Seems to me the issue is not how large the guild is, but how many active players were involved in the contest. EXAMPLE:

PNC has fewer than 50 members, but still PLACED in the top 20! That says a LOT.

BBK, although a "large guild" has fewer than half the members of some other guilds that participated--and we placed in the top 5.

It's not a matter of overall guild size, it's how many ACTIVE players you have, and how many of THOSE participated and how serious they were about it. Look at Molly Blue--she knocked out so many enemies all by herself that she got a Disney mention. ANYBODY COULD have done that, as long as they had the time to devote and the desire to do so.

Grats to everyone that placed in the Top 40 =) Spania seems to be the only one missing I think from the final results... ROFL Guardians would've had probably another 2K added if I didn't conk out the last 6 hrs of the contest lol... said I was gonna take a lil nap, *totally embarrassed* and I ended waking up 8 hrs later, 2 hrs after the contest ended lol...for a guild that got crashed earlier in July, I'd say we did pretty good for 295ish members.

Guild numbers don't mean that much when most are inactive...u can have a lil guild full of active ppl who would just do about the same amount of enemies defeated as any other big guild where half the guild is like inactive.

Ditto...and with that, a super WTG to SeaFurys!!! SF hasn't appeared on the Top Daily Guilds for Enemies Defeated for a really long time and they were formerly Top Overall 3 for Enemies Defeated. They didn't get into the contest really until like the last THREE days of the contest, and they flew up the list to #12 when they worked together to get over 100K enemies...::totally impressed:: imagine what it would be like if they had started at the beginning of the contest...

Not to also mention that SeaFurys only had about 15 actives... PNC has 2x that number I heard. So if small guilds could do it, that means ur guild could've done it as well, toanuju22.
