I'm leaving tomorrow for Xmas and I'm not sure if I will be back exactly next tuesday ; so maybe there will be a little delay for the 10th game

Thanks for infos, Des (and thanks to those who confirm scores) ;
update has been fast :)

Now we can say that you've won WCC4 ... congrats .. again !
many great scores this time also

But I see only 3 guys had played this game ; that means you could have gathered 5 points with a score of 10 ...
Which makes me wonder what will be the future of WCC4
(after Gameboy asking about time trial)

I've tried to pick different type of games, but mainly 4 or 5 players have competed ; I was expecting usual players will give a go to at least one of the games, but even if they do (I've seen guys giving scores on the Irc channel) they don't upload :(
Better : someone claimed a finish inp and never upload.

The idea of WCC was to focus the more players as we can on a game during a week ; if only 3 are playing, I just feel depressed

The only good point is that we had very nice fights on several games (pwrinst-spdcoin-pass ...)

Avoiding the Korean ripoffs might help a bit... :)

Also, if my math is correct, destructor actually clinched the title after week 8.

He had 82 points and the second place player had 54. One can earn a maximum of 13 points each week, and with two weeks left he was 28 points ahead.

There was little incentive to play week 9, especially if the people involved didn't particularly like "drop" games.

Good point John. The future of the time trial is going to be a straight TG-style decathalon to last one month instead of the week-by-week thing I was doing... so maybe it'll garner more interest... but I have a MARP friend of mine who hits the lack of interest reason right on the money...
