Well guys, after 10 grueling weeks it all comes down to 1 days gaming for all the marbles. Its been a lot of fun and a great challenge. Too bad someone has to lose. Good luck guys. Its been a pleasure. May the best team win.

Y aren't my scores posting now? I posted several scores tonight and none of them are appearing on the view scores link. Plus the old erased scores still aren't visible. The final day of the final round of a big tournament is a bad time to have all these issues. Are the scores I just posted gone or will they count? what's the deal?

Did my opponents post any scores tonight and no one see them as well?

**Wolf** · 02-09-2012, 11:41 PM

the scores will count post the scores that don't show here so I can use them.

**agnostic79** · 02-10-2012, 12:29 AM

I don't remember the exact scores I just rounded. Approx 36500 in paperboy and 185500 in shadow dancer. R there any score from jojo's team that I can't c?

I'm sorry if I sound inconsiderate I'm really not. I understand stuff happens and sometimes at the worst time. I just need to know where I stand in each game on this final day and my scores to count on the final stretch

140,300 in Shadow Dancer

**agnostic79** · 02-10-2012, 12:36 AM

Looks like we'll all just have to b honest with each other about our score submissions until this gets resolved.

The only one I've sent in to Kong to try and save was 74K or something in the "SlowZilla" game. I just sent you a message Steve - I'm going to try submitting again in a bit.

I'm open to suggestions as what to do?

**agnostic79** · 02-10-2012, 08:17 AM

U and lips know what wwe tried to post. I say every post u make post the score on this forum. That way everyone can see it. We'll do the same.

**Kong** · 02-10-2012, 10:36 AM

Should we pause this contest until this is straightened out?

Definitely not. I say just list your scores on here after posting to let your opponents know where u stand. Then when this is str8ened out u can everify it later. I say take a screen shot of your comp with the score up band paste it here is even better.

---------- Post added at 03:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

I suggest a draw at this point. I promised my wife I won't play after today and I have tons of things to do. At the same time I feel that all this confusion will taint the victory of whoever wins by these technicalities. We all played wellx if the rest of u agree I'm cool with a shared 1st place.

**thetedster** · 02-10-2012, 02:47 PM

And I agree personally getting into a tie with one of the best teams is fine with me

Same thought crossed my mind earlier - I have loads to do as well. On here and in real life - I'm happy to stop.

The fact Agnostic can't play after today makes a draw the best option. The timing of these submittal issues has indeed spoiled the outcome. We each won a round and I saw this final round as a coin toss so under the circumstances a draw seems best and will save three marriages. They have handed out two gold medals in the Olympics so why not?

Agnostic you are an arcade juggernaut! Good show Tedster you were making great headway in Paperboy! It was gonna be close.

To my partner, I never saw myself as a good candidate for these types of contests. I am much more suited to a Nacho Cheese Team format where I can drop in and steal a round here and there for my team on an awkward game that pops up. That said when I got paired with Jojo I knew it would be a great ride and he pulled us through the first elimination round when I was 500 miles from my computer the entire week. He was always understanding of my schedule and never gave me heck even when I had to be M.I.A. Thursdays and Fridays. Josephjo is a true R.U. All Star.

Cheers to all the contestants. Sorry to those who had zero point submissions from partners along the way. Big thanks to Wolfman for putting it together, its safe to say from the participation that the appetite was strong for a contest again!

**Josephjo** · 02-10-2012, 03:12 PM

Thanks Thunderlips - The feeling is mutual. I knew when we we're paired together we could go all the way!!

As did Agnostic!!

Thanks Wolfie for all your hard work.

Well done Steve and Ted - I still think we'd have won though!!!

Well played everyone.

Now I can finally get on with my valentine card!! - Mr Cassidy I'm coming after you!!!

**agnostic79** · 02-10-2012, 05:11 PM

Unless tl actually beat my galmedes score I think we had galmedes and shadow dancer in the bag. I scores 480000 on shadow dancer and could push galmedes even higher. We never even attempted space invaders being that was jojo's specialty and tl just killed godzilla. So unless there's something I'm missing I think it all came down to paperboy. Both ted and I did good but for some reason I thought this game had tl's name written all over it and every time I checked my phone at work jojo was playing it so I'll happily take the draw. So what were the cards up your sleeve guys?

What was your final paperboy score jojo and tl?

Hey do we still get badges? I think we still deserve them after all that.

---------- Post added at 11:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

In a way i feel bummed that we came all this way without a clear winner. It's definitely anti-climactic. But there really was no other way. We had no way to post scores and postponement was impossible, plus would taint the winners. But I am very happy also that Ted and I managed to survive the dynamic duo of jojo and TL. For either team to lose after this grueling and competitive 3 week long battle as well as 10 week long tournament, would have been heart breaking. I really think we all deserved it. I sensed that from every player involved here that a draw was truly a relief both from uncertainty and fatigue. This was by far my most competitive battle on this site since I've started. Thank you Ted for a job well done. And thanks jojo and TL for giving me the best challenge of my life. Take a bow gentlemen. If u really take a moment to look back on how tough this actually was to get here and the great competitors and battles we faced a long the way, u can really take pride in coming out of this great tournament with win.

I'd like to thank Wolfman for organizing this whole thing. It started out kinda uncompetitive, fun and friendly, but by the last half of the competition with not only the finalists, but monsters like Morshu, Elrod, Cassidy, Kong and Jozman, this came became seriously competitive, more and more so with each round, right up to the final round. I truly enjoyed it.

Thank u to all competitors who made this a good tournament. It sucks that some of u had partners who didn't have time to play making it impossible for u to win, but thatnks for putting in a good effort anyway.

And finally, thank u Kong as always for all u do behind the scenes to make this one of the best sites on the internet, as well as for helping Wolfman run a good tournament. Thanks for trying your best to keep everything running through the chaos of the last few days. And as always, thanks for giving me a seco....third chance to prove myself.

**Wolf** · 02-10-2012, 11:21 PM

Don't forget to thank Tails, if I remember right he was the first one to bring up reviving this topic or moving it to closed contests.

**Wolf** · 02-11-2012, 12:01 AM

Nope it was all you dudebro

**Dudebro** · 02-11-2012, 12:07 AM

I'm not trying to be humble or anything I really appreciate the mention. I just seem to remember Tails bringing this up in the first place, might've been in the mod section or a PM though.
