Haven't lost yet. Just finished Germany. Getting really bored, but see that there are details missing here. Also know that things have been changed without notice.

Including the start date! :evil:

So glad I played whamBot on all 72 maps without any losses, before the TO decided to do that! :roll:
The nature of Image was irrepressible!

This is all I see listed in the way of prizes so, if you've already lost a game in the Bot was I thinking Level 1, there's no need to continue? No runner up prizes or anything, right?


Pretty much. Except for the bot gameplay achievement medal.

Yeah, I thought I would be well on my way to that by the time this tournament was over, but I thought it was starting on the 26th and was super busy the first half of this month. I didn't even check my email until this morning so I only created my first game today. Got 9 victories and 1 loss before betiko swept 'em all. :) Oh well, on to the SassboT games, I guess.

I'm moving much more slowly. I'm at 19 straight with Wham Bot and through the C's. (I screwed a game set-up and played Classic twice.)

Well, as long as you haven't lost any, you're still in it!

I know, these guys played incredibly quickly. I mean, if you've got to work and do other stuff, there's only so much time you can devote to this in a day.

let me know if i need to continue, but i must have won over 100 games straight vs him if i count my streak before the tourney right now. I can say he sucks.


Congrats. Does that mean its over or can someone still tie? Also when does this end?


It s over for those who have lost 1 game i guess they can move to sassbot. Of course anyone who is still on his original win streak can tie, this wasn t a speed contest. I will move to sassbot today too, and will get back to whambot if there is another person with 100% victories with wham on all 71 maps.

So who s left on whambot?

Level 2

From the tournament start time:

    • 64 straight wins against SassboT from the start.

    • One defeat on way to beating SassboT on all maps (72 maps in 73 games I believe - double-and-triple-defeats on same map not counted as per rules from TO).

Multiple defeats wouldn't count if you've already defeated them on that map during this tournament, otherwise I think they do.

You can duplicate maps for Unconquered, though

Yeah, you can play any maps you want for that one, but your first loss on any map, even a duplicated one, and your streak is over.

that is correct. all defeats on a map leading up to your first victory count. all games on that map, (win or lose) after that 1st victory do not.

my reasoning for that is i do not create the games. for all other tournaments i can say here are your invites for my tournament's games, what games you play for fun is your business. here i needed a way to let you play the tournament without it interferring in your ability to play your favourite map for fun or to get the medal. ;)

from what I understand, they do. what doesn't count is if you do 2 times classic for example on your 72 maps race and you lose the second classic game for the bot was i thinking; it breaks your unconquered steak but not your bot was I thinking streak. if you start and lose twice on classic on your 2 first games and you win all other games; you have 0 on unconquered and 74/72 on bot was i thinking.

by the way, you scared me, thought there were 71 maps at first and that I had forgotten one, but I did do all 72 (I added and extra 3 wins so my streak is 75 right now)

greenoaks, how does it work for the tiebreaker?

I m out for sassbot by the way! Got ass kicked in archipelago after a 12-85 comeback on american civil war (that idiot left her 50 stack in the middle of her troops and never moved it, rolf!) She is far better than whambot now that i ve understood s whambot s way of playing, i didn t see any difference at first.
Well, i might get back to sassbot for bot was i thinking, but i doubt losing a game after 6 maps can give me a remote chance...

Go whambot!! Lol

Eliminated from what?

Only winning a 1,000,000,000 games in a row.

Just finished Whamming all the Level 1 maps (defeats were on maps that I hd already won on (after tournament start)).

So, as far I can see I have 73 for Level 2 maps and 72 for Level 1 .

I believe he is talking about the winning streak (as you only have one chance)

Honourable mention to Gilligan for having a 0 game streak, losing his first game to the Australians. Game 13464798

You only get 1 chance for your win streak and you ve lost a game vs whambot since the tournament started + didn t finish all maps with 0 loss, therefore yes, you are out of the potential winner list of both whambot tourneys.

No

I lost a game on a map I had already won on so that doesnt count for the map-thingy,. The map thingy and win streak are seperate, unless you are the TO and changed the rules?

Any additional games played on a map you've already defeated whamBot or SassBot on will not be included in your final score


Nah nah na nah nah

betiko won all maps without losing a game...so unless you do the same, you can't beat it. Since you already lost a game, you're out of whambot.

This was not in the rules before, so you can understand the confusion.
