GAME OVER
-
Gg,eric.
-
Thanks! Glad I was able to pull one off lol. ;D
-
Looks like some good games have been going on. Eric looks like you had a 925k game going.
-
Yeah, then I f*cked it up :o
-
You guys can NOT allow me to walk away with $250 bones with a sub-900K score.
If I'm not in fifth place or lower by the time this tournament is over, I'll be very disappointed in all of you. ;D
GOGOGO!
-
Haven't really been many submissions.
We'll see how it goes tomorrow....
-
Ben the Bounty Hunter just grabbed my last-man bounty, 51 boards to 48!
(Congrats. I'm glad I got there in time to see it, that was exciting!)
Now, are we SURE there's not a "first kill screen" bounty this time? That wasn't left off the list accidentally? ;D
-
kong beat up on me all day yesterday! and looking at twitch all my broadcasts were broken up into lots of short clips ???
ill try to get a score up today!

Although that score is definitely a good score to do in a week-end, I would personally be disappointed if the top 3 scores are not all 1m+. Of course, Dean and Jeff Willms aren't participating, so it lower the chances. But at least I hope I can count on Hank, Phil and Ross!
-
I went through the list and I see 17 people who have personal bests above 893, and more than half of them have done 1M.
So it will definitely be beaten, probably by 3 or 4 people at least. I'm kind of shocked it lasted through the night, honestly.
Even at this very moment Fast Eddie has a strong game started.
-
collapsed again! and i seem to have lost my confidence on the elevaters >:(
will keep plugging away!

play some games vincent! whats this i only play live crap ;)
-
I've been on an island with no cars where everyone travels with horses, since Thursday. I'll be home around 4pm today and then it's on.
-
It would be cool if i got a 1M score during this, but its very doubtful to happen. Maybe.......
-
I would be cool if I could bet to 5-1 with all my men....
-
I've been on an island with no cars where everyone travels with horses, since Thursday. I'll be home around 4pm today and then it's on.
Let me guess, there are also salt water taffy stores and lilac trees everywhere?

Is there any way the Professor could patch that hole in the side of the boat so that you, Gilligan, the Skipper, and all the rest could make it home sooner? :)
"I'll save you, little buddy!"
"Watch out for that wild barrel, Skipper!"
"Oooooooomph!"
-
oops misspost, was trying to edit earlier typo...
-
Somebody needs to tell whoever is running the Denver DK stream that the shot of the machine is not going to work at all.
You can't really watch the gameplay and the score/level aren't legible. You can see scores on the initial entry screen, but that's it. I'd hate for all those scores to be rejected.
-
Eric, that makes you the new highest pb increaser now, doesn't it?
-
Yep, except I am exempt from all bounties and winnings :)
BTW, do I need to do anything special to submit my score to your DK high score list (was not sure since it is part of the tourney)?
-
Just highlight the game on twitch and post the name, link, date in the score submissions thread in the high score lists subforum.
-
You're exempt from the top 3 pay spots??
So is Phil....
That means all I have to do is score 1,012,800!
-
I wanted to give a shout out to Tim Sczerby for playing in the tourney.
Totally cool for him join in the fun. And damn! Homeboy has some serious game! Don't let his score fool you. I watched the entire game he pulled off some sick moves and strategies.
Thanks Tim!
-
Glad I could help get some Denver locals on the scoreboard. We've got to get competition going here locally or I fear we'll not host the 4th kong off!
-
That means all I have to do is score 1,012,800!
Chris Psaros ... bubble boy ...
-
Ben snatched my "last man" bounty AND third-place-money-bubbled me!
However, I deserve this for leaving his stream an hour before he got a million on Mario Bros. ;D
-
A couple of us have talked about this amongst ourselves since the last tourney, so I'll mention it now:
We'd like to see the scoreboards for these tourneys be as complete as possible!
So, even if you performed under par this weekend, please consider submitting your best score nonetheless.
45 people on the board is just not nearly as cool as 60! (Or even 46.) It helps everybody, both above you and below you, put their score into a more accurate context, and makes the event itself look as big and badass as it actually was.
There is, of course, a whole can of worms involved here, and a dozen reasons why you may not want to submit, so there's definitely no "right" answer, but like I said, consider it. :)
-
I had so many PC issues this weekend it wasn't funny. Finally think I located the cause (Bad/Loose USB port on laptop). I think my best was 338 or 388k I really don't remember since it was like my first game. I'll post it if I can find it just to make the list complete.
-
Congrats to everyone. Some greats scores.
I did finally hash out the twitch problem, but it wasn't until Sunday evening. I didn't exact fix anything, I had to lower my bitrate all the way to 200 to stop the pauses every 5 seconds. But, didn't really give me enough time to get into playing. I really wanted to get some good games in this weekend also.
Hopefully I'm not forced to stay at 200 bps.
-
thanks Eric and John for another great tourney! :D
well played everone, lots of great scores...
i missed the other two 1m games but was great watching Phils game, nail biting last level went right down to the final screen! way to close it out dude!

