So, newbies have no chance at all..
You should have reset the levels also.

IMO.

Yeah it's on the table. We collected Doctrine layouts and companies people used initially a while back. So we definitely have the resources. Unfortunately we don;t have the manpower to update the doctrines, and deliver the new Launcher while implementing something along those lines. All in all I think the tradeoff has been fair. There are plenty of helpful people in this mod who will help you build a well rounded company and you learn more from do it yourself then pick and go.

Sorry I am confused.

Phase 1 of the contest.. friday to sunday of this week you play, players with most wins get a headstart for the reset on sunday night. And is this top 10 per side, or top ten period.

phase 2 of the contest.. for 4 weeks past this Sunday, the top vet in 10 random category (10 per side, 5 per side for 10 total?) will get another advantage?

It wouldn't be as helpful as you think, since its the reasoning behind the units you pick that needs to be learned, not the dragging of the mouse in the company screen.

I'll write a post about "The metagame" in the strategy forum since alot of new players to either RTS or EIRR dont seem to realize that building a company is very skewed towards deciding what the metagame is like, the rest is preference of units to act upon that metagame.

Newbies can play games JUST as fast as old players - how does this punish newbs?  Other than through a lack of understanding?

Its not wins.  Its total games played.  Everyone is on an even ground for this.
Top 10 per FACTION (read: NOT side), so top 5 from each side (US, CW, WM, PE)

For the first war, yes.  Again, just because a player plays ALOT, doesnt mean that his particular Vetted unit will be the random unit chosen for his faction - so all those Tiger Ace players might be fighting for nought while the one new player who vetted up his engineers gets the slot.

Phase 2 will have 5 from each faction (thats 10 per side) chosen from the unit table - randomly.
There will also be spot prize slots (also 5 per faction) given to new players and veterans alike - people will be notified in a post and via PMs.

Does that clear it all up?

Really impressive work guys. We should have a launch week where we all spam the shit out of forums and CoH ingame chat to publicise it. We also need it to be an ingame 'don't be an ass, don't stomp noobs week' so we dont scare off players. I suggest nazi style enforcement and week suspensions for stomping/ass behaviour or it will never work.

Yea, should be: over 69% win disqualifies you from any rewards, draws excluded. Thrown games get punished.
