The arcade now has a tournament system, where all I have to do is put in the UserIDs who will participate, and have it record everything for me ^^
up to 8 people can participate with the current version. Basically all I want to do right now is test out how the system works.
All I need is 8 people to conduct in a practice tournament, so I know how to work the damn thing :p
The game will be Asteroids. The first 8 people to reply here will take part in the experiment (so if you don't plan on participating, DON'T REPLY!!! :p )

now to put in everyone's UserID....................................DONE
oh lookie....you can set up matches between 2 people too. I guess I'll do 1 vs 8, 2 vs 7, ect ^^....also it's a bracket tournament
K...everyone is set up in the list above, so I guess everyone should open up the arcade and see if there is a link somewhere where you can play ;)

October 7th, 2005, 16:36
OK, one word of warning: don't play just after you wake up, unless you want a crummy score like mine.:p Just under 7,000 ain't to great.
Metalmurphy
October 7th, 2005, 19:45
Hum the bracket advance isnt working very well :p i ended up in the wrong bracket after beating the first match
Nevermore
October 7th, 2005, 20:02

Chrono Archangel
October 7th, 2005, 21:42

Metalmurphy
October 7th, 2005, 21:42

Nevermore
October 8th, 2005, 00:44

Player-X
October 8th, 2005, 08:24
Somehow I doubt anyone can beat nevermore
Prafull
October 8th, 2005, 10:52
/me stabs Kirby
You didnt find any other opponent for me ? I could have beaten atleast the plotty guy. ;)
BTW, The old problem is back again, Metalmurphy is being shown as the winner of cloudvii v/s xrock . His name should have been in the second column and not the first.
cloudvii
October 8th, 2005, 15:50
Finished my first 2 games, won't play the third now :p . Where's Xrock btw?
Side note : @ prafull, maybe the winner of my match with Xrock would take the place of Metal's place :S
Side note 2 : Look at nevermore's score Oo
Metalmurphy
October 8th, 2005, 17:52
Well nevermore's is the game champion :p

October 10th, 2005, 21:07

Metalmurphy
October 10th, 2005, 21:19
oO awsome, i wonder what happens if someone fromt the other bracket qualifies now lol. since nevermore us ocupying both slots in the final xD
Needs some tweaking Kirby
Chrono Archangel
October 10th, 2005, 23:06
The tournament thing is buggy...
only kirby can read this :evil: everyone else, dont you dare read it!!
if you submit your score (after your third and last try) and press back and play again. if you make a better score it will overwrite your other one. so basicly you get an infinite amount of tries......
nway, congrats Nevermore :) there was really no chance i could win.
now im not a big Asteroids player but id like to know if you guys use a special technique. i kinda try and not move the space ship at all and just shoot the asteroids that are heading towards me. it works well until the small alien space ships come and shoot me down :S
Metalmurphy
October 11th, 2005, 00:12
Well my tecnique is dont try to destroy the little ships lol. Just let them go away, also i dont move my ship much.
Nevermore
October 11th, 2005, 02:46
well maybe if xrock finishes his turn everything will be back to normal..
Tip and tricks? I don't have any besides running around like an idiot and getting close enough to the rocks to blast them into peices.
cloudvii
October 11th, 2005, 15:03
Congratulations Xrock :) . That means I lost :p
Well, at least we helped Kirby test the tournament. And I hope he can find all the errors happened :S
Nevermore
October 11th, 2005, 17:16
c'mon xrock finish your turn :P
Metalmurphy
October 11th, 2005, 17:29
Yeah i agree, i wanna kick nevermore's ass ^^
oh and no cheating with Chrono Archangel tecnique said xD
/me goes practice

hey! youw erent supposed to read that. i think what i did is the reason Nevermore is in both slots also. since he beat me twice :S (after my third try i was at 18000, then to test my theory i got 19000....so he won twice)

Nevermore won by default.....
take these bats and thank Chrono for mentioning the bug during the tournament ;)
unfortunately for us, ibProArcade was built originally for Invision Power Board, and vBulletin support is considered "as-is".....which means that the vBulleting version is the last one to receive the fixes and updates.
Now that we know what is messed up, I guess there will not be any tournaments until 2.5.2 or 3.0 is released
Nevermore
October 11th, 2005, 21:25
yes! I WIN! :D
for my prize I want a picture of Kirby with a paperbag on his head :D
xRock
October 11th, 2005, 21:31
heh sorry to keep you guys waiting, especially Metalmurphy.
So there ya go the road is clear for the two finalists to lock horns and see who's the best. Good luck to both Nevermore and Metalmurphy.

:heh: sorry bout that...
you can still make tournaments. i like to beleive the members here are mature enough to accept defeat. (plus if someone tries to cheat and fails, we'll know. then we can kick his a$$)
Metalmurphy
October 12th, 2005, 01:25
Well, the arcade needs some fixing, we're not sure what happened was really becouse of what Chrono did, after all i did end up in the wrong bracket and didnt do anything wrong.
Warn us when these are fixed Kirby.
Common nevermore, I wanna see if you can beat ur self xD

well it does make sens... see after my three turns I was at 18 000pts so Nevermore was declared the winner and put in the left slot. then well i tested to see if my theory would work...and well i scored 19 000pts. my old score was overwritten and Nevermore (a new one) was sent to the right slot (cuz the left one was taken)
nway, beleive me, i didnt want to ruin the game or cheat. just wanted to see if it would remember that i played my three games
now Kirby, make a Tetris tournament so i can at least have a chance of winning :)
Kurbster
October 12th, 2005, 01:37
yes! I WIN! :D
for my prize I want a picture of Kirby with a paperbag on his head :Dyou just had to pick something easy....why me...
K, fine, you get your paper bag picture thing....maybe tomorrow, but today is not your day (because it's dark outside, and artificial light doesn't work well with my camera) ;)

Nevermore, feel free to send me the pics trough msn :p .
Can we make the tournaments as a 1 match per one. As in, X person has to challenge Y guy. If X wins he'll have to challenge the winner of another match later when it's finished. And so on. That'd kill many bugs
Nevermore
October 12th, 2005, 18:21
I wont, It's all mine soon as I receive it :D
