Looking for someone to play 10-12 matches with (This approximates for an hour of play). Must be skilled or experienced in 1vs1. Preferred times: Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday 12:00PM and later GMT-7.
No lag preference, official matches only, 2 shot ducati-style.
Looking to have some fun and play with someone. I know 10-12 matches sounds tiring, but I always found it interesting when two of the same players go up against each other many times. The process I found is that while both players start off learning each others' playstyles and what to do to counter act them, then they come up with a new strategy that requires its own counter attack, and the process just rolls over on itself. I enjoy this kind of competitive play and would love to play against someone who enjoys a similar one.
Let me know if you're interested, on this topic, with a date in the provided range please. This must be arranged, not on the spot, as it's obviously an enduring task.
I encourage others to follow similar practices, not necessarily the 10-12 matches part, but arrangement of matches.

Re: 1vs1 Challenges
Hey Sig,
if you consider me skilled and experienced enough:
Challenge accepted.
I suggest we find a date/ time when we meet each other the next time, that is easier than fill this topic with proposals and counterproposals. I´m quite flexible.

Re: 1vs1 Challenges
Alright red-der. I'll come hunt you down. Be ready.

Payback time.......
Re: 1vs1 Challenges
We had our preliminary matches today, they were fun! The results:
red-der: 5 (4 if you only count classic style)
sigonasr2: 3 (My first 3 official victories against red-der I'll admit)
This is in preparation for Wednesday, we will meet at 1:15 PM GMT-7 (20:15 UTC) if anyone is interested in coming to watch.
I recorded our 1vs1's we did today if you care to see any of the gameplay and our playstyles: Part 1 - http://www.twitch.tv/sigonasr2/b/322550236, Part 2 - http://www.twitch.tv/sigonasr2/b/322550423. I'll probably stream the Wednesday ones as well.
We have changed our conditions, we plan to play 50 matches. Oh it will be a blast, I know I will enjoy it.
Also, newsflash, Zac and red-der are tied in ZELO at this writing (1499)

Re: 1vs1 Challenges
Did they play it? are there any recordings?
Wanted to watch but couldn´t make it.

Re: 1vs1 Challenges
Yep, all of them got recorded, the live recording can be found here from start to finish: http://www.twitch.tv/sigonasr2/b/322904228. We completed 23 matches. The score ended up being 21-2 with red-der being triumphant. Regardless of win or loss we both had much fun learned a lot about each other and 1vs1.
If you want actual individual 1vs1 recordings for the in game replay server, I'd have to dig out the numbers, but they'd all probably be consecutive.

Re: 1vs1 Challenges
It was indeed a lot of fun.
# we played 23 matches
# it took us 3 hours 10 min
# we had a short break of only 1 min (grabbing some refreshments)
# every bullet/ kill was fought tooth and nail
# the longest match was 11min20
# the shortest 3min48
Some findings:
Playing more than 3 hours straight, fully concentrated, can cause serious side effects:
# zen-like state (you and your tank become one)
# having lots of fun
# sudden laugh outbursts
# skill improvement
# feelings of time distortion (you see the bullets coming in slow motion --> Matrix-style)
# cognitive-motoric dysfunctions (your brain says: dodge, but your hand is just not able anymore)
So be prepared!!
