Weekly 5-Map Tournament - Animal Group Names - closing 23 Sept 2012

[SmileyCoder]

i flew the ls down and capped the gateway before building anything else. it took quite a few tries to dodge the drones properly, but it was fun to do.

I used a similar approach on all my attempts, allthought I "dodged" the drones by using shields.

Dam you Wheatmidge. I was so sure I was gonna win this week.

I freely admit that I can't do games with "Experimentals" in them and need to add games with "Fields".
A rough week for the old guy.

Managed to rethink the first map and cut yet another 50 seconds off on my time. Who says pressure is bad?

Umm...me!
This whole week is kicking my butt - plus, you three are rocking on this thing.

When this is all said and done, I'd like to know how y'all attacked #1 & 2.

[Wheatmidge]

Wow, this has been one of the most competitive weeks in a long time. It's nice to be pushing each other to get better times.

Well, I was just happy to finish all the maps.  I'm way outclassed this week.  Nice job...

Good comment - that should always be the first goal.
Looking forward to next week.

That was a lot of fun, but the tournament is now over. It's time to try out my fancy new high score table!

Good job Smiley Coder! That is a very impressive time for map 1. You get to pick next week's tournament.

[SmileyCoder]

Certainly a interesting and very competive week.

[Helper]

The best competition week I've seen so far.

FYI - After I posted the prior week's results, someone called "the master" posted late scores that were about 2 minutes/game faster than all the rest of us.

I don't know if we have a new uber-player or if "Emperium" is re-visiting under a new name.

Just a head's up.

I don't see those scores now?

Its hard to tell whether its a uber-player or a cheater. I felt sure that noone would be able to shave off alot of time of the scores I posted first time round this week, but you all put that assumption to shame. Then going over the maps again and again, I managed to shave off just 10% each time.

SC -
I was talking about the scores from my last game (Star Trek...).

I have no qualms about admitting that a whole bunch of players around here can kick my butt on any given game - but posting the highest score in every game (higher by 2-3 minutes) just seem extraordinary.
