Title: ROUND2 battle: BEGINNER group OVER. Winner- stopkaiross
Post by: ondo on July 08, 2009, 09:15:37 PM

Beginners:

1st stopkaiross (1 tire)

2nd flatwax81 (Diversion DVD)

3rd Trickzta

ChefChris
bmx4lif3
LeonBMX
vignjo

! Beginner / intermediate group riders can repeat their links and tricks in:
+ semifinal
+ battle for 3rd
+ final runs

tnkgaby
Hia
AddisonM
annija
iluminati
flatlandrider13
Mike Dood
yodazoo976

Some basic rules:
1)I announce the first battle between 2 riders. From the moment there is a 4 day limit for those two riders to film and send the video links via PM to me! This rule is just for fairness, it's nothing if you post it in the battle thread. When both riders have sent me links- I post them in the first and the last post of their group!
2)The video can be edited or unedited, but must be maximum 45 seconds long. When the first battle series in each group are over(8 battles), then the next round adds +15 seconds. So the lenght in series are:
- First 8 battles= 45 sec
- Quarterfinals= 1 min
- Semifinals= 1 min 15 sec
- Finals= 1min 30 sec
This is the maximum of video lenght- you don't have to fill it up compulsory.
3)The run can consist of combos or just tricks, but if edited, they should be with ride ins and outs.
4)For each battle your run must be different.
5)It is forbidden to use old, before filmed videos.
New rules about the video lenght.
1)A subjective point, but I can "allow" the rider to finish his combo and do the ride out if it goes just <10 seconds more.
2)So then there is a question, which combo can be longer?
- The combo which is started not later than 15 seconds before the end of the run.
3) It is hard to tell, if the run is too long, because, it can really contain small tricks in the beggining and the long one combo is pressed in the end, to gain extra time. That will be not allowed too.
For example: If you got two combos: 26 and 32 seconds long. If you put them together in that order, then you get 58 sec and the combo did start 15 sec before the end(as mentioned before), but the main rule wich corrects it all: If your run is over time limit, it is allowed only then, IF THE LONGEST COMBO IS IN THE BEGINNING!
I'll check every video and I'll be critical about the use of extra time!
4)If the video contains title(something meaningful), the video can be longer as the title lenght
5) If the rider can pull a combo for all his given time in run, my judgement on the time allowed will be subjective and slightly positive on allowing using the extra time.
So what is the solution?
- First off, if some rules are disobeyed, I'll ask to correctly repost the video(if only the 4 day period is still active). If not, the rider can be disqualified.
- There is another solution. If you don't want to repost the video, you can still proceed with the battle, but if you surpass the time limit unpermitted, then you'll recieve voting "fines".
For the time amount you overspend, you'll pay with votes.
<5 sec -10% votes
<10 sec -20%
<15 sec -30%
<20 sec -40%
and so on.
6)After both rider videos are posted or the 4day period is over- voting starts. Others watch both videos and vote.
7)Voting is active for 2days. The rider who recieves the most votes in 2days- winner.
8)You can vote just for one rider in a battle just once. Keep in mind it's subjective, but try to be objective a bit. Stick to these principles:
a) bike control
b) originality
c) difficulty
9)As voting has finished, the winner of the battle is announced.
10) The winner countinues to fight in the finals(if they are). The looser fails. (There could be some additional battles later)
11)The next battle starts after the previous battle ends.
12)Remember to check out all of the gruops and vote, because one battle will happen in each class simultaneously
13)Some changes into limits or structure can occur.
14) The winners will recieve prizes (not known for the moment)
15) Questions please in the main signing up thread!
16) If you are busy, please let me know I can arrange your battles. The list of those who are busy is in the signing up thread!

And the winner of beginner group is...stopkaiross. Congrats! Votes 34 : 7.

1st stopkaiross (1 tire)

2nd flatwax81 (Diversion DVD)

3rd Trickzta

Trickzta gets the 3rd, because it's a uncontested win. Here is his video:

That would be cool so we can plan ahead...

