Arm Wrestling World Championship

The full tournament had to be canceled due to either lack of interest OR people being terrified of Mark Jones, take your pick. But we did a few 1v1s just for fun, and those might give you an idea of how things would have gone if a full tourney had taken place.

* Jones defeated Matis

* Jimbo defeated QB

* Jones defeated Illu

* Jimbo defeated Jones

Mark was very impressed by Jim's strength- he says he has arm wrestled dozens and dozens of big guys, and only a few have ever been able to pin him, so Jimbo really took him by surprise.

I watched Jimbo vs Trent.
Great stuff, I was amazed by your skills! I really enjoyed watching this match. I like Jimbo's playing style, his matches are great to watch.

Then I got bored by the other semi and didn't watch the final, not because of the players but because it seems you guys always play with the same weapons.
That's a bit disappointing for a GE world championship! More like Pistols world championship! Not even 5% of what GE offers!
I'm sure you guys know there are other weapons in GE. (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Ftongue.gif&hash=7cfc888ebd66cf455a55fd5e124ee8267da91148)
How did you decide the settings? Did you guys all agree to always play with pistols? I would have loved to watch matches with other weapons but eh, still an amazing contest.

Yeah I was disappointed in GE, but I was so sick of watching guys play like pussies that I went kamikaze style pretty much every time and it paid off less than I thought it would. Illu vs Jimbo was a great match and I salute Patrik/Trent/Illu for finishing higher!

Post by: Ngamer on August 20, 2008, 12:24:00 pm

Seems to be some confusion around the Jim/Nate/Eddie placement, so I'll explain how the math works in those cases.

*big spoilers if you haven't watched the vids yet, of course*

Nate is ranked so highly because he went head to head with Patrik and had a very strong showing- thanks to his 8 kills in game 1, Nate only allowed Patrik 71.4% of the points in their match. (Therefore, he gets a 28.6% value.) Jim is ranked low because Trent handled him so easily; he only managed 6 kills in the first game and 5 in the second, so Hovis scored 64.5% of the points.

Then in the Championship, even though Trent did pretty well, Pat still scored a solid 58.8% of the points, which pushes Trent down a little bit and Jim way down. Eddie did very well in going almost kill for kill with Jim, but because Jim's value ended up being low, Lovins was held back in the standings as well.

Basically the thing to remember about x-stats is that you can only be as strong as the person you lost to. So if you lose to a really good person (like Patrik, or Illu because he did so great against Patrik) you've got an excellent chance to finish strong in the rankings. Of course the flip side of that is when the top player is SO much better than you that you can barely score on them (see: Jimbo/Wonn, Trent/wheat, Woll/QB, Illu/SA).

Just watched all the multiplayer videos. That Patrik won didn't surprise me at all. Congrats dude! (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Fsmile.gif&hash=1adea417e08e9042f9ce1a5426616bf29f2ca20e) Trent had some bad luck killing himself on Caverns and getting some bad spawning points, but Patrik won with 2-0 in the final so he came out as a pretty clear winner imo.

I think I liked the bronze medal match the most between Illu and Jimbo, both players had some really nice kills there and I think Illu had some awesome "through glas" kills. I just loved how Ngamer and you guys kept saying "OOOOOOOOHH!!!!!" after every kill.

Nice putting videos up! (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Fsmile.gif&hash=1adea417e08e9042f9ce1a5426616bf29f2ca20e)

MOOOOOOOO not ooohhhhh...the best kill I thought was illu through the glass magnum on jimbo...it was just different and random so thats what made it the best imho. I agree there should be some sort of different multiplayer besides always pistols...maybe i'd have a better chance as well as others....(remote mines rocket launchers or something) Of course depending on how its all set up the tournament would take longer.
Either way it was fun to watch...

And now for the silliest moment of the year... the unveiling of the Virginia Overall Rankings! These take into account performances in all of the big three tournaments; GE/MK64/ping pong. Since there were 23 players this year, if you finished first in a tourney, that's worth 23 pts towards your overall. 2nd place is worth 22 pts, and so on down to last, which earns you only 1.

Last year I did these ranks off pure X-Stats, but this time I'm using the more "fair" system of pts being based on how far you advanced into the brackets, with the stats just doing tiebreakers. So for instance Trent is 4th in the stats and Jim is 8th, but for these rankings it will go 1. Patrik 2. Trent 3. Illu 4. Jimbo. With that in mind, here we go!

The 2008 Virginia Overall Rankings

1	Lovins	20	19	16	55
2	Trent	17	14	22	53

I think both me and Jimbo felt that we needed to spice up the bronze game a bit for it to be interesting to watch with the final coming up just after it (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Fsmile.gif&hash=1adea417e08e9042f9ce1a5426616bf29f2ca20e)

Why these kinds of tournaments are with pistols ltk is mainly to avoid having to hunt for body armor and randomness stuff like spawning into an explosion and all kinds of mess, but if we'd do with other weapons and settings then I'm up for the challenge.

