Unavoidable tournaments! Direct fights

[pier4r]

Congrats to Ritter for his new win (and all the others that participate).

With the new format and the possible collaboration with mrchris (evilgenius) I started to output the results on html rather than console. Now I guess that maintaining two outputs (moreover I want to improve the console output) is a bit too much so I will stop caring about the console output for now.

This means that the final results cannot be saved directly on the forum and that is a bit of a pity, because I would like that the most data stays in one point as "future proof" storage (it happened in the past, in ther games, that old results were lost).

For now I will host the html files on one of the Nth hosting accounts that I have that are not really oritiented to for basic html, but it will do it.

So. Tournament no 16, day 7 of 7,

One can see that the new score rewards a tad too much the strength, because I did not play much in the week (round about 200 games), still I collected a lot of points because I played against players with 1500+ average score. While to collect activity it is not exactly that trivial. No one wants to spam games just losing.

Anyway, it may be revised in the future.

Thx for collecting the data and keeping the tournament running

[pier4r]

It is a pleasure , the gladiabots db has still to be drilled properly! I need to have more time!

[pier4r]

Ritter dominated again.Chris second, milkhunter new entry. I got perfectly balanced between activity and score xD.

Noticing how Aahron is getting smaller negative strength scores, so if he continues to play he may be a new mrchris/pikey. Pikey actually went inactive for the moment. Hopefully he will be back to pass the 10k games mark.

Most close tournament ever seen in months, amazing!

Interesting to see that in terms of strength chris, me and PEW were all there while ritter and milkhunter were on their own.

Ahron finally had a positive strength score. Kudos to all the active players over 100+ score of activity. (although the activity score is not as "easy" as the strength score to collect, if one is strong)

If you click on the details you get also the strength per map.

Impressive that mind game has 3 strong players (and not only mcompany), while this time Ritter dominates SYP.

Oh i was thinking to have a more bad strenght result

[pier4r]

Chris wins again with an impressive activity! Ritter was close (holidays).

For the rest interesting performance by castlevania, sollniss, darth zanna and mcompany (mcompany super active).

Sneak peek of the current tournament. Chris, Ritter and Buzzefall are very close

[pier4r]

Another look in the current tournament (that will end on sunday, 23.59, Paris time)

Chris just exploded!

But remember, activity score can just go up (even if, it is very difficult that it will reach 300. Chris reached 300 of activity score with 1600 games in a week, so a not-too-difficult-to-reach activity score is around 120) while strength score can go up or down, according to how the opponents improve (or get smashed) later in the week.

[pier4r]

Chris pushes up in the hall of fame!

Update of the tournament in progress.

Chris and Buzz very close. My (pier) strength points are puny! But I may recover later or maybe not. Interesting the new player "chab", hopefully he is not a metor.

[pier4r]

Surprise surprise.

Buzzefall obliterates everyone!

Chris super active (and also pretty strong) is able to stay over ritter. Also beethoven (that I may rename cynic alex) is improving a lot.

I screwed up and I ended with less than 100 strength points (also, I could / did not want to farm 1700 players when those where the only active, I like to see the activity made by matches with close scores)

Tough week. Congrats buzz and Chris. Gg

[TheKidPunisher]

I like to see that for each new tournament i got selectionned, i got less point than the previous one... hard improvement has to be done...

[Ritter Runkel]

Your TKP Account is on the edge to go to the positive side of the scale. I'm sure you will be in the top 10 in the next weeks.

[TheKidPunisher]

I was 12th with 61pts at the tournament 18. And with only assault account... i think i just surprise everyone and now everybody i just farming me...

[TheGnoo]

Yeah, the problem is, you have a huge disadvantage against anyone else with your only assault strategy. Sniper is so good when the opponent loses it.. and machinegun deals twice more dmg than the assault bot.
I think you should try to get up to 1800+ with TKP and then play on this account just for fun.

Also, only assaults will be always weaker, so imho, you should try sneaky strategies to beat the top10, like rushing ressources or things like that!
Or maybe find a way to "hit and run", that way you can attack a machine gun or sniper and run away before he can finish its shot. Hard to do though, I didn't success for now.

[pier4r]

I like to see that for each new tournament i got selectionned, i got less point than the previous one... hard improvement has to be done...

If, for the week, you keep an average score over 1500 and play more than 70 games, you get in. I discovered it is pretty effective to pick people that played a bit (at least 10 games per day on avg).

[pier4r]

Tournament 22, not yet ended

A quick look. I do not even appear, damn me, Buzz, unless he gets farmed by many other players, is headed to the win.

Chris and ritter are quite close. Also lubeno may have chances.

The others may play a lot but without "quality" they cannot hope to break the top3. But it is anyway better to be the 6th than the 7th (personal opinion).

Moreover better to be in the tournament than to be outside it (since it is an elite tournament compared to the rest of the playerbase).

[Ritter Runkel]

It's so hard to fight that many games and be on top. Thumbs up for Chris and buzz.

For me I need time after every loss, so it's 1/3 playing, 2/3 debugging.

Imho the balance between activity score and strength is fine. I know I could play more, it's possible, but I don't have the time. So that's my personal problem and that shouldn't be rewarded.
