Wolves den challenge log impossible to achieve?

[Blubbers]

Hey Geryth! I think I saw you in a secure we did a couple days ago?? Good stuff!

Anyway, I think the point Faelyn and Ceve are trying to make here is that if you've got a group of 8 together to do some matches for the challenge log (and can figure out the technical issues to get it to pop), you might as well do some real matches with them instead of just run in and sit there win-trading. You need 3 wins and 10 matches for the challenge log. Your group definitely isn't going to be balanced with two rank 1's, but the more real matches they get the better they'll be for next time.

You could tell your group of 8 that you're going to do 7 "real" matches. No holding back with the goal to win. With the 1 min before the gate opens you can talk strategy with the new guys and I bet after 7 matches those guys will have a better sense of how den works and what they need to do.

Now after 7 games, you reassess. If the teams are fairly even, you can just keep going for the next 3 matches to hit the 10 games for the challenge log and you're good, maybe you can even get some more games going after that now that you have instant-queues and people are getting into it.

If after 7 games the score is 7-0, then nobody is going to blame you for giving the next 3 wins to the less experienced group so they can get their challenge log. You could say for those last 3 games that both teams attack the healer, but once the healer is down, the team that needs the wins for the challenge log gets the win. This keeps it interesting while also giving you guys the much needed challenge log clear.

Hey Blubbers, yeah we totally were in a Secure together the other day. I wish my teammates were always so skillful and cooperative :P

I agree with everything you wrote. I think I'm going to first try out the Friday night Wolve's Den event and try to advertise it on Mateus and see how it goes - if that can satisfy the challenge log then I see no need to try to set up a "win trade" again. I think I'd be hard-pressed to convince the LS to try setting up two parties to queue again because of how much time we wasted setting up and yet being unsuccessful. But if we can get that working then I definitely think it should be used as a teaching tool instead of a mindless win-trade.
