Gratz to the winners...
Side note: I didn't get one global but my return rate was 110% I consider this a win!

Infinity01 · Jun 13, 2012

Seriously, their approach was the most "fair" and if there weren't confusion about the possible meanings of "single highest loot" it would be applauded as such. It makes sense that someone with three high loots have a better chance to win than someone with one.

However, they need to publish their methods in advance of events so that the fairness of the approach rather than misunderstandings of terminology can be appreciated. I am fully on board with the complaints that they repeatedly fail to explain until after.

Congrats to the winners. I finally got an Argo Scout global last night (60 peds or so) after killing about 4500, which is much less than many competitors who didn't global. It seems to me that the ire is comically misplaced here: if people are going to BBQ MA, it should be for the fact that the same avatars hit several high globals/HOFs on the tiny argos in a one-day period than that they allow those all to appear in their list. Sure, the next weekend it would have been different names, but it's the clustering of these things that creates problems repeatedly (looting multiples of a nice item drop in short time, multiple ubers in a few minutes, etc.) But that's old news. Carry on with the torches and pitchforks...

I agree with the red text above in the quote by Doer in PCF!

Initially, like others, I felt that the way MA did the list, and awarded the particiapnts was wrong. That perception was a result of traditional way of looking into it... a system we all have become familiar with. The so called "common sense". Yes the way they handled it was against common sense, and most players (including myself) felt that it was wrong...

However, after reading the above post... now I feel that MA took the fairest approach. I'm not sure if it is an incidental outcome or a deliberate thinking on the part of MA.

Personally I think it has 2 significant impact....
1. It'd encourage players to hunt more...
2. and because of the uncertainty of the 3 positions..25th, 50th, and 100th.. the odds of winning would be higher with a player with the highest number of globals..

I really think this is far better than the traditional approach...

I just wanted to speak my mind .... and resorted to this forum.. as I'm banned from the other forum for 6 months :). (lol, actually I'm now enjoying my time better after getting the forced vacation by 711)...
