This is an idea I had for a contest in my sleep a few nights ago - waking with a EUREKA!

Basically, I make a map, I submit a highscore and speedrun to that map and let you have a go at it.

As many people can participate - but here is the catch. You are not allowed to beat my score on these maps. No, I'm not trying to get 0ths, but see how good you are at judging your pace.

If you do beat my score - you are eliminated.
If you do not post a run - you are eliminated.
If you finish in last place - you are eliminated.

Second batch of rules; Don't cheat. I know this is a fairly obvious rule, and thanks to van for pointing it out, but don't change your sol or delete runs or whatever. It ruins the fun for everybody.

Good luck, and try to lose! :D

Just post AYE if you want to join, or feel free to ask questions here or on IRC, in the #n-highscores channel.

Also, did I mention scores do not have to be AGDs? Although mssing them will be an easy way to come last.

in
for other contestants: join only if you are able to be fair and honest

AYE!

Aye. Aye. Aye. I think you're nuts!

IN!

AYE, gov'nr (I suck at these kind of comps)

INNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN !

Sign me up.

AYE

In. I promise I won't cheat. :D

Slowing down is the worst part of any run.

But I'll try anyway.

In, because this sounds like a good challenge. Oh, sorry, AYE

AYE!

how long do you think it's going to take? if people are too cautious about their runs (i.e. only 1 person being eliminated each round), you might want to think about eliminating 2 people each round. I mean, long competitions tend to lose contestans interest (as i can see in BLUR, i should have made it shorter)
on the other hand, it's also possible that half of contestants will be eliminated in 1st round, so :P
what's the registrations deadline?

AYE

bum ba da bum AYE bummm

moo, I'm a cow I'M IN

And you didn't say "AYE" so you're not in.

Aye. Great idea.

The contest will start as soon as 20 people sign up - and sign ups can still continue until the end of the first round.

So recommend it to anybody you know! :DDD

Also, I shall decide how many people get eliminated based on the final scores, so 1 might go out, maybe 3. So try not to be too slow. :D

AYE

This is awesome.

I'm in. I do this naturally lol.

I. eye. Aye.

AYE.

Aye
