7th Annual NLBFT - Alpha Division Preliminary Round - Page 6

Shinigami · 10-16-2003, 08:36 PM

Will I get my score results from my battle? I am very curious to see what the judges thought of me.

10-16-2003, 09:27 PM

Hey Richie! Awesome fight man. Good luck everyone!

10-16-2003, 09:55 PM

First off, thank you ALL for putting so much effort into these battles. It's a joy to read your posts. ^__^

I've been reading both divisions from the very first post. As each day came around, I'd print the updates and score each post individually and now have an overall score. I've found it a hell of a lot easier than trying to sit here and read them all at once

Now... to the scores. If my style is weird, you'll just have to live with it.

--------

Gamer Chris vs Bacon and Eggs

I believe Bacon and Eggs ran out of time and was disqualified. Even so, I'd like to give my comments.

Gamer Chris: I'd like to see a bit more description in your posts. You have a very clear idea of what your attacks are and I can see that you could easily be a good fighter. 6/10

Bacon and Eggs: In total, you have less that 20 posts. I hope you get a lot more experince before trying something so intensive again ^__^() Good luck with all future battles! 4.5/10

--------

Neo vs Alex the Arachnid Warrior

Neo: My dear girl, I know you have the traits of a genius, but the complexity of that last post of yours... quite frankly baffles me. I know you'll display your obvious talent extremely well next time. 6.5/10

Alex: A lot more detail in your posts would be extremely helpful! If you read other battler's post and with practice, you'll be able to fight just as well as them. 4.5/10

--------

Tak vs Shinigami

Tak: I caught your last post before it was removed. I have to admit, the stronger attack in it was very good. Don't be daunted in the face of a veteran fighter, you never know what you're capable of if you just describe everything really well [img]smile.gif[/img] 6/10

Shinigami: You use your surroundings to your advantage with a lot of detail. 8/10

--------

GORE-ILLA vs Dalton

It's too bad that Dalton didn't wish to participate after all.

GORE-ILLA: It's interesting to see you get straight into fighting. I look forward to seeing some excellent description in the next round. 6.5/10

--------

Lord Deimos vs M&M

Lord Deimos: The last attack which showed more strength is the type of thing I'd like to see from you. Keep working on your description! 6/10

M&M: The introduction to your character made a wonderful opening post. It's good to see how well thought-out your attacks and damage are. 8/10

--------

General David vs BASS.EXE

First off, this battle was hard to judge. I found you to be quite evenly matched!

General David: With more description you could use your character to your advantage. It's very good to see the use of surrounding areas to your gain. 6/10

BASS.EXE: It's definitely good that you use your character's entire body as a weapon. Remember to bite your opponent!

6.5/10

--------

Fenix vs Parrykarry

Fenix: Where have you been hiding?

You have a beautiful way of describing things. The detail to your own damage and attacks impresses me. 8.5/10

Parrykarry: Parr, you write very well, and I can see some of the influences. Well done bringing them into your battle. Just remember that your imagination can bring forth anything. 7/10

--------

Acradius vs Richie

I already held high expectaions of both of you, and neither of you have disappointed me. Another very close match.

Acradius: Your attacks are clear and worded brilliantly. I'm glad that you use emotions in your posts. 8.5/10

Richie: You gave a lovely hint of humour and anticipation in your first post. Remind me to read some of your other battles! 8/10

--------

I'm extremely pleased with the results so far. I hope to see all of you continue to battle and constantly improve! Although not everyone could win, I think everyone shows great promise in the future. I can't always explain why I give a higher scoring, sometimes it's simply from the emotions shown or the way someone writes their story.

Now... to finish the Omega division and post there oO

10-16-2003, 10:40 PM

*cannot wait for his results in the Omega Quadrant.*

R, ol' man, you are my new God for starting this tournament...

And on a side note, I had a blast reading the battles in this section. GOOD JOB EH! ^_^

And Alex...I must say...for someone who posts a litte description as you, I am quite impressed at the fact that you are a very good speller. You don't see that often...usually its "I hit u with shearp sord and u fall and blid becuz I slah u with sord". Nice work. ^^

10-16-2003, 11:42 PM

Results this quickly? Holy mackerel! Saria, you are the epitome of efficiency! May the judges from last tourney *glowers* learn well from you!

10-16-2003, 11:47 PM

Amazing job SD

Shinigami · 10-16-2003, 11:48 PM

Saria, I have a few questions:

Could you give me some more information on how I did? Heh. I'd like a little bit more feedback. =p

Also, are our scores based upon how well we did against our opponents? Because, well, I mean, I think Neo did a LOT better than Bass.EXE (no offense to you, Bass). I mean...I just don't see that. Could you explain?

