Donkey Kong Online Open: Kong Off 3 Wild Card Qualifier #3 ***FINAL*** Results

[JNugent]

FYI, Shane stated on his stream last night that he is definitely not going to KO3.  His name can safely be removed from the list of qualifiers which takes into account who is not going.

Based on this I missed #8 by 2k! We need to go back to the Top 9 like originally discussed!!!! J/K

Good luck everyone I'm playing on Friday and coming for you! Thanks again Eric/John and everyone. Can't wait to the event!

Wow Dave is not going to the KO3 also ?    The star players not going to the KO3 is starting to add up.

I  have never been to the Kong Off  but I always enjoyed watching Dave play or hear about his games after words ..

Nice to see players you watch quite often on Twitch at  a event like this .

Dave McCrary is going to the Kong Off, Brian...if that's who you're talking about.  I think you're confusing the top 8 list, taking into consideration who is *not* going...as a list of people not going perhaps?  That is not the case...

Alright, I have to say, with this Mystery Player thing, at this point everybody is in one of two camps. they either don't care, or DO want to know who it is and are getting annoyed. Either way we should get this over with.

We thought it would come out after the second tourney, and if not that, definitely after the third (since it's the end of the series).

Either tell us who it is or at least tell us when their identity is going to be revealed!

Some of us have informal bets going...

Eric and John you guys rocks for organizing this!  I had tons of fun this weekend.

There were 30 players who registered in one or both of the two previous tourneys who did not register for this one:

I think we need a Venn diagram.  #onlyjoking

[syscrusher]

Thanks, Eric and John!  Another triumphant tournament...you guys are boss.  Good luck to the wildcard players at KO3!

[tessler1134]

Thanks everyone for playing! It was lots of fun...especially seeing all the different ways people die in DK and how they react! 

[f_symbols]

I agree, you guys RULE for running these WC tournaments.  This has been so much fun, it really helps grow the competition, we get to rub elbows with the best players in the game (no homo), and it gives some potential $$$ to everyone for playing DK.  I wish there was some way we could pay you guys back.  I can't say thank you enough for your selfless commitment to the WCR and WCQ series.

Most Fun I've ever had in any gaming tournament series, ever (this was my first gaming tournament ever ).

[Martin Laing]

I won a mystery bounty for 20th; I do have a paypal account. How do I get sent that money? Only set up account to make TG payments so don't know how to receive.


Sorry if this is a dumb question.

[tessler1134]

Martin - please send me a PM with your paypal account and I will send you your winnings! 

[JohnTheLawnMan]

Sorry everyone, I've been out if commision for the last 24 hours with an ocular migraine.  I guess the stress of the tournament, work, and family finally caught up to me.

Thanks for all the kind words.  There's a lot that goes into these tournaments, but it's totally worth it!  As for some way to pay us back...  Everyone has already paid us back by participating, so no worries there.

Congrats to all the players.
