Aye, so..Reading along the Darkspace Asia, about an event they had there...I figured it'd be an awsome thing to have. Talking with Shigernafy last night, I learned the MV crashes when Gaifens come around, so..
The Idea
In a scenario server this can happen, or possibly in beta..
The admins will make everyone into a single faction ID { To save us all from jumping on wounded people..} We can still choose our factions..The Admins set up a few spawn points here and there, with gaifen packs guarding..The Scenario server could be set to destroyers or something, where we'd all have an equal chance..
There will be a set few who monitor people's kill record..For each kill, the person will get a prize..{ 10k-100k credits, a 1 day coupon..those kinda things} They will count who had the most kills, and name a winner..who wins something like..Oh say, five mill coupon and seven week coupon? Not sure..
Of Course, the gaifens should be powered up abit, to where they arent just an easy kill..

egood idea...but it should be done 1 person at a time so everyone will have equal chance and no one will steal kills off u (<---happens so many times in mv)

Or.. have two or three teams battling to get the most kills overall - perhaps of the same faction? - but then since kill stealing is a very real possibility, there could be a strategy to killing the other team: prevent them from stealing your kills. Or, chasing them off would be an option then, at least.
I think this was mentioned (that part ^) before in the event forum, in conjunction with a similar event.
Or.. like Nim said, have each person go after a different group of Gaifen in order to minimize kill stealing.

i like the idea of the hunt because it would help the ppl of ds to bond (as mentioned above) and would also help with more ppl subbing if events actualy happened on a regular basis like lets say 1 time every 2 weeks. and the winner would get 3 days of free ds as to not hurt ds's budget too much. and you would have to be subbed to enter so ppl couldnt just play in the events and get free time for not paying i also think they should bring back fleetwars but give out prizes every month for highest ranking fleet so being in a fleet does something to game besides capping planets in MV.
