Hey ! W8 I'm coming up !

I have updated everyone and have added another rule for the game. I'm figuring the date and time out now, and I have the mapools done I'm going to post them in just a few minutes. 
6. IMPORTANT: Sitting on the side of the map is against the rules. After 3 seconds there you will gain double your points for every second you stay there AFTER 3 seconds.Hmm, how exactly do you plan to enforce this rule? Sounds like it could get a bit complicated to enforce clearly.

Well I was just making a point that it won't be enjoyable if you just stay in the corner hoping you don't catch one. So, there will be referees spectating making sure that if the person is there, they aren't just sitting there for more than 3 seconds. As for the "After 3 seconds there you will gain double your points for every second you stay there," the person who is refereeing will see they are sitting there for 3 seconds, and so will count until that person moves, thus leaving them with double the points times however long they sat there. I can see where it can get confusing and where it could be complicated to enforce. I plan to polish it out by time the tournament starts.TomTheWizard wrote:

Why not choose maps that covers the whole screen and staying at the side wouldn't be effective at all? Idk just a suggestion :cTomTheWizard wrote:

I mean you have a point there. I have chosen a few maps that do just that. But no matter what I've looked at really hard songs and most still have a small amount of time where you can still sit in the corner for at least 5-6 seconds.-LeeP- wrote:

Hello everyone. So I've been changing my schedule around trying to find time for Round 1 to take place (Hence why I have not put a time and date down yet). However, I've been thinking about a time and date but I want everyone's opinion on it. The time format I will be using is UTC for everyone to calculate their time. I will list a site right here in case you don't know how to convert. ---> http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc
Now regarding the time is what I want to get an idea from everyone. I want to begin Round 1 next weekend. Saturday to be exact. Now the time I was thinking somewhere between 7 UTC and 11 UTC. That's where I'm wanting your opinion on where in that time frame it should start. Now I know some people wont be able to make it and that's very unfortunate to hear. If you can't make it within that time then just message me and I'll take you off the list and then maybe you can make it next time. I wish my schedule was a tad bit more flexible but right now with my job, it's not giving me any time to stretch for you all. I really want this to work so 7 - 11 UTC will be around like 4 - 5 am for me and I'm pretty sure I'll have to work that day. But I'm still going to do it.
I'm going to leave a link for everyone to vote and see when it should start and I'll give it say 2 days from the time this is posted for the votes. Again I'm sorry if this is not within your schedule and it's okay if you can't make it. I'll gladly have you back for the next one. So with that being said best of luck dodging.

About this...wouldnt people just abuse this and camp on the side? I mean if you have 0 points....0 times 2 is, well 0. So does it double your end score for each second? Or instantaneously....please explain this o.o

Hmm it does seem you have a valid point there. I didn't think of that. Think it should be a DQ instead?NoBodyYouKnow0 wrote:

I didn't think about anyone commentating. Hmm I guess I can try streaming it, but I don't have tournament client and with the date I chose it would be too soon to get it. So I'll have to spectate to do it. So I'm guessing yeah if you're available and want to commentate then sure.Evrien wrote:
Can I commentate for this?
Hope i can in to the tournament..
When you stay on the side of the screen, unless you don't move a fruit will eventually fall on you, its just that those two sides are the places where fruits fall the least

True but staying on the sides takes the fun out of dodge the fruit.Koolaidminah wrote:

I put you down but there is no gurantee that you'll be in the tournament.Minalinsky- wrote:

I have you on the list for if someone entered cannot make it and informs me before the start of the tournament I use who's on this list to put in there spot. So just maybe you can get it. If not I hope you'll enter for the next one that I have.If UTC = GMT, then I'm in. That should be absolutely no problem to me.

Okay so the votes are saying 11 UTC. Now will that be 11+UTC? or 11 for Universal Central Time? I can do either as my schedule has cleared up for Saturday. When I was talking about the time I think I may have put it wrong making it sound as if we should start on the time of 11+UTC when I was actually talking about 11 UTC (Aka. Universal Central Time/ Yes not UTC but whatever). I can do 11+UTC if that's what everyone was wanting. I made the mistake writing that so if that is what everyone wanted then that'll be it. Let me know.
Okay then.. DickyPS and Minalinsky- are same i just change username yesterdayInsaneToe wrote:

You've confused me. By 11+UTC, do you mean from 11 UTC onwards? If so, I'm not going to be able to, as I won't be able after around 11 on Saturdays. SorryInsaneToe wrote:

Your tournament is kinda different from the rest so what do you expect xdInsaneToe wrote:

See that's what was confusing me. Haha I wanted to use the Coordinated Universal Time zone and use what everyone had voted on which most votes went towards 11. Now I put on the voting 11 UTC but 11 UTC would be a different time than using UTC+0 zone.TehDragonGuy wrote:

This is confusing but here's what I wanted. I was going to use 11 UTC (again which is Coordinated Universal Time zone) and everyone was going to calculate their time using the link I provided. If you couldn't make it then you were to message me saying you couldn't. Now, with everyone voting for 11 UTC that's when you converted your time and there you have the time to be there.
What is confusing is putting 11 UTC seems like you're saying 11+UTC which is way different than what I was talking about. I wanted 0+UTC which is the Coordinated Universal Time zone. So for me converted living in the US would be like 7 am if what everyone wanted and said 11 UTC.
I hope this explains everything, if not and we need another vote to change time I'll need to know quickly.
To clarify, is this true?

If yes, then you guys can use this link to *automatically* convert the time to your own timezone,

Yeah so if you're not sure about the time and everything then like athin said and what I posted already then go to this site linked right below here.

Convert it to your location and you'll have the time. Now if you cannot make it just message me and it'll be okay. I won't be angry, I'll actually thank you for telling me instead of waiting till last second. So I hope this works out for everyone as it was decided by you all, if it's not what everyone wants we can do a re-poll and decide a new time to help everyone. But if it's fine then great. It's more than likely gonna stick after tomorrow so no more confusion.
With that being said keep on practicing those maps and I hope everyone can make it Saturday for the first round. BEST OF LUCK!
