Looked through the maps and they are pretty interesting. To bad I am leaving now for 2 weeks trip and will not be able to participate in this and next tournaments. Hope to join the 4th one when I'm back.

The fifth map has some challenges when the various chambers connect and release their drones... An interesting set of 5 maps again, thanks.

I did not like racecar - i still don't know whether my monitor is straight

It does make an interesting exercise in strategy.

Lets see how mopa42's new tool works (cf here (http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=7477.0)):

Hey thepenguin, would you be able to make the table of maps be in 3 columns (map name, size, complexity)? If you can, that'll make it easier for my program to automatically parse weekly maps.

And now I'm up to 6th. All I can hope for is to not come in last in my first attempt. Not sure if I have what it takes to ever challenge for the win.

Finally getting back to the forums! Here are my scores for this tournament.

Looks like I'll be picking next week's maps since I'm in second place.

The winner should not pick the next tourney, but the tourney after next. So by now we should all know the pick for this week, and it gives the winner a few days to make his pick for the tourney after that.

I think this is a good idea. However we would have to think about a solution for the one-week gap that would exist when this gets implemented

The rules for these tournaments have already been addressed
and readdressed when we used to do them for CW1, see here (http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=7410.0).

According to these rules, Fisherck will choose the maps, and
if he wins again? 2nd place and so forth.

Also, if we 'know' which maps will be featured in the next
tournament, what stops us from getting ahead? This is why
it is kept secret until it is publicly released then everyone
has an equal amount of time to complete the maps.

Since I don't think Fisherck will be around to do it, here are some screenshots of how I did the missions.
Actually, I've just got 1 because that's all I remembered to take. Didn't think I'd be "winning".

Flee to me, remote elf
First I grabbed the green gem, flew right, grabbed the red gem, then dug under the emitter to nullify it. I used 1 blaster to keep the ship from dying.
Then, I built up my energy supply as much as I could, and attacked the main chamber from both ends. Coming from the bottom was pretty easy since the gravity was up.

You could still keep it secret, but having the week delay would allow more time for the maps to be chosen and, I suppose, tested to make sure they are not instant wins or impossible scenarios, before released

Even if you made it public, everyone would have the same advantage.
