I plan to try to do better this round. The items were the main causes of how bad I did (whether it was the other person getting too many good items in 2nd or me getting crappy items in 2nd). That and the stupid mistakes (crashing into one of the inside walls on Baby Park or a fucked-up miniturbo in a dead-heat race [like against genus on Luigi's Mansion in the last turn]). Expect me to do much better this next round. I'm actually surprised myself at how bad I did in round 1.

OKAY ROUND TWO HAS STARTED.

And with no cheap opposition, my "skill" level will probably show through here. X)

Also, yse, big mistake on my part. I can't make it tonight.

Raced Thorn.

Quote from: genus's rules in 1st post

For now, the bottom player will be dropped from each round...

How long is now? I don't wanna die! *sniff*

*thinks to self*
Hmmm... 16+12+8+4+0=40 matches, times 3=120 points between the five of us...
24'll be the average point value... I have 6, so if win six of the next eight... I'll be average, and genus is already above 24... meaning somebody has to get less than 24 to even that out...

It's settled! I aim to win six of my last eight. I screwed up nicely so far, but I can catch up, I know it.

Not to say you didn't win by a "small margin" several times either. See Cheep Cheep Beach when my red shell went retarded and he also won in the desert stage by a "small margin" too.

Groudon · « **Reply #103 on:** October 09, 2006, 07:37:31 pm »

When I said "by a small margain," I meant "with the winner just inches ahead."

Then I only meant it for the desert stage. There is still no excuse for my red shell being an idiot, though. :(

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #105 on:** October 09, 2006, 08:36:40 pm »

Apparently, there are some rumors going around...can anyone fill me in on what's going on?

I call BS on you in CCB. Sometime on the second lap you stopped to let me get into first.

Note: I will say nothing more regarding the "leaked" information when asked, and will not change what was planned for the tourney. Do not mention it, and carry on as though nothing were said.

I don't recall.

Thorn · « **Reply #114 on:** October 10, 2006, 03:12:13 pm »

^I seem to recall much talk in chat about this. Nothing more out of me, though *zips lips*

Me vs. Psyborg
Cheep Cheep Beach: Me
Desert Hills: Psyborg
DK Pass: Me
GBA Peach Circuit: Me

3-1 for Me.

Also, yse, since I never seem to get on chat at the same time as you (I have stuff to do at night, sorry), lemme make it known that if by some weird chance I encounter you on WiFi, it's ranked. You'll hafta sweep me in all four levels AND the tiebreaker to avoid last place and possible elimination (genus hasn't said anything yet!).

General Throatstomper · « **Reply #115 on:** October 10, 2006, 04:48:39 pm »

Hey hey hey, you are not insightful enough to realise what a given player needs to do to advance to the next round. And I didn't say that; I thought you guys split 2-2.

The Score (No inferences needed)
genus:33
Groudon:33
Psy:21
Thorn:15 (4 courses left, max score 27)
mike:3 (4 courses left, max score 15)

Play out your match Thorn and mike, regardless of what you think will happen; you may be thrown a sudden and unexpected twist! *grumblegrumble*

In case you guys are wondering, and in part due to the recent rumors, here are everyone's total scores as of now.

Total Scores
genus-66
Groudon-60
PsyBorg-57
Thorn-54 (max 66 by end of round)
Mike-27 (max 39 by end of round)
RPG-21

Like I said, play your best no matter what the situation seems like.

Oh, and I suppose it's about time I picked the round 3 courses...I'll be asking for numbers in the room.

Edit: courses picked and numbers fixed.

Groudon · « **Reply #116 on:** October 11, 2006, 07:11:41 pm »

Come on, mike. Race so we can get on with round 3.

Thorn · « **Reply #117 on:** October 11, 2006, 09:56:18 pm »

Okay, I can't spend my life in chat waiting for a match, so here's my Thursday schedule, in east US time:

Not available 12 am - 3 pm
AVAILABLE
Break sometime between 5 and 6 pm for dinner
AVAILABLE
Parents want PC off around 8:30-9 pm

Post when you want this bout (so I can tell my bro when to give me the PC), and I'll try to meet you tomorrow. Worst case scenario, from Friday to Sunday, no school (staff meeting Friday ftw), so meet me at a time during which I'd be awake and I can do it.

yse · « **Reply #118 on:** October 12, 2006, 12:50:08 am »

Hm.

8:30 your time works out to about 10:30 here. I could be on before then. 7-8 your time sounds good.

Thorn · « **Reply #119 on:** October 12, 2006, 08:32:47 pm »

The results!

Cheep Cheep Beach: Thorn
Desert Hills: yse (had the same glitch again, in the same level... my game effed up? Ah well.)
DK Pass: Thorn
GBA Peach Circuit: Thorn

Genus can explain from here.