Thanks.

I've sent you a PM, Shini, with some extra comments. I judge by the way each post is written and compare it only to your opponent. I take into account character description, a little history, setting, emotions, the strength and detail of attacks and how each person acknowledges damage. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Awww jeez guys... I'm just having so much fun that I wanted to post the scores quickly ^__^()

Yeah, I probably lose. Oh well... I had been planning to get an awesome last post in, but then my damn internet went down... :\

10-17-2003, 10:23 AM

Calm down, there are two other judges...

imported_Parrakarry · 10-17-2003, 11:34 AM

Yeah, I know, but Fenix did really good [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Vinny · 10-17-2003, 11:49 AM

Yeah you did a good job SD, and I think you were really fair with your scores.

If it's not too much to ask, would it be possible to send me some feedback, like you gave to Shini? What I did wrong, what I did right and how I could improve it, you know. That was only my 2nd fight so I wanna improve quickly, cause if I make it to the next round I might be up against a giant.

Holy crap, Saria! Wow, results on the same day it ended. I guess you really did enjoy reading all those posts. ^_^

And Parrakarry, too bad you couldn't get your last post out. It was a great fight. Never had to operate so differently before. If it's possible though, could you PM it to me? I'm really curious to see how you would have responded.

imported_Parrakarry · 10-17-2003, 01:26 PM

Yeah, sure... it's not very good, but it's the best I can do. You'll have it in a couple minutes.

And Saria, I want more info too... Well okay, I just want to improve myself, and imposing on you isn't the nicest way to do it [img]tongue.gif[/img] But as you can see from my attacks I'm not the nicest person [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Metal Man · 10-17-2003, 03:50 PM

I'm still reading through it all, but I should have some ideas soon.

Metal Man · 10-17-2003, 04:43 PM

Sorry for the double post, but I needed the little window.

And now, for my ratings.

Chris vs. Bacon and Eggs

Even though this battle was probably ended short due to Bacon's lack of posting, I shall submite ratings.

Chris: 7/10
Pretty good, too bad there wasn't much posting.

Bacon and Eggs: 4/10
Maybe if you posted more, this battle could have continued.

Note that these ratings are on a limited amount of content.

Neo vs. Alex

Neo: 8.5
Absolutely amazing detail, only a little short of the small novels I see Shinigami post.
Alex: 6
Good posts, but short, kinda like I used to do. Would be better with more description.

Shinigami vs. Tak

Shinigami: 9.0
Almost perfect. Being able to use an environment someone else made to one's advantage is great. The endless description makes it almost a small storybook.

Tak: 6.5 (Based upon legal posts)
Unfortunately, while you have sme detail and interesting posts, I have only a limited amount of knowledge on what took place, especially due to the rule problems and all....

Gore vs. Dalton

Nothing really to judge. Gore wins out simply because he posted, and Dalton didn't even say anything in the topic...

MM vs Deimos

MM: 7.5
Nice, long, descriptive attacks. I applaud your unique storylike approach.
Deimos: 5.5
Decent attacks and all, but somewhat short, and a little short on grammar. Also a little unimaginative.

David vs. Bass

David: 7.0
A bit easier to read, and I feel that you had some interesting attacks that put you above Bass.

Bass: 6.5
Very very close, but not quite as descriptive. That picture helps, though. Very good battle, all in all.

Parrakarry vs. Fenix

Parrakarry: 7.5
Another close battle, but all of those attacks seemed to be countered by Fenix, even though you nearly destroyed him several times.

Fenix: 8.0
Absolutely amazing that you were able to counter those debilitating attacks. You had surprising ways to compensate, making it a fascinating battle.

The Talekeeper vs. Acradius

Richie: 8.5
I feel that the interesting descriptions and staying on top on the opponent helped you win this match.

Acradius: 8.0
Descriptive and imaginitive, but it seemed Richie held out and ended up coming out on top.

A very long and interesting battle... took so long to read..

d · 10-17-2003, 04:51 PM

Thanks SD and Metal Man.Looks like me and Bass are tied at the moment.I also know I could of used some more description(I had planned to) but my writing was kinda sucked down a little bit because of all these essay's in English.I'm still amazed at SD's rapid reply on the ratings.

10-17-2003, 04:57 PM

Now all we need is Magi Warrior.

10-17-2003, 05:05 PM

*kicks computer*

Wow. Might I say that this is the fastest I've ever seen the judges judge our battles in this tourney...

... I hope that didnt jinx it so Magi will never show up. >_<

Excellent battle, Arcadius. [img]smile.gif[/img] Wish it coulda been longer but my computer... *kicks it again* died on meh.

Oh yeah, and good job to everyone who battled. XD
