Would YOU like to earn millions of credits on a single kill?
Do YOU have what it takes to shut one of the loudest mouths on 100?
Can YOU help me earn the easiest money of my life??
Then buy into the Kill Smittens pool today!
One entry costs 1 million credits, and if you can kill me in a straight 1v1 you earn the whole pool.
Enter today!
------------------------------------------------------------------
The current pool is: 2,000,000 (TWO MILLION credits!)
Challengers
- Rin Ganborro
- Boda Shandis
- Mistena Kosmel
- antibody
- Brave souls who tried & died before I started recording (please let me know if you would like your name added; just msg me or post here!)
Victors
- Electricity
------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclaimers:
- The Boda Rule: the challenge ends immediately upon the challenger's death. If the challenger kills me and dies in my explosion or pre-death-shot, it is a push and will be settled with a straight rematch (same ships, same equipment) at a mutually agreed upon date
- Any interruptions of the fight will be met with a restart or refund, at the challenger's discretion
- You MUST formally request a challenge for it to be official. Just sending me credits then shooting, or otherwise trying to claim a challenge when I did not officially accept or deny it will not receive prize money
- Some specially selected pilots will be given permission to buy more than one entry (still at 1 million credits per entry)
- You must pay your entry fee before any damage is dealt, or any damage-dealing shots have been fired
- I reserve the right to decline any challenge at any time, though I'll do my best to accommodate anyone who wants to play... unless you and I both know that you're going to kill me and it won't even be close :P If you are one of this very small and elite group of people, I'll throw your name up here too under a special "Too Elite to Play" category
- The "Current Pool" counter in this post is kept up-to-date *including* the prospective entry fee of the next challenger that could win it
- Be quiet, LeberMac

I'm guessing Nahin and I are both banned :P
You'd have to make a formal request to find out!
Apparently I've already killed you at least twice so i'll have to pass up this opportunity.
I would however suggest you make this competition a donation of trident parts to see if you can get up to a complete trident.
Definitely ban Nahin, he hacks. Also ban Kierky, he lags.

TRS you are WELCOME to try! In fact I'll even let a smart guy like yourself purchase multiple entries!! Although that does remind me I'll have to add one more rule: if the challenger runs or calls in back-up before the duel ends, they forfeit their entry fee.
Also, I would love to extend a special invitation to "hacking" or "laggy" players to try the challenge; I can and have vouched for many VERY good PvPers who have been accused of hacking/lagging by cowardly Serco. If antibody and the other supposed "hackers" fall to my Posis just as easily as A-Dawg and company, it prompts the question... how could a less-than-elite pilot like myself best a hacker/lagger unless they WEREN'T in fact hacking/lagging, but were actually just too good for the cowardly loudmouthed Serco that would rather make excuses than learn to fly????
ANY pilot who has evidence of being called a lagger/hacker by TRS or other silly reds get 25%-OFF entry fees! That's right, it only costs you 750k to enter the pool AND be vindicated from these tired overblown accusations
Any pilot even half as experienced as myself knows how disadvantageous lagging is, and how laughably bitter claims of hacking sound. SURELY if TRS or others believe that players can "hack" their way to PvP victory, he would have brought it to the devs' attention? They have always been fantastically quick about stomping out any real exploits, so anyone remotely aware can be sure that if there were something even slightly substantial to these cowardly claims, it would be resolved swiftly.

@TRS; lol :)
Anyway, I guess all members of [ITAN] are half-off since even I have been accused of hacking by serco nationalists (never by TRS that I recall). So if the guy with the worst kill ratio in the guild stands accused...

