International Take a 0th Off xaelar Week

Postby **darkshadow** » 2008.10.30 (19:49)

143641. Do I get bonus points for beating xaelar on his own level?:D

Edit: I hadn't even seen TheAdster's demo. I guess my route would be faster using that start.
Edit: 134675 which is a *0th

I took Epsiode 97 - speedrun.
I don't get very far with those speedruns, I see.
What's up with xaelar? There are many runs which aren't beated by him yet..

Woah, that was a sick run Dark :D

http://nmaps.net/user/Etz · Postby **Etz** » 2008.10.30 (21:11)

Took Episode 95 - speedrun.
Yeah, pretty sick run, darkshadow.

That run was intense... After 2 hours playing my own level I beat you by 4 frames. But it was strange: I nearly lost the hope to beat you cause I made about 10 runs just few frames slower than you, in those 2 hours. I sweared that I would try 5 more minutes and then I'll give up. In the last minute I started a run and just felt that there was something, something there wasn't before, and you can guess it, I did it :D I could feel that I would beat him with that one run.
Well, there are too much runs to take back, so I will concentrate on my own maps, and I will defend them. If you can beat me on one of my own maps, you'll get 200 points. (If Dan is ok with that ;D)

This will help: http://nmaps.net/browse?q=author:xaelar

ska, if you submit, the points will be yours, because you become 0th in a level I was 0th when the competition started. That's what I'm thinking.

*Sniffle* why must you only retake runs by me:(

Edit: You submitted 175-0 after I'd written this.

Ep 40 ;)

EDIT : well, i can't download metanet highscore, so i've submitted it just on nreality. I'm the only one who has this problem ?

and another 200pts for me then on 134675 (my old demo was 171.525, guess I had to improve some more to beat xaelar too ;)

Postby **darkshadow** » 2008.11.01 (01:12)

I'll admit this is partially out of self-interest but isn't valuing a xaelar level 0th at 20 times a speedrun 0th kinda invalidating of anything other than 0-99 scores.

Edit: When I made the joke at first I was imagining something like 50 points.
Edit 2: 135-0, 132-0, 155-1, 155-2, 140-4 and 137-4. 138-1 retaken.

Scoreboard updated. I think we're going to stick with the regular weightings, as it might be unfair to add such a stipulation this late in the competition. I hope that's okay with you guys.

Only just over 24 hours for you to submit 0ths! Go for as many as you can.

http://nmaps.net/user/xaelar · Postby **xaelar** » 2008.11.01 (13:34)

Oh I didn't know there was such little time left.

Anyway, 134675 is mine again.

Better get your runs in!

http://nmaps.net/user/ska · Postby **ska** » 2008.11.02 (01:01)

hmm
which level did I take off you last night xaelar? You know, the tinny one :D

http://nmaps.net/user/Infernus · Postby **Infernus** » 2008.11.02 (04:40)

Times up for submitting 0ths! Please don't edit in any 0ths, as I will be checking timestamps.

xaelar can defend for the next three days. I will tally up everyone's scores, and hopefully have a verdict by friday or so.

Thanks to everyone who participated!

http://nmaps.net/user/Izzy · Postby **Izzy** » 2008.11.05 (21:26)

http://nmaps.net/user/Infernus · Postby **Infernus** » 2008.11.06 (23:36)

Here are the winners:

1: eru_bahagon: 6 0ths, 600 points

3: ska: 3 0ths, 120 points

Congratulations guys. Prizes on the way ;)

Thanks to everyone who competed, there were some amazing runs generated throughout the week. I hope you enjoyed it!

Again, thanks to xaelar for his efforts. He truly is a god among us mortals.

NB. Please post if there are any discrepancies in the results that you would like raised.

Wow! Sick job everybody.. Just out of interest, on what levels did I still have 0ths on?
