    @aishi: It's the overall. As I mentioned in the previous post, it's the highest personal rating. So from all received submissions, the highest 10 personal ratings will win.


    @Kawaikunai: People with highest ranks can't send their score now either. There's a period of submission and anything outside that period is not valid. Besides, even if they could, I'm sure in one week their score would not be the same, so the submitted score won't match the real one, and won't be valid either.

    Hey again!


    @VoodooAngel: as I said, I will include your feedback for next events. Maybe discussing them with the players before could be something to try. However, the whole idea behind the events (at least how I see it) is that we prepare something for you to enjoy and have fun. For me it would be really weird to say... "Hey guys, you want to have an event? Take care of it"; and it would also remove the "surprise" effect. Of course I admit that there's a lot of space for improvement, (I yet have to get used to the way TERA works) and that's why I think your feedback is really valuable, same as ideas or suggestions of possible activities. I'll try to adapt the things to the way the community wants them, after all, these things are for you :)


    @Sane: What counts is the "Personal Rating" (the one displayed on your Profile under the CS battleground), I'm not sure if that's the same as "ELO".
    Basically, the 10 players with the highest "Personal Rating" submitted will win.


    Wfight: The score you submit should be the same you have when we check the mails. That's why the sumbission period is set during the last day. So you should send the mail when you make your last battleground before the maintenance.

    Of course Corsair's Stronghold is a team challenge, and I think that it would have been really cool if there was some sort of team competition rather than an individual contest.


    This was my first intention, I wanted to reward team work. However, I found myself in front of some technical limitations and in the other hand, how unlikely it would be for people to play during a week with exact same team. :(


    About the score, it's the highest, not the difference between what you had and what you improve. I'm sorry , it seems I didn't make it really clear.

    Hello!


    Before I go on answering, I'll "introduce" myself. Those who watched the live stream some weeks ago, know me already... For those who didn't: I'm SiS and I'm the "social media girl" as Atmorph likes to call me :miffy: . I started working for TERA as community engagement manager & social media manager, and thus I'm trying to prepare events and other activities such as the live streams for the community (btw, next live streams are being planned already!).


    I started planning this event some time ago (with the awesome help from Atmorph - sorry I torture you!), unfortunately the first concept I wrote about it was technically impossible so I had to modfy it several times and come with different alternatives to make it happen. Now reading your comments I see some points I didn't see before, so I thank you for the feedback.
    This one of the first "big" events I planned for you guys, so I see it as a test run right now. With your feedback, I'll improve the next concepts to make the events more interesting. :)


    So, to answer some the questions/comments:

    ill ask something, there are 12 servers, so there 60 ppl get rewards ?


    No, there are only 10 winners out of the whole community.

    Did you even reset the ranking for this?


    No, the scores aren't reset. The event was supposed to start with the update, but as I mentioned before I had to modify the concept and it got postponed. However, I didn't want to delay it any loger until the scores were reset.
    It shouldn't be impossible to get a hold on those prizes. But I'll keep this in mind for next events for sure.

    I have a question regarding this event, how exactly does seem format the e-mail?


    The format should be...
    Subject: 1000
    (example as if you had 1000 points of personal rating... in your case from the screenshot it's 1381)
    Body:
    *char name
    *server
    *Language version


    Though, keep in mind that the scores should be sumbitted between the period mentioned in the announcement!


    Same for the other comments about the server pools, I will also consider differences between PvP/PvE servers for next time and make a division on them whenever it's possible.



    Cheers!
