Re: Weekly 5-Map Tournament - Candy - closing 2 Dec 2012

[Wheatmidge]

My strategy on gummy bears was to dig in, I think it can save you some money as apposed to shields, though It means less area for reactors at first.

[ea3401]

Two early C-Bombs into the right chamber are also a good defence.

Interesting tactic EA3401, and certainly one I had not even considered. Thank you for sharing.

[florrat]

Used the tactic of ea3401 (at least the idea to bomb the right pool, I did the other pools completely different) to improve his score a tiny bit. Current scoretable:

I had not even considered going to ground from the start. That definitely gives you a little time to build up which allowed me to get over the hump and beat the map. Obviously, much better times are possible, but I was happy with a victory.   :)

Verflixt!
I thought I had done Fuzzy Peaches this morning, but since my score does not appear, I checked and I had two spaces in between the words. XD At least, for now, I hold the record on that one ^^
