She's in the winner's Bracket Semi-Finals. In terms of wins/losses, she comes in around number 9. And I'm at the top, wierdly.

If I beat R0B0 I'm confident of beating VB or Guitars.

Not so confident of winning should Urjak, Click or NFX come through the LB.

While I'm at it, here are some predos:

Guitars over VB
R0B0 over Me
Click over Bubbles
Pwn over SKBT
Somebody over NFX
LiNcK over CUDA
My above post explains everything about everything.

Those arnt ranks on the first post.. just match records.. remember you do more rounds in the losers bracket so you can have more wins..

After this tournament I will do the same formula Click does (number of wins divided by number of losses plus four) which will give an accurate ranking..

Yeah, that's true. =) I was confused by that sort of thing when I first signed up, how you could win more matches and still lose.
 
Sounds like a better idea to me, rather than going on wins alone. Are you doing it in terms of matches, or in terms of rounds?

match wins..

Otherwise someone could win perfect 3-0 every match and be ranked the same as someone who scrapped through 2-1 on every match..

Agreed - hence me using that system for BTTB.

Theme?

Also.. Joe.. If you want some new hardrock background misic that can nicelt be used for battles, look up stuff from Demetori.
Example here:
"Always be yourself, unless you're a loser"

Dude, she built a good bot. It's not like it's been luck-ing its way through the competition, it's simply been the better built bot in most of the matches it's been in. Nothing compared to an ItI or Razor Guy run.

Wait I'm confused about the bracket.  It says "Loser to 36" for my fight with R0B0.  And the spot numbered 36 in the loser's bracket would put me against Mike.  Are you not following the numbers?

I downloaded the bracket template from the internet (then added the glow and stuff) Robo pointed out at the start that there would be loads of rematches if I followed the format the template had written in.. so instead I came up with my own sequence to put the loosers into the bracket to reduce the number of early rematches..

Oh, I just assumed the numbers would alternate correctly to prevent rematches.  Didn't look at the bracket as a whole.
