Again... Show me where players were rewarded for executing on said bounties.

Otherwise, it's a motivating tactic made by the DC to get his players in the game.

i mean, My God - it's not like we had the defensive stats to back it up..

Thank you!! Atleast I know I am not crazy for thinking the same things. I want proof!! 50,000 pages seems a wee excessive.

The problem ISN'T whether players were paid or not; the problem is that the bounty 'fund' was in place to begin with.

Thank you! I made that point in another thread. It doesn't matter whether players were successful or not in knocking players out of the game... all that matters is that the people in charge are admitting that it was in place.
