JDC 29 Awards

And what a JDC this has been, with A7med snagging the title off Jety, who has comfortably won JDC for three consecutive seasons. Will A7med be able to hold his title as long as Jety? But without further ado, we present to you the awards for JDC season 29!

It is important to note that JDC 30 is definitely going to see a significant overhaul with major changes to how scoring will work. In the mean-time, we would appreciate it if you could leave some feedback (if any) on this newspost!

I would like to take this opportunity to add that we thank everyone who participated and also to those who helped organise this season, making it one of the best seasons in recent years.

Addressing some scoring issues

I've (re-)deployed a fix for some scoring issues that have been plaguing this season. Some of you have gained some points you should have received but didn't, but overall standings are the same.

Apologies for the delay with this fix; I've had very limited internet access over the past few weeks. Please let me know in the comments if there are any lingering issues.

PS: This fix supersedes one that was announced a few hours ago. This should be of particular interest to Jety, who replied to that one with a further bug report that is hopefully addressed with this fix as well.

Edit: I've fixed a further issue that resulted in some more points being lost (thanks for the report, Jety). Again this does not change the rankings (of the top 10 at the least) but it does give some of you more points.

Final Round

And so begins the final round of JDC 29! It's worth a few more points than normal.

Don't forget to join us for our crime and punishment event tonight!

Pest event postponed

I've decided to delay the Pestilence event until tomorrow evening (20:00 CET) as I have been informed that both the NT game Egypt vs Serbia and the JJ2 Shots Fired live speedrun are both coinciding with the original timing of the event (21:00 CET).

A spont event will be organised tonight in its place at an earlier time, so stay tuned for details!

Round 2 has begun

JDC Round 2 has begun - expect a few changes to scoring this time around! Congratulations to A7med for winning Round 1.

We have been informed of some bugs regarding the scoring in Round 1, and these will be fixed retrospectively as soon as we discover the cause, so don't worry about your points if they seem wrong.

Also, don't forget to join us for our Capture the Flag event tonight! Challenge of the Round & Assassination scores to follow shortly...

JDC unofficially opened for business

The spontaneous ground force event is over, and now everyone is officially free to start playing matches for JDC!

In JDC 29, we now award bonus points for playing with unique team-mates in your team-games. In combination with this new addition, this week's challenge of the round will be to play with at least 5 unique teammates this round.

Stay tuned for the hLRS opening event tomorrow!

Opening Event Postponed

The planned opening event has been pushed back until Sunday as unfortunately I’m not able to make it tonight. However, there will be a spont event tonight in its place, so stay tuned!

JDC 29 Starting Soon!

Jety must surely feel comfortable at that #1 spot and it doesn't seem like she's planning to let go of it anytime soon, winning this season with an impressive 100% win rate.

Things are a little more interesting further down the rankings. Jelly Jam (nom de guerre Herobrine) did well this season and really put himself in the picture, playing over 40 duels and taking the #3, just behind Sir Ementaler, who climbs to #2 off the back of strong event performances.

Coming right after the re-release of the Jazz Jackrabbit games on GOG, this season saw some newcomers join us as well. happygreenfrog deserves a special mention, cracking the top 10 in his first attempt - we hope to see him and the other first-timers back next season!

More generally speaking this season had something of a slow start when it came to duels and team games, no doubt because unlike before its start didn't coincide with a holiday. The pace picked up a little when the Christmas holidays started though, and events were well-attended throughout the season.

For next season, we're gonna take a good look at what parts of JDC are still fun and engaging, and which parts work less well and may need some revising. But even if we can't say what next season will look like yet, stay tuned for more news - and let us know if you have any ideas for future seasons!
