Um... I know there is some stigma attached to not changing the rules on anything once the tournament is started... so now that it was originally stated that this round would end on the 30th at 23:59 GMT, you don't want to change it to what it should be, the 29th at 23:59 GMT. Because changing the rules is bad.

However, unless I'm missing something, all rounds in this tournament are supposed to be exactly one week in length, yes? So changing this round to 8 days is effectively changing the rules. I'm pretty sure most people were under the impression that this round was one week and didn't pay very close attention to the date. I know I sure didn't.

What I'm trying to say is - please oh please don't make us play this mess of a game for an extra day.
We tlaked about it with pete but we're waiting marco's answer...

I´M VERY ANGRY!!

I lost the opportunity to finish with my first life. Almost I finished the game in 19 min. This was the second try. In the first one, I don´t knew that I could leech a little on fire bridge.

And congratulations, BBH! I´ve watched your inp and you played very well!! :o :D
Long life to good games

Hey guys.
A little sad news from me... I am going to quit k6.
It has been an awesome tournament so far and I'm sure the next rounds will be even more exciting.
My decision is not related to the selection of games or anything :D it's just personal problems I have to deal with.
I am telling you this because I would like my score for this round to be ignored in case it qualifies for the next round, so that I give the opportunity to someone else to go on... is that possible?
Thanks coordinators for your hard work and good luck everyone! 8)

PS. Go BBH!

Sadly, MJS. I thought we can do, together with Valter, a power from South America. You´re a great player and I´ll miss to see your great replays.

VALTER, WHERE ARE YOU?????

I know I'm out, but when you chose gng for this round you hit right in the midst of my pride :lol:

Just one comment about this game: I've read from some of you putting this game as down as possible. Ok, that's your point of view. Mine is Ghosts'n'Goblins is absolutely great. Here at Spain was an enormous success and, with Crazy Climber, is probably the game where I spent more coins. It was like a drug, any money I could get ended making the operator a bit richer. A ruin for my savings :(

I know that it probably should have been "polished" a bit more to remove the bugs it has, specially with control, but being as buggy as it is, it's still absolutely addictive.

But as I said, that is my point of view.

Btw, it's been a fantastic and very original (fast play) choice for round 3. Pity I had to give up on round 2.
