Ryan, you ONLY have to do less if you plan on roping the exact same way you have before this script, this ADDS possibilities, it doesn't take them away, it makes it just the same, if not make it even harder to be the best... Think about it carefully please?


If no one understands this by now, well, they never will... I've said it the best it can be said really...

It was only a general "thought" anyway, not something I actually desperately want done, afaik, it has 0.01% of ever happening.

Edited because I sounded harsh.
Komo, you will know by reading the posts, regardless of my response that a script that does stuff for you removes skill.

It does appear that you are hanging onto an obtuse opinion and that you are debating with the wrong crowd,
especially when it involves RR.

Just drop it and move on

We are not saying that the standard of the roping goes down.
We are saying you have to do less -> it's easier -> less skill

AHK is like playing a driving game with assists
Xspeed is like playing a driving game with a faster car

Lol, funny, but you still need skill and good timing, obviously, dunno why u guys being so dumb but whatever lol.

Excuse me, dumb?

Why stop at two spacebars? We each have at least 8 usable fingers that could be employed to "fingerroll" on a spacebar of their own. Someone make a script that remaps all four arrow keys to space too! We won't even need carefully crafted roping maps anymore, just a ceiling to tap into and a taps per second counter. It'll be like the good old WWP days all over again!

That's the point I was making about skill being taken out of the game.
It is all well and good having the opportunity to raise the standard but the reality is we are in a competitive world playing a game we have played for years to showcase our skills.
Allowing "assists" would completely ruin it!

Yeah, xspeed allows you to play the game in slow motion. As you can imagine it makes it far easier for you to rope because you have far more time to achieve perfect timing for any rope moves.

The problem with AHK is that it takes remapping to a further level.
Whilst a remapper is a substitute for, say key lock, by simply swapping keys, ahk takes it to a new level by allowing you to not worry about releasing space to tap again which takes away the co-ordination of your fingers. Takes away from the skill of finger rolling.

It is a small step, but it is a step.

Just f@#!ing let everyone use the damn thing, then EVERYONE has an equal chance !!! Who gives a flying f@#! if some people think it's cheating, just make it legal, and everyone can do it, and plus, roping would look better, people would BE better, that's a good thing, not a bad thing.

It's like people holding back science(and hence the progress of mankind) because of religious beliefs, it's f@#!ing retarded...

That's fine but opens up a can of worms (aha!) as to what is allowed and not allowed going forward.
We would again get to the point where we have a nasty xspeed scenario where people test the limits of what we consider legit.
Also, the way in which people are "better" is bad because the tool assists and takes away the purity/skill of the player.

The formula did a good job promoting speed, having that 4th worm led to some fast runs.
At the same time, consistently performing was more important, you could lose by +1 each round but still be in the game if opponent has a bad round.

Look forward to future tournaments.

Yep, gg Dulek, well done
Was annoyed at myself in the 3rd game but you played well every game and thoroughly deserved to win, very good RR'ing.

Also thanks HHC for hosting the cup. I think everyone will agree it's a very good format for rr and there should continue to be more cups like it

Yep, 7pm GMT :-)

Yep, HMV are the latest to suffer, my local one has big sales but is closing in a couple of weeks no doubt.
You mention electrical, Jessops (camera shop) has also gone down.

I, too, may look to get some form of microphone to help with commentary if needed.

This whole streaming thing is really good, *shameless advertising* Dulek and I may be playing our RR Cup final at 7pm GMT Sunday.

TTRR 

I could help with some future commentary in the RR
Would be best to have someone with "news reader" accent and witty personality though

Also would be cool to make reporting possible only after system understand you are paired with your opponent
So in fact you can't avoid at all

Yep

For singles this could be made the only way to find a TUS.
Would have a more diverse set of games played then.
Scheme picks could be made later.

It would be funny if you declare scheme as you enter the matchmaker - you could end up with best players of a scheme playing eachother! I understand that this creates luck element though.

Tr13 is noobs play :-P
