Head to Head battles Finals: Finals (results)

Here are the results of the Head to Head battles Finals of this year!


Finals (17–23 December)
To end the Head to Head battles of 2010, here you have the results of the final week. I, JaumeBG, am not responsible for any finalists complaining that they did not know that the Finals ended today, it was mentioned four times... So next year's Head to Head battles will start on Saturday, 1 January 2011, at 7–8 pm NZDT (usual sort of time). Selly is supposed to be doing an article on Kongpulse about sign-ups for next year, so when (or if) it's done, sign up there (if you want)!
3rd Place Battle:
IAmTheCandyman vs WiiPlayer113.
IAmTheCandyman typed 60,371 keys and WiiPlayer113 typed 0 keys.
IAmTheCandyman wins by 60,371 keys!

Final Battle:
sellyme vs videogames518.
sellyme typed 340,000 and videogames518 typed 948,204 keys.
videogames518 wins as sellyme resigns (and would've won by 608,204 keys anyway. Highest amount of keys pulse in 1 H2H!) ! Note (place mouse here to read)

There'll be an upcoming "congratulations" post. Check it out to see the prizes for the winners.

Head to Head battles Finals: Finals

This is the week to decide who are the best WhatPulsers (or most addicted) of Kongregate!


Semifinals (10–17 December)
This decides who are in the Finals and who're in the 3rd Place Battle! Who won this week? We'll see now.
Semifinal Battle 1:
IAmTheCandyman vs sellyme.
IAmTheCandyman typed 173,493 keys and sellyme typed 317,567 keys.

Finals (17–23 December)
The Finals will end on 23 December, that's Thursday, not Friday. It's the usual time but just one day before. I have no idea what I'll be doing on 24 December so I might not be able to do it then, and for reason we'll make it end one day before. Anyway, these two battles will determine the first, second, third and fourth best participants of the Head to Head battles: 2010. Good luck, guys!
3rd Place Battle:
IAmTheCandyman vs WiiPlayer113.

Final Battle:
sellyme vs videogames518.

Good luck! This is how the Challonge bracket looks like now:

Blog Stats!

We haven't done this for a while, and I saw several interesting things.

Yeah, so people seem to like porn. And I'm not sure why all those other blogs linked to us. Stats over 1 month btw.

New poll!

So the previous poll ended, and these were the results of it.


So most people think we should update more. 54% of voters said that. Well, yeah, we should. According to sellyme we'll be updating more throughout these Southern Hemisphere summer holidays. Hopefully we will!

36% of voters want more gadgets on the blog. Well, I'm not particularly sure what type of gadgets you'd like, so just tell us in the WhatPulse thread or whisper a Kongpulse writer and we'll see about it.

27% of voters voted for more useful links. Yeah, we shall try and improve that section of the blog.

3 people said we either can't improve or that they would tell us in the thread, well, I don't recall seeing those suggestions in the thread...


The new poll question simply asks who will win the Head to Head battles Finals of 2010. Well, vote for whoever you think will win! On 23 December we'll see who wins the Finals and we'll also see what percentage of blog readers got it right!

Quarterfinals (3–10 December)
So 8 people, the best 8, qualified for the Quarterfinals of this year's Head to Head battles! So the following battles weren't arranged as I wanted, but Challonge arranged them randomly. By the way, in the bracket, if you're wondering why sellyme and I have avatars to our left it's because we are registered users on Challonge.com so we can have our avatars next to our names in challenge brackets (if you have an account, just whisper me and I'll add you). Good luck! :D
Quarterfinal Battle 1:
racefan12 vs IAmTheCandyman.

Quarterfinal Battle 2:
sellyme vs Vegard20.

Quarterfinal Battle 3:
JaumeBG vs WiiPlayer113.

Quarterfinal Battle 4:
videogames518 vs tetrismaster.
