OVERVIEW

Welcome to my latest report as Deputy Grand Master. There've been 7 CoF handed out this week. The November results for the Clan competitions were announced by CON SW Earnim Branet last week and the medals were allready handed out. Congratulations to all medal grabbers. The November evaluation round is running. All evaluations have at least BTL, CON and DGM comments in. Expect the results and your well deserved activity rewards in your inboxes soon! Sentinel BTL SWL Tygra ShadowClaw has created 2 new competitions for his Battle Team. Go check the competitions section for details.

COF AWARDING RULES

From now on, for all PvP game platform eligible for a CoF the following rules need to be met to qualify for a CoF: You need to be in the winning Team of a PvP match. In addition to that you need to be - the Top 1 placed player according to your score (or EFF, or what ever the game calls it) in matches with 3 or less players in each team - among the Top 2 placed players according to your score in matches with 4 or 5 players in each team - among the Top 3 placed players according to your score in matches with 6 or more players in each team. In cases where there are more than one player with the same score, the placements among the Top 2 or Top 3 will be determined as in sports events. Here some examples of what that means for CoF: A, B, C, D and E are members of the winning team in a PvP match. A has a score of 1,000, B and C both have a score of 900, D has 850 and E 800. This means that A is on first place, B and C share place 2, D is on place 4 and E on place 5 for his team. If A, B or C were all DB members, only A might get a CoF for this match. In this case A, B and C would be eligible for a CoF. If there was an additional player F on that team with a score of 1,000, just like A, the situation would be as follows, A and F would share the first place, B and C would share the third place, D would be on fifth place and E would end up being on sixth place. If A, B, C and F would be DB members, all 4 would be eligible for a CoF. Everyone that wants to be rewarded with a CoF for a PvP match needs to submit his screenshots for his CoF eligible matches to me and cc the P:DGM, DA Silvius. We'll handle the CoF rewarding and will keep track of the handed out CoF for competitions and statistic purposes. It might be wise to cc your CON and your BTL in these submissions, so they'll be aware of your activities. Remember to send your screens in time (no later than a week after the match) and to submit only CoF eligible screens! In discussions with the GM in the past he mentioned more than once that submitting ineligible screens might be regarded as cheating and punished accordingly.
