House's Arcade Madness Tournament- II

MarkHouseMD · 04-18-2008, 01:47 AM

Finals

Sorry for the nice long delay in the change of events, but I came down with some form of a flu bug over the weekend, but I have now recovered. So I present to you all the Final round of the Second House's Arcade Madness 2 Tournament. Once again I would just like to thank everyone for participating in this tournament. I tried to get some good games going, which I think I did pretty good for the most part, but if I ever do another tournament like this, I'll pay close attention to games on the web.

I would like to congratulate Commandersa1, Tasselfoot, and Gun92 on making it into the Semi-Finals. Unfortunately one of you is gonig to have to go, and in seems as though Gun threw in the white flag, so I will now present him with thrid place, so good job on that. As for Commander and Tass, you guys will have quite the competition on your hands now. Thank tizzy for this one, because he notified of this awsome game at the last minute. I present to you for the Final Round of the House's Arcade Madness 2 Tournament:

Red

The point of this game is more or less don't die, and might I add at specific parts of this game it does become rather hard not to do so. The point of the game is to shoot the balls coming at your turret back up into the air, but be careful use to many bullets at once and you will run clean out of ammo and shooting power. You'll also notice that there is no score. This is true. You do not get scored until the very end of the tournament, and it is based upon how many seconds you lived for. So if you got the nuts, see if you can survive. Keep posting and I'll keep updating, that way any spectators can see what's going on.

Good luck to you commandersa1 and Tasselfoot. I will post the winner of the round, and the second place right above guns name after the finals are over.

The end time for the Finals is Thursday May 15 at 12:00am CDT.

Good Luck

House

FINALISTS

1st-
2nd-
3rd- Gun92

================================================== ===========================================
Procedures
-This tournament will be in FFA format. There will be 8 Rounds, each lasting 3 Days

-Once the game is posted, you are to play the game and try to get the highest score/lowest time possible

-When you think you have a score you want to submit, take a screenshot of it and post it in the appropriate thread or send it via PM to me. Here are the steps for taking a screenshot:
1. Press the Print Screen button on your keyboard. IF you're using a Mac, I believe the input is Command+Shift+3. The command button is the apple
2. Go into Paint (Start>Programs>Accessories) or another imaging program and hit Ctrl+V
3. Save the SS on your computer
4. Go to an image hosting site, such as Photobucket, ImageShack, or Xs.to (my favorite; it saves picture info without you having to sign-up) and upload the SS.
5. Post the image in this thread or send it to either of us

-As always, you can submit as many SS's as you want, but we will accept the last one as your Round score. If it's accidentally worse than before, you better fix it fast!

-If, for some reason, two people are EXACLTY tied, and the Round ends, their scores will be wiped and they will get 1 extra day to submit another score. If they are tied again, both will advance by default.

Prizes
Ah, yes. The juicy underbelly of tournaments... the Prize Fund, will consist of a start lot of 35,000 credits, of which is divided up below.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1st: 20,000 Credits
2nd: 10,000 Credits
3rd: 5,000 Credits

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I will (of course) accept any and all donations. Every single bit of your donations will be shoved into the prize fund. Hell, if I get enough, we can even open up 4th Place! It all depends on you, though. Also realize that this is totally optional.

Please join, and let's get our asses off of FFR once in a while!!

First in, first served.

**sumzup** · 04-18-2008, 09:31 AM

Are you going to actually finish the tournament this time?

**Gun92** · 04-18-2008, 12:40 PM

In, why not.

FrenzyMidget · 04-18-2008, 02:03 PM

Mark. I know you're wanting to be having a successful return to FFR here, but please stop making numerous tournaments. Make one tournament and make that one succesfull rather than managing your efforts into 3-4 all at the same time. Also, this splits the prize pot and makes it less appealing to players wanting to sign up for the tournament when all they can win is no more than pocket credits.

I didn't mean to be too critical about it but concentrate on one tournament and make it successful and take your extra time to actually enjoy playing FFR and get better or else Spain will lose.

Btw, I'm not signing up I just wanted to comment.

Isn't this your 4th running tournament at the same time..

Commandersa1 · 04-18-2008, 07:45 PM

In, it will most likely fail though.

MarkHouseMD · 04-18-2008, 11:18 PM

Okay for the record, I have only two tournaments up and running right now. I'm not actually trying to be a tournament whore. Let me make sure this is right, to make sure I have all of the proper people on the list. lxDestinyxl, Gun92, sumzup, commandersa1, Tassselfoot, pomnibuv1, and sk8it. Correct?
