[Ososis]

Did I math that right to 20,844 average?

[Thondalar]

Lol that like 3 of them are Fleurs.



Also, holy shit on Hood making top 50. This is automatically broken.

Also, who the fuck is anonymous?

[Donquix]

yes, the average is 20,844

That is more than all except the top 24 spots.

Raggler got fucked the most at 3,039 bonus EXP

however as long as he plays every day and earns his LTEs (doesn't have to use them, since he can use them whenever) that's basically 3,500 EXP. per week, meaning even the top spot is net ~500 EXP up on a weekly basis.

The vast majority of the player population, again assuming they pick up their 2x LTEs every day, is getting an additional at least ~5k exp a week assuming the rest of us pleebs fall around the 17-18k mark. Even without accounting for LTE experience, free 2-3k+ a week for nearly the entire playerbase.

Thanks top 50 :D

Looks like 20844 is correct by my math.

[Tgo01]

They should release a bottom 50 list as well.

The first cycle of the Lumnis contest has concluded. You can see the summary with LUMNIS CONTEST STATUS, and the list of winners with LUMNIS CONTEST WINNERS.

The final Prime contest amount is 20844. The top 11 people got 22k+, and three people got 23k+. 20844 is itself a higher amount than the top person earned in the old system on many weeks. The number one earners for the past four weeks before the contest would have placed #15, #20, #26, and #29. Of the top 40 in the previous four weeks before the contest, only two earned more than 20844, and several wouldn't have placed in the top 50 at all.

All feedback on the contest is welcome and encouraged. I have two notes up front.

First, current contest information will be available in the future via LUMNIS CONTEST CURRENT. This was active for about the last twelve hours of this contest though I didn't publicly note it, and will be available from the beginning in the future.

Second, a week is probably too short for the contest period. People who started their Lumnis period on Sunday afternoon, for example, may not have had time to finish. This is my fault; I originally planned to have a two-week period and somehow managed to implement it as only one week. We discussed extending the period partway through the week but decided that it might add confusion to do so. The next contest period will probably be longer to ensure that everyone gets a chance to participate.

As a final note, please remember that the switch from time-based to point-based Lumnis is based on the starting time of your last Lumnis cycle. All cycles that started before the switchover point will continue to be time-based. All cycles that start after will be point-based. That means, in a week or so, everyone will be on the point-based system.

[Thondalar]

They should release a bottom 50 list as well.

Has to be some sort of cut-off for that...a modifier of some kind. The bottom 50 would be like...single digit. Thondalar has 3x and an RPA running, and gained 35 XP in the last week...from loresinging something.

Bottom 50 of people who used all 6 hours of their Lumnis.

[Sonics]

Anyone have the stats for Platinum and Shattered? I'm curious to see how they compare.

[Hips]

Anyone have the stats for Platinum and Shattered? I'm curious to see how they compare.

Platinum:
1st: Vrin - 23029 exp
2nd: Vyrshkana - 22538 exp
3rd: Issalya - 22469 exp
4th: Sarien - 22122 exp
5th: Omrii - 21280 exp

I don't play Shattered so someone else will have you fill you in on that.

[neimanz1]

plat is WEAK!! especially Omrii

[myriad]

Only five people leveled in Platinum last week? Eesh.

[Hips]

No, it only counts the top five.

[Omrii]

plat is WEAK!! especially Omrii

Damnit! I got tired after six hours of that shit on Sarien! ... I'll do better in March.

[Androidpk]

Why are some names showing up as anon?

[Geijon Khyree]

You can opt out.

CONTEST SHOWNAME
You are currently allowing your name to be displayed whenever you place in the Lumnis contest.
(You may change this with LUMNIS CONTEST SHOWNAME OFF if you no longer wish to display your name).

[Donquix]

because you can choose not to show your name. LUMNIS CONTEST SHOWNAME toggles it.

[macgyver]

Holy jeezus 32 people ahead of me and I was really trying. Can you see the classes for each player?

[Maylan]

I'm surprised that I made the top 50 at all since I have no logic enhancives, and I dicked around at the Silvergate Gala without using an instant absorb boost for a long time.

[Roblar]

Instant absorb wouldn't count toward the bonus total for the contest.

No enhancive items for me either other than the stat boosts. I should have turned in more tasks for more gem tasks and less bandit, skin, herbs (the latter two dropping me out of saturated a few times even to numb before bounty cooldown expired and only had 2 bounty boosts).

Room for improvement!

[Allereli]

Instant absorb wouldn't count toward the bonus total for the contest.

I think he meant he didn't instant absorb to clear his mind and pause Lumnis while he was futzing around off a supernode at a CHE event.

[Geijon Khyree]

What theorycrafting is our maximum 50 on a swinging curve scale?

[macgyver]

Classes man! I need the classes associated with these names!

[Roblar]

I think he meant he didn't instant absorb to clear his mind and pause Lumnis while he was futzing around off a supernode at a CHE event.

Oh right good call.

[jumbodog]

I'll humor you. I was one of them. Warrior. If you want to know how I did it read the two comments that were posted on "how to beat lumnis" one was its own thread, the other was leifara's (spelling) post in the original Official cross post.

[Maylan]

I think he meant he didn't instant absorb to clear his mind and pause Lumnis while he was futzing around off a supernode at a CHE event.

This is exactly what she meant :)
