Sunny Malico - Where I Organize Giveaways. (Shogun 2 DONE) [On Vacation]

Status updates are unwieldy for giving out information for what I'm trying to do. Putting this in the Playground since its sort of like a forums game. This is all clean fun.

 

So yeah, for those who don't know. I currently have a copy of Shogun 2 to give away. Sure I, a poor college dude, could sell the copy but that's no fun. So I'm giving it away via AI duke outs. As in I run a game of whatever, folks choose their character and then folks hope their chosen character win.

 

Only games I currently remember that fully allows that and are pretty fun to watch (Yes, I'll stream it) are Bomberman (SB 5 for me) games and the Super Smash Bros series (Melee in my case). I manage to get Melee to run on my computer via emulator so that is in the library of possible games I could use. Give me some suggestion of games if you like for future stuff I do.

 

Anyways, current game on the line is Shogun 2. Steam version via a coupon code. I don't have any 2nd or 3rd place prizes planned for this one.

 

I currently officially have the following people lined up to try to get it: Sporkwaffles, Connorrr*, RockyRan and FLD

*Birthday wasn't too long ago. He'll have some advantage like 2+ AIs.

 

Possible people I think are Johnny1 and Cyber Rat2. I see Squish and JC (Forgot who this is... sorry) on Steam but I don't think either is around here anymore so eh. (I'm trying to keep it to PXOD folks since you folks, even with your problems here and there, are pretty cool folks.)

1 From reading a forum post but I SEEM to recall Johnny not using or liking Steam.

2 From Steam wants

 

So if I ran it with just the official folks, I can go on with it currently but if anymore folks wants in, then I'll need more folks unless I play around with the number of AI each person gets...

Ideally, if I ran with a 4 AI games. I would like to have three or four 3-4 people in a matches to end with a 3-4 people final match for the prize. Hard thing right now is that head count for some games are low so... yeah.

 

I need to sleep but that is more or less the bulk of it. I was planning on doing this today (Friday 26th) but I don't think anyone will mind if its delayed a bit to work out some kinks. If any of you have some insight on how to make the matches even out, then feel free to voice them.

Saturnine Tenshi is now in too.

I'd like to sign up...I don't actually know any Bomberman characters though. :/

 

Same here. I'm not sure what that says about me...

 

Either way, sounds fun. Working all day today (PST US, not sure how that compares for everyone else), but I'm definitely interested in watching the stream if I'm around.

Wow. Just a short night sleep (God I'm tired) and like five more people are in. Okay, lets see...

 

Sporkwaffles, Connorrr*, RockyRan, FLD, Saturnine Tenshi, Cyber Rat, DukeofPwn, Snibbs, Phallus. (Nine people, with Dean would be 10)

 

Looks like we can do a perfect 1v1v1 all the way through. Connorrrr advantage/birthday perk, with my rushed mind, Connorrrr no matter what will be in the finals. However, if he loses in the preliminary match he will not be able to get the DLCs. If he wins both rounds, he will get them both. So yeah, extra life, a pretty damn good perk. Let me know if there's any problem with this plan.

 

It will be a perfect 3 person FFA in the preliminaries and the final if Connorrrr wins in the preliminaries. OR. It will be a 3 person FFA preliminaries and a 4 person FFA in the final if Connorrrr loses in the preliminaries.

 

I decided to do this in Super Smash Bros Melee (Everyone should know the characters...). Choose your characters/colors and then I think we'll do this tomorrow or later today. For those who can't watch, I could always save the recording and upload it.

Yeah, there's room.

 

With you and Dean in the mix. That will be 11 people. Connorrr* will count as another person then to give us 12 slots.

 

Now... Preliminaries will be four 1v1v1 rounds. Finals will be one 1v1v1v1.

I'm going to close registration at midnight PST. So... 0700 GMT I think. So new folks, you stumble on this opportunity. You will have your chance to take it!

 

*I will send you a PM asap.

I buy an obscene amount of games on steam during their deep discount sales. Lovin' it.

 

However not too interested in this giveaway. My PC would probably choke and die on trying to render this game. It's a bit really fucking crap. =)

Okay, I misremembered. Maybe it was someone long gone from here.

Connorrr has a CHAMPION. So yeah, its fine. I suppose. I'll make any final changes after midnight. Keeping on changing things is making my head hurt.

 

Also dean, you're in for life.

Muhahahah. It works!!! Could maybe do with a slight bit of tweaking but all in all it works (with a bigger video too and chat too)

 

Feel free to use either. This is mainly an experiment for later things.

 

(Also I guess I don't need to reply to the PM now)

I'm just screwing around with stuff, like figuring out how to speed up rounds if I have too.

 

We can get started whenever the rest of the folks get back to me with their characters. Though, not sure of starting on the weekend with the weekend being pretty inactive. Though, a Sunday night showdown would be sweet. :P
