So I saw this video on youtube where some guy plays 1v5 comp on normal, basically he just plays 5 comps on normal and sees what time he can win in. In his video his time was 17:55. I thought it was a pretty interesting idea so I gave it a shot. After a couple of tries I got a time of 13:14. I did some dumb stuff and wasted some time by dying : ( so my time can obviously be improved.
Anyways I think it would be fun to have a little contest in the forums see how low the time can get, or some other variation (etc 1v1 comp 1v2 comp etc... get the most godlikes in 20 min etc...). Not only does this give us a chance to show off our skills ^^, but it can also show some newer players or guys who want to get better some techniques that could improve their game.
Please feel free to critique, advise, or any share any other input you might have.
I had 2 btanks 8.67f, seemed i used the wrong one (it should be just the filename as i downloaded all my f versions from bnet hosts). I guess it should be enough to copy & rename the map, but maybe i've found some strange versions in bnet so i'll upload it here (i doubt it as I only play on the clanbots normally).
btw, I can't open xlpodingtinks replay^^
€: I just tested it. My Btanks867f~1 is the same as xplodingtinks Btanks867f. After renaming my ~1 map to 'Btanks867f' i could play xplodingtinks replay. My other Btanks867f map must be somehow different. Renaming your map to 'Btanks867f~1' should be enough to make my replays work.
@prog nice replay, what a great time : ) , i didn't even think to use tech mech to purchase items for me, that's a real time saver. Hopefully more members will try, if nothing else then to show their approach.
I just played 8.67f.
I got 7:55 thereabouts. I'll post when someone beats 8:33. haha

There's the issue, my folder is called just "download" without plural s - i wonder if you are using mac oshock:

Improve your tries with this: use random to have plus 450 gold at start. Chance = 1 - (5/6)^n [n = number of games in a row] to get your favorite tank.

The chance is constant and wont change with number of games - every game is independent from another.

Did you maybe not recognize that I wrote games in a row?
Because if you want to use the random function, you have to start games way more often until you can really begin to start a good try. And then the probability sinks every game to have bad luck by chosing random.

So, if you toss a coin a few hundred times and always toss tails the probability to heads will be biased?
