YOU DID IT!!!
http://i.imgur.com/xpTdH.jpg
We challenged you and the community delivered! In honor of the HoNiversary, the community was charged with a monumental task: playing 1.1 million games in just five days. You ended up with a little extra time but it didn't even matter. You guys responded and went above and beyond. Not with 300,000 games played. Not with 700,000. Not even with 1.1 million!
The final tally for the Global Challenge was.... 1,565,587 games played!!!!!
Simply amazing. The goal of 1.1 million games was actually reached early on Friday but you guys kept on trucking and crushed the goal by over 400,000 games! Congratulations to all! Now, for the prizes, which will be handed out tomorrow, May 15th.
1.1 million games: Steampunk Electrician AND Electrician Hero (for Basic and Verified players)
700,000 games: Kongor Taunt
300,000 games: Kongor Kourier

1.1 Million Matches? hmm... SO I guess, considering 10 people to a game (assuming all games are 5v5's) its more like 110,000 Matches? (Also Assuming no leavers)
I guess the point I'm trying to make is, does every person in one match, count for a match point to the bottle?

I don`t want steampunk electrician or anything else which the entire community can have, for that matter. Give us the choice of 1 free item in the shop and then you have my shield.

Assuming we can win... The game would be overly saturated with those items since all the active players will probably play at least one game. There should be more prizes for people who play more (like someone already mentioned, incentive for more than 1 game), otherwise the items just become commonplace, overused and uninteresting. I like the initial idea tho and I look forward to playing lots... which I already do.

Great marketing stunt S2. Get awesome traffic by adding 1-3 small avatars/taunt which prolly takes a few hours for your staff to create. Now all there's left for you to do, is to start hiring some supporters so we can get some ****ing updates when HoN is down, instead of being clueless for ages about what's going on at S2.

I am a HUGE HoN supporter, and I love S2, but for the love of God why must you punish the HoN faithful each year on your birthday??? Last year the game went free to play, creating a swarm of new players with absolutely no idea how to play and making the game painful to play for weeks. Now we have this gimmick leading to the mindset seen above which will cause more games to be ruined. There needs to be a better way or a safegaurd against this behavior. I personally would rather not tank my MMR to earn an avatar I'd be willing to pay for.

1.1 million games are too much
90k people and if everyone play 10/15 games it will be achieve easily, right?
NOT TRUE!!!
The main problem is that 1 game need 10 players, so if 10 players play 15 games thats not equal to 150 games!!!
This is equal to 15 games!!!
Let's imagine games last 1hour and there are 50k players playing at a time (the game lenght is much shorter, and there are more players, but w/e)
So there will be 24 games played by each of the 50K players, but each game takes 10 players, so 5000X24 = 120,000
Let's double that amount since the games last more like 30minutes average (I'd assume) and there are more players, also 3v3s etc..
That's easily over 240k games played a day.
So reaching 1,1m should be easy?
Did I make a mistake at some point? :o

What's not fair? Getting an item for free?
As far as I know, each Taunt can be used regardless of owning the "original" Taunt. I might be mistaken though.
Even so, dude... you're getting a free item. Even if you don't currently own the original Taunt, you'll be able to use Kongor's whenever you aquire it.

Did some simple math on this, but the result was kind of confusing (math isn't my strongest side).
1,1 milion games
I rounded the results of to avoid too many decimals.
If the average game lasted 30 minutes it would be
(steampunk reward) 1100000*30= 33000000 minutes
33000000/60 = 550000 hours
550000/24 = 22917 days
22917/7 = 3274 weeks
52 week a year
3274/52 = 63 years
63/5 = 12,5 years
So this concludes that the whole community will have to play an average of 12,5 years of gametime per day?

52 week a year
3274/52 = 63 years
63/5 = 12,6 years
So this concludes that the whole community will have to play an average of 12,6 years of gametime per day?
I think it would be more something like:
Let's say that we are going to reach 70 000 players at the same time for 24h. Its gonna be hard but possible ;)
lets divide it by 10 (5v5 games only) = 7000
lets say 40 minutes of match is average. So its 7 000 games throughout every 40 minutes.
(24h * 60min)/40min will give us 36
36 times 7 000 is 252 000 matches a day.
So it will take us 4.36 days to get 11 000 000
So.. yea.. it gonna happen ;)
Anyways. we NEED at least 61 111 players playing at the same time in average.

