Any news on this?

Sorry. RL kicks you in the head when you least expect it... I spent most of the weekend coding and frankly, I couldn't bring myself to write the pretenders down when I've just spent 20 hours in front of borland Jbuilder.

I'll do them today, honest

No worries! I can live with some delay before I learn of my defeat...

(Isn't it good to be pessimistic? You're never disappointed about the results you get!)

Apparently my word is still worth zilch. The clock is 0:49 and I'm damned tired. All pretenders written in but still have to generate the game, research the spells, and set orders. I'll do it first thing tomorrow after school.

Well, someone suggested this. The results were repeating, until a certain pretender joined the stage, winner was uncertain, after that all fights were taken by him.

What is really funny is that abysia had some hilarius 2-fight performance, looking like sure winner in the first fight but not following his script on the second.

Notes: I hope I got everything right, if you think I messed something up I still have the save from turn before, so I can fix it and see if results still correlate.

The battle order is not random at ALL, it's just direct order of nation numbers.

I forgot to do the exp thingie, but there were only 2 heroics in the fights, both with precision and neither used spells that uses precision.

Oh, am I going to announce the winner?

No, you'll have to dl the file and see fot yourself. The winner combatant is named after a forum name.

Whoa. Its direct order of nation numbers? Is that how it is with normal battles? People have always said it was random but I dont know of anyone having actually tested it.

Can't wait to d/l this when I get home!

can you post the turn file for 1 before the battle?

Huzurdaddi · #87 March 15th, 2005, 07:16 PM

Nice battles! Good strategy person who shall remain nameless, dont want to ruin it for others who have not seen the battles.

Tuna · #88 March 15th, 2005, 07:23 PM

Why not.

:cries:

And I was doing so well...

I think Hellbinds and Mind Enslaves are UNFAIR! I mean, that's not what did me in, but it probably would have

A contest without them would be much more fun, since they change it from a "Supercombattant" contest into a "Supermage" contest that depends only on who goes first.

Also, I like the way my tail was chopped off, and then regrew for the next battle!

Edit:

Thanks for hosting this, Tuna!

Edit 2:

Hope that didn't sound like I was whining... I was whining, of course, I just don't want it to sound like I was

The reason that Abysia and Panagea did not follow the script in the second fight
is that 'Hellbind heart' and 'Petrify' have maximum ranges. I thought that
the winner was going cold turkey on Dominions... If I had know she was entering
the contest after all, I'd have stocked on more magic resistance ;-)
