Title: Tournament #2
vix - August 29, 2008 02:27 AM (GMT)
It's been a while since we've done anything arcade related. Anyone up for a tournament of some kind?

No responses.... :crybaby
I'd be up for a tourney.
vix - September 3, 2008 06:46 PM (GMT)
i know, dead as dead can be. :lol
anyone else want to join a tourney?
i'll do any game! :D
s0njas0n - September 3, 2008 07:01 PM (GMT)
ah yes, sonya's epic fail in the making. i suppose i would do one, but i never play any of the games.
vix - September 3, 2008 07:09 PM (GMT)
true but it's for the community! :lol
or something.
viva la katamari!
matthew69 - September 4, 2008 06:02 PM (GMT)
Viva Katamari is right!
Maybe we could have something ongoing or open-ended -- like we play a game, then whoever wins (or loses, for that matter), picks the next game.
Really I'm up for anything ;)
vix - September 4, 2008 06:47 PM (GMT)
we can do a tourney, then the winner can pick the next tourney and host if they want since the tourney's are built in now.
i'll set up a 4 person tournament.
Ok, I made the tourney:
linkyyou get 2 plays to play your round when it starts.

vix - September 4, 2008 07:06 PM (GMT)
whoever wants to join, lol.
i tried to edt the previous post but the servers crashed.
It's the Viva Katamari tourney in case you didn't figure it out, lol.

So do I have to download Thunder Arcade and register and so forth?
vix - September 5, 2008 01:54 AM (GMT)
no, you just join. it's linked to our forum. like always. you just click to join the tourney, no new registrations or anything like that is needed.
matthew69 - September 5, 2008 05:29 PM (GMT)
Oh. I clicked to join and it took me to a download page. Maybe my ancient Mac is causing the trouble. I'll try again.... :shrug
matthew69 - September 5, 2008 05:31 PM (GMT)
It took me to the same page. Am I an idiot? Am I missing something? Sorry vix.... It says,

try just going to the arcade through the link at the top of the page, then click on the tournaments link...
s0njas0n - September 5, 2008 05:37 PM (GMT)
when are you guys starting because i won't be able to do it until later tonight, and whenever over the weekend... that is if matt gets it figured out i suppose. i can't help i don't have a mac.
vix - September 5, 2008 05:50 PM (GMT)
we would still need a fourth to sign up i think.
s0njas0n - September 5, 2008 05:52 PM (GMT)
reecer signed up a few posts ago, we have 4
vix - September 5, 2008 05:53 PM (GMT)
oh, ok. well once matt joins, you get two days per round from the time the last person signed up so you've got some time.
edit: i meant actually join the tourney, there's still two open slots.
s0njas0n - September 5, 2008 06:03 PM (GMT)
right, i checked and he didn't sign up officially. maybe someone should pm him the link.
matthew69 - September 6, 2008 01:42 AM (GMT)
Got it to work, finally :D
vix - September 6, 2008 02:20 AM (GMT)
woot, now we're just waiting on reecer6...if he doesn't join by the end of the weekend, someone else might have to jump in.
reecer6 - September 6, 2008 06:42 PM (GMT)
Great! man I hate the girl that the boy just stops on!
s0njas0n - September 6, 2008 08:32 PM (GMT)
yeah, quite annoying. never played that one before, it was interesting. better than cat cannon... or whatever it was.
vix - September 6, 2008 10:12 PM (GMT)
you gotta be kidding me. that was the lamest attempt ever. :frusty
29.80
the first girl i hit, the first girl in general was a block girl and then rolled through a red and hit the green for the step. ugh.
reecer6 - September 6, 2008 11:12 PM (GMT)
a very very small score against a very very big score. lol
s0njas0n - September 7, 2008 12:37 AM (GMT)
i wouldn't say very high, you do know that matt's high score is like 35k right? lol. i only barely hit 2k when i was playing before the tourney.
matthew69 - September 8, 2008 08:41 PM (GMT)
Sorry all. Looks like my old computer, which can only run an old version of my web browser, has trouble with Thunder Arcade. I was able to play Nanaca Crash okay; but then when I hit "Submit" it took me to the error page. I tried it repeatedly with no luck. I used to have that problem if I was playing a game for more than, say, twenty minutes or so. But now it happens every single time. Bottom line: I can't submit any scores with my computer. I get more and more "Unsupported Browser" messages these days. More trouble with flash. It really blows. I think Steve Jobs wants me to get a new computer :(
vix - September 8, 2008 09:13 PM (GMT)
aww, sucks to hear matt. nuts.
reecer6 - September 9, 2008 01:32 AM (GMT)
Too bad. you will lose. it will disqualify him if he dosen't submit his scores for a week or so, right?
vix - September 9, 2008 01:52 AM (GMT)
it should dq him after the two day time limit is up...
edit: yeah, i just checked and the next round has started.
s0njas0n - September 11, 2008 01:33 PM (GMT)
oops, a win by default, i meant to play, but realized i ran out of time last night.
matthew69 - October 1, 2008 12:49 PM (GMT)
Hey I figured out if I switch browsers, I can submit scores in the Arcade. Let's do a tourney, and I'll show up this time :lol
s0njas0n - October 1, 2008 12:55 PM (GMT)
well, i suppose i was supposed to pick the next game? i kinda won by default, anyway... if you want to pick the next game for the tourney i'm fine with that, i've only played like 5 games in the whole arcade.
vix - October 1, 2008 04:56 PM (GMT)
i usually try to pick a game that doesn't let you retry without submitting so it's a little more fair that way.
matt, pick a game and i'll set it up if you want. :)
matthew69 - October 2, 2008 03:09 PM (GMT)
How about something from the "sports" category?
:shrug
vix - October 2, 2008 04:44 PM (GMT)
done
Pingu Chuckin2 days per round, 4 players, you get 3 tries per round and it will take your best score.
matthew69 - October 2, 2008 05:28 PM (GMT)
Okay, so now we just have to wait for joiners, right?
s0njas0n - October 2, 2008 05:37 PM (GMT)
there's 3 of us. need a 4th player, i suppose.
matthew69 - October 3, 2008 02:53 PM (GMT)
I only see Vix and me in the tournament.
