hmmm, it seems as though there is a lot of... confusion, in this thread.

Shy, you are right. Its a racing scheme, the top cumulative time should win. If the "faster" team loses because of an error in calculation then this is wrong and shouldn't happen, nobody can argue otherwise.

As for 1v1, its been measured by the second for as long as Ive been playing anyway, its what people are used to. Nobody is "moulding" the game to conform to the needs of "noobs", if anything, this proposition is breaking the mould from how it has always been.

End of the day Mab is right, people should be able to choose to measure by the 100th of a second if they like, ESPECIALLY in rare situations where the faster team end up losing if we only go by the second. Fortunately situations like these are rare, so to those of you saying "gtfo I cba to check replays every game", please don't say that because you won't have to in 95% of games.

HHC I am shocked by your posts. There is nothing wrong with wanting a more accurate measure of time in ttrr, ESPECIALLY when it could mean that you were actually cumulatively faster than the other team. There is nothing "lame" about this WHATSOEVER, it is NONSENSICAL to award the win to a team that were cumulatively slower than the "losing" team. This is the main point Mablack and Shy are making, and I dont see how this point can be disputed. To HHC and others calling this rule change "lame", please stfu. We all play this game for fun, changing the rules to make sure the REAL winning team is awarded the win MAKES PERFECT SENSE. It is not at all lame, and in no way whatsoever does it detract from the "fun" of the scheme.

It really irritates me when people say things like "you take this game too seriously". Hello? You play this game everyday, we all take this game seriously. You also made it seem like its a bad thing for wanting to be the best you can at the game and take competition seriously. Competition is fun, its great that people take the game seriously. Don't attribute "taking the game seriously" with an inability to enjoy the game. I take the game seriously... If I play a league game I take it seriously, I do everything within my power to win because ITS A COMPETITIVE GAME! If I lose... COOL! I still had a great time trying to win. Again, do NOT try and say that people who want to win are taking the game too seriously, this really bugs me and makes me facepalm myself and shake my head.

As for 1v1, we can see many people in this thread (including exceptional RR'ers) say that they enjoy draws, and there is nothing wrong with that. Its great when you have to play a game 2 or 3 times because you've both finished within the same second, its very exciting. Im sure most RRers (including Mablack) are still more than happy to measure by the second in 1v1, because having to win by at least 1 whole second adds a ton of fun and tension to the scheme. However if people wish to measure by the 100th, then they should state it in the lobby before the game starts, again, there is nothing wrong with this either. Im sure most RRers will still be happy to play by the second.

hmm after re-reading the OP properly I agree times should be checked in that scenario, damn! Im still for counting times by the second in 1v1 though.

I can help a little with some of game engine specifics:
The gravitational acceleration equals 600 pixels per second squared without LG and 300 pixels per second squared with LG.
There are 75 power levels, each one adds 16 pixels per second to the initial velocity.
A full power shot (doesn't matter if it's bazooka/grenade/petrol/mortar etc.) has an initial velocity of 1200 pixels per second.

lol, Im sure ill be able to hit any worm now I know this xD

franz pwns, gj

If its first come first serve, was I not the 20th player to register? How can you choose one player over another if its first come first serve?

vn work sock, u pwnd her!

I think people should be able to approve their own tourneys so they can be played whenever people want to play at any notice. Tourney mods also need more power, the power to remove/replace/add players being the main thing that immediately comes to mind. Maybe ill make a thread as ive been discussing it with others and they feel the same.
