I've already got it locked?  Nice!!!  8) 8) 8)  J/K, I know its early in the weekend.  Personally, I've got a busy weekend.  Hoping to get a couple more runs in before the end of the event, but I may not get the chance, and I wanted to at least put up a showing.  I'm sure I will be trumped soon.  Good luck, compadres!  <pacman> <blinky> <popcorn>

The scoreboard has been updated again! It looks like JCB has pushed his way back to first place... but for how long?  <stirpot>
As a reminder, this tournament will not be extended.

Good tournament everyone!  I can't really be mad, I expected to move down a couple of spots with my shit score, but what I didn't expect was how it would happen.  Just goes to show that even when you have many other players who are closely matched all playing together, RNG will prevail.

Kongrats to JCB/Ethan!  I know that Jason is probably not making it out this year, but he accomplished his goal of seeing IF he could put up a score and get in the real deal!  He beat me fair and square, with numerous VERY close calls and a great first man.

I absolutely loved the grinding of some players!  One of my favorite 3-day tournaments thus far for me to spectate and play in, reminds me of the old-style wildcard rematch events in 2013/2014.  Always love an chance to see <Tim> back in action.

Anyways, hope to see some more great tournaments soon, always an absolute blast

Title: KO5 WILDCARD QUALIFIER FINAL STANDINGS
Post by: WCopeland on May 02, 2016, 07:50:43 am
Thank you everyone for participating!

In the end, all the competitors worked hard, but two players proved without any doubt who could perform under the stress and pressure of a three-day event, which is exactly what this qualifier was intended to test.

Ethan, who would already be in the arcade top 12 sans an unfortunate power outage, grinded his way to a respectable 1.04m score that tied his PB. A strong player and the outright favorite, no one is surprised that he took first.

JCB played three huge games in this event. He had a 700k, an 800k, and when it mattered he pulled out a 900k. He could have gotten discouraged and decided not to push farther, but he kept trying. This is a commendable trait worthy of a Kong Off competitor.

Both players have proven themselves (and not for the first time). While the next players down will be given the status of alternates if of these two are unable to attend, these two players are the officially qualified players from this competition, and there will be two cabinets in Pittsburgh at the world championship with their names on them.
