Vallter
03 Aug 2011
Who is compared with the God of War? And who’s damage from ambushing help the team to win? Self Propelled Guns and Tank Destroyers – these are the ones, who do not fight on frontlines, but often turns a loss into a victory. And the third Most Valuable Players contest is for them.
We are looking for players who will achieve the best results in “Death from above” and “Confederate” categories from now till 23.59 UTC (11.59pm UTC) of the 4th of August.
ATTENTION! WE CHANGED THE RULES AND SPLITTED SPG'S INTO 2 SUB_CATEGORIES (PER MANY REQUESTS). PLEASE, READ THE RULES FOR 'DEATH FROM ABOVE' CATEGORY CAREFULLY AGAIN.
Attention! If after reading the rules, you have some doubts or questions, feel free to ask in the discussion topic. Your questions will be added to the special F.A.Q. section of rules.
Important notes about the contest:
- Every player takes part in the event;
- Player with the biggest amount of MVP points wins;
- MVP Points earning rules are specific for each category;
- Players can submit up to 3 battle results for each category, each battle result must include the end battle window screenshot and the garage with the end battle pop-up message screenshot (see the example);
- The only change permitted to be implemented on screenshots is the concealment of gold, credits and free XP amount on the garage screenshot (see First Battle garage screenshot in the example).
- Training, company and clan wars battles won’t be considered;
- To take a screenshot press Ctrl+PrtScr. If your keyboard does not have such keys, you are advised to use any free software. They all are saved in the general in-game folder;
Example of a submission:
'Scouts' category
First battle, 1 killed, 2 damaged, battle won, status:dead :
Second battle, 0 killed, 2 damaged, battle won, status: survived :
Third battle, 3 killed, 1 damaged, battle won, status: survived :
- Players can participate in 2 different categories: ‘Death from above’ and ‘Confederate’;
- For the ‘Death from above’ Tier 3 – 6 vehicles are allowed (SU-26, Sturmpanzer II, Wespe, М37, SU-5, Grille, M7 Priest, SU-8, Hummel, M41, SU-14, S-51, GW-Panther, M12);
- The ‘Death from above’ category has following rules for earning the points:
Players receive two point for each killed and one point for each damaged enemy in the end battle window. This amount is doubled, if the player’s team wins and the player survives. Also participants receive an additional 9 points for the ‘Reaper’ achievement;
!!added on the 4th of August!!- The 'Death from above' will be judged in two sub-categories - Tier 3-4 SPG and Tier 5-6 SPG. Players may participate only in one. If you have already submitted results for the 'Death from above category with mixed vehicles, you enter the sub-category, in which you made more battles. Also you may resubmit 1 battle, which was made out of your sub-category. For this either change the post yourself or send me the request via PM with links on new battle included in it.
How does it works: For example, player A submitted 2 battles with Tier 3 SPG and 1 battle with Tier 5 SPG. He enters Tier 3-4 sub-category and he is able to replace battle with Tier 5 SPG by battle with Tier 3 SPG.
- For the ‘Confederate’ category Tier 4-7 Tank Destroyers are allowed (SU-85B, Hetzer, T-40, SU-85, Stug III, M-10 Wolverine, SU-100, JagdPz IV, M36 Slugger, SU-152 Jagdpanther, T25 AT);
- The ‘Confederate’ category has the following rules for earning points:
The battle result will be counted only if player receives ‘Confederate’ battle hero achievement. Each hit dealt by player’s tank counts as an MVP Point;
- All contest entries (battle results) are to be submitted before 23.59 UTC (11.59pm UTC) of the 4th of August;
- The same player can win in more than one category.
Winners in each category will be awarded 3,000 Gold, the second place will bring you 2,500 Gold and the third prize-holder will enjoy 2,000 Gold.
F.A.Q.
Q:How many vehicles can we submit?
A:You can submit up to 3 battles, so you can use up to 3 different vehicles. Or play all battles using just one.
Q:Does "hits" include killing blows as points as long as you still get Confederate? I mean, does, say, 2 kills and 6 damaged count as 8 points, or does it have to be 0 kills and 8 damages?
A:There is a 'Hit the Target' figure on the 'Personal Achievements' (2nd) post battle tab. Each hit listed there counts as a point.
Q:So i only have 1 SPG (SU-5), and i can only send 3 battle results? i should send 1,2 and 3 battles i participate or i can choose which to send? Like 1,4,7 or not?
A:The best ones you can get, doesn't need to be 3 in a row.
Q:What do you mean by 'getting Reaper achievment', do we need to get in the same match?
A:We mean get the 'Reaper' achievement for the vehicle.
Q:Why do players have to submit those screenshots by themselves?Considering how much info is stored in WOT database, isn't it more simple and reliable to track results with an additional database script?
A:Because finding more ratings than listed here is not possible atm. And we want to reward some different styles of gameplay. But we are planning to make a daily renewed and rewarded in-game ratings.
Q:And... since there is no way to prove you got reaper at the same level or under your current state of reaper... people who have't got the award before are at an advantage in thie competition. Complete bollocks really... who the hell is making these events up?
A:The major part is done be Vallter means me and I think it's fair, so new holders (with no skills, that greatly helps skilled players) will have a little advantage.
