I believe Laser Explosion is all set to score a lucky win against a team of rabid min/maxers.

Has every single match in the playoffs so far gone down 4-1? e: Yes. Weird. A sign of longer matches with more armoured opponents, I suspect.

Well that settles it, definitely need another test tournament after this one to trial these new changes.

Great write-up, I enjoyed the read. Anthony's and Mogwai's builds doing exactly what they were meant to is lovely to see. Tonic is nice and efficient too (until his arms fall off). Dory put up a really scary fight though, we were dead lucky he got isolated 3 on 1.

Spermy Smurf posted:Thanks for posting bet results. Want to post the betting leaderboard too? Nobody can see the tournament under current tournaments anymore, but if you go to Manage Fighters you can get to it via your fighter's page. P.S. thank you so much for running all those fights!

Jazzimus Prime posted:The betting pages should no longer fail now, they should at least let you choose which tournament to look at. I should probably change it so that it defaults to the most recently completed tournament with an option to choose a different one from there, but that will require more work. If I were designing this, I'd say that a just-completed tournament should remain "open" for 1 week and after that it should default to the "list of completed tournaments" page.

Let people spend points to field an extra fighter. But make it cost so much that only the little guys can afford it.

A Good Result. Although, Bogroll made far more of a meal of all that than the kill tallies suggest. Literally so, at the point where he bit off Windybold's middle finger. I'm assuming the dodgy little fucker had made a rude gesture.

Splode posted:a While this is also true of me, the images do help to visually break up the wall of text. If the posts are more condensed summaries they probably don't need images in the middle. And yes, post the combat logs so those with a stake in the fight can brag about their fighter's exploits.

I'm working on a script that will auto generate somewhat readable text-only write-ups from combat logs. If I ever finish it I'll run a mini tournament to test it out

Spermy Smurf posted:Just take two screenshots and then move the blood spatter and fighters in mspaint. These people are idiots and dont notice year in and year out. I literally don't look at the screen caps. I might glance at the combat log if the fight sounds interesting. Mostly I'm focused on the words, which is why I think my idea of automating generation of write-ups from the combat log might have legs. Let the commish edit it a bit and throw in some googled flavour images like my dad is doing, bam, done.

Nice writeup! But yeah. You now understand why burnout is a thing and I've been racking my brains for ways to make writing fights up easier. You definitely don't need to step through the whole fight - I tended to let it run for a second or two and then look up what happened in the log. Nor do you need to record every single hit, just the really significant/interesting ones. Also I personally don't look at the images much, even when it's my fight. They are just there to break up the wall of text as getting any actual info out of them involves peering and comparing minutely with earlier images. If I wrote up another fight I think I'd probably only have a couple of screenshots and break up the rest with funny pics from Deviantart..