Not so true look like this:
set average players to 70 000 a day
set average game lasts about 30 min
70 000 (players) / 10 (players a game) = 7 000 (games in 30 min)
14 000 (games in 1 hour) x 24h = 336 000 (games a day)
336 000 x 5 days = 1 680 000 (games in 5 days)
so.... its possible only u need 60 000-70 000 ppl online playing 0/24

Imakuni
05-06-2012, 06:33 PM
Hmmm.... I did the math, and it seems pretty damm hard!
Let's say that we play 5 games in 3 hours (each game lasts 36min). Let's also consider that the community has 200.000 players that play 3 hours each day. And finnaly, only 5v5 games.
This gives us the following: 200.000/10=20.000 matches. 20.000*5= 100.000 games per day. Now, we have 5 days = 500.000 games..... Only half way there. Considering we'll be doing it IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK, WHEN PEOPLE ARE WORKING AND HAVE NO TIME TO PLAY, the math above seems pretty oversized to the actual ammount.
Of course it all depends on how many active players the community has. Saying we have 1.000.000 active players *laughs*, each person has to play about 10 games. Now, back to the start of my post, 5 games/h; in other words, we have to play a total of 10h. WOOT! We have 5 days to play it = 2h per day. AND, we working/studying/taking a trip to europe/whatever at that time. AND assuming EVERYONE is playing.
Guys, this means the following: 1)we can only play casual; statistics show that casual mode games are almost exactly 5 min shorter the normal games (forgot which s2 member said that). 2)we can only play 3v3, for obvious reasons. 3) ALL matches must have these teams: tempest+keeper+wild soul VS any 2 heroes+bh (team pusher team pushes, bh gives the attack buff to then.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE, WE ARE GONNA NEED IT

My apologies then. I said, however, that I could be mistaken.
Still, there's nothing of unfair in giving people a custom Taunt without them having the basic one. It's like winning a Collector's <Insert Game Name> Box and complaining there's no computer/console with it.

OK guysm listen up. To make this work EVERY ONE has to do what I will list under.
1) PLAY 1 MMR game with your main/sub/alt which ever you want the prize on.
2) Teamup with TWO or FOUR friends. All of you create ONE NEW ACCOUNT. This means that there are three/five new accounts.
3) You 3 with the new accounts enter a MMR match and CC 15 immiedently.
= 4 games a day in an hour aka 12 since you're being 3 or 20 if 5. That's the only way we can make it.

Did some simple math on this, but the result was kind of confusing (math isn't my strongest side).
1,1 milion games
I rounded the results of to avoid too many decimals.
If the average game lasted 30 minutes it would be
(steampunk reward) 1100000*30= 33000000 minutes
33000000/60 = 550000 hours
550000/24 = 22917 days
22917/7 = 3274 weeks
52 week a year
3274/52 = 63 years
63/5 = 12,5 years
So this concludes that the whole community will have to play an average of 12,5 years of gametime per day?
You are forgeting a few important variables in your math :
a) Game gets either 10 players or 6 so its kinda 6 or 10 games per game if you get what i mean ;.
b) number of players online.

Why calculate this?
Lets say it is 100000 player/account thats playing games every day
1100000/100000 = 11
11/7 = 1.57
That gives that every player/account needs to play 11 games these days.
Or 1.57 games every day.

Won't happen... too many negative factors to consider. Being said... it will be nearly impossible, and you'd be lucky enough just to get the minimal prize. My guess is it's just an incentive to get people playing more, as they have no risk of anything other than the courier.
What would be cool is if the Kongor taunt was actually Kongor taunting people before he killed them, not a hero taunt.

My apologies then. I said, however, that I could be mistaken.
Still, there's nothing of unfair in giving people a custom Taunt without them having the basic one. It's like winning a Collector's <Insert Game Name> Box and complaining there's no computer/console with it.
its not okay because we had to buy basic taunt to use all the other taunt so why should this be any different and with the Collectors pack u need the Computer/Consol to play and therefor u need the basic to use the Kongor Taunt ..

