As we wrap up the first quarter of kdice competition under the current scoring rules, I want to give recognition to kdice players of superior skill, especially those who are more recent arrivals to the game. At the end of May I will make a listing of TAPL scorers in three catagories:
1. Top TAPL scorers among players who began playing kdice in May. 2. Top TAPL scorers among players who have been playing kdice since April. 3. Top TAPL scorers among players who have been playing kdice since the scoring change and reset of the Elo's in February. The TAPL is explained in the comment at my profile page. The TAPL and this competition have no official endorsement from Ryan. To qualify for the competition, you must have played at least 35 games. To enter the competition, make a post to this thread. I will reply with a computation of your current lifetime TAPL. At the end of the month I will work up the lifetime TAPL's for all the contests and award certificates. I don't have fancy graphics capabilities like Ryan has for the trophies, but I will issue a certificate that looks like this: 5684 ∫ 1st.∫∫∫ A 3-month TAPL in the 5000's is likely to have a good finish, a 2-month TAPL in the 2000's is a good score, and a 1-month TAPL in the 1000's means you have a good shot for the top spot. |

at 7:30 PM, Saturday May 26, 2007 EDT The one-month competition is not open to players with more than one month of play. To enter the one-month competition, create a new account with a name like TAPLisSTUPID or something like that and compete with that account.

at 7:32 PM, Saturday May 26, 2007 EDT why would it make any difference if i started a new account. i played 35 games all today with the account soxrock and there would be no difference if i started a new account...the results would be the same. stop trying to squirm out of the reality that in one day playing as bad as i could i managed to beat anybody's tapl scores and in doing so proved that tapl was stupid

Don't try to squirm out of the rules. If I give an exception to you, I have to give it to everyone else. The two-monthers and three-monthers have their own competitions to be in; I don't want them bullying their way into the one-month competition. I will give you honorable mention, though, as being the best candidate for the TAKBE. |

at 7:55 PM, Saturday May 26, 2007 EDT skrum the only reason i didnt make a new profile is because i have no email readily availible to use. I gained no advantage by having a 3 month profile as only percentages matter so i dont see why i cant enter the one month competition or why anyone else with a 2 or 3 month profile couldnt

I will mention the 8283 when I hand out the certificates so the winners will know that there is a dark side to the TAPL just as there is a dark side to the Force! May the TAPL be with you! |
