Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tournament

I think I'm going to give up solving this. too much other random HW to bother solving it..

Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tournament

Updated to here. Nice to see people going back over songs. Tass you've got a tie for first going with Fractal.

Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tournament

you didn't count my points for solving round 10.... i should have 38, not 34. you also did not count dabigpig's round 10.


i also improved my szamar, but want to get it better than 7. it's currently 8-0-0-1. i've had runs of 4 and 6 goods, both with misses after 1000 combo.

Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tournament

Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tournament

Oh shoot, I improved my Szamar too, had this tournament as incentive as well as Tier Points, will upload




Sorry Tass, will have to improve past 2 now

Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tournament

You should be able to AAA it easily.

Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tournament

Except that I really despise it and the staircases are extremely hard to PA =/ Thanks for the vote of confidence though Someday I'll get around to it; hopefully before the tournament is over, although if it's not going to bump me up a rank in the standings, then I won't worry about it until much later.876

EDIT: Only if 09876 could manage to beat my score for round 10 would I need to AAA it to hold my standings, so I'm guessing it will be faaaaaar in the future when I ever play this again.

Once again, I recorded it in one spot, but forgot to carry it over to the other fields, fixed now.

And jonathanasdf, I'm not seeing where I missed points of yours, PM me what failed to update?

Re: Devonin's Critical Thinking Tournament

I was bored, so I updated the scoring based on 3 alternate scoring systems. All had me far and away in 1st, but while Fractal and solidly in 2 of them, he is in 3rd by 1 point in the 3rd. Dabigpig is in 4th in the 1st, behind dore.... but 3rd in the middle and 2nd in the third (although likely the last 2 FFR rounds will wind up knocking him into 3rd in that as well, but very close).

You can also see Yukari being decently close (over 2/3) in the 1st, and progressively farther behind in the others.

Which all makes sense, since the 1st gives the most weight to FFR, the 2nd gives solid weight to FFR, but penalizes the ultra good by nerfing AAA value, but it helps those who are only average at FFR. And the 3rd gives 2/3 weight to mental, with only 1/3 to FFR, even with no AAA nerfing.

i took 2 semesters of java in college, as well as a semester on website programming (css, javascript, etc). wound up with a computer applications minor to go along with my finance degree and physics minor. that was plenty for me.