We did play some weird stuff like... hmm I remember some game with Trent, Woll or so and rocket launchers (proximity mines(https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Ftongue.gif&hash=7cfc888ebd66cf455a55fd5e124ee8267da91148)) but nothing too serious.

oh yeah I forgot mt ping pong match against Wonn was so close lol (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Ftongue.gif&hash=7cfc888ebd66cf455a55fd5e124ee8267da91148).

I had never played it so no hope of going a long way and I would have lost to QB anyway about the same as Wonn did (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Ftongue.gif&hash=7cfc888ebd66cf455a55fd5e124ee8267da91148). Might practice a bit maybe but a ping pong table is so small.

I don't see what you guys are all having against Pistols (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Ftongue.gif&hash=7cfc888ebd66cf455a55fd5e124ee8267da91148). I don't think mines or rocket would make for more interesting matches since someone weeker could ust lock up in a room with few issues and a rocket/mines and wait.

I guess maybe the loser could pick either pistol or automatics maybe. But I liked the pistols myself the cougar, enabled for some nice shooting through that player had to keep in mind. Maybe slapper only (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Fwink.gif&hash=4979046fbfc7ed25a03644bf608e503c4aa73f0f) it could have been funny but not for the tournament I guess. Automatic might be okay even if they require less precision since you have 50 bullets to hit the other so you can hold Z and shoot about where the other is.

But it could probably be tested to see how it goes.

Also who got the ping pong final or the wakeboarding stunts of Andrew and all on video?

I enjoy these GE X-Stats! That match I played with Illu is seriously among my best ever. I just wish it were recorded, as well as my practice matches with Jimbo..

Elite Football Game video is up!

http://vameet.speedrunwiki.com/2008/videos/EliteFootball.mpg (http://vameet.speedrunwiki.com/2008/videos/EliteFootball.mpg)

This is 6 minutes of footage as recorded by Trent, who had Jim's digital camera. Of course it's not super-high quality, so I'll recap the action as you watch. First off, remember that the teams were

Team QB
QB
Jones
Sterling
Nate
wheat
Substitute - Matis

Team Jimbo
Jimbo
Ngamer
JT
Bill
drag
Substitute - Clark

0:00 - the camera starts up with the second drive of the game. in the first, starting QB Ngamer had lead Team Jim to an opening score
0:10 - Nate takes the ball for Team QB and QB himself (striped shirt) immediately burns drag (also striped shirt) for a long TD. now we know where Xavier Chovlovski gets it!

0:39 - JT takes the ball for Team Jim and misses Bill in the endzone.
1:10 - JT hits Bill over the middle, who blows by Nate before Jones makes a TD-saving tackle
1:40 - Bill immediately creates seperation on Nate again and JT hits him for the easy score. listen to Nate's explanation afterwards, and Jones' reply!

2:15 - Jones throws a short pass to Sterling, who laterals back to Mark... but loses yards for doing so!
2:30 - Mark makes a strong throw to QB, who for some reason was still being covered by drag. he rolls into the endzone with ease

3:10 - Jim takes the ball and tosses a hail mary, the longest pass of the day, to a streaking JT deep in the endzone. There was no "back" to the end zone, so JT caught the touchdown all the way between the two trees back there!

3:45 - in a clear violation of league rules, Jones takes the ball again. he throws a perfect strike to wheat in the endzone, but it bounces off wheat's hands for a drop!
4:35 - Mark makes another great pass, this time over the middle to Sterling, who bobbles the ball three times before finally dropping it
5:05 - Jones makes a third good throw, but puts it a little behind QB who can't hold on to the ball.
5:35 - on 4th down Jones throws a hail mary to the tallest player, but he forces wheat too far into the tree in back and no one is able to make the play.

So Team Jim exits the video with a 1 touchdown lead, which they soon extended to 2 before running out of gas down the stretch and allowing the comeback win.

You must be referring to the one that went just off my fingertips--I'm way too slow. (damn at tough crowd at calling drops) The one I ran into the tree I probably should've caught but the tree didn't lose on that collision. I've always been one of the slowest people and I hate it but there isn't much my awkwardly built self can do to even get to below average speed.

Since when did you "own" me? I think we played pretty equal even tho you were talking alot to distract me and I would just do kamikaze moves all the time. I've grown much in multiplayer since then and it's so much diffrent playing infront of other elites and stuff. If you go next year I'm looking forward to take you down (https://forums.the-elite.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ezboard.com%2Fintl%2Faenglish%2Fimages%2Femoticons%2Fhappy.gif&hash=7b9cd982f9a41f9aefcd7ea74682d5f1e4caf4c6) also, how come everyone have started to spell my name wierd?

yup, there always is.

Where do you fall into what you've observed?

Also, I talked to Sterling, his computer is down, and he needs someone to upload his videos from this year, who can he send them to (in their dvd's), who can rip them and upload them?
