    nice try dust_kid it was a close match

    imo some of the judges grading is questionable

    Yeah..really..for a 6 month under tournament its pretty harsh.

    Huroni, next time I propose we simply use the judging system as described on the wiki. I think it is a far superior method and we have half as many battles to judge this time around. Also by doing this, spinners can refer to the wiki to check why they got the score they did.

    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 21:07:02

    Wow! I got more points than I thought I would... That's a shock.
    Although Ste won it easily tongue.gif
    GL to all the spinners in the next round smile.gif

  9. Huroni
    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 21:10:00

    Sure...but the judges will have to send the totals of their votes...instead of the symbols. With their comments...makes it much easier..for everyone. Thanks pholord.

    I lose not suprisingly. all my friends thought Nightsoras was btr anyway XD

    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 21:31:09

    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 21:32:42

    sorry.. my judging skills are just a bit.. weird i guess XP
    but other than that i was pretty surprised with some surprising combos i've seen smile.gif
    i was like probably like that skill level after 1 year lol XD

  14. Ryuukohaden
    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 22:53:53

    Oh well. Good job, Nightsora. It was a learning experience.

  15. AwonW
    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 23:03:14

    Whoa I moved on! I'm pretty surprised about that, but anyway thanks for the battle m3x_spinner maybe we'll battle again sometime smile.gif

  16. NiGHTSora
    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 23:10:32

    Nice job, Fang, it was a close match. smile.gif

    Thanks, Ryuuk. I really wanted to go against you, but nice job anyways.

    And good luck to you, Novastrike. From the points right now, it looks to be a tough match. wink.gif

    And I used a digital camera. ohmy.gif That's the reason why it was shaky, but had quality. I'm nowhere near california, Sathon. xD

  17. m3x_spinner
    Date: Sun, Feb 24 2008 23:16:49

    Thanks Awon. smile.gif
    Good luck in the next round.

    Agh, I meant to write "good job Novastrike." But you both did well.

    Eriror, thanks for the tips. I see what both you and I did there.

    And good luck, Novastrike. You better go far since you beat me, I want to know that I lost to a skilled opponent. XD

    great feedback from all judges and from Eriror.

    I expected all of the critcism i received considering i filmed it at about 11:58 PM on Feb. 14. I had a busy schedule, but this round hopefully i'll be more consistent and smooth.

    -----------------------------------------------------

    NovaStrike:
    Smoothness: 4.5/5
    Creativity: 3/5
    Camera Angle: 5/5
    Difficulty: 3/5

    I request a breakdown, at least for the tricks you are doing at :09. It almost looks like an Inverse Shadow Reverse 23-34. You have an awesome style, with an almost unstoppable smoothness. You really know what you are doing, and your tricks are controlled like those of a pro-penspinner. It's a video to enjoy looking at, even if the difficulty could use some work. Your use of Inverse Sonics is more common than usual, which is interesting, to say the least. Good job, I'd like to see more of you.

    --------------------------------------------------------


    Thx Eriror for the comments, will improve more with the reference to this and from other judges =D
    Actually at :09 I was doing a charge reverse 23 > pass rev 23-34.
    For difficulty, I had some plans of combo, but recently my working time does not allow me to practice. And the film was film the very last hour, so I was really panicked at that time while recording. My pens just keep dropping dry.gif
    So ended up with this simple and somehow an unplanned combo.

    Yea, definitely will come out something better for the next round! Won't disappoint you and some of my friends who helped me too(yea, you 2 should know who you are)! cool.gif

    And thx ryuu too for wishing me luck...

  28. TEK
    Date: Mon, Feb 25 2008 03:06:44

    lol sorry guys...i think y m3x_spinner lost is because he didn't have a camera...

    i had to flim his combo...its accually pretty good but we only had like lunch time to film...
    and its outside...all the sound and people, its not really a good spinning environment.
    and also everyone knows its 10 times worse if you have somone filming you cuz you have no control over the camera...more pressure, and you
    dont want to be a bother to the person who is helping you if you think that the combo you did wasn't what you wanted.

    and also i was filming...totally forgot about the angle...i was just like...ok lets get it over with.
    and it was durinking school and lunch so yeah lol...

    so sorry about that man...maybe save up for a camera.

    OH FAIL my judging is pretty....scattered when compared to the others

    and i agree that some of the grading was a little tight

    ....why release the judge's names? confusedsmilie.gif

    Oh! So I CAN submit my judging without my personal comments?

    Darn! I had the misconception that I had to justify my opinions, which was why I took so long to submit. smile.gif




    And also because some cameras were pretty sucky, and it was difficult to see clearly what you guys were doing. Some videos had to be replayed many, many times. sad.gif

    nolan already told him to send a vid a few posts up and isnt he a mod for the ECS forum?
