Hey all. Noticed a lot of peeps missed out on a Bismarck due to other commitments (don't worry know the feeling).

 

Just recently ran a contest for a Kaga (congrats again to the winner). Didn't get much interest.  http://forum.worldofwarships.com/index.php?/topic/126631-1st-sumkum-contest/

 

Would many in the community be interested in a contest for a Tirpitz? Cheers.

dude i would LOVE to win a tirpitz, and she is a solid ship for community giveaways and contests, so their will be lots of interest in doing whatever task you set out for her.

 

that said i think the main reason you didn't get much interest for the kaga was the qualification you set out with, they were just odd for most people. and restricted for others.(i would've partaken, but i don't play my carrier like at all, and i don't play my dd all that much)

Normally I would, but I just was gifted one yesterday. XD Still, if you hold a second place prize I'll definitely compete, assuming I have the required botes.:izmena:

​I think you're spot on there. Perhaps the prize and the contest itself alienated the bulk of the community. Actually would love to hear suggestions as to what might be appropriate and be attainable by most out there willing to participate. By all means fire away!

​Also Duke I saw your Fletcher submission, thanks for that, and just wondering would a dubloon pack would be ok for a prize? Do appreciate all those that get in there and indulge in a bit of team play!

 

I thought people would jump at a Kaga but I think people aren't as CV oriented as I am :teethhappy:

focus on a general play style that supports the Tirpitz, like best brawl gameplay, or best aggressive bb gameplay

​Yes a nice idea. I'll get the comp going in a day or so. I'll try to orient it around brawling with close quarters/ramming achievements plus damage and general good team play in the lower tier BBs. Someone let me know if there are better ideas.

Sure thing! You're the one running the contest.:) Though I can say, a prize just for competing will practically guarantee my participation in all other contests you run...:hiding: #dukeisagreedyslob

I would be interested if I could get the Atlanta instead. Although I'm perfectly able to pretend that I won a Tirpitz! They will never know!!!

 

Now being serious, maybe you should consider the Scharnhorst? I believe she's better at making credits and that's a big factor for people who don't buy ships or premium (A.K.A. the main demographic of those contests).

You could go for highest number of secondary hits in a single battle in X ship/X tier.

Yeah I would love a Tirpitz considering it would be similar to my Gneisenau with guns, toros, and secondaries. Plus since I do not have a high tier premium Ship yet it would be nice to have a ship to train Captains on and make credits.
