err back on topic

this is my first BBEANS so I dont know much on how it is ran, does the losers bracket start after the winners bracket? or part way though?

also I just started watching some videos from round 2 and that is one powerful flipper for a stock bot Philetbabe I guess if my bot did beat Sandstorm it was guaranteed to loose via flip out

R0B0, I was looking at the modest part....

it's funny, but all of your predictions are the opposite of Naryar's ones. !
it should be interesting to comment them shortly.

It's been a bit of a delay, I know, but I got the first set of loser's bracket matches up!

No matches that are particularly noteworthy unless you're one of the competitors, but you gotta get through rounds like this to get to the good stuff later on.

Also, now that we're done with round 2 and all the bots have fought at least once, I got some tournament rankings started!  These rankings will determine who gets to participate in the rumble (with the added bonus of making my job easier when I have to add BBEANS5 data to the cumulative ranking).

Unless you're ACAMS, MikeNCR, or Naryar, of course, in which case you'll automatically get to participate in the special Champion's Rumble with the BBEANS5 winner as the fourth entry.  There won't be any prizes or anything awarded for this, but with three former champions and one champion-to-be, I just have to put them all in the arena at the same time and see what happens, right?

Obviously, the rankings will contain spoilers from the most recent videos I posted, so watch any matches you want first before checking them.

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

Boring to Good fights I admit, I'm just glad mine was enjoyable and entertaining.  The next matches I think will be interesting for at least half of the fights.

and immmm out. well I suppose that's what you get for entering a bot when you only had the game for a month or two, all that protection was quite useless with out the weaponry.

At least I'm not in the bottom of the rankings. I just hope that I can get a better ranking after this tournament than my current one.

shouldn't the loser brackets be done at the end?

most early matches are always dull or one sided so I guess by getting some of the losers bracket out of the way it will come to the point of only good matches rather then dull, good, dull, good.

Well I hope not all the Loser's Bracket videos are boring. T-800 needs to fight his way out of the losers bracket. Or be found defective and shipped back to Skynet to be turned into scrape metal and reforged anew...

Yeah, the 2nd round of the loser's bracket shouldn't be so bad. This is when the mostly good, but unluckly bots show up, as you probably knew anyway.

Looking at the brackets, it might be a bit bumpy in the round after the next for me. Generic Rammer should be easy, but Three Kings doesn't look like it'll lose against Juggernaut, and that's a worry after AC. Atleast the back is exposed. If I win somehow, either Cocytus IV or Bounty Hunter will fight BFR. More worried about Cocytus, because my wedge tweaking was a 2 minute job. If the multibot tactics work though, might be easy.

Well, atleast have a chance of racking up some points. If you target that rammer, atleast. Depends with the popup.

Yeah. Do note that Trojan Horse was a semi-joke bot because I had to concentrate on my exams. :P

But don't worry. I have my BBEANS6 entry ready. >:)

Looks like some-one forgot his synopsises.

Anyways, I will check the fights out for SFTW on SFTW ACTION!

EDIT: Fights are okay. Mace in da Face vs. 'Eavy Metal Boi was, predictable to say the least.

17th. Decent considering I had to put up with AC in my 2nd round.
