I totally understand the rules, so fair's fair. On what game system was the Joust tiebreaker to be played? Just curious...
5cents touched on the point that was my only gripe. The time constraints weren't closely regulated, which caused the tournament to run long. Had things stayed on schedule, I would've had time to take on Guru in Joust. Understanding that everyone has crazy schedules, it's not that big of a deal, but it definitely cost GOM a shot at winning the tournament.
In a perfect world, we should've been able to postpone the final tiebreaker.
Other than that, I really like this tournament format. There were obvious glitches with the AOX scoring system, but we all worked through it. I'm still jetlagged, or else I'd give more feedback.
Congrats to EC for the tourney win! (even if it does come with an asterix ;D) |
Hey Tanc, welcome back. I hope you enjoyed lovely Spain, and hopefully you were okay in all the bull action.
Thanks for the congrats. I feel like you and GOM showed yourselves to be champions too. We definitely need to have another battle down the road. You and the other teams gave us a really tough fight.
Even with some glitches, I really enjoyed the contest. There was more drama than anyone contest I have seen. Let see here, just between GOM and EC we had more ties than I have ever seen on RU before:
1st) we tied in number of bonus games completed.
2nd) we tied in Dice for the first time in the history of that game I believe.
3rd) You and I were within 9 points of each other in the dice final (not to mention earlier 5cents and I were less than one screen's worth of points apart in Donkey Kong).
4th) You and Gamenguru tied in Balloon Fight. The too bad tournament system can't handle a tie situation in a bracketed tournament, as I feel like you both won that one.
You guys (and EC of course) rock! VB had a good showing too, as did Cam from Mega Men. Nice Team Contest one and all. I look forward to seeing what the next one will hold.
