For those of you who might be wondering about how the event will be going down, allow me to explain.
It's simple really. Starting at 9pm, or shortly after it (so I can start the stream on KJSR.net) I'll be in Warburg calling out targets, the targets being other players in the zone. I'll place a value on the target, and the first player to get a kill shot on that target wins the bounty. To claim the bounty, simply chat on the Broadcast channel, a copy paste of the kill shot message. It should look something like "You have defeated ---- You have been awarded x rep" No cheating. If someone calls out a bad bounty, the bounty themselves can discredit the claim by announcing that it either wasn't that player who defeated them, or that they are, in fact, not dead.
Now a few clarifications, and answers to questions you might be thinking.
Only the kill shot counts towards the bounty. I know this seems unfair, but it would be very difficult to award everyone who simple damaged the target, or to figure out who did the most the damage. The kill shot is the easiest to verify, and this the easiest to reward.
You are more than welcome to form teams. You can help your teammates when they are a bounty target, and work together to take down other targets, and split the bounty amongst yourselves however you see fit.
Players could be the target more than once, based on how many total participants we have.
When you are the target, you are free to defend yourself to the best of your abilities. All I ask is you refrain from fleeing either to your base, (Boat for blue side, dock for red side) going underground, or flying to the zone ceiling. There's no reason to stand still and wait to die, But keep it "sporting" as it were so the event can flow at a nice pace.
If you are teamed, you can be buffed, healed, etc. Otherwise what's the point of teaming right? Teammates can also defeat others coming after you.
Expect to die. A LOT!
But most importantly just have fun. Don't worry about performing well, "pwning" everything within 300 cubic yards of you, or winning the most bounties. All players who actively participate, regardless of scored bounties will receive a cash prize.
All prizes for this event are cash.
Also I could use One person to serve as the Redside payout point. I will be issuing payouts to Heroes/Vigilantes. If you wish to be the Villain/Rogue please post below. First one to claim it, gets it. I will provide you with the INF to award.
Bounties will start at 25mil, and can be raised based on difficulty of the target to defeat, Just how generous I'm feeling, or if someone is trying to grief the good times, to ensure everyone in the zone hunts the sucker down.
You can use every power at your disposal (which in warburg will only be up to your lvl 41 power. There needs to be a lvl 50 FFA zone. GET ON IT DEVS!) Including vet rewards, temp powers, Inspirations, etc etc.
I hope to see a lot of you out there for this. I really want to give away some money!
Any other questions, please feel free to post below and I will do my best to answer them before the event...in like 40 hours from the time of this post.
My god I am a slacker.
[EDIT] When I picked the symbol, I thought it was a question mark. I now see it is a thumbs down. I fail.
Okay wow this is going up late, sorry about that.
