Fortune:Just a thought
"Every obstacle in your path is also an opportunity. Conquer all and be the soul victor."
Too punny?
In the real event itself, players are free to pick whichever element they want.What happens if there are 15
players and only 2-3 
players? I ask because in any siege system, or any form of group PvP, is going to be at a very serious disadvantage, regardless of allies.
Also, I wondered what that Poseidon is doing in his Deck when he has no chance of getting anyI believe this is the only FG that has Poseidon in it to win. Notice every other rare weapon is winnable in an upped form. If not for Neptune, there'd be no upped Poseidon to win. Just an observation. Perhaps plug it a FG that can actually use Posiedon or make a FG that can use?
and 
? Also, keep in mind other FGs run weapons they can't use. Take Seism for instance. He runs Pulvy, but doesn't have the gravity to use it.
I agree with Will 100% in that people should be motivated out of a simple desire to help rather than winning a competition of some sort. However, I don't see anything wrong in awarding those that are sincere in their efforts to help either. And, if a little added motivation kick starts others into helping, they may see the real benefit of helping themselves over time. Sadly, though idealistic, a notion of helping just to help isn't always going to work with many people. They need more to feel accomplished. And for the record, I could care less if there is a reward or not. I'd do it anyway. I am confident in my personal knowledge that the world as it is needs outside motivation from time to time to do charitable work. Take tax breaks from donating for example. I'd heavily argue that there would be less charitable donations if there were no tax breaks in it for those that donated. Keep in mind, those that receive charity from donors aren't too concerned that those that did the donating will get a tax break. They're just happy to get anything at all.Out of curiosity, what about people that work hard to recruit only to have that new recruit passed on to someone else? I hang out on Kong quite a bit and try to shift people over here when I can. Most of the time I tend to build a rapport with those people and it would be sort of awkward to build that rapport only to have someone else finish what I started. If it's a matter of abuse for awards that's an issue, why not make it so in order for new recruits to count towards the reward those new recruits have to reach the "jr." status of at least 30+ posts?I'd like to avoid a situation where people recruit their friends and neighbors as Apprentices just to get reward icons. This project should not be about the icons, it should be about helping people. Having the icons is just something extra.
But if it would motivate Mentors more, we could always have a system where you get "points" for both recruiting and teaching the Apprentice. So even though you don't get to mentor that newbie you found, you'd still get some points. Generate enough points and you get an award.
Though I can understand the idea of removing incentive, and in a lot of ways I agree, having some sort of recognition is important to. There should be something in place that recognizes the efforts by members to help newer players to become a part of this community and as long as there are set parameters in place for any reward, abuse should be kept to a minimal or nonexistant.If it's a matter of abuse for awards that's an issue, why not make it so in order for new recruits to count towards the reward those new recruits have to reach the "jr." status of at least 30+ posts?or just remove the 'incentive' altogether
last thing i want to see is this turning into competition of some sort where people collect badges (similar to kongregate's)
we already have tourneys and competitions for that sort of thing, this should be completely volunteerish (completely forgot the exact word for it) as it could be similar to staff positions at this here forum
*cough* forums *cough*So how am I suppose to do that?next time you'd tell people you're banned from chat....i haven't played my match with appawesome BUT i've some points:1. Well, did you talk in chat, where I am banned?
