Gben 20 Posted February 22, 2008 sooo many mistakes we both made in the battle of the noobs!!! But inferno, in my limited mp game time - you're the first to stealth the flamers against me, so I was totally unprepared for it. Luk3us your commentary was pretty kind in the end.

Gben 20 Posted February 24, 2008 Wow - I just checked the rankings and I'm equal first at the moment, until that is, inferno v luk3us. . . . I actually thought my tourney was over yesterday when I discovered a 2yr had decided to insert my C&C disc inside the video player... in the gap between the video cradle and the rest of the machine. I now have a deep scratch about an inch long across the disc. It plays fine, but I don't it's going to re-install nicely the next time. So my tourney continues with... the bye... and I'm going to have to consider selling the matching grandfather possibly, so I can afford to buy an EA C&C pack sooner rather than later... woe is me.

sith_wampa 6 Posted February 24, 2008 It's ok, there are plenty of options other than suicide, TB. Don't feel so bad about yourself. Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) I just don't know how to deal with the pain... Hey! At least you ain't in first place! Edited February 24, 2008 by TheBlackout Share this post Link to post
Inferno 22 Posted February 24, 2008 Nah, you don't wish that upon anyone Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted February 24, 2008 Yaa for the next round. I actually thought my tourney was over yesterday when I discovered a 2yr had decided to insert my C&C disc inside the video player... in the gap between the video cradle and the rest of the machine. I now have a deep scratch about an inch long across the disc. It plays fine, but I don't it's going to re-install nicely the next time. If you can make an ISO from the DVD, then you should be sweet, as you can just mount the ISO and install from that, as it doesn't authenticate the DVD, but you will need the scratched DVD to play as it as to authenticate it. But if its as bad as it sounds, you probably won't be able to make an ISO... Share this post Link to post

Luk3us 63 Posted February 25, 2008 Thy and Inferno played before. Early Disintergator rush killed his economy and my seekers cleaned up the rest... I just watch Crdoghan and Blackout's last game, lol... Early flame rush... Sneaky. Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted February 25, 2008 Yea the guy I was sparring with never did that so I was really caught off guard, worked to his advantage though. Share this post Link to post
sith_wampa 6 Posted February 25, 2008 I was practicing that strategy alot this weekend and I found the only ways to possibly stop it are to intercept the emissary or massive bike/pitbull rush my main harvesters. Share this post Link to post
Gben 20 Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) But if its as bad as it sounds, you probably won't be able to make an ISO... This is what I'm fearing... but I'm happy in my ignorance for the moment. EDIT: :omg: I think we should just cancel the tourney due to lack of interest right now... and this statement has nothing to do with the fact I have just checked the stats and rankings, and discovered thanks to Overcow I'm in 1st place!!!

No. I'm too close to winning. So once we get through these, take the top four and do what, brackets or round robin again? Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted February 26, 2008 The top four will face off. The top player plays the bottom player, and the two in the middle face off. I think we should do a BO3, for hte semi's and finals. Share this post Link to post
Gben 20 Posted February 26, 2008 (Perhaps not enough sarcasm in my post above? How about when I'm being sarcastic in future, I will raise my left hand? Not my right hand - that will be for irony. Everyone cool with that?) BO3 - best of 3. I think that's only fair. And I still want to watch the live broadcast of the grand final if it's doable with schedules. Share this post Link to post
Gben 20 Posted February 26, 2008 ok well technically it's a 10min broadcast delay... but I want to cheer & jeer from the sidelines. Lets see if this really is a SPORT!?! Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted February 26, 2008 (edited) Well its not really a sport if you can't get ****** off and start punching the **** out of the other guy. And how is that you are still in first spot Gben? When is the battle of the Aussies set to take place also? Edited February 26, 2008 by Luk3us Share this post Link to post

And I still want to watch the live broadcast of the grand final if it's doable with schedules. I don't really see how BO3 is more fairer than anything else... You could of won the first game but lost the other two, thus many you would of won single elimination. Kind of not fair? What if they played best of seven and you can back and swept the other games? It's just a matter of who played better than who at a certain times (unless someone just completely sux ). BO3... I guess... But you have to play three games back to back. So it goes by fast(er).
