3 weeks of Ultimate Ascent is in the books! Who will rise to the top this week?

It’s really cool to be on the list this week, and have our team compared with the likes of Bomb Squad and the HOT Team.
However it would be nice if you added a dot after the T in S.W.A.T. :D.

Anyway, great show this week, glad to see our alliance captain at KC capture the #1 slot.

1-5? 5-1?

Wow, except for Chipotle, thats exactly the top 5(really top 4) and the order to which I guessed it would be.

13

Awesome!
Also, sorry about the video links not being optimal.
We have footage from the GKC Regional, but we are still sifting through it all, so none of it is available online at the moment.
Though, maybe by the time week 5 rolls around…

  5. Chipotle

Thanks for posting the rankings.
Our record is 17-1 and not 13-5. :slight_smile:

I tweeted the question about what have we learned that we could NOT have predicted at kickoff. Sorry for the ambush.

I think that the GDC must have spent more time trying to figure out how this game could/would be scored real-time than they did designing the game. Once they knew that quadrature detection of scored frisbees was going to be “impossible,” it must have been scramble of the year to get a working goal that could score real-time. The fact that we’re counting manually afterwards tells me they got close. This is my estimate for the hardest design task this year. Beats climbing for difficulty by quite a ways.

Thanks for putting us on the list, guys. We’ll do our best to not disappoint this week.

You guys have an awesome machine. Keep scrambling to that corner! Good luck this weekend.
