    One last query...
    My current AE arc scales so a low level (~10) should be able to solo it (With the mission ally), but at level 50(+1) +4x8 it starts approaching Lambda/BAF difficulty.
    How would you and the SG test this?
    Generally the arcs are run both solo and as teams at various levels...its really up to the individual in the group how they judge an arc but mission difficulty is not really a consequence of the judging. If its difficult; we make sure we bring the right amount of guns to get the job done. We are more interested in story, custom creations, map selection, etc.

    1. As an EU player it would be impossible to claim any Inf if I (/an EU Player) won with my (/their) arc.
    (No NA <-> EU Inf transfer system exists.)

    2. If I was allowed to enter and were my arc to win, would I be allowed to donate the prize via yourselves to PERC for a mention of both yourselves, myself and my winning AE arc?

    3. I could write a themed arc, but it would require confirmation of point #2, before I bother...

    4. I only have one AE arc up atm, which sadly doesn't match the theme, will probably wait until the next NON themed one, if allowed.

    What you do with your prize money would be your decision...I could send it to whomever you designate if that is what you would like to do.
  5. Next CC is the International themed CC on Tuesday night! Contestants may wear the costume themes based on any nation other than the U.S.A. The costumes do not have to be necessarily patriotic; just specific to a particular nation other than the United States.

    There's probably some out there, but the author community that actually participate in the forums is very small. You could get an accurate headcount from past contests I'm sure. Maybe like 20 of us? And I haven't even been playing in months due to health issues. Just pop by the forums every so often.
    I'm willing to sacrifice quantity for quality. Its all trial and error with these contests anyway; sometimes things work; sometimes they do not.
  7. No Roman or Irish themed arcs out there? Julius O'Malley would be spinning in his grave...if there were an Irish Roman named Julius O'Malley.

    Thanks for the clarification.
    Glad to be of service.

    If it was vampire I would have identified it as such. It is Masquerade as in a costume ball.
