Good games Jazzerman! Fun times and well played. I need to run to work so I'll let you post the match details but Jazzerman advances to the finals!

Looking forward to my third place matches!

Aye, very fun matches, good games and good luck.

Ok Vlad, I'll tee up our two matches tonight or tomorrow. 3rd place prize on the line! Good luck!

 

[OmegaDragon]

Oof, so when I had the idea of "hey, let's try something stupid and risky" in the tiebreaker, I underestimated how stupid and risky it would be. Dead in two turns

Tie Breaker (Semi-Finals)
Player A: DunderHassan // Win // Killed Soldiers: 4 // Lost Soldiers: 0
Player B: Vlad // Loss // Killed Soldiers: 0 // Lost Soldiers: 4

Got a crazy lucky grenade here.
Vlad took a huge risk and it would have been interesting to see how that could have played out if I didn't get catch them sneaking around.

Wow

Congrats DunderHassan and Jazzerman.

 

[Toma]

So what is the state on the last few matches, guys?

Me and Dunder were busy on Sunday, but we played two games, tie breaker remaining.

[Najaf]

Vlad and I are finishing up match 2 of the third place final. I'm ahead with 1 win. We're tied up with a kill each so far in match 2.

 

[Vlad]

So what is the state on the last few matches, guys?

As far as my third-place matches against Najaf, I already lost one of them and the second one is plugging along.

 

[Jazzerman]

Player A: Jazzerman // Draw // Killed Soldiers: 2 // Lost Soldiers: 2
Player B: DunderHassan // Draw // Killed Soldiers: 2 // Lost Soldiers: 2
Game ID: 1345689

So... DunderHassan is going to be busy until next week and suggested we call a tie, which I'm cool with. What's your take Toma?

Perfectly fine, so I am just going to throw a coin to throw who gets first dips from the price pool.

 

[Vlad]

Well, looks like that's the end of that for me and Najaf, too. Our second game was a draw, but he won the third, giving him the bronze.

 

[Codeblue]

I suppose a coin flip is better than DunderHassan and Jazzerman playing to a draw for eternity. Congrats on first place to both of you.

 

[Acccent]

Congrats to Jazzerman and DunderHassan!!

Spoiler

we all know Jazzerman would have won eventually though

 

[Corto]

Jazzerman! It's like I have won also... A little bit... Please let me have this small victory . hehe

 

[Jazzerman]

Congrats to Jazzerman and DunderHassan!!

Spoiler

Naw, you should watch the game. It was an unfortunate mistake that led to a draw rather than a win for DunderHassan.

[titch]

Well done everyone - my short lived time in the comp was fun.

Looking at the top players its easy to see why my time was over quickly.











Cause i am rubbish at FS!!!

 

[DunderHassan]

Well then, congratulations everyone It was immensely fun to organize and pull through with this tournament. I hope everyone had fun and increased his hype levels for FS2.

Thanks again everyone! Super fun

Thank YOU Toma for organizing this, it's been awesome, I just hope I didn't come off like a bitching fool with all my rematch requests lol.

Naw, you should watch the game. It was an unfortunate mistake that led to a draw rather than a win for DunderHassan.

At least I didn't get killed by your sniper too, that would have destroyed me!
Congratulations Jazzerman, been a blast playing against you and everyone else.

As much as I would like to get a proper finish to this tournament, I gotta say it's such a relief to get FS off my mind after all these matches (and three tie-breakers).
Visions, visions all night!

I'll see if I might be able to get some time soon to upload youtube videos for you who prefer that or can't watch in FS.

 

[Jazzerman]

Well then, congratulations everyone It was immensely fun to organize and pull through with this tournament. I hope everyone had fun and increased his hype levels for FS2.

Cheers for organising this.

It was great fun and hopefully we all meet up in FS2 eventually! If anyone wants to continue playing matches in FS I'm currently very much back into this thanks to Toma. ;D

I'm definitely looking to pick up that FS2 beta invite, however that works! ;p

Looking forward to gifting you the rest of the money in form of a game whenever it strikes your fancy.

Updated the rest of the prize pool post. Najaf is up.

