satisfactorily before the creation of the death brackets?

    Wow, server still borked I guess. This is a first.

    So I decide to do some matches and push, I am around 380 pts and climbing. Finish a match for 38 pts, I'm thinking I'm gonna cross the 400 plateaau, I come out and.....my pt total is 325.

    I figure it's server lag, no big deal, the score will correct itself. I do another match, this time for 40 pts....score still stuck at 325.

    It's been 30 minutes. I've tried restarting the app, nada.

    .. and yet no compensation for it. icon_rolleyes.gif

    Yeah one of my alliance members if having the same problem he has been stuck at like 136 in heavy metal for hours and his PvE scoring is not working either... so lame

    The last few hours are just brutal. It doesn't matter who you are or what roster you got.

    I just spent 3 hours tinykitty trying to get 300 points and I couldn't even do that. The top 10 of my bracket is all garbage 85 teams with some 100+ and My patch mags combo cant even break into 900 range. I come out of every match at a loss this is tinykitty complete tinykitty garbage.

    This is not sustainable game play I am literally about the rage quit the game for good and I am one of the most patient people you will ever meet,. I cant even break 900 i just turn off the phone not shielded. **** this.

    Oh down to 720 how **** nice.

    Yo LoreNYC are you shielded?

    I hear you Chim. I'm lucky if I can break 700 anymore. So many beat downs in that area. Everyone I'm facing is 141's, and you can't just win a lot of those matches quickly, let alone in quantity before you're outta health and health packs. You're trading wins at best and at worst your down 40 or 50 for every 20 you win. I used to place in the top 10 and more often than not, top 5, bit I'm sick if the way these events are working now so I'm just trying to stay in the top 50, which is a crapshoot.

    My favorite thing is being between 600-700 and all of the newcomers can see me in their first fight and crush me for high 40s. Thanks jerks.

    I think you're shielded, LoreNYC (points not moving), so expect to be hit with extreme prejudice in the next hour! If retals don't hide your tasty points for me, that is.

    tell me about it..... This game seems to think I have a good team or something. My top 10 are almost all 1k+ now. No idea why I am in a bracket with people like that as I only have level 85 2*'s. Managed to get to about 835 and just as I shielded got attacked for 70.... so down to 765 which is good for 33rd at the moment. Might hang on to top50 if i'm lucky.
