Termination: Crossword [Winner: ZionT]

[musteriuz]

Thanks for this tourney, amazzony. It was real fun and it would be a pity if you really don't do any more of them. Great stuff to all players in my group too - it was thrilling to compete against you all.

PS: I don't think you've updated our final scoreboard, though.

[ZionT]

Congrats, ZionT and joriki on advancing to finals in Division 1!

Thanks! Well played, everyone else, too, though -- it was a very close finish with wreckless and musteriuz. Overall, my advice to some of you would be to take more risks (pun intended). I got eliminated a couple of times after failing in a kill attempt, but I more than made up for it in other cases. I saw several instances of players waiting it out when they seemed to have a reasonably good chance for a kill -- especially if it's a kill that lets you cash in a group and continue.

I too would like to congratulate everyone in bracket 1 on a well played round. I have no idea how I finagled my way out of bracket 1... Good job joriki and all who made it further! To those who didn't, I shall laugh at you, j/k, come back and play next tourney.

BTW, I want to thank amazzony for putting together this amazing series. I love termination, it's the most exciting kill or be killed game style. As I understand someone will be doing these tourneys in the future, but you'll always be the best in my book!

so congrats to you as well!

First of all, divisional games have ended and we have our last 2 finalists. In finals, from Division 3, we will have Gamefreakguy and dominator2000. I've already made final games, sent them out and updated scoreboard. I've moved Divisional games to second post and finals are where divisional scoreboard was before.

PS: I don't think you've updated our final scoreboard, though.

Scoreboard is having some troubles for some reason, is it CC, Photobucket or something else, I don't know. But if you can't see the most up to date version then refresh your browser several times, in the end the correct version will pop up



musteriuz and ZionT, thank you for the kind words! I've talked before to a mystery person who might continue these series but haven't had contact with him for awhile now (we agreed to talk more about it when Crossword ends). So, keep your eyes open and everybody in my notification list will surely get a message when there should be another termination tournament (either by me or somebody else).

[Gamefreakguy]

AHA! Top terminator. Feels goooood to be king lol.

Look forward to the games starting now also!

Thanks Amazzingony.

Has anyone ever called you that?

Sorry, I tend to ramble when I'm bored.

Bye all.

And gl.

And gg soon.

But mainly just gl.

[amazzony]

Gamefreakguy, thank you for the rant And no, I haven't been called like that.


All final games are active!

[Gamefreakguy]

Yeah, it's a mix of your name and "amazing". And don't worry, this post will be more under control.

[ZionT]

Game 3706357 is over...

ZionT 3 kills
Gamefreakguy 2 kills

GG all

[amazzony]

Thanks, ZioT! I've gathered all currently made kills from final games and they are below. I will not update the scoreboard because it's annoying and photobucket or CC or whatever has problems so it makes updating harder and I don't have time for the trouble right now.


Player - Kills [overall: 10/25]

Gamefreakguy - 4
ZionT - 3
joriki - 2
Godd - 1
dominator2000 - 0
lgoasklucyl - 0

[ZionT]

Game 3706352 is over...

ZionT wins, but alas only 2 kills:

ZionT 2 kills
joriki 2 kills
Godd 1 kill

GG all!

[ZionT]

Game 3706359 is over...

ZionT - 3 kills
Godd - 1 kill
Gamefreakguy - 1 kill

GG all!

[Gamefreakguy]

Yikes I have a feeling it's close... I won't look through all the previous games, I'll just wait for the result.

Only 1 left to finish and it's a close one.

Thanks Amazzony this was a great tourney!

[amazzony]

You are right, it is close.

Here's current standings with one game left (Game 3706362) and there's only 2 kills left (I've counted first 3). Currently Gamefreakguy and ZionT are equal and they are both capable of winning it.

Player - Kills

Gamefreakguy 8
ZionT 8
joriki 5
Godd 2
dominator2000 0
lgoasklucyl 0

[joriki]

OK, I've finished the last game. I took the last two kills, which brings me within one point of the other two, but one point too few nonetheless . In German we say "knapp daneben ist auch vorbei", meaning "close, but no cigar" (more literally: "a close miss is still a miss"). Congratulations to ZionT and gamefreakguy!

[joriki]

amazzony -- thanks for running this tournament -- it was an interesting challenge and a close race in both rounds. Please put me on your notification list.

[amazzony]

Thanks for letting me know that last game has ended. This is not the best solution that I hoped for my last Termination tournament but nevertheless, ZionT and Gamefreakguy will play a series of 5 1v1 games and whoever wins 3+ games, wins the tournament. I will try to make the games later today, after supper.

[Gamefreakguy]

Awesome, I look forward to it!

Not that it will make your demise any less catastrophic, Mr. Zion T.

[ZionT]

Man, I get all the way to the finals, roll off three wins, then this jerk takes the all the kills from one game and here I am getting insulted.



I can't wait to devastate the Gamefreakguy! Oh and sorry ZZ's on the extra games, Que Lastima!

I'm j/k good luck buddy!

BTW, as a side note joriki played an excellent tournament all the way through and was truly a constant CC gamesman.

[Gamefreakguy]

Well, I'm proud to have come in 1st place in Round 1, having the most kills out of everyone!

Let's keep up the consistency!

[amazzony]

Just wanted let everybody know that since now until Sunday/Monday I'll be busy and won't update anything until then. Sorry for the delay!

Agreed, joriki has shown a great attitude in the tournament.


Final tiebreakers have began. I remembered a few days later that for them to begin I have to make them Finally they were made and both finalists got into their really fast.

Scoreboard is also fully updated with current standings.

[ZionT]

Game 3788672 is over!

ZionT wins... 3-2!

Woohoo on first tourney win, I'm very excited.

Good game Gamefreakguy, you played great!

[amazzony]

[joriki]

Congratulations, ZionT! You worked hard for it. But also to gamefreakguy -- only one game difference in the tie breaker -- it could have gone either way...

[musteriuz]

Well done, ZionT, you're a worthy winner.

[Spinal]

Well done ZionT!
