GSHI Tournament Results

[Lazy Bastard]

There was always going to be a tie-breaker (it was mentioned in the first post of http://gshi.org/vb/showthread.php?t=3099). How else would we determine the winner? Keep playing until someone wins all three? That would probably never happen.

It's true that there may not be a third player capability for NES netplay (to be honest, I haven't even checked yet), but we also haven't been using that capability in MAME. However, if there is a game similar in play to Galaxian for MAME (such as...Galaxian for MAME, heh), with two player competitive functionality, that will do fine, and allow us the ability to have a spectator (I'd check, but I'm still at work for another 30 minutes or so). The NES version of Galaxian allows two users to take turns until someone loses all three lives. Whoever dies with the highest score wins.

Having determined that she will likely beat everyone (heh), NiK has decided to gracefully bow out of the competition. As there are thus only two competitors, and Helder has two out of three wins, the first-place prize will go to Helder this year, with VisitntX holding second place, and NiK in third.

The Artwork Contest will have to be put to an administrative vote; the result will be posted in this thread and the artwork thread.

[VisitntX]

Yahoo, I'm second!!!! I'm the second greatest player on the competition!!!

[Lazy Bastard]

Heheh

[Helder]

[VisitntX]

[Astraea]

[Lazy Bastard]

Heh, I'm aware that I still owe helder and VisitntX their prizes, and will be sending them shortly, in case either of you was wondering

[Helder]

I was but Im in no rush.

[VisitntX]

No rush LB, do it when you can.

[Lazy Bastard]

Heh, I forgot to mention, Helder's gift certs have been sent, and the T-shirts will be made and sent shortly. I'll try to find a decent way of marketing a limited run of those same shirts, for a few bucks.

[Helder]
