Paulo Valmir - 0 (waiting til the last minute yet again?)

Doing it once is not nice but probably ok as it could have been "accidental" or lack of time to play, but a 2nd time should be a DQ.

We're not changing the rules to punish people like that, even if I find it extremely disappointing. I still think there needs to be some sort of system to encourage people to NOT always wait til the last minute to upload, but it's difficult to come up with a reasonable system for a tournament like this. All we can do is ask for some good sportsmanship. Anyway, he didn't end up submitting a score so...


As for this game... yeah, uhhh, it certainly didn't turn out as well as we hoped. We didn't anticipate the difficulty driving people to purely go for points by strategically suiciding over and over. That's the risk you run with games like these, I guess.

And thus, of the 4 players remaining, 3 of them hail from Italy. Who will advance past the semi-finals in the next round?

One solution, the tie ends anytime between 3 and 10 days (for example) since its inception. A draw and only moderators know the exact day

Congratulations RAX!

I didn't beat my Saturday's 94k score.

I was really going well in the previous stages, sometimes reaching St12 with 38k ~ 40k, but in the end, almost all you did in previous stages are not valid.

I trained and studied until about St25, but it's hard and would be necessary reach about St35 to pass 100k, and it's not easy during one week, at least not for me.

I tried to use other joystick, because it's hard to shot only ONE shot, and it's important in some stages to get great combos.

In short, overall, it's not luck-only... but 80% yes! Well done anyway! Despite nii-san is my friend, I hope you win this competition Rax! Good luck! See you next time!

Oh yeah, PG3 was your salvation and also thanks to Goldtimes for sharing.
