best moments in tourney history?
« on: March 29, 2009, 04:23:29 PM »
I'm rather bored today. there has been lots of tournaments now and i was wondering what everyone's favorite tournament moment is.

mine was in the tag team tournament when wheely big cheese 2000(?) actually got in a huge flip on ROBOSH4RK's bot amoeba returns, even though he was my partner i lol'd and we almost got beat but still got to the finals.

Beating Starcore and ACAMS when they were on a team was pretty cool for me. I couldn't believe it.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Winning more than 1 round in RAW... I suck in tournaments.

But my worst moment was losing to Sorrow. Thankfully i got vengeance online against him.

I got nothing for myself. The few matches with DDMW were sleepers.

In other people's matches.. don't know. Never really watched them.

For me was the whole success of Shreddar in BBEANS3 and that I was the second of the 3 who got a kill out of ChildsPlay

I forget exactly what bot it was fighting, but when InfCon used the other bot as a stunt ramp and launched itself out of the arena really struck me as funny.

Also Hum-Drums vs TORQUE.

Man, there's a lot of them.

One was in BBEANS1, when I Will Get Shredded made it to the semifinals and even when it lost, it wasn't without a fight.  I still think IWGS vs. Wedge Tracker is one of the best matches in BBEANS history.  Everyone thought IWGS would live up to its name, but it turned out to be a half-decent bot.

Also Hazardous Contraption vs. Red Red Green?, because even though HazCon ends up winning 3-0, for a large part of the match it looks like it's going to be RRG.  You really can't tell who's going to win that one until it's over.

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

i found possibly the biggest glitch in BBEANS history. in BBEANS 3, round 1: antichrist V.1 vs Ding Dong armadillo around 1:30 :)

poor click had to record all of that :( and i know for a fact his HW entry for BBEANS 5 is just as bad... maybe worse.

argh to many to think of :P

SnSnSnSnS tossing Cube Tank "into the camera" was cool (unanimously won best moment of CC1)

Grindhouse putting Super SnS oota really early in the match was epic too

I still couldn't figure out how that happened. O_O

Hmmm... I would say the most epic ones (in my opinion, of course) would be TH vs. Cocytus IV and RRG? vs. HazCon. :D

In Clash Cubes 2, seeing LRA2's "Chain of Impending DOOM" losing to "Cube From the West". Classic! :biggrin:
