So it's 1 on 1?

Sounds good to me. I'll fish up the other friend codes for you too:

Turbos: 201926-809098
RPG: ...bah, it seems he didn't post his anywhere. Arse.

Also the rules look pretty good. I can't find any major loopholes.

You should have picked SNES mario for use in the tourney :O

um... I guess I'll practice yoshi falls?

Bilan · « **Reply #32 on:** October 06, 2006, 07:17:45 am »

The first match has been played :O!

The Results:

RPG 3 - 1 yse

yse · « **Reply #33 on:** October 06, 2006, 07:19:21 am »

Well, RPG and I have started the tourney off.

Yoshi Falls: yse 10 - RPG 5
Luigi's Mansion: RPG 10 - yse 5
Luigi Circuit: RPG 10 - yse 5
Baby Park: ...RPG 10 - yse 5

Total: RPG 35 - yse 25
RPG wins

I was nothing short of pathetic. Oh well.

Yoshi Falls-Genus
Luigi's Mansion-Genus (by heart attack closeness)
Luigi Circuit-Groudon
Baby Park-Genus

Final: 3-1 Genus

Good games groudon. You got some bad luck with items and I got some good luck, but such is life~

Oh, and the same here with the items. Yeah. Philosophical.

Groudon · « **Reply #35 on:** October 06, 2006, 03:20:19 pm »

Yeah, the items didn't like me. And that end of Luigi's Mansion was too close. Had I gotten that one miniturbo in, I would have won.

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #36 on:** October 06, 2006, 03:38:52 pm »

Ok, I've changed the scoring system a bit. Points are rewarded now based on individual wins/losses for each course. To quote verbatim...myself...here is the revised rule 7 (note the ommision of the now arbitrary 6):

7) Sets will be played "Round Robin" style. This means that everyone will try to play everyone else once. When posting the results in this topic, include who you faced, how many sets were played (only matters in the event of a double or triple draw), and the results of each set (either 2-2 all, 3-1 someone, or 4-0 someone). After everyone plays everyone else, or a week expires, a scoring system will be used to determine place based on each course (3 points for a win 0 points for a loss). For now, the bottom player will be dropped from each round or, in the event of a tie, a sudden death match consisting of 2 Figure 8's and 2 RR's will be played, the loser being eliminated.

I will now calculate current score.

Genus-9
RPG-9
Groudon-3
yse-3
Everyone else-0

*sigh* everyone but me gets perfectly timed items :(

I only won Luigi's mansion for this match. Genus won all else.

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #39 on:** October 06, 2006, 05:28:39 pm »

I just played PsyBorg.

Yoshi Falls-genus
Luigi's Mansion-PsyBorg
Luigi Circuit-Genus
Baby Park-Genus

3-1 Genus

Good games and bad luck Psy.

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #40 on:** October 06, 2006, 05:30:43 pm »

Ok, I just played RPG. In a RIVETING series.

Yoshi Falls-Genus
Luigi's Mansion-RPG
Luigi Circuit-Genus
Baby Park-Genus

3-1 Genus...again.

Good games...again.

Bilan · « **Reply #41 on:** October 06, 2006, 05:58:45 pm »

Indeed; score retotaling?

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #42 on:** October 06, 2006, 06:25:06 pm »

Ok, I can do a retallying with some crazy version 2 improvements!

The Score (v2.0 beta)

Genus:27 (12 courses left, max score 63)

RPG:12 (16 courses left, max score 60)

Groudon:3 (20 courses left, max score 63)

Psy:3 (20 courses left, max score 63)

Mike:3 (20 courses left, max score 63)

Turbos:0 (24 courses left, max score 72)

Thorn:0 (24 courses left, max score 72)

Enjoy the nail biting that will undoubtedly ensue.

Thorn · « **Reply #43 on:** October 06, 2006, 06:31:24 pm »

^Based on a set number of courses? Now THAT is a damned smart idea that I never would've thought of. I'll be on WiFi tomorrow, I swear.

Also I find it very appealing that nobody who has played has a perfect score. Should make for great competition.

PsyBorg · « **Reply #44 on:** October 06, 2006, 08:01:44 pm »

FOUR WINS IN A ROW AGAINST RPG.

Seriously though, he needs a real internet connection. I felt like I was time attacking with a few shells being used against me in between.

So, basically, that's Yoshi Falls, Luigi Mansion, Luigi Circuit, and Baby Park all being won by me once.

