At 15 entries, even with 3 weeks to go this tourney already has more contestants signed up than the first (which was 13 players).

Hey Dan, congratulations on the 12,400 Level 1-1 score!

I hadn't noticed it before; was it accomplished recently?

I remember it took me forever to finally break 12k on Level 1-1.  And 13k is STILL laughing at me.

Title: Re: Wildcard Rematch #2 Registration List
Post by: danman123456 on March 02, 2013, 05:01:56 pm
Stella I actually got the 12,400 a while ago and noticed it was in your sig so I figured why not.
I actually was on track to beat the 13,400 that was the high at the time I was doing it from Dean and Jeff but i got tagged by a damn wild barrel so i couldn't submit the score since I died :<
I got heavy into 1-1 for a little while. :)

Looking at the list of DK streamers and comparing those names to the registration list, excluding the verified million-point players, it's looking like this is actually a really good turnout.

Here are the missing folks I see.

Played in the first, but not signed up for this one:
Melkon DomBourian
Jonathan McCourt

Not signed up: (but "highly eligible", so to speak)
Andrew Gardikis (showed interest in this thread, but didn't email his entry)
Chris Icenhour
Dustin Meyers
Eric Howard
John Hunter
Phil Tudose
Leo (https://donkeykongforum.net/index.php?action=profile;u=94)
Tyr1ck
Kaayla IllusiveFX (Daniel would know if she is planning to)
Youmee Im

Not likely to sign up: (in my opinion)
Chris Mansfield
Glen Updike
Ken House
Phil Timmons
Tim "Mary McManus" Sczerby

Hopefully a few more people among those names will join.

Otherwise, I think every Donkey Kong player out there is either ineligible, already signed up, signup is pending (Mitch), or at least aware that it's happening.

Title: Re: Wildcard Rematch #2 Registration List
Post by: marinomitch13 on March 11, 2013, 02:08:00 pm
Two other people to add to your list, Chris: Mary Mcmanus (i.e. Tim Sczerby) and Youmee/Angela Im.

I definitely hope Youmee competes if she can! Maybe it would be the incentive she needs to break 300k and 400k! Hank, start pestering her to play!  ;D

P.s. Kaayla Facebook messaged me, and as far as I can interpret her message, she is gonna be playing! (?) not 100% sure though.

Melkon DomBourian
Steve Wiltshire
Jonathan McCourt


Steve Wiltshire is on the list.
Title: Re: Wildcard Rematch #2 Registration List
Post by: ChrisP on March 11, 2013, 02:33:32 pm
Yeah, Daniel posted a pic of two machines side by side, presumably one for Kaayla, but I didn't want to assume anything.

I would like to see Youmee play as well, especially since His Royal Highness isn't invited and his machine will be unoccupied!

Some ladies in the tournament would be splendid.

(Oh, Steve W. IS on the list, how did I screw that up?)
Title: Re: Wildcard Rematch #2 Registration List
Post by: hchien on March 11, 2013, 04:49:40 pm
Steve W can refer to 3 possible killscreeners... Wiltshire, Wagner, Wiebe.  Just teasing, I know who you meant.

I just updated the list.  I've been slacking the last week.

We hit 30 players.  Very cool.

I haven't played DK since the last rematch, and I don't know I'll have time to practice this week.  Hopefully I can drop a 600k+ just to keep it respectable.....

3 more days....  Can't wait!

I plan to visit the MGM Sports Book in Las Vegas, and politely ask the owners to stream all 30 channels on their HD big screens.  After being escorted out by security, I'll probably hit the Bellagio Buffet.

Absolutely.  I'm not competing, so I plan to watch as much as I can.  As a final preparation, I'll have to make sure I'm "following" everyone on the list.

Vincent will probably also be there, as he enjoys shamelessly following me from channel to channel (although he will certainly claim that I'm the one stalking him).   :)

Not exactly a replacement.  Several of us share a rotating schedule, taking turns as Vincent's "adult supervision".  He is a talented DK competitor, one of the very best, yet he can't resist being the occasional thorn in our collective side.  The situation is similar to a youngster in the back seat of a car, who feels compelled to ask, "Are we there yet?" every 5 minutes.

Not to worry, Vincent.  I'm just making this stuff up as I go along.   :)

Put him in the back seat with Allen goodtimes will happen.

Good times for whom?  I'd spend the entire trip yelling at both of them to "knock it off", or threatening to administer a healthy dose of "noogies".

My announcement about this is now up:
http://donkeykongblog.blogspot.com/2013/03/donkey-kong-tournament-this-saturday.html (http://donkeykongblog.blogspot.com/2013/03/donkey-kong-tournament-this-saturday.html)

It took me a while to finally make a post. I let it slide until just before the event because I'm reasonably sure that anybody who both (1) reads my blog and (2) is actually a 250K+-capable player already knows about the tournament.

I don't think it will get us any new entrants, since the majority of the visitors to my blog are either Googlers checking out the high score list or following a link to the Eminem story (which gets linked a lot). The rest is you guys!

At any rate, there it is.
Title: Re: Wildcard Rematch #2 Registration List
Post by: tessler1134 on March 14, 2013, 01:05:59 am
Great post Chris! Thank you very much, I like the graphic as well :)

I will likely not be broadcasting any DK on Saturday, for two reasons:
1. I will be validating scores mostly during the day.
2. My DK machine has decided to give me trouble and randomly the picture gets scrambled :)

I will try to get at least one game in just for the rankings, but that depends if my machine holds out :)
Title: Re: Wildcard Rematch #2 Registration List
Post by: JohnTheLawnMan on March 14, 2013, 02:42:33 pm
Pretty sure your machine will hold out until you lose your last guy on lvl 2.

"The average game of Donkey Kong doesn't last a minute" (as proved so often by Eric Tessler).


Chris,
Great story, and that cover pic is sweet!

Phil's name has been fixed, and Ken has been added.  Up to 33 peeps now.

The start times (for Australia, not sure about the other places) is correct, however the date is the 19th (3/19/13 US Date Format) and not the 16th.  I'm sure we all know when it starts though.

Thanks for pointing out the "twtich" errors, I'll change these on another forum where I posted links for Aussies to watch.

A reminder to all contestants in the DK wildcard rematch #2, which starts in about 50 minutes. Please re-read all the rules and make sure they are followed (especially the ones for streaming your games). You can review the rules using the link below. Good luck everyone !!!

The rule about streaming only on twitch tv will keep me from playing if followed to the letter.  I have a twitch account that is directly linked to my justin tv account but for whatever reason Jtv will not let me stream on Twitch.  If you follow the address www.twitch.tv/vondummpenstein (http://www.twitch.tv/vondummpenstein) you'll be redirected to my Jtv stream.  It used to be that I could control which site hosted my stream by switching the category setting in my user profile, but that doesn't work anymore and when I try it I'm told to start a new account at Twitch tv....accept that I have an account at twitch tv!?  In fact, I can edit my Jtv account through Twitch, I just can't change which site hosts the stream anymore.

The rule specifically states "NO EXCEPTIONS", but I'm going to have to ignore this.  There's nothing I can do shy of starting a brand new account that I would use only for the purposes of this tournament.  I just wanted it known that I am aware of the conflict, and if it keeps me from being prize eligible, so be it.
