I've been a member here are Xbox America for a few years now... not sure if I ever did post in here. I spend most of my time on TrueAchievements to be honest, but it really is all about the games.
I'm the host of the GTASC (The Great TrueAchievement Score Challenge) a year-long scorefest not affiliated with TA.. but one that uses their achievement weighting system. The basics on the competition... this year we will have 100 5-gamer teams with 2 being eliminated weekly.
That's right gamers, I plan on making this an annual event. Meet and beat your fellow community members in a nearly year-long friendly competition - with prizes! It is a double elimination contest meaning each week, the 2 lowest scoring teams will be eliminated. Scores are calculated weekly, so it will take constant effort each week to keep your team safe. With 5 members this year less stress will be on each individual - allowing more leeway for work, family or other 'real life' events.
The competition will start at midnight Eastern (5 am GMT) on Sunday, January 1st, 2012. At that time, each Gamertags current TrueAchievement score will be captured and the competition will begin.
The competition will be comprised of 100 teams with 5 Gamertags within each team.
* The teams that finish in the top 5 in the previous years' GTASC are given an automatic entry for themselves and 3 more patsy's to round out their team. (Provisions will be made if Team Disposable Income wishes to defend their title.)
* 4 teams will be chosen by the host team - which is also competing.
* 90 teams will be chosen at random from the eligible entrants.
Prerequisites for entry:
1. Teams must be comprised of 5 Gamertags.
2. Each Gamertag must have been registered on TrueAchievements for a minimum of 12 months OR show at least a 1 year tenure on Xbox.com.
3. Each Gamertag must have a TrueAchievement score of at least 25,000 as of the time they apply. (November 1st - 15th)
4. The total TrueAchievement score for the team must not exceed 1,500,000 (1.5 Million) as of the time they apply.
5. Each team shall submit a video or short bio describing their team. Be creative, express yourself. This is intended as a community event, it's nice to know who we're playing with.
