wut.

5 bots can't clinch from the same conference. Scarab's already clinched so if Mobile Failure, Dr. Pepperdine, and Fatality all clinch Mr. NVNLW is shit out of luck. :v: [/quote]Thats just for this weeks matches, since Poison fights Dr P and Fatality fights Mr NVN. Sorry if that wasnt clear.

the Mr NVN thing doesnt make sense because a win would only put it at 5-4 with the tiebreaker over fatality. Its probably left over from when I tried to draft the 3 weeks worth of scenarios. Mr NVN cant clinch this week

Excellent to see that Tornedron's made it at last&#33; Two more opponents left, and he could have up to Ten wins and counting. :cool:

I'm also very happy with Lethal Injection's performance as well- I think this has been my longest winning streak ever, and there's a very good likelihood he could go in as the Number One seed if I can keep it up. Just out of curiosity though, what does "Clinched Conference" mean?

Mind you, considering both Lethal Injection and Teresa are at 9 wins apiece, how will the Number One seed be decided if they both remain unbeaten?

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Ah, right. I was going by the system used for FRR Dead Zone and beyond, with there being one Division for each weight and all, so I was just wondering how it'd work.

Still, learn something new every day. :P

How the heck is Grave Robber of all things the first of my bots to go out? He was pwning ass earlier in this tourney. Glad to see S/M and No Patrol get wins they need to stay alive. Not sure how Slammer is still in there, but if I can still make it that'd be awesome.

Edit: Kody you're wrong I can't make the playoffs with Slammer. The best I can do is tie with CoTD and he has the tiebreaker. No Patrol needs to win out, as does S/M I think. Not quite sure what the deal is with him. No Patrol seems to be my last hope.

I think Slammer is involved in one of those crazy tie-breaker triangles, but it's still not a great position to be in. It's the same sort of thing that keeps Spike alive in the hunt.

Ouch. Badnik goes 4-0, yet is completely eliminated from the play-offs... that's gotta hurt. :(

Also:

VENGEANCE CONFERENCE
- If ABR wins next week, Recovered is eliminated no matter what.
- If ABR loses and both Recovered and Mercenary win, ABR is eliminated
- If Recovered wins and both ABR and Mercenary lose, it goes to a rumble for 3rd and 4th spots. So Mercenary can logically still be eliminated somehow.

ANNIHILATION CONFERENCE
- Similar story
- If Braveheart wins, Bad Wolf is eliminated no matter what.
- If Braveheart loses and both Green Dragon and Bad Wolf win, Braveheart is eliminated.
- If Bad Wolf wins and both Green Dragon and Braveheart lose, it goes to a rumble for 3rd and 4th spots. So Green Dragon can logically still be eliminated.

The board is set. The pieces are moving.

Interesting facts:

- First time Alteiriaa manages to get her entire team into the play-offs.
- First time GF93 has an undefeated robot throughout the season. (Lethal Injection)
- First time anybody has had more than one undefeated robot in one reason (KodeBreaker with Cutie Honey and Teresa)
- First time playzooki and Mr. AS have made the play-offs at all.
- First time Kraze misses the play-offs. :(
- Rob Collins and Lewis forfeited the entire season. :( Strangely enough, Lewis has the most Coin Toss wins of any single season. Spatula however still holds the most of all-time, at 8 CTs.
- NFX prevented two undefeated streaks. (Scarab in Week 6, The Green Hornet in Week 8)
- Reflector Shield and Teresa break 20 wins this tournament. Jack Frost (all things considered) breaks 30.
- Force Feedback needs three more wins to break 50 and have the most wins of any CFL robot, passing Zombie Killer. The Dark Side of Cupid needs one more win to break 30.
- all champions entered from the previous Ruination are defending their titles (Braveheart and Cutie Honey).
- The Defiance Conference is a piece of shit. :P

Feel free to add more. :D