Biggest error in there? Multiplying a number based on time with a number not based on time. Look at the post a bit above yours for some actually thought out math that makes sense. understand the basics before trying the difficult stuff

Let's imagine games last 1hour and there are 50k players playing at a time (the game lenght is much shorter, and there are more players, but w/e)
So there will be 24 games played by each of the 50K players, but each game takes 10 players, so 5000X24 = 120,000
Let's double that amount since the games last more like 30minutes average (I'd assume) and there are more players, also 3v3s etc..
That's easily over 240k games played a day.
So reaching 1,1m should be easy?
Did I make a mistake at some point? :o
Half of those 50k people will be playing custom games not mm

1. Lets assume that throughout a day in HoNiverse we have on an average ~40k people online playing TMM.
2. Lets assume a normal TMM game lasts for 40 mins on an average.
3. The number of games played per 40 mins then are 40k/10 = 4k games per 40 mins
4. That means 144k games per day.
5. That amounts to 720k games in the period in question.
6. This means we may get the kongor courier and taunt with a bit of effort (in case my estimates in 1 and 2 are optimistic) and not the Electrician alt.
7. To get the electricain alt as well we need 2 scale by 110/72 = 1.52.
8. Which means we must either shorten our games to ~26mins OR increase the average players per day to 60k.
Point 1 and 2 are assumptions which directly affect the legitimacy of the result. But from my HoN experience I believe these are reasonable.
PLAY HON!

Assuming the challenge counts every game as one and every game is counted (matchmaking or nostats) I have made a progressbar. It is in no way guaranteed to be correct but at least it gives an indication. Also, it auto updates as soon as the HoN site does.
You can view it at: http://sleepkever.dyndns.org/
I do apologize for the programmer art, if anyone wants to create a better design I'm more then happy to implement it. Also, S2, if this bothers you in any way, don't hesitate to contact me.

The Challenge starts on Monday, May 7th at 00:00 EDT and lasts until Friday May 11th at 23:59 EDT
1100000 / 5 = 220,000 games a day
9,166.667 games an hour
let's assume in one given day there are 60k(based off the number i see at the top left in game but ionno if that includes all regions so the number can be low also it doesn't account for increased activity due to the promotion) unique people on at all times and 3/4ths are playing games
45,000 people forms = 4,500 games, assuming a game is 32 mins (normal and casual)+ 4 mins in search = 36 mins per a game
meaning we would still be under the 9,166.667 games an hour to reach the top prize
A better guess would probably be
1100000 games
There are say 120000 accounts participating
1100000/120000= 9.1667 games per account
9.1667/5 days = 1.833 games a day for the 120k accounts

1.1m - 750k = 350k
350k = 2.17 days
2.17 days needed

Almost everyone will have finished their exams, and also there will be the big 4x coins motivation :)

No chance to get the Electrician Alt Avatar, and S2 knows it, they wouldn't have picked such a high number otherwise.
We will probably get the Kongor courier, which is sweet too.

Not to be a party pooper, but this challenge is in no way based on the actual matches played.
If you look at matchid 89045020, you will see that it is a match from around May 7th 00:00. As of 30 minutes ago, we are up to matchid 89258752. Simple math proofs that if every match in hon has a unique matchid, we are no way near the 300k as they claim. So everybody calm down, we'll probably get all the rewards regardless of the matches played.
For the lazy: 89258752 - 89045020 = 213732. So unless there are a magical 100k matches without a matchid, the entire thing is a show.

You good sir, are correct, I didn't even know that the garena servers were seperate, hell, i didn't even know they existed. Shows me for trying to know stuff better after being away from HoN for a good while. Too bad there is no way to get statistics from the garena site, no way to create a live counter now...

I think it's a better idea that we all should play the 3v3 map. I'm guessing the 2 games that i played yesterday that lasted an hour, each, didn't help. I'm not a fan of the 3v3 map but i'm queing right now for a match so i say we all play today on the 3v3 map...
It's wednesday and there's a slim chance we can still make it to the 1.1 mark... We have to do smth to change the strategy cuz this is not working...
Another strategy would be to cc as early as possible... But i'm guessing you can't convince the scout players to cc at min 20 at 10-20 score... :) keeping this in mind tell teams that are losing to cc asap so we have at least a change to make it to 1.1 mil games...

