flyby's League / Re: Regular Season Coming to a Close

« on: April 28, 2009, 05:26:53 pm »

I am pro committees. Also yeah, for the finals, I will be making sure to choose a level that both parties have access to.

I am pro committees telling me what levels should be excluded. We still have a month to 6 weeks til the summer league starts, so start committeeing and get back to me! :D

Also I am considering doing 2 levels (1 2D 1 3D level) for each round of the finals. My concern that it woudl be too much to in such a short amount of time. I suppose I am looking more at single players, as teams would just take one each. So, thoughts?

There has also been a mini-stir about including top 16 out of 19 players. I am wondering how much of a concern this is to the league people as whole, and how much it is just a minor issue concerning a few people. So, thought about that as well.

flyby's League / Regular Season Coming to a Close

« on: April 27, 2009, 02:41:52 am »

We're just about to start Week 5, and after that will be the final week of League :O :O :O. Thanks everyone for sticking it out. It's been pretty fun!

I'm gonna give you all a basic idea of how the finals are going to work. The top 16 players/teams will make it into the finals TOURNAMENT, and will be seeded according to their rankings. Each round will probably last 4-5 days (I may make this longer if people need them to be longer because of inability to compete in the time frame), and it will consist of two players/teams going to head, according to seed (1 vs 16, 2 vs 15 etc etc, works exactly like a March Madness bracket). They will be competing in one level (This format is still subject to change). How the level will be determined is yet to be determined. I am still trying to figure out a way to make it as fair as possible.

I'm also starting to think about the summer league, so any suggestions for changes or tweaks in format for the next league would be appreciated. I know Rolken has suggested that there should be less levels, so there will be more competition (especially on the 3D side), my concern being that it will leave people with the inability to compete at times. I also need a compendium list of levels that need to be avoided. I cannot keep track of all the PMs that I have discussing these things with people. I know where RR's is for SSR, but any other game, I would love a list of levels to stay away from for the Summer league. As a note: a glitch-based time is not a reason to stay away from a particular level. If the glitch is luck-based to the point where no one has any idea how to get it, then yes, it could be considered. Basically, give a justification for the level to not be included as well. (-hunting- is a sufficient reason for hunting levels >_>).

Thanks everyone for your participation. :D It's been fun~

Things are still really wonky, and I am aware of most of the stuff, so if you would save your observations until I have announced that things are fully functional, hopefully most of your concerns should be taken care of! In the mean time, teams please get into contact with me to set up your account for you to be able to submit for the League subsite. Get together and decide on a password together, and then you can give that to me. Thanks~

And everyone thank Rolken and Gerbil for making this subsite possible! :D It will make you get your results very quickly in the weeks to come, so be sure and thank them!

What is the word "misspelling" for, if it just falls under typo? That is a ridiculous supposition. If someone thought the word was spelled "everywere" and typed it "everywhere" on accident, "everywhere" would be a typo.

League has officially started!

Achievements up for grabs:

.75 points for each new game you (or your team) competes in (thus you can get this a total of 21 times in the whole league if you compete in every game that is offered)
3 points for beating a TSC Record on a level. (5 points if it's a game with no centiseconds)

The points for these achievements are subject to change to make sure they are working well in with the rest of the competition. New achievements to be added each week at the start of league!

If you haven't signed up yet, you can still sign up all this week, and just submit your times by the deadline. Good luck! (Next week I may grace you with an audio announcement of the levels...if I can find my microphone >:( ).

AND...BEGIN!

Well...I agree that werster typoes more than Stefan, but I also would like to point out that genus's method is flawed. Pointing out "grammatical" flaws is not pointing out typoes. <_< Get a better definition of typo, and then count. I agree with the conclusion, though. >_> That is no reason to accept a horrible argument though!

As for levels that seem like poor competition, if you look at the game list, and have any suggestions for levels that should not be included, you can send me a PM. Please also include justification, so I know it's not just because you personally don't like it. There seems to be a bit of a stir about Twinkle Park and Hidden Palace (I am not surprised as these come from games where I didn't have anyone to consult with). I will consider changing them, unless anyone has real concerns about them being changed before this week officially starts. (You can PM your concern if you'd rather not reply in the thread - concerns to not have to be justified, it can be just that it would piss you off if it was changed, that is reason enough for me not to change it). So let's get this figured out in the next ~9 hours, so we can start this league :D

Why is there only one level from SRA total?

Check out the weightings on sitewide. Of the games listed SRA has the lowest, thus it only gets one level. What really dissapoints me is that Chaos, Drift, Drift 2, Sonic R, and hell even Sonic Battle have higher weightings than SRA yet they aren't in :(
I'm sure spinball would be higher too if it were there... :(

Sonic R, I asked if anyone wanted in, and no one seemed interested, so that is why I didn't put it in. I personally like that game, but if there was no demand for it...

Otherwise, the games that were included were done so based on number of players, not based on rankings in sitewide.

One day until league begins! Here are Round 1 levels. Remember, you can practice of course in the mean time, but times do not count for league until after 12:01am PDT Monday. I'm also going to put a list of the games, and how many levels from each game will be in league. (I'll edit this into the first post so it'll be an easy reference throughout). Tomorrow at the precise starting time, I will put up a post with the achievements that will be available throughout the entire course of the league. Levels will be hilighted when they are the last selection for league from a particular game. (Thus there is only one Sonic Rush Adventure level in the whole league, so it is hilighted this week.)

Remember, you can submit as many levels as you want, but you want to submit at least 2 levels per division. Submissions to me via PM on the forums or an email to writecrazy@gmail.com.
