Omnipwn Tournament (100,000 Credit Grand Prize) - Page 25

EI_Tizzy · 10-3-2007, 10:55 PM

Edit: Once again, another nice improvement!

Also, for some of the people out there having trouble racking up the big scores, try this: If you can't decide whether a bomb will be comboed with another explosion or not, just shoot another missle at it. Really, you'll let a lot less bombs slip through. OF course, playing this game many many times will have the same effect.

MrRubix · 10-4-2007, 03:25 AM

Points updated, now with average rank. Updating this stuff takes a while, please be patient!

Since it's a needless hassle to keep track of who hasn't submitted scores yet, I just cleared all the inactive names and made the tournament permanently open-join. So, whoever wants to participate can -- I'll simply add your name and whatever you accomplish to the list. I'm using an Excel spreadsheet I made to crunch the by-round data so I can cough up a totals list more easily.

It seems like Kekeb is about 4000 points higher than the average -- the mental challenge rounds are worth more points than speed rounds, so be on the lookout for your chance to pull ahead!

So if you didn't get to sign up, you can still participate if you'd like. You can always get partial points for late rounds.

Ack, I'll probably do better later

**Mck6** · 10-4-2007, 08:58 AM

DAMN... so close

can i get teh bonus anyway?

MrRubix · 10-4-2007, 12:11 PM

That is quite close, but I must stick with the goals for now until I see how everyone else does. If I've made a goal way too hard that hardly anyone can get, then I'll probably lower it slightly. I usually aim for at least 2, 3 people to hit the bonus if it's a really hard one.

EI_Tizzy · 10-4-2007, 12:18 PM

MrRubix · 10-4-2007, 12:20 PM

Hahahhaa, indeed

Just for reference guys, if you're able to squeeze an extra 10,000 in the game, you're getting like ~667 points, which is pretty significant really

EI_Tizzy · 10-4-2007, 12:30 PM

Well, if neither me nor Kekeb improve, I'll only be 200 points behind him after this round... and in 2nd place

XBmaster · 10-4-2007, 12:35 PM

This is improved

EI_Tizzy · 10-4-2007, 12:38 PM

I was so angry too... I had my 19x chain going, so every other bomb after that would've been 1,000 + points each! I doubted myself and decided that one of the bombs would be hit by an explosion... which it didn't. I then proceeded to lose all my health in 4 seconds T.T

MrRubix · 10-4-2007, 12:50 PM

I've updated the ranks now also showing you which rounds you have completed and which you have not. If you're missing a number, it means you're missing that round and should consider going back for some partial points!

I love excel

Anyways guys try to get the Blitz scores up -- the range of scores this round is pretty sick, you gotta keep Kekeb and EI_Tizzy on their toes :P You guys should at least be hitting 50K+ consistently if you have the right strategy down :P (after that point IMO it becomes largely luck, esp past 60K)

**emerald000** · 10-4-2007, 01:05 PM

I will get that bonus! And also, I understand what you feel Tizzy. Missed a bomb, and once you do so, your life expectancy is lower than 5 seconds...

Fractal_Monkey · 10-4-2007, 01:09 PM

I see what you mean, Rubix. I think this gets me another 500 points over my old score.

EI_Tizzy · 10-4-2007, 01:09 PM

I wouldn't doubt what Rubix says... except that my score actually wasn't very lucky. After 60,000, I swear to god I couldn't chain them together! They were always in horrible spots... however, if you can shoot them INDIVIDUALLY fast enough, you can still get the combo mulitplier.

Also, great going emerald! I think you'll catch us sooner or later... I'm just hoping to remain Top 5 for a while. KK, ima go catch Kekeb now bai

MrRubix · 10-4-2007, 01:13 PM

Yeah I think the game starts to increase the dispersion along the x axis in terms of where they start falling -- chains are harder to come by.

Fractal: You've got a potential 1300 more points to nail for Round 1 if you'd like
Nice job emerald btw, and wtf crazy jump xbmaster

XBmaster · 10-4-2007, 01:20 PM

Crazy jump because the first time I sat down to play, I only got 2 rounds in. Now that I've played it a few more times I'm getting better.

Improved again

I want that bonus.
