2v2 match FLTron

FLTron is a multi-player Flash version of the classic game from Tron, Snafu, Snake, Blockade, etc. The idea is to drive around and cut people off with the trail you leave behind. Simple as that. You have 3 boosts (or "turbos") that allow you to go faster for like 1 second. You can play single (1v1, FFA) or team matches (2v2, 3v3), and choose between mini or big board. I hate big boards, because it takes a lot more time to "paint" (filling space with your own trail, while you wait for your opponent to crash). Also there's a chatbox next to the grid (or board), where you can give your team mate instructions or talk to spectators.

Here we have 2 teams: blue (Losfer.Legacy [me] + DanielTB, I think he's brazilian) and yellow (Brandy918 + Jogo1 and then Stepholduser replacing Brandy). These guys are all pros, and if Brandy's being honest about her gender, she's by far the best female Tron player ever, and a great team mate.

Every game has 4 rounds. Final score was 6-3, us (that is 6 games, 4 rounds each), but I must admit our lag was sometimes an advantage (check out the ping number next to each player's spot. The higher the ping, the more you lag and/or "cheat", according to those who believe lag is always an advantage. I disagree).

FLTron pros: being a multi-player platform, games are ever-changing, so it's not predictable. Good stress therapy in the middle of a working day. Doesn't require a powerful computer or internet connection. You get to "know" (or something like that) people from all over the world.

FLTron cons: can be pretty addictive if you're good and/or you're the competitive type. Most players are kids under 22, so you have to deal with their behavior. Unskilled players usually "steal" a spot and the match gets uber-boring. The game is hosted on Nonoba.com, and their servers suck, so the game crashes pretty often. I heard they're changing servers soon though.

This match was recorded back in Aug, 2011. Original video time: 20 mins (I stretched it into 5 mins, so the actual game is slower than it looks here)
