And I thought you always hated Semi XD
Anyway, congratulations! Few duels left and it's over.

By the way, change the forfeit wins from 5-0 to 1-0.

I agree. Unless you have a better reason not to do so.

Indeed, I hope that the other duel(s) can be played tomorrow :|
and, I never knew you were good in Semi, black.

I never knew I was good in semi, either.

Couldn't you suggest that BEFORE 98% of the matches have been played? Anyway, it'll take hours now to update the database, but next season I'll certainly do that (1-0 instead of 5-0)

I think it was mentioned earlier. I just can't remember where or when.

Chippie, I don't see how it would take hours to change that. If you'd like to change it quickly I'm quite sure that I could give you some advice on how to do a group update on things, I've got a good deal of experiences with databases. Feel free to contact me over ICQ or email (both of which should be in my profile).

and update the scores too >O

I don't have ICQ, but I guess I can change it, though. It may cost some time...
The database is structured in this way: one for all the matches and one for all player info. I'll have to update the roasts/kills fields for each player and the points player 1 and points player 2 field for each forfeited match. It would have been easier if I had made an edit-script, but I didn't expect anything like this.

There is no reason to change it anyways...

There *is*.

Why?

Because.

ehem you spam ppl

Lost to SJ

5-0 Pinball Arena 2k5 Superjazz wins :(
Comments: I was too lagged here to do anything. He seemed never to get hit by my shots, and every time he shot out anything i was immediately hit by it, even if i was nowhere close. So yeah. (host = umba)
5-2 Zaitox Blacky wins
Comments: I killed him at least 50 times here but he decided to be annoying and play as jazz and recapture. I knew I wouldnt lose this anyways, so this was fun
5-3 Mort Myre Superjazz wins :(
We did a random level and landed on this. Was close in the beginning, then SJ leaded 4-1 or something, then i caught up 4-3, then he won. I cant ever win people in this level, and the carrot placement was annoying because it often fell into half masked scenery behind floatups and you had to buttstomp really close to the grave to get it.

smiley edit :(

sj has a LAG CLOCK 8D

gg ul blacky

So today I finished my duel against Blacky. Blacky was another tough one after the first round which was actually just pure lag for him.
Anyway, we decided to play round one with an european host and the rest with Fs.

Round 1: Pinball Arena 2005
Host: Umba
Score: 5-0 for me
My own comments: I agreed to play against Blacky in his own level because I preferred it enough over some other previously used level. Anyway it would have surely been much better score for him if Fs hosted this one as well, but the deal was the deal.
I don't know what's the matter Umba's server recently but anyway this was easy to understand because of the distance. So he couldn't really do anything against me there.

Round 2: Zaitox Station 67
Host: FireSworD
Score: 5-2 for him
My own comments: I actually managed to recapture several times during the game because of me being Jazz+blue. I tried to play careful but it didn't seem to be enough. Though still just curse on my isp or whatever caused the packet losses
and stuff about chat. At the game being 4-2 I was gonna stop the game and reporting Blacky about a possible fake3 but later Blacky told me he hadn't seen me talking anything during the entire duel, nor did I see any chatting after 2-2 or so.
Plus that I got timed out of the server(or actually "connection lost") a moment after that. I don't mind too much that he could have actually continued the game for once more because I actually slowed down while I tried saying stop.
So we, uhh, went to the third round.

Round 3: Random(Mort Myre)
Host: FireSworD
Score: 5-3 for me
My own comments: After suggesting a dozen of levels we just decided going on random as Fs asked about it. After switching the level for twice we decided to go with Fs' picked Mort Myre. This time there was enough time to act after respawn because of this level being so large in width.
It seemed that Blacky preferred going the tunnel-route and taking the rf-pu from middle meanwhile I took both Bouncy and Toaster from above. There was much sniping with rf's and we both even killed each other at the same time for twice. Luck was also needed as both of
us could sometimes seem to hit each other advantagely without receiving damage from another. Guess you know what I mean. I actually took some dangerous chances and he was almost about to make a comeback from 4-1. I anyway took the powerup's instead of running straight
to his base. I finally got use of the sucker tube around the middle at the last moments which earlierly was considered useless by me.

