The end of November is the end of the Atlantic Hurricane Season. If you live near an ocean, you have probably been affected by a Hurricane, a Cyclone or a Typhoon. Now is you chance to fight back! To counter the speed of the wind, we must play the Speediest of Games - 1 Minute Rounds.

Gonzalo was the largest of the Atlantic Hurricanes. It started in the Caribbean and cut a large swath of the Atlantic, eventually sending rain and wind to the United Kingdom.
Marie, the largest of the Pacific Hurricanes, hit Mexico and California.
Super-Typhoon Vongfong caused $48 million in damages, wreaking havoc in the Phillippines, Japan and Taiwan.
Very Severe Cyclonic Storm Hudhud caused damage in India, specifically Andrha Pradesh.

FAQs

Who can play a Challenge?
All challenges are open to everyone, although freemiums may have a problem meeting the game load.

How do we join?
All you have to do is a)create games that meet the requirements or b)join games that meet the requirements. They can be private, public or even tournament games. Team CC is not creating any games, the whole thing is done by users. There is a game-join link at the top of the first post.

What are the prizes?
For reaching the Challenge Goal you get one of the rarest medals on the site, the Challenge medal. Challenges only come around once, if you miss it, you won't ever have another chance.
Image
For scoring the most points in the Challenge: 1 Green Conquer Star
Image
For those who finish in 2nd-5th place in the Challenge and achieve the Goal: 1 Blue Conquer Star
Image

When do I get my prize?
Soon after you meet the requirements!

How is deadbeating dealt with?
Please report deadbeats in your games, I will do a random check. Inventory items will stay, but medals might be taken away if the deadbeats points do not allow for a medal.

Rulings
1. Deadbeats will have entry points stripped.
2. Wins by round limit count as normal wins.
3. Games can always have round limits but they never need to.
4. Inventory relating to the challenge will vanish at the end of the year.
5. Bot games do not score tokens.

I'm not convinced this is a great idea. The "improved" servers still create lag for quite a number of us, so lots of speed games do not appeal. Plus, 3+ player games w/ 1min turns? Lots of deadbeats incoming.

Plus, again, whoever spams the most games and wastes the most time gets the best reward. Wonderful!

Good luck.

Tokens are awarded as follows:
20 points - Bronze Token - Winning a Freestyle Game
30 points - Silver Token - Winning a 3-5 player game
70 points - Gold Token - Winning a 6+ player game


a 6 player freestyle game would give me 90 points?

You don't need to win each token right?
And will we get an extension since no one did it yet?

You do not need one of each. We are busy working on the December challenge, so November will be pushed aside as a failed concept.

ok but i still get the medal if I am able to reach 500 right?

Btw I think the concept was good, maybe just lacking advertisement.

And maybe games should've been automatically created because most of the time clicking on "Join the game" gave empty page.

Also it states that it is open for everyone... But you must have a Premium membership to play the game... So it's Not open to everyone :(