Post by: ondo on July 08, 2009, 09:47:41 PM

Please, post the questions in the main thread which is already packed, he he.

I know it would create some order and stuff, but it would be hard when something changes. You know a lot of riders said that they are busy for a period and I can't expect when someone has unexpected plans.

I'll keep it random. Maybe when the finals are clos, then it will be clear who is battling who and when!

I just keep typing :D

I cant compete, I am stuck in bed with this crazy flu...  I dont think I will even see outdoors in the next 4 days.

Title: Re: ROUND2 battle: BEGINNER group (flatwax81 vs AddisonM)
Post by: ondo on July 10, 2009, 04:53:13 AM

yodazoo976 is put back for a while. AddisonM is in his place!

If an extra day is needed, give a message.

edit: 1 extra day given. So it's 4 days from now again.

Title: Re: ROUND2 battle: BEGINNER group (flatwax81 vs AddisonM)
Post by: ondo on July 11, 2009, 10:10:31 AM

A note:

If you want to battle in a particular period of time, then just send me a message and say in which battle you could enter. The maximum lenght of a battle is 6 days, often less.
Just send me a message and say in which battle you would like to be. For example after the count of days. That would fasten the things a lot and some would know when to check the forum.

If you want to participate in the next battle after the proceeding one, give me a message and you can film and send the link already!

Post by: AddisonM on July 14, 2009, 02:57:14 AM

I'm writing on behalf of addison, He had minor surgery on his ear today, and things aren't great right now, he fainted and opened some stitches and bled a ton, so he's not able to edit and put it on, he hopes people understand and will gladly forfeit to flatwax81. Good luck to all of you and hopefully He will be back on his bike and back voting and lurking global Flat soon!

Post by: elchapin210 on July 14, 2009, 03:20:32 AM

thats a pretty legit story lol, hope you heal soon! put some tooth paste on your ear :beer: :beer:

Title: Re: ROUND2 battle: BEGINNER group (flatwax81 vs AddisonM)
Post by: AddisonM on July 14, 2009, 07:04:05 AM

toothpaste on the ear sounds like a bad idea right now, I have 20+ stitches all over my ear, I'm back from the hospital, They are confident It was a fluke of dehydration (I wasn't supposed to drink before surgery or eat) plus losing so much blood (surgery and at home) that it slowed my heart down enough to make me blackout and fall into the floor.

I feel a bit better now and have a large amount of T3's to try and help with pain.

I'm excited to see the battles, If someone drops out later on in the first round I will hopefully be back in good enough health to edit the footage I have.

Thanks for the get well wishes on here and facebook.

I'm sorry for so many paragraphs, I'm out of it right now.

flatwax81 still wanted to post his run. Here you are! He takes an uncontested win.

you "might" be able to send the video to an email address as an attachment, depending on how large it is. I'd be willing to host that for you if you're totally opposed to signing up for youtube or vimeo. It's not too hard to set up an account tho. either way bro  -_-

Post by: ondo on August 10, 2009, 02:33:13 PM

I have some news, guys.

I got both of the videos. And I saw, that Talisayflat is way better for the begginer group.
So I could just disqualify him the easy way. But I found a solution. I'll move him to intermediates. Switch him with flatforever, who got the free spot.

That leaves a free spot in begginers. The first who signs up is in, battles with vignjo.
4 days from the moment someone signs up.

 I was told to enter beginner cuz I don't do cliffhangers and hitchhikers. That rubbed me the wrong way. So what if I don't do those! Maybe that's not exactly my riding style...maybe I do back wheel trix a lot??? I know that video was basic  Those were some of the most basic links I used to do... and when put into a beginner comp I'm surely not gunna put any of my advanced trix in them... especially round 1. I'm very capable of more advanced riding... I have videos out there showing that. And I didn't take that as a knock at all. :)

Judge me later in the intermediate class. Like I said I'm not Gods gift to flatland but I know I can handle intermediate.

