    Well...This will be my first pvp as a spanking new member of SHIELD. Don't see any recognizable forumites in it yet...but prepared for surprises on my way, lol.

    Thank you! Kinda shocked I got invited to the party, lol.
  • Score seems really low this event, but more from a lack of action as opposed to constantly being hit. Is BP being the featured character slowing down the game? I don't actually mind the pace of the attacks and they should try to shoot for this kind of outcome. It's good to be able to see your rating hold in top 10 for more than 30 seconds before the attacks come.

    @toxicadam - are you going to push some more or shielded for good? I'm not sure if our bracket will have crazy people pushing for 1000 points or more. icon_e_sad.gif

    I think I'm done until the end. I just want top 25.


    SHIELD is down to 15 ppl? The burnout is real.

    I'm just being cautious as the zombie horde tends to overtake very fast. Gonna push a bit while I can, also hoping for a Top 25 spot.

    Started seeing some forumites in my queue, seems like a good time to say that I'm making my push. Hit me if you must, but I'd rather you didn't.

    I am in your bracket of bloody forumite carnage. I do not like it. That is all. icon_evil.gif
    Jeez, half the forum is in this bracket. Even saw klingsor earlier. If 355 is optimal sentry build, then top 25 won't be too bad. But top 10 is gonna be a ****.
    Yep. I'll probably get pushed down to around #20, and that's assuming that my points actually start registering, which they've decided to stop doing for the past few hours.

    Why couldn't I have gotten an insane bracket in the last PVP, when I didn't care about placement? Sigh. icon_cry.gif

    My points this morning are registering just fine?

    And when nobody cares about placement, it's easier to place well, of course.
    This time, new shiny *_*
    Everybody cares about placement.
    Well, except the whales.

    Yeah, my latest fight just got its points registered. It'd be funny if my last few fights suddenly jump me up in points.

    I'm talking more about the people I've seen in my leaderboard so far: 2 SHIELDbros, 2 Pandas of Doom, a 5DV, a 5DP, a Spartan, bahukma, ragthor, and CronoDAS. EvilSonGoku saw klingsor hanging around, too. Far too densely packed with doom for my liking.

    Yah... that'll be a fun top 10 :S
    Be glad there's nothing at 1100, though. Starfall Pt 2 with anything other than red will be... bad.

    I'd say the action is far from lacking considering you hit me twice as i tried to cross 1k. No worries though i finally made it....but....i do have you que'd up...dun dun dun.... icon_twisted.gif
  • The only forumite that I've seen in my bracket is Bowgentle. Hey Bow! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    This tourney is going definitely better than the last ones for me. L176 BP surely is getting me a lot of skips and, incredbly, this time I'm getting a lot of defensive wins too! About 50%, while my usual was 5-10%. My Hood is still far from usable with his puny 2 blue covers, but my BP/LT/OBW trio is surely serving me well in the meantime.

    @Bowgentle: would you mind if I go after that green IW? Do you have a set amount of points as a goal? Asking just in case I somehow, by chance, manage to get high in the rankings and don't fall asleep before shielding icon_razz.gif

    I've seen tc5353 (or whatever) when going up, and I know my wife is in there too, but other than that we seem to have lucked out a little, yeah.
    *cue forumites appearing in the top 10 in the next hour*
    My IW is fully covered, I won't bother going for 1st until Fury gets put up as a prize.
    You'll need to be north of 1000, though, I don't expect this bracket to stay _quite_ so calm with Sentry on the line.

    I'm shielded until the end of the tourney @ 905 pts or so. We'll see what rank that makes this tourney....
    Just wanted to make the hero pts level, I'm not cool enough to be able to shield jump to the 1100 so I'm content to let you all feast on me now

    Hit me if you see me, or have me as a Retal. I know I saw Twysta and mohio in my bracket when I started out....


    Good luck everyone!

    Yeah, I know, I don't realistically expect to get that high, but it's worth trying. Not holding my breath for that IW, I know that with Sentry as a prize the last hours are going to get intense, but this time I can actually aim to at least a top 10. It was more wishful thinking than anything else icon_razz.gif
  • Yo franckynight - let us know when you're shielded. Looks like you're making a push. I'm saving you in a node but don't want to nail you again since I'm pretty sure I hit you a couple of hours ago too.

    Edit: aaaaand a hit from below means I've lost you anyway. Never mind!

    I'd say that my pace is a bit faster due to occasional (1 in 3 fights) launch of BP Black after Berzerker Rage.

    And I think I just started to like BP. Combined with CMags and Patch it's like watching Michael Bay's movies. Minus Megan Fox fixing the car scene.
