Hey Yo! So I didn't write about this after last year's tournament, because I got sidetracked. Shame on me. Just wanted to write that I am pumped to once again participate in this year's Raven's Head tournament. Brian and dudes do an exceptional job setting up a great tournament. As a tournament host, Brian is awesome. I can imagine it is not an easy thing to keep all of the moving pieces organized throughout the tournament, so I want to show Brian and crew the love they deserve. THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN for setting this shit up. We players truly do appreciate your efforts. See all of you f*ckers next weekend, where I will not make the same amateur mistake this year by giving someone Deion Sanders to run all over me... and yes, I'm still pissed about that.

The one thing i learned from that weekend is to Never eat dennys after midnight. Most my tourney gamss were played from the toilet lol. Great weekend as me mort were out in the northwest for a wedding and got a chance to play some tecmo in between.

Hello, I wrote a script* to look at a .csv output file produced by a TSB rom roster/attribute extractor ("Roster Extractor", nice tool, thanks!), and produce the spreadsheet attached here which includes a bunch of sheets listing TSB players and attributes by team, position, etc. and providing some analysis based on my own attribute weights*. The file includes ratings, ranks, scores (an attempt at normalized ratings across positions), and attribute stats (e.g min,min,mean,mode of - e.g. RS, MS, RP, INT - at bottom of sheet) based on position (including KR, PR), ranking OL, DL, O, D, teams, as well as a suggested "best"* lineup. It also colors the min and max value for a particular attribute (per position), and provides some highlighting to draw attention to better players and attributes. Each team has two sheets: the first being a "raw" roster, and the second breaks it down a bit further, separates by position, and provides a suggested starting lineup. This file is based off of "The TSB Book of Armaments" (couldn't find the thread again on this site btw), which a few years ago when I started getting "serious" about playing Tecmo was a valuable resource (although it did have some issues and limitations). While the file here is not much beyond what you would find at tecmogeek.com or the tecmosuperapp (awesome resources!), perhaps the value would be in generating a reference for a custom rom such as for HSTL or TSB'18, etc or possibly having a reference when you don't have the internet and/or your smartphone. Additionally, the script could be re-run (takes seconds) to re-generate if you want to alter the stat weights in the source code (2). This was a project I made from the curiosity and challenge of being able to create a custom spreadsheet reference for myself, but hopefully others may find it helpful as well. 1. If this post is in the wrong spot, apologies, and fee free to re-thread 2. The script is in Perl, happy to share if anyone is interested -- or even regenerate spreadsheet and post if you send me request with rom and/or stat weights 3. These are generated through a very simple algorithm and are intended to provide a suggestion for initial lineup subs (no WR/TE allowed at RB1 btw). The team rankings are more an indication of total stat allocation across entire roster than actually being "better" e.g. PIT is not the 4th best team, but scores high for BC on O, and of course D and a bit for S/T. 5. The only other name I could think of was "TSB Grimoire" (any guitar players out there?), but it isn't nearly that expansive 6. "Roster Extractor" was found here: http://www.tecmosb.com/Downloads/Editors/Roster Extractor.zip The 2nd TSB Book of Armaments.xlsx

I'm sorry about my first commentator. He is a local friend that follows my channel and I took a risk on him because he's a funny dude, but he was out of control from the get go. Once we are done today, I will take the video down and edit out all the BS. His views don't reflect mine obviously. He's off the stream now. 2nd CPU/ capture card was not cooperating for twitch stream.

An update for everyone turning off the stream: I ended up going 2-1, so I'm at least tied for first in the 'group of death'. Not that anyone is surprised.

yea this is not something you expect watching any video game tournament being streamed from the announcers

This is like andrew dice clay commentating. Definitely nsfw. I did laugh at some of it but crude humour doesn't bother me. Definitely not for public consumption And its definitely not good since its the main stream being promoted. You can't have the commentator talking like that on the main stream for something being marketed and promoted.

For those wanting to watch the stream, It is very NSFW. I had it muted then unmuted for a sec and it was way worse. Sorry, can't support this. This is not what Tecmo is about.

Mort Lou and regulator aren't here yet. Looks like I'm winning the group of death by default.

See you benches at the tourney! I hope group 3 is ready to get sloppy with me as I continually call tier 5 match-ups! { I recently unearthed a secret button sequence that gives Matt Brock Mike Daniels-like dominance on the d-line. Alongside Bob Nelson, Brock/Daniels and I will be unstoppable } Berwyn, it's time to PARTY.

At least I drove my a$$ all the way up to Seattle to attend it.

Sure. Maybe next time you should write down when the tournament starts so you can show up on time.

^^^A couple nice wins???????? I think the word you were looking for was 'exceptional'!!! I'm just glad I got to add @red98sethuthut and @Tick to my list of Tecmo legends that have fallen victim to the one and only T.B.K!!!!!!! .....but don't worry, Gripsmoke, Kampuna, Manyo, SirTed, and InvaderStar are on that list too, so you two have some company Kamp survived our rivaled PHX vs DAL by the skin of his teeth or I woulda been 4-2 .........but don't worry D.T., your times comin'...

Great PICCS' @kamphuna8 NW faction representin'!!!
