I'm not in any guild, so I don't really have to pick sides on this one. Good luck to everybody!

True, smaller guilds do have a chance to do very well, if the guild is dedicated enough. But bigger guilds do have the numbers game, doesn't guarantee them a higher spot, but it certainly helps.

This is something that even beginning players can participate in within their guild...small, large or in between. Good Luck to all!!!

I see the Graveyard in PR filling up fast.... Brilliant, guild loyalties split again... GO MY GUILDIES! While you all do this, I'll be questing.

Ahoy PartnersNCrime can I please join your guild?

How do you find out who has the most?
The leaderboards are down / do not work at least when I checked Wednesday morning so how do we keep track?

Either D has found a way and is too lazy to fix them, or they have men who work 24/7 to keep count, or they are trying out a new system....

How do they cheat??

Jello743 · #28 08-11-2010, 04:43 PM

they cheat by using programs or using invincibility

Doesn't seem to be fully. I was in my ranking spot yesterday (shall remain disclosed!) for a few good hours, but the leaderboards said I only killed 160 enemies.. I could do that in 10 minutes, let alone a few hours!

And now that I think about it, I'm start to get rankers remorse already. After all, it isn't what you would particularly call... fun. I'll still do it, just don't expect to find me all day blasting away at those guys :P

***Sven Osymthe*** · #30 08-11-2010, 04:54 PM

Invincibility doesn't really matter for an event like this. People cheat in a lot of different ways during these events, or when ranking in general. Can't really explain it better, as it's against the rules.

The leader boards aren't working right now. You probably defeated 160 enemies the last time it worked successfully. Buck is listed with 2k enemies.. he wasn't even online (long enough to get that much). That's one of the reasons I didn't do a thing

They really need to fix it though. Although, with the leader boards being broke, I haven't heard about anyone cheating (at least not as much). That's the only positive for them being down.. although some people enjoy ranking, no reason to take it from them..
