Like I said, I can't complain too much about his performance.

*edit* Lost. 7-1-0

Looks like 8-0 is unachievable.

I may be the next to challenge that, unless someone else is 6-0 or 7-0 already. I'm currently sitting at 5-0.

It's all a matter of luck, I'd already beaten Dev, and I saw that you'd already beaten the guys twice that you lost to. That said, I'm gonna try brawling now that I've lost.

We'll see if you can back that up in about 25 minutes.

Confidence is not one of Rikou's weak spots.

*edit* And neither is losing. Winner is me!

Congrats on the win. Though if losing isn't is weak spot, then you would still be undefeated, he is beatable.

Evolution Prime wrote:Evolution Prime vs Helldart

"Evolution Prime, you have embarrassed our most fierce warrior, Megatron, one too many times! You shall pay for your transgressions against the Decepticon Empire!" yelled Helldart.

"We shall see about..."

But before Evolution could finish his sentence, Helldart pounced at Evolution Prime. EP tried quickly to strike at Helldart with his Battle Blades, but the Decepticon was to fast for him and he missed badly as Helldart transformed into a jet and avoided his attack. In mid air, Helldart tranformed back and nailed the Autobot directly in the back of the head, knocking him to his knees. With the ferocity of as he started the match, Helldart ended it with a massive strafing run to finish Evolution Prime off before he could get back up.

"That one is for Megatron, Autobot scum. Have a nice time in the CR Chamber." scowled Helldart as he kicked EP in the chest plate.

With that, Helldart hands Evolution Prime his first loss, dropping him to 7-1-0.

Very entertaining, but clearly you haven't read Helldart's profile to know he wouldn't have yelled anything. still I hope you enjoyed your time in the CR Chamber.

as of this point, 2 losses, 4 wins, 2 shutouts. I am quite pleased.

and now Helldart challenges Stimulus Packagus of Orton's AWC Legacy or whatever it's called.

No I did not read his profile. I'm not going to put that much time into it.

No one is unbeatable. Winning more then you lose, however, that's how you know you're good. Good enough to job up a fight now and then to keep people thinking they have a chance too.

Good answer. :APPLAUSE:

Dammit, first loss. Oh well, 3-1 isn't too bad a start. :MAD:

Just in case people were wondering, this was his loss.

News Credits: 1 · by **Absolute Zero** » Fri May 22, 2009 1:52 am

Question on shutouts, just to clarify. If the enemy avoids, but does not deal damage, it does not count as a shutout, as they scored more then 0XP correct?

Correct.

Your opponent must not earn ANY xp.

That crappy Strafe was my undoing. I have a 3FP / 4 Strafe character who Strafes better than that! #-o

No, it's simply a case of the old school beating up the upstart arrogant young punk, i'm sure you can appreciate that.

Oh and your crappy inferior configuration.

You can retort, I can retort, and we can keep going back and forth but I know what that will lead to, Evolution Prime will stick his nose in and try to get a piece of CATalyst for payback for all the humiliation he's suffered over the years at the hands of The Freaks.

Damn, this was close to a shotout... 96% counts to that?

What exactly are the rules for upgrading?

Anything beyond no reseting or breaching lv7?

by **Nickolai** » Fri May 22, 2009 2:51 am

Instant revenge, voila! Just add murderous intent and stir briskly. :twisted:

Not that I've read, and I reread the rules a few times. As long as you don't reset and you don't go to level 7, you're good.

*Start Brag* 10-1-0 with 21 points.

That would be why I'm asking; I just want that clarified by the judges.

Bingo.

No resetting, and no upgrading your character to level 7. You can upgrade without resetting to your heart's content as long as it stays at level 6.

'tis but one loss.

I just went through the scoring thread and there's a few people who clearly need a refresh on the rules and scoring.

The Rules wrote:League & Scoring
You will fight in the arena only and may enter as many fights as you wish, and as often as you wish.
Results will be posted by participants, and must follow this pre-determined structure:
[Fight link], [winning commanders name], [losing commanders name], [score]
Failure to format results correctly will result in them not being counted.
(You may add as much detail/smacktalk about the fight as you wish as long as the result itself is obvious and is formatted correctly.)
For each fight you will score:
3pts - For a 'Shutout' (Your opponent scores 0xp)
2pts - For a standard 'Win'
1pt - (Each) If the match ends in a 'Timeout' (a 'Draw') regardless of the actual published result.
0pts - For a 'Defeat'
Your 'league' score will be your total score divided by your total number recorded matches and will be published to 2 decimal places. Ties will be resolved by highest number of wins.
The league will be updated periodically by the staff.

If any of that sounds confusing, PLEASE ASK. Do not assume things, I just pm'ed Psychout a few queries so he'll no doubt be in to clarify things but if you have any concerns then raise them.

And PLEASE, follow the scoring guidelines! We NEED you to do your bit so we can run this contest properly. If you don't it'll slow us down and that'll be very bloody annoying.

And if i'm annoyed i'll push to have you kicked out! And if Psychout's annoyed, well you don't want both of us agreeing, that tends to be a world ending thing.
