A small glitch - July 2, 2009 - 11:34 PM
|
|
A minor glitch has been discovered which has to do with the score display frame on the side. If you attempt to view the scores of a previous season, the frame might wind up getting stuck displaying really old stats. For example, it might wind up showing round 8 from season 9, rather than round 5 from season 17 (as it should be doing). This can be rather confusing and I'm not sure why that is happening.
For now, there's an easy solution. Just click the "round" link underneath the score table. That should set the frame's display back to the current round. You might need to refresh the page after clicking it. The glitch is entirely to do with the display on the side, so nothing serious (like scores) is actually being affected. |

A change of plans - July 2, 2009 - 4:41 AM
|
|
At the beginning of the season, we were planning on making this a longer one: something in the area of 10 or 11 weeks. This decision was based partially on a j2o poll which was conducted before the season. However, in order to do a longer season, there needs to be enough activity to support one. At the beginning, we didn't know if this season would be like JDC 16 (very active) or JDC 15 (less active). As it turns out, the trends for this season are more like 15.
The backup plan was, if this season turned out to be less active, we'd make it a shorter one instead of a longer one. Therefore, the decision has been made to make this season to end on the 11th of july. That will be the end of round 6.
Why is this being announced now? Well, generally speaking, most JDC seasons follow a pattern: round 1 is the most active, and then there are several rounds where activity is about the same, and then somewhere along the line (often at about this point) interest wanes, and activity drops. And so far, round 5 has had noticibly fewer duels than previous rounds. We believe that means it is time to start wrapping up the season, since otherwise it will kind of just fizzle out, and make for a boring end.
However, there is still a small possibility that the season will last longer than this. The season length is being based on the interest of the players, so if the number of duels starts to pick up again, we may decide to go a bit longer.
Note that six rounds is actually a fairly average length for a JDC season, and overall this season has been a good one, especially with regards to events. It's just that there have been somewhat fewer duels... probably because it's summertime.
Since the season has been shortened, you can expect a fairly high number of events from now until the end! A lot of officials had events they were planning on doing later on, and now they have to move them up earlier. One thing in particular to make note of is the traditional Officials vs. Competitors event, which ought to happen soon.
In other news, I finally uploaded the scores from sunday's event. Sorry for taking so long! |

One Day Tournament #2 - June 30, 2009 - 10:55 PM
|
|
Okay, we played 2v2 TLRS arena games this week. Turned out quite good, kinda. I liked it at least. Only complaint is maybe duels took too long and random partners may have hindered odds of winning. Few surprise wins again, and I'm probably gonna stick with duels again for next ODT! And probably an arena that's more suited to duels and stuff. Stay tuned!
1st Place: Vegito + FawFuL
2nd Place: Quickz + DarkSonic
3rd Place: Superjazz + Caglar
We did an after-round of 7v7 TLRS. That was kinda cool. Points up already. Tourney structure is viewable in rawscores. |

What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas - June 28, 2009 - 5:51 PM
|
|
| Just a note to everyone: you are not permitted to play 3on3 (and larger) games with banned people. So far we have been allowing these games, with giving the bannee 0 points, but that has now changed. Further games featuring banned people will no longer be considered valid and won't be added to JDC. |

Assault Event - June 27, 2009 - 11:04 PM
|
|
It was fun, and since some of the games were shorter we played ascargo twice. Three people won the event. Overall it went much more smoothly than regular assault events, due to a very good host.
There might be an encore tomorrow. It depends if anyone is willing to host it, and how many people turn up, and so on. I could be a backup I suppose. In any case, there will be SOMETHING at that time on Sunday, if not an assault event encore, than something else open to everyone (if not enough people show up). |

Round 5 - June 27, 2009 - 6:00 AM
|
|
Round 5 has started, about an hour early but it's not like it makes a huge difference! MatiVS won round 4 with 221 points, "spaceboy" came in 2nd with 203, and SuperJazz got a close 3rd place with 202. Also worth mentioning is Seth, who also scored 202 points, with the difference between him and SJ being less than 1 point (scores are rounded).
Again, the point value of the round has increased a bit. It's at the point now where it is worth twice as many points as round 1. Though, points per duel remains at 0.75 for now. It will increase to 1 eventually... but not yet.
There will be an assault event this weekend, and as usual it will have an encore as long as the number of players warrants one. Also, the event will most likely go more smoothly than the one on Friday. Ragnarok will probably be hosting the server, which means there probably won't be very much packet loss to worry about. |

Spontaneous Pestilence scores, and more events coming - June 25, 2009 - 10:54 PM
|
|
I added the scores to yesterday's Pestilence event. Darksonic won, and got 25 points. We did A LOT of different levels, since I thought that would be a bit more interesting than just doing several rounds in the same level. Overall the event was pretty good and judging by the fact that the server was full most of the way through with only a few people leaving, most people seemed to enjoy it.
The only real problem was somebody was caught cheating in the event. Since this person had no prior incidents, all that will be done for now is a warning and a point deduction. However, they may be barred from future events, if the host feels that is necessary. Generally we don't ban people except in rather serious cases or for repeat offenses, but bans do happen, and might in this case if there is any future suspicious activity.
With that out of the way, there are a lot of events planned for the next few days, starting with one tomorrow which seems to be very mysterious. There will also be an assault event on the weekend. |
