can we reset the weapon stats, like the 21 day ones, and then give prizes to the top scores in every class. They would be smaller prizes but alot of people would try and do this, i think. And it wouldn't mess with any of the over all stats, just the weapons. and in 21 days it really starts over again. Just a thought.

Sounds like a fun little idea overall but we would have to work out a lot of things before we got started, but still not bad, i would imagine it would be quite awesome :D

I hate to be the Sad Panda for this idea, but I don't like using the weapon stats as a qualifier. It would promote many people from not adjusting their class to a map or team needs, and the last thing we need is a repeat of Medics trying to get bonesaw kills instead of healing for the team.

he said "every" class thus it seems like there would be a prize for each class.
Not to be a party pooper but unless the prizes are less in cost of the previous ones I don't think this would be possible financial wise. That would pretty much be the cost of server rental for a year if you were thinking prizes would be the same as they've always been.
I also think its impossible for weapon stats to be erased unless you delete everything from the past 21 days, meaning it would be like the past 21 days didn't exist in stats.

My point was if I played a scout, I'd always play a scout for those 21 days, even if we had 7 scouts and really needed a medic or some engies. And if we dealt with "Weapons" the med gun wouldn't show up, so medics would have to go around with the bone saw or blutsauger to try and get a prize, and we know how that turned out during achievement week.

A secondary option is all the people who came in first would get put into a hat and then the winner gets the prize. Other than that, the best prize I could see for all the weapons would be a free month of membership.

Wouldn't have to erase anything, just take the stats after the 21 day mark. :)
