Contest: Special Forces Month

In honor of the brave men and women combating terrorism and organized crime throughout the New Eden galaxy, we are proud to announce

SPECIAL FORCES MONTH

During February 2019, members of the High Sec Militia (either the coalition or the corporation) are eligible for billions of ISK in awards and prizes. Daily Awards will be presented throughout SPECIAL FORCES MONTH, and Event Prizes will be announced and presented 6 March 2019.

Daily Awards
Any given action will receive only the greatest of these, plus the MARSOC Bonus if eligible.

MARSOC Bonus: 10 million ISK

For the purposes of SPECIAL FORCES MONTH, a “terrorist ship” is any ship (excluding non-combat ships, corvettes, and capsules) piloted by a member of the CODE. alliance.

To be eligible for the Daily Awards, your actions must take place at a stargate, asteroid belt, or ice belt in any high-security system in New Eden, and must result in either:


  • a DD kill by inflicting at least 35% of the damage dealt to a terrorist ship and dealing the final blow; 
  • a Point kill by appearing on the killmail as the first (top-most) pilot to target a terrorist ship with a warp scrambler or disruptor, after which the terrorist ship is destroyed by any other player or NPC; 
  • an ECM kill by appearing on the killmail as the first (top-most) pilot to target a terrorist ship with an ECM jammer, after which the terrorist ship is destroyed by any other player or NPC; 
  • or a Logi "save mail" by repping an aggressed mining ship, after which the aggressing terrorist ship is destroyed by any other player or NPC. Logi submissions must also include a cut-and-paste from your game logs of the logi you provided showing at least one full cycle of positive (>0) reps.


Contact HSM Private Cochise Chiricahua with any suggestions, questions, or other comments.


Some details for SPECIAL FORCES MONTH:

Submissions. To enter your actions for the Daily Awards, forward the killmail (if available), a link to the verified zKillboard record, and all other required documentation to HSM Private Cochise Chiricahua in a single in-game e-mail within 24 hours after the action. One action per e-mail, please. All Daily Award winners will be entered into the contests for the Event Prizes.

Video Competition. Got a video of your SPECIAL FORCES MONTH kill? Include a link in your submission e-mail. After SPECIAL FORCES MONTH, all HSM pilots will vote to pick their favorite. Voting will be open from 1 March 2019 through 4 March 2019, one vote per HSM pilot. The winner will receive a prize of 250 million ISK (divided equally among all leaders in a tie). Videos must be in a common format, publicly available, and free of undesirable content (i.e., vulgarity, spam, viruses, ads, etc.)

Fine Print. All kills during SPECIAL FORCES MONTH are also eligible for rank advancement and the HSM’s other existing incentives (though they will require a separate submission by the normal routes). Contrary to existing incentives, SPECIAL FORCES MONTH does not consider the value of terrorist ships destroyed, only their quantity. Award totals will be grouped only by HSM pilot. If you control multiple HSM pilots, you may not combine them to be eligible for greater incentives. HSM Private Cochise Chiricahua is the sole and final judge of all decisions related to SPECIAL FORCES MONTH. There is no appeal from his decisions.

Please submit all correspondence regarding SPECIAL FORCES MONTH to HSM Private Cochise Chiricahua by in-game e-mail. We welcome any and all hints, tips, suggestions, and other comments.

o7,
Thomas en Chasteaux,
Commander, High Sec Militia.
