Sheild vs. Mystic is up.

[MassimoV]

Tweedy vs. Alex is up.

[MassimoV]

SKBT vs. me is up.

[MassimoV]

Schriviks vs. Elementos is up.

[Scrapyard24c]

Well Voltergeist had a good run while it lasted.  Perhaps it's time to give up the robotic ghost and come out with a true successor to Voltergeist

[MassimoV]

Akshaylan vs. Ty is up.

[Schrikvis]

Schriviks vs. Elementos is up.

You messed up the brackets, please fix it.

I'm so happy I won that fight.

[Shield]

This has not been a very good season for me. I see no way Guardian can get past Devious, Carousel or General Ripper. Was not expecting Takles to take out the motor that quickly either. Coulda had it.

[RFS]

I feel bad for laughing when someone loses but I couldn't help myself when the Pulverizer kept smashing Sliced 2.5's weapon system.

[Clickbeetle]

I know that the AI thing was my fault since I didn't send bindings for it, but what the bindings you used for my SHW?

Ah whatever, good game Naryar.

The nesest Flipper.py. All the flippers have it so when 2 flippers fight eachother, the "staredown" happens.

Scrapyard vs. VB is up.

I'm thinking the default settings for Flipper2 should be a bit less sensitive... I used it for Dynastes adamanteus as well, and had to tone it down so it wouldn't sit and let itself get beat up.  Ended up using 'EnemyMoveRadius':0.25 (the default is 1).

Kind of hard to make that change now though, with the .py already in wide distribution.

Edit:

Also for the record, I disagree with the judges' decision for Oy Vey! vs. Venum.  Oy Vey did more damage, yes, but all it did for 90% of the match was spikeball around the arena.  Venum should have won on control and aggression.  Heck, it was STILL controlling the match after losing both hammers.

Thank you click

and I thought I was wrong, I never speak against judges, but this is an exception

I also thought this. Oy Vey just bounced around the whole time, and only really had a few good hits. Venum on the other hand showed control the whole time and almost all of the hits it landed were good, solid hits. I was actually quite surprised the judges didn't go for Venum.

The judges hate my guts

That's a little extreme, it was a close match either way; it's not like Venum completely dominated.  I just think it had a slight edge.  Arguments can be made for Oy Vey as well--for instance, had the match gone on longer, Oy Vey would certainly win because Venum had no weapons left.  I still disagree with the judges' decision, but I can understand why they made it.


Edit 2: Edit Harder:  I guess since me vs. Badnik isn't posted yet, it must have gone to a judges' decision.  I'm cautiously optimistic.

Just waiting for SKBT's scores and it will be up. Pretty good match imo.

I've had bad luck with judges, both in tourneys and in fights

[Jakewilliamson]

And that's the end of my game, out entirely , for a record of 2 wins - 4 losses.

[Naryar]

The hell it is with this new flipper py ? Why it is waiting in an unmanly fashion instead of charging gloriously in a french way ? Not to mention all the waiting until immobilized, then going backwards full throttle (instead of just a bit to avoid the immobility counter) and promptly turning, therefore giving a free opportunity to flank a bot. This most especially in a wedge war.

I'm O.K. with Redace outwedging my bot, but I would like a rematch with an correct py. I will provide a fair .py and bindings, of course.

Yes, I didn't provide precise AI bindings but I certainly wasn't expecting my bot to act like that.

[MassimoV]

Click vs. Badnik is up.

[Badnik96]

Okay so that rebuild failed. Next time I'm using a beefier weapon motor.

GG Click, I knew that was gonna be a good match either way.

[Virus Bomb]

cool the former lw champ vs the two time lw champ... win or lose i hope the fight is entertaining at the very least

speaking of entertaining, click's lw has been the most fun to watch in this tourney by far imo

[MassimoV]

Mystic vs. me is up.
