Same here. I think this might confuse some people because I might try to improve my score on the main song instead of playing the Tie Breaker song. I don't know, I just think having this new option might create some problems in the future.

I mean, you -could- do it such that whatever score is on both sides of the line being the elimination score so if you can get your score above that, you aren't eliminated anymore, -and- if you "win" the tiebreaker you aren't eliminated either, and since any unsubmitted score is -infinity, if I improve my main score and you do the tiebreaker, we both advance.

If that happens, then the tournament should be a double elimination. Where If you get knocked out, you go to the 2nd tier and play there. So if someone improves there score on the main song, and the other person played the Tie Breaker song, then the person who played the Tie breaker song would advance, and the person who improved there score would go to the 2nd Tier. Because if you don't play the Tie Breaker song, wouldn't your score be -infinity, and you would lose the Tie Breaker?

Two more things.

One, is there only going to be one person working on the scores this time around? Because I remember last time, it was a big problem that took forever when only one person was handling the scores.

Two, when is it starting? I might have missed the start date.

Thanks for confirming that Devonin. ^^

Yay, Haku is in! Can't wait to face him. =3

lol.

Is that a crime? Actually I kind of stopped playing once I made my mil.

But is it expected that to do well in D1 we have to be able to FC the difficulty 10 song?

**Tasselfoot** · 06-1-2008, 06:47 PM

to answer the improve main round vs tie breaker question... main round takes precedence. you should always try to improve your main score first. the tie breaker is exactly that, a tie breaker. if 1 person improves their main score, then the 2 people are no longer tied.

and it likely will just be sprite doing the scores.... which, yes, will take a bit of time for the first round or two, with thousands of people submitting. but by week 3 or 4, it will be much faster. you'll deal with it, i'm sure.

it is starting the week of june 9th, as stated in the news post. we don't have an exact date, because we have to take the time to put everyone into their proper division.

Zab: the D1 difficulty 10 song will be the 10th and final song... only 2 people will be left in the division at that point. and, i honestly don't know if either will FC it. but I suspect at least 1 will.

gamer_4_life27 · 06-1-2008, 06:51 PM

Thanks Tass. So if I were to improve my score, and the other person didn't, I would move on.

And I can handle waiting a while for the first few rounds. Last time I think I got caught with a cheat because I remember playing a song that was assigned to me, and I beat the person's best score by a lot, and he topped my score by almost AAA'ing it or something crazy like that. But as long as I don't encounter one of those, and I play to my full potential, I think I'll do fine and make it to the final slot.

Good luck everyone. See you in the Tiers!

Personally, I just hope to pass the 1st round ^.^

gamer_4_life27 · 06-1-2008, 06:56 PM

YEAH!!! More than 600 people will be beaten by me!!!

ZaBasDa · 06-1-2008, 07:06 PM

You can't beat me if I'm in a lower division than you. But I will be beaten anyway.
