DIESELROBIN: Orb One: A Diesel Story (Finished)

The idea of DieselRobin is to form teams of three and then play chars in turns, rotating to the next player when certain missions are completed. Each team gets 3 chars to play in parallel which are randomly assigned from a pool of nominated chars (every player nominates one).

I'll be running this in the channel ##dieselrobin on chat.freenode.net with a bot, Kramell, which will keep track of your scores and make progress announcements when you complete missions. To sign up, get yourself a team of three and pick a team name, then go to ##dieselrobin and enter:

$signup <team name>

and it will sign you up to that team using your IRC nick.

If you can't find a team and/or want to be randomly grouped with some other players then tell me here or in ##dieselrobin. I'll do the grouping initially on the 4th, and after that as I get requests. After you've been grouped you can pick a team name together and sign up in ##dieselrobin as above.

Signups close on the 5th, and DieselRobin starts at 0 AM the 6th of May UTC and ends at the same time 16 days later on the 22th of May.

Important links: FULL RULES WORKFLOW (how to sign up and nominate a char and other stuff)

For getting on freenode IRC you can use the web client or another client of your choice.

Feel free to leave a comment if you are intending to participate, so I can know how many people there'll be :) (you still need to sign up on IRC after getting a team though).

Kill all four panlords with a single Cerebov firestorm."

What, that's all?

This looks really fun, but sadly I wouldn't be able to commit enough time to a team.

I'm looking forward to some good write-ups though!

I've randomly distributed out the chars, use $team in the irc channel to see what you got. You need to assign your chars to an account name and choose which bonus missions you will attempt on each char, refer to the workflow link in OP. Then you may start!

DieselRobin finishes in 2 days! I might not be around at the finishing time as I'm going away, but I'll post the final scores as soon as I can.

This is all very mysterious to me. What were the challenges? Also, how comes that there are such huge difference in points?

See OP, and the links to regular and bonus missions at the top of the linked rules page. Also, some people like me are scrubs and splat their dudes really early.
