I. Garrus' Calibrations Part 2 - Archangel (Gold) - redo

57:01 - DocSteely (264 221 pts) 10WS

I could probably shave more than 6min if I don't go for the grabs medal, but as I'm not confident that I'll get the 10WS...

P.S. I can finally understand why TTT proposed this and wanna thank her for it: it is very didactic.

As mentioned over here I had to use an alt account. Tell me if I have to change the ID in the submission.

So much this! Welcome back?

Don't be ridiculous Frank. I think many people before you did exactly the same thing, and no one asked them to change their ID or anything. Everyone knows it's your submission. And everyone should listen to some music while watching your videos. That german sounding Asari Never thought you could make Asari look not sexy in this game Also you retired your previous account, so what do you expect? At least once Origin is working as intended! I endorse this product and/or service. Karma for you!

The "German sounding" Turian is very nice and can shout that language at me anytime.

I have nothing further to contribute to this conversation.

Heyall!

Just chiming in to let you know that I've started to work on updating the Halls of Fame. I'll be doing it one HoF at a time, in the order they appear on the site. For now, only Tales from the Trenches is up to date. It might take me quite a while to finish this job with other HoFs. I apologize for making you wait half a year to have your awesomeness rightfully recognized and immortalized - and for asking you to wait even more. For anyone interested in how and why this near-hiatus happened, here's a wall-of-text with an explanation:

Since we moved to these forums and to the new Themed Challenges site, the job of keeping up the HoFs has become quite a bit more complicated than before. There are three parts of the process: 1) enter the submissions from this thread into a (sort of a) database that holds all the 6000+ challenge runs in a nice tabular format; 2) form the challenge- and series-completion leaderboards; and 3) copy the entries and leaderboards from the database to the site. Part 1 is something ex-Clusum has been dutifully doing all along behind the curtains. The database is actually up to date; only the site isn't. Part 3 is also not problematic - it's just tedious and time-consuming. But part 2, which was supposed to be my job, stands in the way. Not to tire you with all the technical details, it's a huge pain in the butt to calculate the cumulative times for teams and individuals, given all the re-runs, challenges that sometimes count and sometimes don't, and other intricacies that make it impossible to just put all the runs together and sum them up. I've been trying to work out a pretty sophisticated automated approach for this (which is why we stopped doing it manually about half a year ago), but this project turned out to be overly complex and ambitious and I recently decided to abandon it. So now I've worked out a simpler, non-fancy approach, but at the price of still doing part of the work manually (which is why the long-awaited updates will still take a while to roll out for all HoFs).

Long story short, we're back in business.   

That's good to hear.

I guess there is nothing we can do to help with the stuff you wrote, besides trying to submit in the proper format.

Week 15: Haestrom, Thermonuclear
Epic Legendary difficulty (does epic sound better indeed ?)
53:53 - Alfonsedode (366712 pts)

wanted to solo with the girl, and saw them solos in the HoF (not so many vids with her, tried but lost too much fps), so after few rage quit and fails ...

Now i call for support to finish whatever is left, on gold i guess ?
(Yes, full team challenges on gold)
Smehur , i guess the idea was doing full team on plat and solo on gold and whatever u feel like in between.
But please dont bother to calculate anything about that, it ll make some fun challenges to do !
