Level 20 challenge

[MountainBlade]

As soon as you hit level 20 you retire your character and post the stats to compare with others. I'll add new entries to the leaderboard as they are submitted.

This is the basic scoring.

Can't we do, like, a lvl 35 challenge or something? Because that's about what I'm up to in my 1.003 character and I don't really feel like starting a new one..

If you retire, can you never get back to adventuring again? Too scared to press "retire", lol.

You're supposed to start a new character
Level 15 then? 10? That shouldn't be too much of a time investment.

First you get the score menu and you still have the option to go back. If you confirm you just get the credits and a farewell message.

Bah, I think I'll pass.

And the saved game will still be there and perfectly loadable, so you lose nothing anyway.

Did that text mention a church in Tihr? There's religion in Calradia?

Would it be fair to suggest that anyone joining this should have similar settings, damage, AI etc

The score calculation formula already takes that into account.

 

[thedudee95]

how about a level 30 or 35 challenge? Most peopel are over level 20 by now right?

That.

 

[Havoc134]

I think he means start a new character just to get the highest end score, ie. get all lords to like you etc.

 

[mrcrotch]

Naw **** that. My first idea was final.

I'd just like to see some of the different retirement messages. The best one I got had me retiring and buying a farm and attracting local women or something. I've only gone to the retirement screen a few times, since I generally only remember it after reading a thread that mentions retiring.

Export the character first, or best option is use Save As and make a different save file.

 

[MountainBlade]

Well, if people don't want to start a new character for a contest it could be higher level. Level 40? It would be a running leaderboard then of course.

Also, is everyone happy with the default scoring or should we take other things into account?

I own Halmar, and had 40000 denars when retiring.

It said about me buying many shops in Halmar and becoming a rich merchant for the rest of my life. Nice way to retire.

Aw, what's the big deal? Doesn't take THAT long to reach lvl.20!
I'll make a new guy and post when I reach 20, just to get the ball rolling. Even though I'm not that skilled and won't score high (strange, since I started playing around .731 and have been playing every version and mod since).
It sounds like fun.