Heh, first I would lose to Squirrel but now I could anyway beat Blacky who had just crushed Squirrel. Well, these do happen sometimes. So, tomorrow dueling Veg. :+)

Blacky, Squirrel and Vivvie. What a love a triangle. :D

Oh well.. gotta face FS (again)...
I just faced SuperJazz.. I was quite lucky, to be honest.

First round: Semi. Score: 5-4 (Vegito). Host: Umba.

Uhm.. this was.. quite weird, actually. In the start, there was no respawn.. So, Umba rehosted at 1-1. After that, everything went a bit better. I quickly took a 3-1 lead..
Than, I somewhat collapsed, he got a come back, which made it 3-3. At 3-3, something quite lame happened. Me and SJ both had 1h. I was shooting bouncers to him, but, he accidentaly killed Umba at that time as well. I thought I had killed him, so ran to carrot, but he didn't die, so I got killed. -_-' made it 4-3.
After that, I had to be carefull, it resulted in a 5-4 win to me. (I was quite lucky at 4-4 though.)

Second round: Untitled snow level. Score: 0-5 (SuperJazz) Host: Umba.

This was.. well, I got owned. It was my first duel there, and maybe my 4th match there. So, everything went wrong. (And I had quite some airhits at the seek pu.)
I couldnt win here anyways.

Third round: Jungle's Edge. Score: 5-1 (Vegito) Host: Umba.

This was.. fast.
I quickly got a 2-0 lead, but, after that, SJ started lagging or something. at 4-1, I was like '(-)' already. He had 1 heart, I shot carrot down, but somehow, he got the carrot. Somewhere after that, I killed him in a weird way. He hit me, I hit him, I was up, just got the carrot, and he came up again, so I killed him. Right after that, he CTO'ed. It was his connection, and it was a 3hk.. (the first 3hk in game, I think.)
oh well.. GG (overall)

Done with Veg. Since it's Christmas Eve today I rather wouldn't like to write a full match report but anyway short comments. There wasn't much anything special during the rounds though he got some airhits...

The Semi-round was just really close and his choice. He strangely avoided my hits sometimes while I could for example kill him in a tactical way. He also happened to think he roasted me once I roasted Umba who was the host meanwhile he was chasing me. Then I managed to roast him for that anyway. But then the last one was kind of annoying for the carrot being shot down for me and floating for him.
Then on round 2 we played Untitled Snow Level of kinda my choice. It after all seemed he didn't really try to even play at his best, but got almost roasted a few times however.
On round 3 I was just confused and small but a bit strange airhits happened to me as well while I was down at the seeker-pu. Somewhat I just couldn't manage to make it safe after taking his flag and got roasted in a row. And I don't after all get it, but once I saw Veg scoring 5th point, which was in fact a 3hk for me, I got timed out. I'm shortly getting annoyed. >.<

Soo, I was actually aiming to reach just the semi-finals in either bracket, I luckily got a bit further and I am somewhat pleased. But then again I would have been more eagered to duel Fs some-time. Actually Veg could have just gave up because he won JDC 11 already. j/k

Only 1 match remaining! Vegito vs. FireSworD in a mighty final showdown!
Places 3 and 4 of this cup are divided:

3) Vivando
4) Blackraptor

Finals will most likely be played this weekend, maybe tonight already.

Clan Cup subscriptions start next monday! (I'll open a new thread with more info then)

4th place doesn't get anything does it? ;(. sucks.

GO VEG!!!!!1 CC; POWAH LOLZ

..turns out Trafton can no longer say all C-C members are out of the tournament...yet?

Duh... I just wish I had done a bit better myself. Things didn't exactly... go my way. =P

same here *blames veg* :p

why blaming me? ;[

because of PROVIDING 3HK AND LAG ;[

How come the news section on the JJ2WC site is still down?

Because I'm too lazy to fix CuteNews.

EDIT: Fixed. Expect more news later tonight ;)

It'll probably be played at friday ;P

I won with the rankings already for sure except for burned rabbit perhaps...plus that Veg might still go past me in that or a shared place with Fs. :lol:
