Post by: Mr. AS on May 16, 2013, 05:13:46 PM: from seeing the bots up close, i can safely say that tribal, HNEC, iron rose and chi have a fair chance of getting to the final, unless 090901 or the bye bot cause some OOTA upsets.

too bad it's going to get owned

Post by: Venko on May 19, 2013, 05:06:33 PM: Check out the OP for "GROUP A".
The whole tournament is filmed.
I will upload one group every day.
I had some troubles with the recording of the audio, also decide not to include music, so the movies are silent.
I regretted now for recording at half-resolution, download the original file, since the Youtube lowered the quality as well.
Also, I didn't feel to put a much effort in the after processing of the videos this time.
There are some cool stuff later in the tournament.

Bad matchup. :P

True, but don't worry, you also qualified for the next round. Look at "the green cell" in the brackets.

Go and re-read the rules, the first two by points continues for the next round.

Post by: Venko on May 21, 2013, 10:50:41 AM: Group C is up.
Title: Re: NORMIES VS FREAKS [SBV]
Post by: ianh05 on May 21, 2013, 09:40:48 PM: Sad to see repeating video go even though it won a round, IMO if one bot outlasts another it should be given more points, that's how robo zone works at least with time and then points if the time is a dead heat.
Title: Re: NORMIES VS FREAKS [SBV]
Post by: Venko on May 22, 2013, 12:10:09 PM: There were some cool moments in the last video ^
Semi-final A is now up.
@ Ianh : You should offered that, when the tournament was still a discusion.
In a rumble tournaments, like this one, you must do a huge number of DMG fast in the chaotic melee, or you are out.

My bot eliminated Chi and got less points because it went down after it, that doesn't make sense.

Points are obviously going to favour HS because of their design to hit everything around them. Either way hope you fix it if you plan to use this format again.

Just a bad luck and you went down, you was first in the last group, beating a HS and a pusher, so the HSes are not that dominating. You will have other chances to win a tournament or my prize, so don't get upset Ianh :smile:

I will, but that's why all the tournaments went thru a "discusion" stage, why no one proposed anything when the NvsF was in a discusion stage? The initial rules was posted very early and they clearly said, what scoring system I was about to use. I even discussed my tournament with you, way before I started it, I even done some advices from you.

Post by: Mr. AS on May 22, 2013, 08:40:41 PM: its going to be tough to beat hnec in the final, even moreso if gone tribal goes through next match.

The armour of my 2 bots will be weakened for the final, according to the rules.
Semi-final B is now up.
For now, the "supposed to be good" bots continues, so what mr. AS guessed is right.
Title: Re: NORMIES VS FREAKS [SBV]
Post by: Venko on May 25, 2013, 01:44:11 PM: I'm finally sober to post the final...
The grand final is up.
You can post your comments about the tournament and to nominate for a moral prizes (best looking bot, dark horse, bad lucker and so...).

Congrats to Mechadino, he deserve this, after multiple times of a bad luck and raping by "The grenade"!
Since I became first, I will sharing the arena, check out my signature to download it.
Why, when I enter with a joke entries (a watermelon ripened mad, HNEC) I win, but when I enter with a serious stuff, I lose...
In the end, it's up to you all to decide, are the freaks that dangerous, and should they be allowed in the regular tournaments.
Title: Re: NORMIES VS FREAKS [SBV]
Post by: Mecha on May 25, 2013, 04:03:25 PM: Wow! 2nd place! i can't believe it.
Thanks Venko and MR.AS for all the work you put into this tourney.
Congrats & :thumbup to everybody who entered. :)
Title: Re: NORMIES VS FREAKS [SBV]
Post by: J on May 26, 2013, 02:55:52 AM: Why am I not surprised the HS won?
Also I found it rather odd how we had more Normie then actual Freaks.
Anyway... As far as my entries were concerned, I was going for style, rather then efficiency, as always tend to do.
Plus, bonus points for Me cuz' Nary was supporting Mole.

Oh, and J-Tron made me lol.
Now we just needed to come full circle, and mention Ego Raptor somewhere.

Either way, the tournament was entertaining.

Post by: ianh05 on May 26, 2013, 03:22:29 AM: Good job on the tournament Venko and Mr.AS, it's not easy hosting one of these so congrats to Venko on your first battle based tournament. Hopefully you get the sound issue sorted out before your next tournament if you plan to host another.

Venko, that is a death stare at you from me -.-

The second place was a popup, so it wasn't THAT HS dominating tournament.

Yeah, too bad, I expected more bots at general.

You did well, just didn't pass to the final.

Me too, I think the J-tron was formed twice.
Now we just needed to come full circle, and mention Ego Raptor somewhere.
What's this???
Either way, the tournament was entertaining.
Dunno, a lot of people showed lack of interest.

What is hard? I made most of the stuff in one day.
Hopefully you get the sound issue sorted out before your next tournament if you plan to host another.
I can fix the sound, I can put much efforts in the video editing, I can do a better stuff at general, but...
Aside form the problem, that I can't AI on a tournament level, the huge lack of interest was pretty obvious. How to host another tournament, when this one had the lowest viewers/participants ever in the history of RA2 (stock and DSL). If I ever host another tournaments, every one will be completely diferent from each other, so no NvsF 2. So tell me, how to host whatever, when only 4-5 people want to enter?
Venko, that is a death stare at you from me -.-
What for?
