Actually Abele you were one of the original designers for Quicksilver Upgrades which stretched 34 contests although according to my count you failed to participate in 4 of the challenges. So you finished with 50 overall points which is good for third place when considering point totals.

You can look at numbers a lot of different ways though and argue you had greater success. Who had the most design points? Who won the most contests? Points per contest they participated in....

Ice Hellion scored a total of 30.5 overall points finishing ahead of canon which retained 30 spots. You have to remember though Ice didn't jump into the game until challenge 15 - the Stormcrow. Also he failed to take part in two others after that meaning he tried his hand only in 18 contests.

Getting shut out on one contest doesn't mean much, Ice Hellion. It's happened to most, if not all of us, at one point or another.

G will be our ‘Gun’ configurations sporting all those Ultra/AC/10 carriers we saw during this contest. These medium sized and medium ranged ballistic weapons were a good fit with the Diashi which is more suited to low heat producing guns rather than lasers. With only a single Ultra AC/10 masterarminas D had a little bit of everything with a Gauss, two ER Larges, two ER Mediums, and an ER Small all linked to a seven ton Targeting Computer. While more accurate than its competitors here it was also a lighter hitting model which is the reason for its last place finish here. Two models (Bradshaw C and Abele B) paired two Ultra AC/10s with two ER PPCs for a pretty effective variant. While Bradshaw C featured mobility I was surprised to find that the heat spike out of Abele B which was equipped with an ER Large wasn’t that bad at all. It was the four Ultra AC/10 carriers from drakensis D and Bradshaw F that I found were the best. Ultimately, I liked the single added Double Heat Sink and twenty extra shots which Bradshaw F featured over drakensis version. Capable of running and double firing all of its Ultra ACs for more than a dozen turns this variant is badass. Additionally, it has two ER Mediums and an ER Small for close in support should it become necessary. Point two to Bradshaw!!

Bradshaw F is a pulse laser boat with 4 LPL and 8 MPL, supported by 3 ERSL (two rear-firing) and 20 DHS.  Or did you mean my (Master Arminas) F Configuration, which IS a four UAC-10 gunboat?  ;)

Don't worry I am doing fine. My only "problem" is having lost Takiro in my fluff.

Actually Ice you didn't lose all that much. You participated in 18 contests and ended up with 6.5 fluff points plus you dominated completely when it came to the Linebacker and Turkina not only winning the fluff but earning the InnerSphere naming rites too. Not that shabby!

I meant here for the Dire Wolf.
