Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

You forget one thing, neither Jon or myself are patient. :/

thats so true. I get bored after 10 levels of monsters den.... 1 entire night? no thanks....

and theres my score ^^ points to 2 posts up

This is NEAR PERFECT item usage. Maybe I could've used one of them a bit earlier, bc my mouse screwed up, but i doubt theres any higher score possible than maybe 9700

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

I kinda miss Kongregate back when I first started out and had no badges. Whoring out all those games was a lot of fun -- on rainy nights over Winter Break, I'd stay up with movies/tv going, a nice supply of food, some music, and hours of Kongregate. Now it's too much of a waiting game.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

Problem is that just looking at the high scores list isn't enough to tell what's real and what's hacked. As arrogant as it sounds, I usually go by the metric of "Whoever has a much better score than me, after I whore a game out like fuc, is hacking," and it's usually true (I've been wrong maybe 5% of the time using this metric. On games like Micro Olympics, for instance, I realized my item-usage order wasn't optimal even though I thought it was.)

, but how much higher than your score were they. Also there are some things that you might not know about like how I did not know about wall jumping in FPA. :/ It's still possible to get sub-150 without it.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

Well that's what I mean -- sometimes I miss something that would allow for a higher score. If I see scores slightly ahead of mine, it usually gives me incentive to figure out what smaller optimizations I might be missing. But really huge score jumps make me either think, "Ok I missed something big," or "This biznatch's haxxin"

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

or like how you thought your 50 on Compulse was optimal. .

this thread is now about how and when we've corrected Rubix.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

I didn't think I had truly optimized it -- I just knew it was near-optimal. That was on my first run-through of the game too, btw, and very quickly run-through.

There were only a few levels in there I had incorrectly thought were optimal (the one where you needed to let it bounce on the ground first), some other level, and the last level (I had to actually throw it "over the head" at a weird angle).

I still don't know if 44 is truly optimal, either. I'm almost certain there's at least one more place to reduce the load, but I'd have to check every level incredibly carefully. There's one level that we both have 2 on that I'm almost certain can be done in 1.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

no i checked. I thought that level could be done in 1... wasted SO long figuring out every single combination... every PIXEL of placement was checked. Nope, just that little bit of height that you're missing. If you had like 2 pixels more height on that bounce it'd be doable on 1....


I am happy to inform I got one more....

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

Do you know what level I am referring to?

[jonathanasdf]

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

I think i might...

is it possibly 9?

Enlighten me xD

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

Scoreboard so far:

 
jon =                4940
     spin green            1900
     spin yellow           1420
     spin red              1620

commander =          4910 
     spin green            1570
     spin yellow           2060
     spin red              1280

tass =               3630
     spin green            1490
     spin yellow           1500
     spin red               640

Tass should post his scores...

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

I could beat all those scores probably -- I'll whore it up later or something

Tip:

You have to be lucky for green. Yellow takes some skill, and red is a mixture of both.

 
commander =          5130 
     spin green            1570
     spin yellow           2280
     spin red              1280

jon =                4940
     spin green            1900
     spin yellow           1420
     spin red              1620

tass =               3630
     spin green            1490
     spin yellow           1500
     spin red               640

I'll probably try to get 3000 on that game. :P

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

red is no skill for me. As long as the astroids don't block up the whole screen, i can go forever. also, what was that very stupid comment about level 1? -_________-

I misread both of your posts so I deleted mine. How did you see it? I deleted it the very second after I posted.

Re: Omnipwn Tournament: Dual Core

its called email notification xD

Deleting threads don't help for that.

xD

Btw I believe i might be able to get better than 2250 on red... that is, if i whore it long enough....
My friend at class was like bet you can never beat his score in astroids (you avoid astroids coming down from the top of the screen xD). By the end of one math class i got over triple his score xD
lol that was funny...

LoL Commander its my red vs ur yellow xD

But i didn't even spend 1/5 as long on yellow as I have on red... maybe if i spend longer...
I did manage to FC Musik Marathon after all, and this is much less strict than that. I am immune to spinning >:]

and yep this was the first try after I saw your score >:] muahahahahahaha xDDDDD