This wasn't referring to me right?  Because I didn't mean the first quarter final battle.

I meant semi final battles.

I am back now. Just got the sheet updated.

Sarge is still in the Lead right now Mike dood is closing in

1st Sarge with 334 points
2nd Mike Dude with 329 points
3rd Bmx4life with 328 points

Everyone is very close and anyone could take it. Sarge is also the only beginner in the Top 10 of all classes!

Keep on Riding!

Wow, that is really cool.  It knd of makes me feel like a sand bagger.  Sorry for that if that is the case.  I got rocked in expert and was signed up for beginner before they introduced intermediate.  I will move up next round regardless.  I just hope to be home from honeymoon and get some good footy next week.

Adios!  Leave for honeymoon in 3 hours!

Mike Dood doesn't want to go further and he said that the battle wasn't fair, because he is a lot better than beginners here, so he gave vignjo his spot.
It's kinda strange in the sense of competition, but I'll allow it.

Ondo...my bike is broken...and I don't know when I will buy new parts...I won't be able to film or ride.  Could you please have my second round battle be the last one? Thanks!

Post by: Trickzta on August 26, 2009, 09:48:53 PM

Bad news.  I have a broken back axle, and I can't replace it as Im going away for 11 days in a couple hours.  If it hadn't broke, I would've still been able to compete, but now I can't at all.

Although upsetting, Im glad I entered.  The tricks I learned between my first and what would have been my second video have been far more than what I've done before.

I'll just have to show them off next time around.  Good luck everyone!  ^_^

Post by: ondo on August 27, 2009, 09:34:22 AM

I already sent messages to some, so as you see my battle schedules differs from what it should be by brackets:
http://bmxfreestyler.com/globalflabattles.htm (http://bmxfreestyler.com/globalflabattles.htm)

We're solving this problem, or by switching the battles or by changing the brackets. If second isn't possible, then first one.

But it doesn't matter. You should film your run now! Go out and ride!

It's not that I think I am a lot better... I'm not a beginner rider and never should have entered beginners. What I thought was beginners is intermediate level to be honest. But I am glad vignjo got the chance again...thank you!! :)

New Registration Page
New Trading Cards. The cards are linked to the spread sheet and stats update when the sheets are updated.

If all participating riders  could email me or post a Great photo of you riding that I can place on your card..that would be very helpful. There are a ton of riders and its taking about 45 min per card so it going to take some time. I just need photos to keep it going.

I personally think vignjo won this.  He had more tricks, and they were just as difficult as mine.

I'm in a really tough spot here.  My computer broke (like it turns on but not to windows just some dos screen that even after putting in the recovery disc it won't work) and on top of that I have had pnemonia (sp?) Since my last battle and haven't even looked at my bike.  if anyone has an idea what to do with my computer please help... Also, ondo, I would hate to bail out of the contest after making it to the final 4 and am going to do what I can to get a video up, but maybe my battle can be the second of the final 4 battles to give me some more le-way to fix my health and computer.

6 tires : 4 groups = 1,5 tires
I said, if the intermediate group wasn't created, then it would be 2 tires for each winner.

oh cmon, you're participating in a contest for free, where you won't fail any trick and you have 4 days to perform your combos in your favourite spot.. isn't that a reasonable prize? and it's even better, if you are a good rider you have the oportunity of winning a tyre

This battle has pushed me to work hard and focus. That is probably the most important thing. It hasnt been easy.  Besides if anyone really needs a tire there is a way to find one on this website. Everyone is more then outgoing with helping eachother out with that. Sarge here I come Right?

Bad News... I broke my pinky finger at work today (plus split the fingernail down to the base and it cut threw all the way to my skin.)  I can't grip the bars or seat (for probably another week or so i hope).  This is really unfortunate especially coming from the guy who was complaining about uncontested wins etc...

I am working on getting something worked out hopefully...so...
