    Great comp and great idea to make it arkadia prints only.

    I'm not a big fan of the highest loot wins event style either, but it does mean the comp goes on till the very last click instead of possibly ending after 3 days when the loot drops.

    Another fine example of how to do cooperation between experts at what they do.

    Hehe I see the "Vaction" excuse is in full effect for MA to NOT be working on stuff. Do they seriously close the entire office and everyone goes away on holiday at the same time? Any other buisness even during the Christmas season only lets a certain % of their workforce take time off.

    It makes a lot of sense for a software development team to all take a break at once. That's not the same as closing the whole office.

    Well that depends on the country and the nature of your business. I have worked for several employers where I was required to take party of my annual leave between xmas and new year.

    as I understand the rules now - this will count.

    If Cyrus wants me to - I can put a scoreboard up on ET.

    For now in the lvl 1-4 category: Augis Auktuma Tumas is in the lead with a 1949 PED Corvus Thigh Guards (M,L).

    In the lvl 5-10 category: camille alain prince is in the lead with a 174 PED Flash Suppressor.

    :)

    Hi Afdemon, with the help of Starfinder, I've just added the leaderboard on the original post/thread. The leaderboard will refresh itself every 30 mins, so you will be ensured of quick updates 24 hours a day until the event ends. :eek:

    The way ET is build any new items needs 4 globals to be shown in any lists - so once there has been 3 more globals on the thigh guards, they should be in the list, and thus - on the leaderboard.

    If this is a major concern, I can change that code for new items while this event is ongoing.
    However, on the admin page, this limitation is not there so the file/list I will provide Arkadia with in the end will have "unique" items as well.

    Say what? The single global recorded by the tracker on ROCKtropians showed up today after some database processing I guess.
    And 4 globals is a lot for certain low level mobs/items, why 4? For verification? Isn't it enough verification that more then one client sends in the global data?

    *now we are getting technical* All items are dynamically added to the Entropia Tracker system by the clients. This means that malicious data can be entered - if the client mock about with the client and injecting false data into the chat.log. This is why there needs to be 4 separate recordings of "crafting items". Minerals and Mobs are added manually to the system - which is why they do not need 4 globals to be shown. (I trust my self)..
