Hype threat level: elevated. The national standards for extreme hype threat is less than 24 hours, and a delay of expected results of more than one month.

So, I was able to persuade ska into giving me a preview of the results video... Hope I'm not giving too much away here.

Phew, thank god, I thought the 24h hype from the 15th would have finished. I'm back, although I'll be away during a couple short periods, neither of which reach a week long though so it won't be a problem.

Definitely not a rickroll.

Edit: As an aside, can someone please turn this document containing the demos into a more manageable file? I would, but I'm really busy, so I just slopped this together.

Also, here's a special bonus video as an apology for making you guys wait so long.


Sorry, wait <2 hours

Omg finally. Thanks ska.
Click at your own risk: contains spoilers

Edit: Ska, in your video you put macro as victorious in Highscore in the table. Eddy beat him though.

I'd knew I'd make a bloody mistake. I made like 3 before releasing that video. Standby for a re-up.

Those were some very cool routes on my map, and everything I hoped for when making it.

Congrats and good luck to those still in the competition!

Highscore map:

Speedrun map:

Please submit your runs before Saturday, August 29, 2015, at 11:59 PM (Melbourne time)


Bonus: Since Eddy has byes on both rounds, he currently has no incentive to make any runs, so I have decided to give an extra incentive for everyone, including Eddy: The next round will only be seven days; however, the overall 0th-scorer from each map this week will get to see the respective map (or maps if they get 0th in both categories) three days before anyone else (making it a total of ten days for these players). In the unlikely event of a tied 0th, all tied players will get the time advantage (assuming the tied players aren't in a direct match-up, in which case, only the first player to submit their run will qualify.) Let me reiterate: players with byes have no obligation to PM me any runs; I am merely leaving the option open for you to try to secure an edge for the next round. All players still in the competition are eligible for this advantage. Good luck!

Just finished watching last round's video, very nice runs all. I thought my speedrun would have been good enough to win but I forgot I was up against macro :p
This round's highscore map looks pretty painful to run, hopefully I get enough time to put up a decent fight.

I will not be able to play at all until 24th, so that means we can either agree on an exception to give me at least a few days for my highscore run or all I can say is gratz, van.

I am willing to make advanced exceptions, so long as everyone gets the same benefit; therefore, in light of this, I have extended the deadline to 11:59 PM on Saturday, 29 August. The deadline in my previous post has been modified to reflect this.

I agree, the commentary is really what made it so good, although it was neck and neck with the quality of the runs for most of the time. Personally, my favorite part was the crushing disappointment in ska's voice when he got to the end of my run.
