Oodammo Pistol Contest

This is the contest me and TD were/are organizing.


LOADING                                                                                                       

MeZak: 4/5. Very, very quick.

OodAst3.6: 4/5. Not quite as quick as the MeZak, but it makes up for it in comfort.

TBOS: 1/5. Truly agonizing.

EAP: 3/5. Not bad. Tougher and more time consuming than the OodAst and MeZak, but much better than the TBOS.

STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY / DURABILITY                                                  

(Note, I'm rating according to how "Bendy" they feel.)

MeZak: 4/5. Really sturdy. Barely any bend.

OodAst: 4/5. Really sturdy, but again, just barely less sturdy than the MeZak. But not so much as to lower it a whole point.

TBOS: 2/5. Only 3 layers. Bendy, bendy, bendy.

EAP: 4/5. 5 layers, so it's obviously pretty good.

RANGE                                                                                                            

(The first range is with 2 #64's, the second is with the maximum amount. Measurement was averaged out of 5 shots. I used Google Earth, but I promise I didn't cheat.)

MeZak: 4/5. 39 feet. 63 feet. (Max. of 6 bands.)

OodAst. 3/5. 44 feet. 52 feet. (Max. of 4 bands.)

TBOS. 3/5. 41 feet. 41 feet. (Max. of 2 bands.)

EAP: 2.5/5. 37 feet. 37 feet. (Max. of 2 bands.)

FINAL SCORES                                                                                             

MeZak: 12/15. #1

OodAst: 11/15. #2

TBOS: 6/15. #4 Ouch

EAP: 9.5/15. #3

So, congrats MeZak, you win.

(Though, I'd like to point out, this is based pretty much entirely on performance, not personal opinion.)

I do.
~KGB~ in reply to DJ RadioJan 2, 2010. 8:46 AM
cool! on xbox? if so have you completed both?
DJ Radio in reply to ~KGB~Jan 2, 2010. 9:09 AM
No, its on PC.  Both of what?
~KGB~ in reply to DJ RadioJan 2, 2010. 9:10 AM
kk, halo 1 and 2
DJ Radio in reply to ~KGB~Jan 2, 2010. 9:15 AM
I beat halo, but not halo 2, because for some reason it runs slow and it lags during important battle sequences.
~KGB~ in reply to DJ RadioJan 2, 2010. 9:17 AM
kk, must be an error...... whats your fav mission on halo 1?
DJ Radio in reply to ~KGB~Jan 2, 2010. 9:45 AM
I think its a tie between level 1 and level 7.
~KGB~ in reply to DJ RadioJan 2, 2010. 9:49 AM
cool! mine is assault on the control room
DJ Radio in reply to ~KGB~Jan 2, 2010. 9:53 AM
I find that level rather long, though there are ways to bypass some areas.
~KGB~ in reply to DJ RadioJan 2, 2010. 10:44 AM
yep, its very long, true
travw (author) in reply to ~KGB~Dec 30, 2009. 3:52 PM

TheDunkis in reply to travwDec 30, 2009. 7:34 PM
It means that the person has gone so far beyond average laziness that he actually can't pick up and move his finger so he'd rather push the same key twice.

The mezak didn't work for me. The magazine blew up every time I shot it.

Give me an example, and I'll consider. I pretty much stand by what I said.

But that's not to say I won't compromise a bit.
Killer~SafeCracker in reply to travwDec 30, 2009. 3:33 PM
Nevermind. All of these rating are based on opinions. Everyone has a different one for the most part.
 
It really doesn't matter to me. :-) Buddyz??
travw (author) in reply to Killer~SafeCrackerDec 30, 2009. 3:38 PM
Cool I'm glad. Though I'd like to say that they aren't entirely opinion. But whatevz, glad you're not mad.

BUDDYZ!!!

travw (author) says: Dec 30, 2009. 3:04 PM
@Killer~SafeCracker

Sorry, but in your defense, both of these were posted quite a while ago. This wasn't meant to be offensive, but instead to instruct people on what guns are most effective war-wise. Buddyz?

=P
TheDunkis says: Dec 29, 2009. 3:04 PM
Alright awesome job!  I hate to be too biased but still there's something I noticed. For range the MeZak scored a 4 for having just barely less range than mine but overall about 11 more feet max. However, the OodAst and TBOS scored the same although the Oodast had just a tad more range and again about 11 more feet max.
But anyways yeah hopefully it doesn't spark too much controversy. Opinions will still be opinions with a lot of people.
And how'd teh bebeh work out for you? Lol I never really planned for it to be something anyone else would make.
travw (author) in reply to TheDunkisDec 29, 2009. 3:09 PM
Yeah, I had trouble determining points for range... It's not only range, but also how fast the Oodammo travels. So, I just sorta winged it. Overall, I don't think it'd change final rankings though.

I love teh bebeh. It's like a billion times better than the ZLG. It holds slightly less bands (5ish) but it has a much better range. And the handle is comfier. And it's more sturdy. OOOOOOHHHHHHH YYEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHH. Only thing I don't like about it is that it can only shoot Oodammo. (Or any other connector+white rod combination.)
