IMO speed is a killer in these tournaments. Once you fall behind it's easy to get discouraged, and then it all starts to wind down.

As fun as speed is, I am almost tempted to believe that completion on metric of close calls is far more intense. I'm going to see how true this is with my upcoming tourney.

Yeah, it'll be properly run this time, too. I'll probably still name it the second Omnipwn tournament, because last time I tried starting it, I lost wind before I even started. This time around, I'm going to plan things out a lot more carefully before I kick it up. It'll be fun, promise

technically, no. but you have no shot to win... likely mathematically. and definitely realistically.


edit: so, by my calculations... i am 1280 points off of the mental max, including the 10 mentals and the 3 other mental rounds. next closest is Fractal, 1635 off the max + loss of points from mental 9... so another -750 for -2335. i also have 4 1sts and 3 3rds, currently, on the 7 FFR rounds... or -570. For a total of -1850 off the max possible. Not too shabby.


edit2: even if SD submits all 13 mentals and then gets 1st on all 7 FFR rounds... his max possible score is -2492. Which means I'd need to lose over 640 points in addition to him solving everything... and still assuming nobody submits a mental before him.

If I had actually turned in some of the stuff I had at the last second, I would have won credits.