Poke me on Steam whenever you want me to buy you something for the 10$. Feel free to wait for a sale of whenever.

[Vlad]

So I guess that means I'm up. Was going to pick Tropico, but apparently I already owned it, so I'll choose 5 from the pile:

Massive Chalice
Cube & Star
Ms Splosion Man
The Bridge
Samorost 2

And yeah, like everyone else said, thanks for setting it all up, Toma!

I poked Acccent about it, as he was still posting here recently, it shouldnt take too long. I dont expect this, but if you dont get any news, please poke me again in a week or so.

Next up is OmegaDragon. If OmegaDragon doesnt reply until tomorrow, Acccent gets to pick first (and is likely taking Tropico then ). If you, Acccent, already own Tropico, please let me know.

 

[Acccent]

Naw, you should watch the game. It was an unfortunate mistake that led to a draw rather than a win for DunderHassan.

Haha, I didn't see the game but of course I wasn't serious and you are both great players

Thanks to everyone for playing and thanks Toma for organising the whole tournament! Echoing everyone else, it was great fun ^_^

Yup, sending codes asap!

Also, I actually don't really want Tropico; I don't have it, but it's another game that probably will stay untouched in my steam library for years, so it might as well go to someone else. I'm not going to pick 5 games from my own list either haha, so I'll let the others pick before me and then keep the remaining ones
(also that way, if some of the keys don't work for some reason, those can serve as a replacement)

Could you pm me your steam account name? I'd like to add you. (Or did we already add each other?) also in that case, CosmicSchwung is up next in case omega doesnt reply today.

Add me back please.

 

[The_Super_Inframan]

GG everyone

And thanks Toma for organizing this!

And yay, 8th place is better than I ever expected

 

[Toma]

Jazzerman should now have been contacted by the Frozen Synapse guys about the beta invites.

Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside how well this tourney ran. <3

 

[Toma]

Also, Accent now also has his prize. Omega, Cosmic, Infra missing, anyone here? To speed things up, if Omega and Cosmic dont reply until tonight, Infra gets first dips.
After that, first come first served.

#protip: if Toma ever requests to add you on steam, do it asap

thank you so much ^_^

 

[Instro]

Been a little behind on following this, congrats to Jazzerman. Great tournament folks.

 

[Toma]

So,free for all. Omega, Cosmic or Infra, whoever screams first picks his games.

 

[OmegaDragon]

I just screamed.

Congrats Jazzerman, DunderHassan and the rest. Thanks to Toma for hosting and everyone else for playing. It was a lot of fun.

 

[BigAT]

We apparently already had TWO tournaments, so this is the third.

Google sheet with group results and youtube links for the second tournament.

Also: crazy that we had like 60 participants in that one.

Did this tournament ever finish? I remember participating in it, then it just kind of died I think?

 

[Cosmic Schwung]

Well done to both Dunder and Jazzerman, and a massive thanks to Toma for arranging it all. Had a lot of fun.

 

[Toma]

Did this tournament ever finish? I remember participating in it, then it just kind of died I think?

Nope, it died because we were waiting for the update, and when it arrived, some participants couldnt be reached anymore.

 

[Corto]

Yep. Thanks Toma for putting this up. Hope to see you all guys on FS2 when that releases.

 

[Toma]

Sorry for the bump, but another thread was probably a tad overkill and this will reach the ones who subscribed to this thread. Mode7 apparently liked me organizing the tournament and asked me if I had interest to organize one for the whole community (not only GAF). So I am organizing a follow up tournament to this one for the whole FS community in collaboration with Mode7 on their forums:
http://forums.mode7games.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=10815

We have exactly 1 participant so far, which is ... a gaffer of course. Gonna be interesting to see how many gaffers will end up in that tournament again.

Prices are Keys for the FS2 Beta, Frozen Cortex and the nervous_testpilot discography.

Have fun!

 

[Palmer_v1]

Funny. Does that mean they're on GAF?

 

[Toma]

Funny. Does that mean they're on GAF?

I contacted them for the GAF tourney to ask for some gifts and Beta keys. They liked the idea and saw here that it went well, so they poked me about it.
