Highlighting the May 3337 Selfsame
Selfsame is, at least for me, a new way of conducting the climbs.
You are only allowed to use Mechs of one model, but it is up to you what model you want to use.
The Mech you put on Point is what you will be allowed to use, all other models are ignored when it comes to fighting.
As I was heavily engaged in the Multiverse, and didn't think my prospects were good anyway, I arranged to have some friends gather some footage.
Going through it at this time I see the winners were:
[Highest leveled Commander in Division]
- Div 1 [355] (21 Commanders): Dexter Berry, Warlock (Notos)(1m,24s)
- Div 2 [268] (16 Commanders): John T Mainer, Spirit of Bunny (Fext)(7h,8m)
- Div 3 [189] (11 Commanders): Robert C Goetz Sr, Death`s Collector`s (Boreas)(2h,23m)
- Div 4 [153] (20 Commanders): Terry Harper, Northwind Dragons (Boreas)(23m,36s)
- Div 5 [115] (32 Commanders): Scott Abbott, Northwind Dragons (Boreas)(2h,44m)
- Div 6 [93] (13 Commanders): SitYouLater, Steampunk Dragons (Boreas)(1d,2h)
- Div 7 [77] (33 Commanders): alex_smith, Emerald Dragons (Torrent)(18h,41m)
- Div 8 [57] (12 Commanders): Ken Freon, JP`s Rowdy Bunch (Dreadnought)(22h,50m)
- Div 9 [45] (12 Commanders): Canis, Night Hammers (Daemon)(21h,8m)
- Div 10 [32] (17 Commanders): George Woods, clown clan (Dilophos)(20h,31m)
- Div 11 [26] (21 Commanders): Brick House (Nephilax)(1d,4h)
- Div 12 [17] (19 Commanders): Dan Dcjw, FASA was Real (Nephilax)(23h,41m)
Total Contestants: 227, Total medals claimed: 168 (of 180 possible)
Compared to the Fides event the number of contestants fell a bit, we were down by 22 Commanders.
As the divisions were somewhat unbalanced, the biggest having almost as many as the 3 smallest combined, we ended up sending back a total of twelve Bronzes from 4 divisions for resmelting.
The most winning Mech this time was the Boreas. Grabbing 4 Golds it yet again proved why so many consider it THE top Mech. The only other model to gain multiple prizes was the much coveted Nephilax who won two. Using the Nephilax to win another seemed to work fine here.
The only crystal Mech to gain a Gold was the Daemon.
Only two Golds changed hands during the last half-hour, while the remaining ten Golds were held for more than two hours, two of them for more than a day
Number of medals held for more than 30 minutes in this event:
.............Silvers......Bronzes
Div 1 ....2 of 4.........9 of 10
Div 2 ....4 of 4.......10 of 10
Div 3 ....4 of 4.........6 of 6
Div 4 ....3 of 4.......10 of 10
Div 5 ....4 of 4.........7 of 10
Div 6 ....4 of 4.........8 of 8
Div 7 ....4 of 4.........8 of 10
Div 8 ....4 of 4.........7 of 7
Div 9 ....4 of 4.........7 of 7
Div 10 ..4 of 4.......10 of 10
Div 11 ..4 of 4.........9 of 10
Div 12 ..4 of 4.......10 of 10
As can be seen the action this time were all but over when the scramble began. Only 12 Medals in all changed hands, and we had seven tops without even a single successful attack.
Northwind Dragons became top clan in this event by being the only ones who claimed multiple Golds. They got top prizes on both K4 and K5.
Unaligned Brick House brought home Gold from K11.
None of the Fides winners continued on a winning streak.