Every tournaments been on my weekend with the boys and I can never get a game going. Lol, I'd be forever grateful if we could get the last one on Oct 19,20th. I'd be able to get about 30 games in compared to 2. No pressure though guys. lol.
-
Congrats everyone, and a HUUUJ thanks to Eric and John for all of their efforts putting these amazing tourneys together.
-
Thanks to everyone that took part, and extras for Eric and John. It was a great time and I only regretted my Xsplit problems on Saturday and not being able to pull off a "Ross" at the end ;)
WCQ#1 Killscreens: 4
WCQ#2 Killscreens: 5
Just a note, I had a Killscreen in WCQ #1 so both tournaments ended up with five
-
Congrats everyone! So many PBs, 4 1M+ scores, 5 killscreens. Insane!
I saw the end of Ben's game. So heartbreaking. Why didn't you just run boards on your last man? I'm pretty sure you had 1st place sealed.
-
OK, I filled data into my spreadsheet and I have a few additional interesting details.
First, let's look at who played but did not submit, and who registered but did not play!
The total number of registrants was 72. (This is listed incorrectly on the official reg. list as 68.)
45 scores were submitted, leaving 27 non-submitters or no-shows.
I'm following all of you on Twitch so it was just a matter of dumping all the "x just went live" email notifications into a folder, sorting by name, and then going through the 27 non-submitters. So if you went live at all this weekend, I'm counting you as a participant. Let me know if you were not playing DK!
Played, but did not submit:
1. Adam Mon
2. Andrew Gardikis
3. Chris Icenhour
4. Corey Chambers
5. Craig Rout Gallant
6. Dave McCrary (technical difficulties all weekend)
7. George Strain
8. Joe Kassel
9. Mitchell Elliott (Had a 590K game, which, as far as I know, was the best non-submitted score)
10. Nick Sheils
11. Richie Knucklez (I didn't realize how good Richie was! No submission though)
12. Robbie Lakeman (bad luck with the fireballs)
13. Ross Benziger (Apparently Ross will only submit a score to one of these if he wins ;D )
14. Scott Cunningham (Scott told me he wasn't comfortable streaming. No problem buddy.)
15. Steve Wagner (see his comments below)
16. Svavar Gunnar Gunnarsson
17. Tom Bradley
Total Actual Participants: 62 (the 45 submitted scores plus the above 17 players)
Registered but did not play:
1. Douglas Tessler
2. Dustin Pease
3. Edward Dietman
4. Hank Chien
5. Joseph Carroll
6. Jourdan Adler
7. Justin Lee Ramser
8. Kayla Rose
9. Ky Staal
10. Stan Trazka
Let me know if I got any of that wrong! It's quite likely that somebody or other slipped through the cracks because my method is imperfect.
WCQ SERIES SO FAR ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Averaged Performances
Of those who submitted scores for BOTH WCQ tournaments (25 players), here are the top 10 based on the average of each players' top scores in the two tourneys. (Dean, Corey, Dave, etc. are not on here because they only have one score and it would be unfair to base their "average" on one score when everyone else's number is based on two.)
1. Phil Tudose 1: 1,051,600 2: 1,020,900 Avg: 1,036,250 :o
2. Ben Falls 1: 869,100 2: 1,012,700 Avg: 940,900
3. Jeff Wolfe 1: 997,800 2: 846,300 Avg: 922,050
4. Jon McKinnell 1: 753,600 2: 1,019,800 Avg: 886,700
5. Steve Wilsthire 1: 602,800 2: 1,016,100 Avg: 809,450
6. Chris Psaros 1: 696,800 2: 893,100 Avg: 794,950
7. Eric Tessler 1: 512,200 2: 966,000 Avg: 739,100
8. Jeff Harrist 1: 678,200 2: 628,500 Avg: 653,350
9. Ethan Daniels 1: 605,900 2: 690,900 Avg: 648,400
10. Shane Mosher 1: 637,400 2: 630,100 Avg: 633,750
Total Player Pool (Registrants In At Least One Tournament): 83
Total Players Who Submitted At Least One Score For Either Tournament: 57
% Of Player Pool With At Least One Submission: 57 out of 83 (69%)
Total Players Registered in Both Tournaments: 48
Total Players Who Submitted Scores For Both Tournaments: 25
% Of Double-Submitters Out of Double-Participants: 25 out of 48 (52%)
Total Submissions vs. Registrations (WCQ #1): 37 out of 59 (63%)
Total Submissions vs. Registrations (WCQ #2): 45 out of 72 (63%)
Fun Fact #1: there are only 3 players who registered in the two previous WCR tourneys that did not play either of the "Opens" - Estel Goffinet, Daryl Kiddy, and Colman Paolo. (This brings the total combined player pool for all of the Tessler tournaments to 86 - can we hit 100??).
Fun Fact #2: only 4 of the "Top 12" did not register in either of the "Open" tourneys - Billy Mitchell, Steve Wiebe, Shaun Boyd, and Kyle Goewert. Jeff Willms, Dave McCrary, Mike Groesbeck, Robbie Lakeman and Dean Saglio have played and submitted, while Mark Kiehl, Hank Chien, and Vincent Lemay have registered but not participated.

