    Current plan is the same it's always been. Rock, Paper, Scissors to decide console.

    A coin toss would be better, no? It's unbiased and doesn't depend on the players actions. Or play one match on ps3, one match on xbox and then coin toss for the (possible) final match.

    The two consoles was discarded as just being a meh solution. It was actually my idea as well.

    RPS seems the best solution as it's all mind games. So the real match will be the RPS beforehand.

    Meta-game wise Rock is in a strong position but a well played Paper could generate mad hype.

    For the book signing.

    Make custom art work for your stick and get him to sign your TE.

    Tony, you just saved me €15.40! Many thanks!! Going up tomorrow, but sadly not to Inferno! Good luck to everyone, but the best of luck to the Limerick contingent! Get Hype?

    Good stuff! I'll be going up on the 735 train but am pretty sure I won't be going to inferno. I'll have my stick in case I can't get home on time but the christening is the priority I'm afraid :)

    Coin toss strikes me as a better way to decide console too


  • Registered Users Posts: 955 ✭✭✭GorySnake


    Too much strategy and pro tricks behind Rock Scissors Paper.

    I can play stick but am far more proficient on pad (xbox) so to be any sort of competition to anyone I'd need pad. Does anyone know if the majority prefer playing xbox or playstation? or even if there'd be a spare playstation pad around?

    The majority play on Xbox but we generally have a mix of both.

    When I'm doing the tournament I always try to accommodate pad players as much as possible. There should be a pad or two for both consoles but realistically it's best if you bring one for yourself. If worst comes to worst we can rent one from XGC.

    Good luck laddies.

    Cheers man, I'll be bringing a stick and pad as usual but if there's no ps3 pads going I can rent one then. It's a TE so if I'll be on pad there will be one there for anyone who needs it (xbox, not dual)

    Turns out I've gotta be somewhere this afternoon at home so no tourney for me. I'm sickened!!!! :(:( Enjoy lads.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,041 ✭✭✭pdbhp


    Good Lord this hangover is gonna be the end of me. Not a good idea to drink that much before a tourney, struggling to GET HYPE?
    Gonna have to eat several fries to survive!
    just threw up the fry

    Don't worry, as long as you get your gameboy practice in you'll be all set ;)

    Which of one of you fools messed with my clock so that I would miss my train :(

    I know this is sad, but the theory behind point 4 is wrong. If your opponent throws 2 rocks, throw scissors. Fairly self-explanatory, but fail on their behalf.

    Nice tourney, defo have to come back, but the heat in that place was insane


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    www.qik.com/gotglint i ll be streaming the finals there is a bit. will post before it starts.


  • Registered Users Posts: 217 ✭✭Neeknak


    Had a great time at the tourney but had to leave early for the long drive home. Trust me to get drawn in a group with DooM and Chunkis. Pressure got to me in the play-off with Chunkis. Well, that and the fact he played better than I did :D

    Looking forward to the next one. Hopefully I'll fare a little better next time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10 Cymatics


    Had good craic today. I didn't get out of my group (beaten by Red 2-1 and Cobelcog 2-0), but it was a good laugh all the same playing casuals and watching the finals. I'll be back at the next one and hopefully do better :P

    Today was great fun

    I actually made it out of groups! But then followed my usual pattern of losing hence forth XD GGs to blag and Dark Onion, well played to you both

    Had fun with the BB guys, I feel my game is improving a lot, need to get in some more Tao matches with you Red, she is a nightmare for me atmo.