Bilan · « **Reply #45 on:** October 06, 2006, 08:02:51 pm »

Yeah, I might as well declare myself out of this tourny about now <_<

PsyBorg · « **Reply #46 on:** October 06, 2006, 08:08:17 pm »

~~Not like you should care, because really, this is just a plan to boost Genus' ego.~~

er um

i said nothing, its just me farting

KnucklesSonic8 · « **Reply #47 on:** October 06, 2006, 08:23:42 pm »

You all seem to be having so much fun! I feel so left out. :P

My sis is constantly pestering my father to get a DS for her but if she gets it, I'd also be able to use it and the first game I'll get is MKDS, for sure. I can't wait (more anticipated for the Wii but anyway) but until that time, keep me in mind. I may join you all at one point down the road, hopefully.

Otherwise, congrats to all winners. It seem slike you guys have close games, huh? Those items must be a nusiance sometimes too, I bet. :P

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #48 on:** October 06, 2006, 08:51:48 pm »

Knuckles/Sonic/8: items can be anything from mildly irritating to doomsday style. Most are either avoidable or easy to deal with. Though there's the occasional unavoidable item like a blue shell on a narrow straightaway or a red shell on a straightaway where you have no items. But eh, skill tends to help there.

And no, RPG, you're not out of it yet. Observe the woders of...the score!

THE SCORE (Version 2, Not Beta I promise)

Genus:27 (12 courses left, max score 63)

Psy:15 (16 courses left, max score 63)

RPG:12 (8 courses left, max score 36)

Groudon:3 (20 courses left, max score 63)

Mike:3 (20 courses left, max score 63)

Turbos:0 (24 courses left, max score 72)

Thorn:0 (24 courses left, max score 72)

If I were you, I'd root against Mike. Seriously.

Oh and just because you're out, doesn't mean your out~

Bilan · « **Reply #49 on:** October 07, 2006, 09:35:00 am »

...Im still basically out >_>

Thorn · « **Reply #50 on:** October 07, 2006, 02:39:19 pm »

35-25 win against genus. My loss was in Baby Park. All four matches were really item-reliant.

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #51 on:** October 07, 2006, 02:39:36 pm »

I'm waiting a while. Tonight around 7:00 EDT, I'm getting races in.

Thorn · « **Reply #53 on:** October 07, 2006, 04:52:29 pm »

35-25 win again vs. RPG, lost in GCN Luigi Circuit.

Groudon · « **Reply #54 on:** October 07, 2006, 07:17:45 pm »

Just finished racing PsyBorg.

1) Yoshi Falls (I won)
2) Luigi's Mansion (I won)
3) Luigi Circuit (I won)
4) Baby Park (PsyBorg won)

Final results: 3-1

Had I not snaked into 2 bananas on the last lap of Baby Park, I would have won.

You know what this means (in Spanish)?

PsyBorg · « **Reply #56 on:** October 07, 2006, 10:34:24 pm »

Fought with mike. He used the item-based luigi kart. Despite his well timed items, I still got 4-0 because I used Egg 1.

Also, genus, might I mention that you didn't count my Baby Park win in the fight against Groudon, and the current amount of points for me (pre-mike match) is 3 lower than it should have been.

Thorn · « **Reply #57 on:** October 07, 2006, 10:36:14 pm »

^Adding on, my match against RPG (3-1) wasn't factored into my points either. If only this was automated. I scored DIY for a while, it's a PITA by hand.

yse · « **Reply #58 on:** October 07, 2006, 11:28:52 pm »

yse vs genus:

Yoshi Falls: genus 10, yse 5 (this was bs, I couldn't get any items on lap 1)
Luigi's Mansion: yse 10, genus 5 (due to him throwing a red shell the wrong way or something)
Luigi Circuit: yse 10, genus 5 (and the same again!)
Baby Park: yse 10, genus 5

TOTAL: yse 35, genus 25

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #59 on:** October 07, 2006, 11:55:43 pm »

I am humiliated. I call double bs on Red Shell shenanigans.

If you just press X, without any forward/backward input, why do red shells automatically fire backwards?

Seriously!

Oh and SDM and I are working out how this tourney will work. We've got the groudwork set, and it's up to you to live through the rollercoster. For example, did you know there are no teams this time around?

Anyways, enough complaining and pandering, it's time for THE SCORE.

The Score (Mental Math Version 4 or 5 or Something)

genus:33 (4 Courses Left, Max Score 45)

Psy:30 (8 Courses Left, Max Score 54)

Thorn:18 (16 Courses Left, Max Score 66)

RPG:15 (4 Courses Left, Max Score 27)

Groudon:12 (16 Courses Left, Max Score 60)

Mike:12 (16 Courses Left, Max Score 60)

Turbos:0 (24 Courses Left, Max Score 72)
