Title: Game #114037, Reported by Guaton
Post by: TheKomodo on June 13, 2012, 11:43 PM
Ok so, I finished 2 worms, he touched the side of the finish, but fell right into water, with 1 worm, none of his other worms finished.

Gj, Guaton, by the TuS rules, you played better and won, Gj, I really mean it.

I am curious, could someone explain to me though, why this is accepted as a win? I just don't understand how after 3 turns each, I have 2 worms on the finish, he has none, and he's the winner...

I actually thought for a minute that it didn't count :(

Lol Komo, really when was the last time you played roperace? xDDD it sounds like it could be maybe in 2003 or 2004. Just touching finish is normal now

I would say that Guaton fairly won the match and I don't think it should have bothered you at all.

Imagine that the finish was not a plop but a normal platform,  it would have been classed as a normal win.  So the fact the worm went into the water really means nothing.  He beat you JUST by a second with 1 worm and you had another worm that got 63 which means nothing.

I don't see what the big deal is really or why it "annoyed" you.  Getting beat by 1 second gives your opponent a real buzz of excitement and accomplishment.  Those moments are why we all play the game and when they happen to you then you experience the same delight.

Don't get annoyed if you get narrowly beaten, just think of how it feels for your opponent and enjoy it that way.

Cueshark, I said great job, I meant it lol, he done well, I've already accept it, I don't see the problem.

I am asking WHY it is allowed, WHY, I already know it is allowed, I am asking WHY, it's stupid.

If a rockclimber fell to his death, only touching the top, not climbing above it, it is not success.

If a racer dropped dead with a heart attack right at the finish line, I really don't think it would count, and what would be the point anyway?

If this was real war, it's obvious which team would be the winner - mine.

I accept he won, I am just REALLY confused why people allow such stupidity on this game at times lol.

The finish to a rope race map is at the word finish.  I don't see the significance of the worm touching the top or the side of the finish.

Many maps don't have plop ends, in this case Guaton would have touched the finish and lived.

You are still taking issue with him plopping at the end aren't you?  If he had just plopped then fine but he hit the word finish.  I think it just looked a bit odd to you and because it was a plop end map you are taking issue with the rules with this kind of end.

Although your examples are amusing (like normal) I don't see how they are relevant.

When a 100m sprinter wins a race he has to get any part of his body to that finish line, same in horse racing and motor racing.  The runner could hit the finish line and fall flat on his face and have a heart attack and then get bum raped by sexually deprived sailors....he would still have won the race.

Nice comparison Komo, lol xD I understand your point of view and what you mean, but RR is not about survival :D

But it didn't.

So hitting the side of the finish would have been acceptable if it wasn't a plop finish?

Exactly.
