Pussycat Tribute Tournament 5

[alex_holt]

So, we come to an end of an age, fortunatly I come out on top at the end (yay!) so the blow is somewhat lessened. However it is a great great shame to see what is argueably the most presitigeous tourny going end.

However because Ive been a tad busy myself I havent managed to finish my writing debt (eg. Erratus and Wars Incarnate) I intened to write a small 2 bot per person tourny, eg. the same scale as VGC 03, and the title? Vapourbot Grand Championship 2006 - coming soon to a forum near you soon.

Dont worry Steve-O, I understand why you did it. I might have to finish my tourny off in a similar way, except I may put some more detail into it. Nice to see that my robots did better...and that Crash Bandi-bot didnt get torn up this time.

a true pity to see PTT closed down Steve, but I cant really blame you I guess

this hypothetical tournament is a nice way to finish the whole thing, some of the results are quite cool, and honoustly, the final four is one awesome bunch
congratulations to Aaron, Tony, Dave W and especially Alex H for their performance (come to think of it, Dave and I entered as one team! w00t, 2nd place for me! well done Dave)
also, congratulations to Steve for a rather great performance througout 5 series of PTT!

Nice stuff Steve! Glad you wrapped it all up which is something I dont do. Shame to see its all come to an end, but personally glad its all finished rather than dragging on. Congratulations to everyone that took part, especially to Tony and Dave for their great (possibly surprising) runs and most importantly to Alex for winning what may well be the last tournament of this size. As Alex says, seems like its the end of an age for vapourbots.

After commiting the crime of not finishing tournaments many a time, I know how hard it is to start a tournament back up after a period of inactivity and lack of time. Seems a lot of writers are getting that at the moment.

Well I say it every year around this time, so Ill say it again. Vapourbot fanfic is comming to an end... :sad: Glad to see Matty is hard at work trying to keep things going and nice to here there will be a VGC2006 though.
