The Wipeout HD Cup

[Mad-Ice]

I have been in touch with xaedrek who said that Mad-Ice has never sent him a message, which I don't really believe, he also said that he won't be able to play the match anyway, so he is out. Mad-Ice is through to the next round and will play Amorbis.

I got a message off Under_the_mayo who has told me he has to withdraw as he is losing his house and therefore his internet connection. Didn't think people would pull out in the second round but they have. IDReaper through to round 3.

I think he only looked in PSN messages, because I wrote him a message into Wipeoutzone. Anyway, next time I will do both. I saw Xaedrek is a member here, but as we can see now not very active here.

I am already in contact with Amorbis, we will keep you all up to date.

GameKyuubi 4

I had been watching it for the whole races tonight and right up to the cliffhanger!

My son had a chance to beat him but he did actually blew it on the second last race!

So there is your result!

[GameKyuubi]

Alright. Race results:

I started with Vanilla AGSYS.
Hunter played with Fury EG-X for all races.
Phantom - Vineta K White - Was going head to head until about 60% of the way through, where I ran out of juice and got eliminated. Hunter's win.
Phantom - Anulpha Pass White - I pulled ahead early and though I never truly broke away, I didn't see Hunter for the rest of the match. My win.
Phantom - Sol 2 - Man I was out of practice on this course. Ramming walls and eating mines all over the place, I got eliminated in the second lap and that was it. Hunter's win.

Rapier - Moa Therma Black - Switched to Icaras for this one to try to eke out a little more speed. IIRC this match was pretty uneventful. I think I hit Hunter with some rockets about halfway and pulled ahead for the rest. My win.
Rapier - Chenghou Project White - This was close. I switched back to AGSYS for this course. I pushed my craft too hard about halfway through and ate some attacks from Hunter to eliminate me. I stuck it out though and almost came back because Hunter screwed up and fell off the course on the last jump on the final lap. The race ended with a difference of less than half a second for Hunter's win.
Rapier - Sebenco Cl. .. I MEAN ANULPHA PASS WHITE - Due to some miscommunication on my part, I thought we were doing Sebenco when I actually said we'd do Anulpha. Whoops. I don't remember this race well, but I think I went for the powerup before the bridge and didn't quite make it. I clipped the edge of the bridge, stalled, landed on the lower route, and Hunter almost caught me but somehow I managed to get away. My win.

Tie breaker - Rapier Anulpha White - This was pretty intense. Hunter and I overcame each other quite a few times in this match and I got close to being eliminated several times. I caught Hunter a few times with the cannon on the bridge though and that was enough to pull ahead for the final lap. My win.

Hunter 3
GK 4


It's amazing how much the simple tension of being in an organized event can impact your skills. Before and after the event, I was going through perfect laps, hitting most speed pads all over the the place, but during the event I was doing stupid stuff like missing almost every barrel roll in Vineta K, not getting the hump BR on Anulpha, grinding walls in Sol 2 and all over the place. I'm sure it was similar for Hunter. Crazy.

I'm looking forward to that race, two very good pilots

[Medusa]

Hmmm well guess who won the match between Jav and I?
We had good races but I'm really sorry I wasn't in top form so I could have lost by smaller margins
We started on Vineta K where I really messed up the start of the track...it was bad. Then on to Moa Reverse where I got into the lead and then spaced out about midway in the 20 laps and hit some walls, then passed jav and let myself start staring at the time...space cadet reporting for duty!!
That was so painful. Oh well! Photo finish! Metropia...well I still don't know why I chose this track, ! But it was fun since I had picked good tunes to listen to anyway!
Then onto Jav's tracks, Sebenco, off he went, and then Sol 2, and then it was Vineta Reverse where again I made stupid wall hitting mistakes...and then to top it off, Anulpha I missed every single BR!!! It was truly pathetic haha!! But, I will upload the videos from my view, and Jav has some too, thanks for the races, Jav! I did have fun!
Final result: Jav 7 Kit 0 Decided!

That Moa Rev was amazing I had one of the worst wall scrapes you'll ever see, going into the final lap (talk about crumbling under the pressure ), got really lucky to win it tbh. A photo finish on a 20 lap, no BRs no weps race, you don't often see that. Thanks Medusa, you're a great sport and a very good racer

[IndoorSnowStorm]
