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

[John73]

Wow.... Just looked at the results and saw that I won a mystery bounty!   Thanks so much, I really did put in a lot of hours to achieve this mediocre score, and I tried my level best until the last minute to improve on it - luckily for me it would seem, I didn't break through the 300k barrier I was hoping for.   But that will happen sooner rather than later I hope.

Thanks again to Eric & John, and also to Chris for the rego/score submission pages which made it a lot easier to submit and most likely made Eric & John's job a fair bit easier too.

Eric, I'll PM you with my PayPal details shortly.  This money will go some of the way towards buying a new PCB (unfortunately DK is too expensive) and saying it from ending up in a landfill.

Thanks again guys.

Looks like ol' Cheetah played just about 30,000 points too well!

Also, those of you who haven't seen it yet should review the qualifiers section. It was edited. There has been a major development...

[John73]

Actually he was probably a bit unlucky, I had so many great starts (for my skill), including a best first man on 159,000 - I just could not covert any of them past my PB of 266,000.  I think all up for the weekend I had 5-6 games over 220,000 and probably at least 10 games with a 100,000 point first man.  I practiced like crazy before the comp using a L5 save state hoping it would help me progress, but it wasn't to be.   Oh well, there is always next time.

[ChrisP]

Yer, I'm confused.

Why is Shawn not listed in 10th if he has 680,300 and JC has 678?

[Shane_NC]

I actually have a higher score than D dock for the top 10 online qualifiers on the first list ( the one that doesnt take into account who isnt going), so on the original top 10 list I should be listed as 10th, however, I shouldn't be on the second list. Not that it really matters but just good to give credit where credit is due.

[tessler1134]

Guys, this is what I have so far. Yeah I screwed up the first top 10, not taking into account who is going (Sorry Shane . The second list is just a best guess as we really don't know for sure who is going to show up or not, anything can change at any time. The top 10 list will have to be adjusted according to who actually shows up to the KO 3. If you know you are for sure not going to the KO 3 and your name is on the second list, please let me know ASAP and I will adjust the list. Thanks!

Remember, this is not the final list of qualifiers.  There will be 10 more spots available for the live qualifier on Friday, November 15th.

From my experience last year, I would guess it won't take a really high score to qualify for one of those spots.

There will be 20 contestants for Saturday, November 16th.  10 online qualifiers and 10 live qualifiers.

[ChrisP]

Awesome, you guys. I love throwing in the two extra cabs at the end as a surprise! And it answers an important question about the 22 cabs and what they're for.

I have to say, I'm glad that I thought it was only 8 spots. It made this series WAY more exciting and tense for some of us (definitely me!) and made us push harder. I was sweating those last few hours, because I was in the 6th spot (after removing the no-gos), and there were still several people playing (Ethan, JC, Doc, etcetera) who I knew could beat 893K and knock me out if three of them got a hold of a good game.

Perhaps next year.  I will enjoy not playing DK as much and I have a Satan's Hollow Off with Don.  Mostly just looking forward to hanging out again!

[Xermon54]

Mostly just looking forward to hanging out again!

Personally, I'm looking forward to hang myself after playing too much DK! /close enough
