When you don't use firefox.

I use firefox, but I like that it takes too long for the matches to load when I just open them in new tabs, so I download them.

If my computer let me download them, I would.

Right-click, "save target as". That should let you. I've saves my 2 figths that way.

It's grayed out for me.

Click I think you got my rank wrong, unless each of the multibots count as a KO.

I got a KO on both in the first round, lost in the second, then knocked out one of them and got a WBP in the third round.

Joe, Click probably didn't count the WBP points in the third round for you because its kinda unfair. The same is true with Duck who only knocked one of the two multibots in two of his fights with Manu, if you check his rankings.

how is it unfair?

Each bot in the cluster does count as a KO. So if you KO both, you get 2 KO's for that round. I just don't count WBP's if you KO'd at least one of the bots.

Oh, and the winner's bracket round 3 is up now! Basically what you'd expect for the winner's bracket: lots of good fights, and some surprises.

Front page.

Another thing is why do I keep getting the short end of the stick? Three vets in a row! And next is R4. I think I might be smocked.

Wow! some amazing matches there.
Congrats Scrap on your victory against an almighty popup.
Bravo Roboshark with your popup... you destroyed my bot rather amazingly.

To the losers bracket I go... probably against Starcore. I have faced him once with Hellbringer before and didn't fare well then. Probably will not do any better this time either.

Hey, I wouldn't call going 3-0 with 7 KO's "the short end of the stick". That's a pretty impressive run.

What I find amusing is Seism 13's opponents. First Mace in da face, then Chernobyl, and next round, Absolute Chaos! It's had to fight all three of the 36-mace spinners in the tournament. I would call it bad luck, except for how thoroughly Seism 13 owned those bots.

I gotta say the bot with the worst luck would be Cardiac Arrest. Vertical spinners are not friendly to rammers, and CA got two of them.

I honestly have no idea how I won. I was looking at the losers bracket and though i was going to go 1-2 because I would be raped by Bounty Hunter and the BFR.

Did I get under him or did something weird happen?

Sage · « **Reply #415 on:** June 28, 2009, 08:02:08 PM »

Was there a way to make up for lost possible wins with the bye round? or was that something we gave up by automatically winning?

Strat had bad luck too

You got under Bounty Hunter in two of the three fights. I was surprised too; I thought for sure Bounty Hunter had better wedges and would easily get under Cocytus.

There is no way to get "makeup wins". I'd like to have some way for bots to benefit more from byes, but I can't think of anything fair and effective. I used to give bots a free win in BBEANS1, but decided that wasn't really very fair.

Actually, never mind, I just thought of something while I was typing that. I could possibly have a really tough bot, like AC or Bumble Bee or something, and have bots fight it in the bye round. You'll automatically advance to the next round, but you'll only get a win on your record if you beat it (if you lose, then nothing happens.)

I could even still do it for this tournament, maybe have all the bots that got byes fight the champion after it's over for a chance at extra wins. Unless the champion got a bye, then that might get complicated. Thoughts?

Make the bots that got a bye fight the champion