Thanks again, Eric and John for another great tournament!
Congrats everyone! So many PBs, 4 1M+ scores, 5 killscreens. Insane!
I saw the end of Ben's game. So heartbreaking. Why didn't you just run boards on your last man? I'm pretty sure you had 1st place sealed.
You're right, Hank. I didn't think of it until after though. It was still a really fun game and I haven't had much fun playing DK in some time. :D
-
I played the last game on Richie's stream I think. Quality was laggy and john salter stopped by and told me it couldn't be verified so I fucked around a bit instead. I think it was like 300-400k or something and then I got pulled off to go hang with my mates.
Sick scores all! Congrats.
-
10. Mitchell Elliott (Had a 590K game, which, as far as I know, was the best non-submitted score)
Sorry if it irks you that didn't submit, but, in my mind, I ought not submit anything less than about 850k -since I know anything below that is basically either an average score or simply unacceptable for me. There's no reason I shouldn't KS DK on almost any given attempt when I am just running boards -evidenced by the fact that probably 80% of my deaths are due to my own lapses in focus, rather than extreme screwings. This might sound cocky to some, but, for me, it's just me being honest with myself.
I'll hopefully play more in the next couple weeks before school starts again and maybe put a decent game together. I wanna get at least 900k+ by KO3 time.
-
@Chris
If it helps to complete your list I believe the best I did was 284k (however I deleted my recent broadcasts well before the deadline on Twitch mainly out of embarresment and due to the fact I had no intentions on sumbmiting a sub 400k score) So technically I have no evidence of it,
I could list a bunch of reasons why I performed under par OBS DC's/Lack of play on Saturday,..but they are only excuses, fact of the matter is I couldnt pull of a decent game when it counted, But was a very enjoyable experience so thanks to the people who put it together, Looking forward to the next one. Was also cool to see Tim play, He was pulling off some very cool moves, especially on rivet stages, .
-
Don't worry about not submitting. I am not judging anybody, and I am not actually irked, because I know that there are many reasons why one might not want to submit. Anybody who doesn't have a score on the list, for whatever reason, is in their rights to do so. :)
-
I chose not to submit due to technical problems all weekend, even though the one attempt I had at the very end when I got the stream working was only 408K and just pretty much didn't play after that.
-
12. Richie Knucklez (I didn't realize how good Richie was! No submission though)
Richie was actually a 700K+ player back when there were only a handful of killscreeners. He stopped playing shortly after we met back in '09. Not sure if it was coincidental =). I actually learned the elevators from his youtube video.
-
Yeah I had a lot of issues and frankly pooped it up. :)
I'll still submit for the sake of doing it but I need to find the stream with my "official " score and email it (if they will take it :)
Here it is BAH stupid elevator deaths. This was my "best" game I think in regards to the controller and streaming wasn't too fubar this game.
http://www.twitch.tv/danman123456/b/447385951 (http://www.twitch.tv/danman123456/b/447385951)
335,500. I think I got a 388k game as well but can't find it and I just looked WOW so many streaming issues have like 50 plus videos some like 50 seconds in length. HAHAHA
-
Alright Eric who was the Mystrey Player...
-
If I would have submitted my score then George would have gotten the 25th place bounty. Ken, you have me to thank, as well as any others who did not submit.
