You may use any settings you like
Any additional games played on a map you've already defeated whamBot or SassBot on will not be included in your final score

[Gilligan]

I'm in!

[Leehar]

We need to play 250+ games?

[Gilligan]

We need to play 250+ games?

There are only ~70 maps you can use with bots, not all of them

[denominator]

So we're basically playing in 4 simultaneous, self-directed tournaments at once?

[Swifte]

sure... i'm in

[sempaispellcheck]

Up to 4 - you can play in as many or as few of the 4 as you'd like.
But yes, they are simultaneous and more or less self-directed - mainly because bots cannot be invited to games.

Being a freemium I probably won't be doing the "Bot was I thinking" ones, but still.

[ltcomdata]

[betiko]

so how does it go to diferenciate all maps/longest winning streak?

i will use map rank, tour stats and some good old fashion Game Finder with player & bot.

the winning streak should be easiest. all who think they have a shot will post their streak in this thread and i'll check. for Bot Was I Thinking i'll create a database of all contenders.

So we agree that if we go through all maps vs one or the other, and win them all, we can t use those 70 something as part of the win streak tourney? We start back from scratch?

[Donelladan]

hi In please !

[MoB Deadly]

in please

[benga]

in pls

[Acnoth]

In, please.

[sempaispellcheck]

The scheduled start time for this event has passed, and we are underway!
A reminder to all involved that you will need to create all your own games, since the bots cannot accept invites.

no.
1. play your first 10 games on different maps and win and you'll have a winning streak of 10 and be a seventh of the way through Bot Was I Thinking.
2. play your first 10 games on 2 maps and win, you'll still have a streak of 10 but be only 2 out of 70 or so for the Bot Was I Thinking tourney.

I asked some questions in the announcement thread regarding the logging of statistics on BOT games that were never answered. Until I get an answer one way or another on those, I'm going to give this tournament a pass.

[paullo]

I am in... and I will probably need to be remembered when 26nd october comes. Any mass messages?
