Hmm, we'll see. I actually have to finish a project first today, so I don't know when/ if I could start.
Then again, it could just be easier if TS took over. Since Silence and Shear both seem to be busy.

match 1
grid 1: Reverb grid 2: Death Rook
The battle started swift with both acs launching attacks in a circle of bazooka and missile barrages. Suddenly, death rook to the defensive even though he was ahead in ap. Reverb was being quite stubborn and charged into Death Rook's hiding place with guns a blazing. Death Rook kept launching barrage after barrage each hurting Reverb more and more each time. Then Reverb caught a break Death Rook finally ran out of ammo in his micro missile launcher. Reverb danced around Death Rook's hiding spot pegging off his ap. As if Death Rook Couldn't take it anymore starting firing his bazooka widely every chance he got. Reverb dance didn't last long, with a bazooka wound to the core, reverb was finished.
grid 1: 0000 grid 2: 6491 time: 54s winner: Death Rook
match 2
grid 1: d-R-eadlock grid 2: Zeratul
Immediately after the match started both ACs lunged at each other as if the both hated each other to the core. Zeratul left of his barrage of micro missiles and Dreadlock response was with a bazooka barrage of his own. Both ACs closed into each other as if they wanted to bare knuckle box. Zeratul left of a nichirin burst but Dreadlock quickly backed off. Zeratul after taking many bazooka blasts started fearing for his life and quickly backed off when it should have kept strong and stayed in close. The battle was down hill after that with many of bazooka blasts, Dreadlock finished off Zeratul and walked away.
Grid 1 :7973 Grid 2 :0000 time: 26s winner: d-R-eadlock
Match 2
Grid 1: Barda Grid 2: Axel evo
This battle seemed as if children were in a mine field throwing rocks at each other. All you could see was explosion after explosion. Both acs came in ready to blow each other to pieces. Barda did a slight miscalculation and didn't count for Axel's inside napalm rockets. After a few seconds Barda found himself ablaze and struggling to keep shots straight against Axel's kangaroo style of battle. Barda backed off hoping to cool off in enough time to finish Axel off. He almost succeeded but Axel fired in one last grenade blast and finished him off.
Grid 1:0000 Grid 2:4521 time: 17s winner: Axel evo
match 4
grid 1: CobraII grid 2: Goliath
Both ACs marched and shook the earth with their massive sizes. Suddenly, GO! was announced and battle started. Both ACs seemed a little awkward with each other. They backed off and launched attacks from a far. It was as if Goliath feared that Cobra could bite him and Cobra thought that Goliath would beat him over the head with a shovel. This set the constant pace through out the battle. Both ACs jumping about letting off Bazooka and grenade blasts at each other hoping to hit. This quickly turned into an endurance battle. Cobra choosing attack power of ammo rounds quickly ran out of ammo in what seemed to be its Trump card. Cobra with a last bit of courage charged in to find that Goliath had napalm rockets waiting for him. With Cobra finding himself burning to death, shuttered quickly to Goliath's massive shovel.
grid 1:0000 grid 2:3811 time: 53s winner: Goliath

Well done carnage, your descripts are pretty good but I can spot a few grammatical errors here and there. I don't mind, though, I thought they were some of the most fast paced I've read so far. The battle between Goliath and Cobra II was probably the best, with the use of imagery and the bit about Cobra burning to death (lol, isnt it strange that Sinner and Tailsnake always get matched up? TS got revenge again).
Now things are heating up. Personally, I cant believe I won against Reverb, Rook proved to be a better design than I gave it credit far. And apparently now that the tourney is running again a bit of life has returned to the board.

Wow, Zeratul was anihalated. It seemed to have the same problem I had when making my nichrin user, you sically need sucide AI to get your AC to use the Nichrins the way it should On the bright side, Goliath hit Cobra with a shovel!

Well, I certainly think that your results are quite descriptive and paints a clear picture of what went on in each battle. That, coupled with the fact that you're most available and actually volunteered to do it at such a quick pace, makes me think that you should definitely finish the tourney off for us. Go for it, carnage.

Excelent, Cobra II's eternal struggle with the shovel continues.
*ahem* Anyway, good job with the speed so far, I don't mind waiting. Now I'm up against Jacques in the next round.
The real question will be if my cricket head will be enough to stand up against d-R-eadlock's hohshi. Hmm...