Now get ready to go, Go, GO!
Attention Newerth, the time has come to celebrate HoN's 2nd Annual HoN-iversary and we hope you're just as excited as we are at S2 Games to get this celebration started. Its been two amazing years since Heroes of Newerth was officially launched, bringing gamers together from around the world and this HoN-iversary we have more planned than ever before to make this the biggest HoN event of all time. To kick off all the HoN-iversary festivities, we're calling each and every one of you to unite worldwide to win prizes like never before in:
The Global HoN Challenge
Starting tomorrow, May 7th at 00:00 EDT, we're challenging all of Newerth to unite and play more games of HoN in the week preceding HoN-iversary than the world has ever known. The Challenge starts on Monday, May 7th at 00:00 EDT and lasts until Friday May 11th at 23:59 EDT, where for five days, gamers from around the world in regions such as South East Asia, The Commonwealth of Independent States, North America, and Europe are called to queue up and battle alongside one another as a force to be reckoned with. Should the HoN community go above and beyond in answering the call, we'll reward every participating HoN account with prizes commemorating this massive 2nd HoN-iversary commitment.

The Prizes
When the HoN Community hits these global totals for number of games played, they lock in the prize and bring everyone one step closer to completing the challenge:
[*=left]300,000 Total Game Count Prize = Kongor Courier
[*=left]700,000 Total Game Count Prize = Kongor Taunt
[*=left]1.1 Million Total Game Count Prize = Steampunk Electrician Alt Avatar
How To Win
To enter, simply log in to HoN and do your part by playing any matchmaking game mode starting Monday, May 7th at 00:00 EDT and ending Friday May 11th at 23:59 EDT. Track the progress of the Global HoN Challenge throughout the week using the image in the In-Game Message of the Day and at http://www.heroesofnewerth.com. Prizes will be distributed May 11 to everyone who played at least one match throughout the week.
With the HoN-iversary approaching and the Global HoN Challenge starting tomorrow, there's never been a better time to rally the troops and Get It HoN, so get out there and win those prizes.
Good Luck!
how are you going to give out prizes on may 11th if the challenge doesnt end till may 11th at 11:59? so you will be giving out prizes on may 12th?

i suggest everyone start playing casual mode until 11 may that's the fastest way to make the 1.1m mark and if you lose badly ... just fcking cc , don't try to play with tards in team when the score is 5-30 and you have 3 frags from a total of fcking 5 and your team is useless. just cc and we might make it playing Public games won't help at all .... so players doing that might want to start thinking about playing mm games

It´s pretty lame that people are not rewarded for contributing to this achievement scaling with their contribution.
I play one game and get the same reward as someone who plays 40 or 50 games within this week?
Doesnt sound fair imho.
Please S2 make at least a little incentive for the top contributors (number of games played wise)...
So not having a life outside of HoN (relationship, kids, job, school, etc.) should give you more than people that don't have that kind of free time right? I guess....
Now THAT would be unfair in IMHO. But you go ahead and follow that rainbow.

yea, no the weekend doesnt count. Read the post from S2. It states May 7-11 11:59. the 11th is friday and the 11:59 means 1 min before saturday the 12th. so how does this count the weekend?

I can not answer this as i have not been home to try and play any TMM. Maybe post this question in the Tech support forum and let S2 know. If this is happening to more then just your que, and there is a server issue on S2's side, then they need to fix the issue and extend how long we have to hit the 1.1mil mark deadline. Other then that i would need to know what options you have set for your TMM. Is it set for Casual Mode? or Normal? do you only have All Pick or Single Draft or more options then one? these are the things S2 would need to know. Also how many people are you queuing up with?

Since noone ever mentioned the most obvious thing ever, i have to do dis ! ))
If you guys would remember, we didnt get the vj alt through winning 15 games vs S2,
we got it cause they said "Such an amazing event ... ... ... we are so nice, we give you vj alt"
Now it will most likely the same thing... "Hey we gonna start an undoable event and after that we give them elec alt nevertheless and we are good S2"
Not to mention that they already stated, that this alt is an community alt in their vote thread.
ps: ya my english sucks, live with it

At 700,000 that just leaves us about 400,000 more to go and seeing how we hit 300,000 in one day, I got faith. Plus college students just finished finals yesterday or are finishing them up today.

It is not that obvious. For the VJ Raptor Alt we were given VJ for free in order to be able to use the Alt. We have had no word that S2 will be giving us the original Taunt in a similar manner. I'd rather not spend the coins if it's just going to be free tomorrow and there's no guarantee of reimbursement.