@smittens
A fine idea for activity
A fine idea for activity
No... surely not Harpo!!? What Serco would stoop so low as to call you a hacker??
[edit]And I guess this means, you officially WON'T be making a challenge TRS? I can't say I'm surprised, but I am sad that the wider universe is going to miss out on what was sure to be a lot of very creative excuses as you pop.
(Or at least, some very creative insults as you run from said popping and have to endure a Smittens-signature verbal beatdown)

The devs weren't quick to address the (afaik) still present mass hack.
Could you link to the relevant Suggestions thread so I can learn more / bump it if necessary?
I seem to recall it was you making the excuses when I bested you previously but it's quite Itani of you to create an overblown and elaborate structure to attempt to position yourself as a prestige fighter.
If you were actually any good you'd just explode people whenever you please until you gained such a notorious reputation that you couldn't avoid instances where people would take you on desperately trying to beat you for a little piece of glory.
Of course that's exactly what happened when you took me on last time. I beat you twice in single combat and then my buddies decided they weren't willing to let me have all the fun so you died a few more times to Sanan and BigNasty while you yelled at them to leave you alone so you could try and pick up the broken pieces of your pride. Which is undoubtedly why you are so desperate for it this time.
Instead of being a pathetic duelling metrosexual coward. Go and kill some TGFT or some carebear Itani until people actually fear you, then perhaps you'll get the requisite amount of action you apparently desire.

According to the thread, it's half-fixed. You can no longer decrease your mass below your baseline "empty with gear equipped" mass, but you can still nullify the mass of your cargo (so basically, it's only useful to people hauling cargo). Incarnate has also stated in chat that they now have a system in place to monitor things and that they haven't seen anybody fiddling with their mass since they started monitoring it.

According to multiple observations in game, it's not fixed at all.
Thanks Pizza, I'll bump that right now.
@greenwall: If it is indeed not fixed at all, that would be bad news! Serco don't need any actually half-credible excuses! Could you post some instructions detailing how to replicate the bug, or at least describe instances when you've seen it in action?
@TRS: I'm so sorry to have actually offended you! This is just a video game, and there's really no need to get this wrapped up in/grumpy at it.
As I've stated between 3 and 30,000 times since returning to this crazy universe, I just want to have some people to fight! To go pew pew with. That was the original intention of the Pool; since you've done such a good job at raising a crop of Serco that hide in stations until they have a large numbers advantage, it takes a significant cash offering to draw out any potential combat. The really ironic thing is that if I weren't any good, I know I'd have you friends chasing after me all day. Buuut since they need 2 or 3 backup pilots to feel like they have a chance (which isn't true you silly Serco! I'm not that good!! Just, better than average, and probably better than you :P) it's very tough for even a mediocre pilot, let alone someone like me, to find battles (against reds). As it is, the only times I've seen ONE in the last week (of very active play, no less!) was Dirty oRe trying to afk-kill me.
ANYWAY, TRS, since you seem to actually be a bit frazzled, I'd like to extend an offer just for you. I know from personal experience, back when I was a young teenager too, just how easy it is to get wrapped up in (and ACTUALLY angry at) this silly universe. But that's not healthy!! So to help you out, and incentivize the easiest kill & 22 million of your life, I'd like to offer:
FREE ENTRY FEE for your first Kill Smittens challenge!
Yes that's right, for a limited time you can try and take home the 22 million pool FOR FREE!!
(Note that this only applies to TRS and other lurkers, because it's getting a little sad how much he posts in the forums for an MMORPG he doesn't play. In any case friend, before your inevitable reply, please do me a favor: take a breath, think about some non-video game things, and then just TRY and tell me this doesn't look like the stupidest thing you've actually gotten upset about :P)

Welcome to the Role Playing forum smittens. Apparently you're too old to be here.
Welcome to the Role Playing forum smittens. Apparently you're too old to be here.
Is this RP? I couldn't tell. Your posts in Suggestions are the same stuff.
Ah my mistake TRS though I'm glad to see I was wrong :) Although as arf says, it's hard to tell what is RP and what is you when your role so closely matches the way you behave out of character!
In the meantime, I must express on behalf of the Kill Smittens Pool Foundation: Anyone not named Espionage or TheRedSpy must display sufficient amounts of running, excuse-making, and general-ninniness to prove themselves as the real TRS and make a claim for the free entry fee.*
*Poor showings in 1v1 combat may also qualify, on a case-by-base basis
