Totally up to you guys if you enter or not and I am noting the feedback.

But here's something to think about, not entering you have zero chance of winning ;)

And if we enter, how many chances will you give us?
I say we have zero chances all the same :mrgreen:

15 chances :) The good thing about it actually is that 3 of the animals are found on Whiterime. Then to get the Elk I would head to RFF so you can also try improve your moose score. Just how I would do it to improve my chances.

OK. I'll think about it. A little question, in the general hunterscore all the harvested animals have the same value, a little bird does a polar bear, it would be not be fairer that there was different categories with different value. To say, big, medium and small for instance.

Some doubts:

a) we must hunt just males of the big five or we can hunt the females too?

b) we have to hunt in all the reserves or we can choose just one?

c) we have to hunt all the animals (at least one of each?) or we can focus on just two or three?

Thanks.

I do not understand the question sorry mate. It is all about weight, so score doesn't matter? I am pretty sure I do not understand your question :D

A, it's weight, so doesn't matter about sex. But generally males are heavier.

B, You can select whatever reserve you like, but remember not all animals are found on all reserves. I wrote a few posts above how I would go about it, strategy wise.

C, You need to harvest one of each species mentioned to register a score. But you can keep improving your score until all attempts have been used. So say your first moose is 500kgs, any moose you shoot after this one that is heavier, will improve your final score. One attempt is claimed as soon as you start a hunt on a reserve that has one of the animals in it, you can harvest as many animals as you like and your attempt ends only when you exit that hunt.

I highly recommend going to the wiki and reading the animal weights section and also looking at the maps and looking at where you are likely to find which animal.
