Come the 18th of this month we will be starting our SECOND 'Coops Challenge'. In short I have set 30+ Stages to the Challenge broken in to specific Game Activities. It's up to you the players to rise to the challenge and complete as many of the stages as you can.
The First Coops Challenge will begin on the 18th of September and will run through till Midnight on the 5th of October. Prizes will be award on the 6th of October, depending on how many stages of the Coops Challenge have been completed by that time.
You can read a little more about the challenge OVER HERE in a short Primer Guide.
I am still nailing down which exact targets and numbers will be added on the day hence my 30+ I'll also shake up the prizes a little this time If I can without giving away the house! As this challenge includes three weekends there shouldn't be too much issue 'taking part'.

Re: Second 'Coops Challenge'
Well its September the 18th and as promised at 14:00 we will begin the 2nd Coops Challenge. This one will run slightly longer than the last, right up to Midnight on the 5th of October. This gives you Three Full weekends to take part should your weekly 'grind' keep you away from your beloved CE 
This time Round we have the old Challengers plus a new one added (still getting my head around a few of the others I want to add but perhaps they will make it for the Third)
There were 36 Challenges in total broken down into 12 Categories.
Ashar Freight Deliveries
Wesbec Freight Deliveries
Valoren Freight Deliveries
Union Passenger Deliveries
Total Ships Destroyed
A.I Ships Destroyed
Alien Ships Destroyed
Wrecks Salvaged
F.O.M Mission Ores Deliveries
Total Ore's Mined
Total RAID's destroyed
PLUS : Personal Crafting XP Income
This one is fairly simple to follow but for those that might be confused. When crafting using a standard 'Manufacturing Facility' the type found in the Icon bar of Promenades, any XP earned from items crafted in this fashion will add towards the Coops Challenge Goal.
NO OTHER form of crafting counts, ONLY personal crafting via a Manufacturing Facility. So no Guild Crafting, so Genesis, Settlement Shake & Bake, or anything else I've forgotten. JUST Personal crafting.
Goals & Rewards
As each stage is completed the next stage is activated along with a 500 Fuel addition to a Global Fuel Reward. Therefore complete all 36 stages and you will be awarded a Global 18,000 Fuel Ticket EACH.
Extra Prizes!
This time round I will also be creating a Goodie Bag. What goes in this goodie bag will be Posted by me each day as you break certain points. You'll need to keep an eye on my Dev post to keep up with what's in the Bag.
The Fuel Ticket and Goodie Bag will be added to Active Accounts on the morning of the 6th of October.
Have Fun folks and Pop in to chat during the Coops Challenge, say hi take part in the chat. Who knows what we will be giving away in there!

Re: Second 'Coops Challenge'
Day two of the Coops Challenge and so far you have broken THREE stages of the 36 in total. That's actual not bad going seeing the challenge didn't start until 2:00 pm on the Friday just gone.
As Promised I said I would begin adding items to the 'Goodie Sack' for when the Challenge is over. As you break more goals I will add more items to the Sack. As its still early days lets start with :
Coops Challenge Goodie Sack
200 Festive Points
10 SNARG Treats
Of course this list will continue to grow until the final whistle, but is dependant on you clearing the Goals.
Keep up the great work Folks!

Re: Second 'Coops Challenge'
Still the first Three Challenges complete and no more broken through YET. Although you are getting close on a few and are nearly 20% of the way through the Fuel Burnt requirement I added at the bottom of this Challenge.
I thought it would be good to see if you could Burn 3.5 Million units of fuel between you on this Competition.
So for day Three no special extra rewards added to Coops Goodie Bag, but I'm guessing tomorrow will see a few more Challenges fall - So eyes on the prizes folks (and of course THIS THREAD!)

Re: Second 'Coops Challenge'
Ten days in folks and your hammering on those goals! So far as of this morning you have completed Fourteen out of the 36 targets. Fuel wise you've burnt through 1,473,704 units of fuel between you since the start.
The only section that has not had a single entry yet is the RAID Kills. It might be a good idea to get the gang together for the coming weekend and hammer out some of the those RAIDS whilst you can.
The Global Fuel reward sits at 7,000 units of Fuel and as per my promise the Coops Sack of Goodies now looks like this :
Coops Challenge Goodie Sack
700 Festive Points
20 SNARG Treats
500 Sven Barter Points
15 X Stamina Stim 100 + 100 HP Pack
15 X Planetary Vehicle Repair Kit Raptor 1
2 X IP Reset
3,000 Skill Points
15 X 30% XP Boosters
10 X Supra Nano Ammo Pack
10 X Halloween O2 Packs
The Coops Sack of Goodies sure is starting to bulge!
Keep up the good work Folks! You have till midnight on the 5th of October!

Re: Second 'Coops Challenge'
Update to the Coops Challenge. You have now broken in to SEVENTEEN of the 36 Goals set in the Challenge, so I think that deserves a pat on the back folks! - So far the challenge has led you to burn 1,928,341 units of fuel!
Six days left and 19 Challenge Goals left, three of those are RAIDS and we saw no RAID activity this last weekend. That leaves you ONE more weekend left before the 5th. You have till Midnight to down as many Goals as you can.
Until the the Coops Sack of Goodies keeps on growing and now looks like this :
