Topic: New Feature: Daily Challenges

12856 seconds is just under four hours, not four days.

  I am teh dum.  If math was my thing, I think I'd be a lot further along than I am. 

ZC, you were right, points were racking for you. Fixed that bug so I'm sending 300MP your way as a thanks.

Thanks Boss!     As mentioned, great (addictive) game you have going there. 

Question:

I was on track towards the Employee of The Month for playing every day but I don't know if I missed it one day (out of town on family gig).  There is still a number in the filler bar (21 / 30 (70%) ) so does that mean I didn't blow it?  I would think it would dump to zero if I had?

IDK if you blew it or not  but it would not go to zero if you did, my counter for the consecutive successful missions has been at 53/100 for about 5 days now.

Perhaps this is something that should be changed mike.

Now that you mention it, mine has been stuck at 47/50 for quite some time

No. It means that your highest record is 21 days in a row. The same idea applies for consecutive failed/passed missions. If you want to see your current record, then you may view it in your PER.

43 Insurgencies Lowered: 467

43% or 43 AORs?

43% or 43 AORs?

I think it's 43%. Too bad I'm not still on my first insurgency, or I would try and get that one.

I managed to nab the equipment proficiency level one, though. 1258MP feels nice.

I think I'll skip the insurgency one as well, 14 CR per insurgency test is pretty pricey. The equipment and CE one will be easy though.

[Mike Bobbitt]

Yep, it's insurgency %, as has already been figured out. There's only so much room for text there!

175 msn proficiency: what does that mean?

[crooks.a]

175 msn proficiency: what does that mean?

I think it's increasing your mission proficiency by 175%, so every time you do a mission, it is much like training on equipment.

175 mission proficiency would be nearly two mission levels (so level 5 to level 7, for example)

I do, however, think that reward is significantly more difficult when compared to the equipment proficiency (which just got me +210CR!!!!!), since doing a mission generally costs more CR.

[Oh No a Canadian]

mission proficiency; you know the points you get when you successfully complete a mission and at 100 the mission 'levels up,' get 170 of those.

[crooks.a]

I think

I can confirm this now, as I just got the challenge incentive.

It is the percentage for completing a mission. Just do around 20 or so missions (go back to Canada...) and you should be able to get it.

I can repel a sustained attack, but I just failed Maple Guardian?  Even electronically, Wainwright blows

I just failed DAG.
Did I spill ink all over my file or something? How is that even possible? 

[Oh No a Canadian]

But these mission are "Guaranteed" how can we fail them?

Welcome to the army.

[NavyShooter]

You slept in and missed your flight...

You had to run to the heads and lost your spot in the DAG line-up...

You handed your paperwork to an incompetent Div Officer, who lost it on his desk for 3 months....

Your Elcan went down on you and you dumped your PWT...

You tripped during the run-down on your PWT and clogged your barrel....(gopher hole)

All kinds of reasons why your DAG process or an ex could get pooched...

I just did the 6 equipment proficiency levels  challenge, giving me  1000 points, then I bought 50 points of stuff in the QM and I lost the 1000 points for some reason. Could anyone explain this?

I don't see you being awarded the milpoints at all. Is your FB account linked to Army.ca?

[Captsapper]

Mike, Great work.

This adds a whole new layer of strategy to the game.  If you are careful about your Milpoints and the Medal incentives you can quickly stack some incentives in order to raise your stats.  Today, I decided to focus on the challenges in order to get over the 5000 level in Milpoints that gave me the incentive to get +10 max CR, by doing that it pushed my Max CR over 100 allowing me to purchase the incentive for +10 Attention to detail.  Now I am within reach of the next level and should be able to level up later this evening once the new challenges come out.  This new feature just makes the game play even more interesting, for me it added another level of strategy.

Mike,  Can you please confirm that we can only win each specific daily challenge one time.  Example:  one of today's challenge is for 6 equip proficiency levels.  But if you get 12 levels, you don't get the MP bonus again.  The reason I am asking this is regarding this user: http://army.ca/milpoints/?user=7365

Looks like you found another bug! Or at least the banned user found a bug. 

Edit: You cannot stack with the Time Spent Playing challenge, I have 37,838 / 7,702 and it hasn't reissued the bonus.

I noticed the same with the time challenges or msn proficiency, but I didn't want to accuse anyone of anything until proven.  I am only up to 6 on the equip so I haven't been able to notice if it restarts or would do the 6/7 thing.

[Mike Bobbitt]

Another interesting find, mich. I checked the logs and all 4 of these entries are for exactly the same second. So it's possible that the log just got confused. But I've checked with the user directly to see what happened.

When things are working correctly, you're only supposed to get a challenge reward once, no matter how many times you double/triple/etc. it.

[Allons-y]

I've done a search and I can't figure out how to link my FB to army.ca so I was wondering if anyone could help me out.
