The Wipeout HD Cup

[kanar]

Got a report from the arena (wipeoutarena.net), P_Denton (buzzard) advances to next round, after winning his round 6-0 against Pafduck. Thanks a lot guys for playing your match! You can check the nice original racing log HERE (and also emix21's racing log too).

Cyberio (PSN name, not sure if that's also zone name) defeats Rubix 4-3.

After trading wins in our chosen races, it came down to Anulpha. I was in the lead most of the way and a perfectly timed missile knocked me off line and off the track as I was going into the final straight to the finish.

Well played Cyberio.

We were surprisingly well matched. Almost all races were within a couple seconds or less. Well, his chosen zone battle was a disaster for me, but zone has never been a strength of mine.

Hi Rubix, i came to post the same thing.

amazingly 4-3 which i never thought i was going to win (the pilots who choose phantom are a real challenge and only few times i beat them), i didn't win the phantom races (his choices) especially the metropia reverse (lose with 10 seconds), but my beloved zone battle finally made the draw.

I know i had luck with the missile in the last track, but also i lost some races by this way.

In any case, well played Rubix!

Played my match with the legendary Luxoflux tonight...

Luxoflux's races - all Single Races, Phantom Class, 5 laps. Weps and BRs on.

Sol 2 Reverse: Luxoflux wins.
Metropia Reverse: Luxoflux wins.
Moa Therma Reverse: Luxoflux wins.

Colonel__Gaddafi's races
Zone Battle @ Pro Tozo: 50 limit: Colonel__Gaddafi wins.
Zone Battle @ Corridon 12: 50 limit: Colonel__Gaddafi wins.
Single Race @ Anulpha Pass Reverse, Rapier Class, 4 laps. Weps On. BRs Off. Luxoflux wins.

Standard Race
Single Race @ Anulpha Pass, Rapier Class, 4 laps. Weps On. BRs On. Luxoflux wins.

Final Result:
Luxoflux 5 - 2 Colonel__Gaddafi

A really enjoyable 1 vs 1. He annihilated me on the phantom races, but the rapier races were surprisingly close. Luxoflux isn't a zone battle player so those were my only real chance, and I managed to conquer my nerves sufficiently to win both.

An honour and a privilege Luxoflux, I'll be rooting for you throughout the rest of the Cup.

And a big, big thank you to Kanar for putting this all together, and to all the other Cup organisers. Happy days indeed.

Hi all

Flaflasat vs Assassin900

I have won for definitive abandonment to the beginning of the third race, after having abandoned both the first and the second race, an absurd situation.

If I can allow me a suggestion for next year, to put a rule to participate a minimum of experience in way to avoid disagreeable evenings (3 evenings up to the 3 at night for me)

For correctness I will send a link to kanar and to kgb a video that shows the carrying out of the races.

[kanar]

thanks for posting here flaflasat; well I dunno what to say about your experience, tbh in 99% of the cases the pilots (even from different nationalities) manage to play a best of 7 races in perfect fairness & gentleman attitude. So obviously we had this 1% biohazard weird internet behaviour stuff here. Hope we won't have more.
Sadly, & as we said before, this 1st round will be a joke for a few of us, due to quitters, last minute withdrawals & other weird issues.

But hopefully, it was/it will be great fun already for the majority of us. I wish you a good 2nd round my dear flaflasat!

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

Hey guys, I have sent my opponent il_mago_di_doz a Psn message one week ago, but haven't received a reply yet. He's almost never online though... Does anybody know if this guy speaks English? Cheers Rick

[kanar]

il_mago is Italian, speaks barely english, best thing is to ask to team Italy if they have any news from him mate.

Got a result @ vulture; Deepmix beats afuroky 6-0 (psn pm confirmation from afuroky)

[jeegee]

Great race, RJ O'Connell! I had a great time against you!

[RJ O'Connell]

GGs IndoorSnowStorm.

I'm upset at the way I lost the last race - fell of course and only one turbo after that...no excuses though, that was one that slipped out of my fingertips after going up 3-0. Nothing cheap or stupid about that.

Good luck in the next round!

[jeegee]
