The Wipeout HD Cup

[blackwiggle]

No idea, he hasn't contacted me.
Maybe his PS3 has YLOD ?, I hope not.

[zero3growlithe]

If he had YLOD then he would have contacted with me through PM.

[Oryx Crake]

Congrats DP! sorry to see you go Luna.

might be time to set up the finals board soon methinks!

[Medusa]

Great racing Dark Phantom! I loved your plasma shot on Chenghou, verrry nicely done!

[Aeroracer]

congratulations to dp89 for a well earned victory against a fantastic player...
two of the best pilots fighting it out..cant wait to see the videos..

maximum respect to luna for coming back and playing her games after her real life issues..

i got a lot on in my real life at the moment and kinda drifted away and dropped out of cup..seeing luna playing when she could have easily dropped out inspires me to plug in ps3 and get stuck in and play..
i look forward to my games now as i remeembered its about taking part that is most important in this cup..winning n losing are secondary for me..
though winning is better than losing

-5 days guys, please keep that in mind. If there's still pending meetings beyond sunday, I'll investigate for fastpath solutions or simple double disqualification. Gah! 6 months. Facepalm.

texasalex (online 8 days ago), says my friend list I'll PM him on forum now...
EDIT: Sent... however i don't think he'll answer (last activity: 8th June 2011)
EDIT2: Texasalex is now online We're playing on friday!

[kanar]

-3 days. Prob. one of my favs, superb artwork by LauraJaneArt. A nice metaphora too. I really hope we could have a full final board there, after 6 damn fkn months.

[zero3growlithe]

I have contacted with texasalex and we'll be racing tommorow night
btw. Why's that guy on that artworks is sad... and has AG-Sys logo too (good i already changed myslef to Qirex )

[mic-dk]

I think the picture was taken at the unveiling of the Fury AG-SYS. He then saw what had happened to the most sexy craft in the league and he was sad - "I'm flying THAT?!?"

Oh and have a good match, zero and tex!

[kanar]

Good to hear that Zero, good luck to both of you.

Got a few more infos regarding the background stories behind Rezatron vs skrotos & jasmin vs Bazz. Tbh the best thing is to eliminate you all monday, as I feel you guys are all sharing your part of responsibility. I'm sorry but I'm tired of that kind of stuff.

About the pic, I searched something to express my Facepalm feelings lol. AG5Y5 rocks btw.

@ my twitter's followers; please note my account will become private in a few days, probably still related to wipeout though, don't know exactly yet.

Zero3Growlithe vs Texasalex

Texasalex's tracks:
Modesto Heights - Venom: Texasalex
Amphiseum Fwd - Flash: Texasalex
Amphiseum Rev - Flash: Texasalex

Zero3Growlithe's tracks:
Ubermall - Phantom: Zero3growlithe
Chenghou Project - Phantom: Texasalex
Modesto Heights - Phantom: Zero3growlithe

Match began earlier than i wanted it to (1:30h earlier.... no training for me) so... yeah, beating texasalex's records were for nothing.
Good luck in rest of Cup Tex Thanks for kicking my ass
EDIT: btw. Is changing ships during races (i.e flash-> phantom races change) is alowed?

[Dark_Phantom_89]

Really sorry to see you go Zero. You were one of the people who still had faith and showed interest in the Cup. Don't give up on HD - you're too good of a player to lose.

[zero3growlithe]

There's on plus in it... i have one interest less (i don't have enough time for all of my interests )

[blackwiggle]

Yes you are allowed to change craft between races.
You can't change the agreed tracks, speed, lap amounts, weapons on/off or type of race.

[kanar]

Well. Let's start with the good -great- things first. There's people there who deserve a MASSIVE round of applause; Luna, Dark_Phantom, Yeldar, JFTheBestFan, Woopzilla, Bart_Mdma, Texasalex, Zero3, Speedkang, Billychan... You guys offered us an outstanding show. So thank you so much, in the name of all the pilots who participated to this odyssey. Now here comes the quarter finals, Woop, Texas, Speedkang & Tiduch I wish you good luck & please, as usual... Vids of your Uber skillz would be awesome .

And now the depressing part of the post. Jabberjaw would say I'm once again too nice there. Anyway. Rezatron, Skrotos, Bazzman & Jasmin have one more week to redeem themselves. The calendar for quarter finals is set, so from july 18, Yeldar & Dark_Phantom will be free to arrange their semi-finals.

[Dark_Phantom_89]

=>Dark_Phantom_89 Vs FACEPALM

Haha, I like that. :

Seriously though, Kanar you've done an abolsutely fantastic job will all of this and for that I am really grateful.

I really wish that the two outstanding matches would get a move on though! Might be worth sending them messages over PSN to see if they are even interested any more.

[Oryx Crake]

Alright challonge boards updated to reflect the current standings and I've made a finals board as well (it's all on the website) though the finals board might take a day or two before it's "published" (internal sluggishness I think)

Keep at it my friends ^_^

[MrSmadSmartAlex]

This FACEPALM pilot is doing rather well for an unknown (I've never heard of him anyway). How did he manage to be in two different quarter finals though? Surely, it's not fair that he entered the Cup twice, so he should be disqualified.

[yeldar2097]

Yes, get a ****ing move on you lazy ****ing morons. You're always ****ing playing the game. I've had the worst 9 months of my life and have barely ****ing played the game, when I did it was high as **** in an attempt to escape ****....and now I'm here waiting for you to beat me so I can go and risk my life for someone I love. Maybe that doesn't matter to self-indulgent bastards like yourselves. All the rest of us are waiting too. Everyone else has made effort in the face of adversity as well. There's certainly at least two of you who do nothing but sit on your PENGUINS all day in your pathetic little veg-mess playing the game (Or at least as much as I used to), so why not stop being such PENGUINS and SORT IT OUT.
Kanar, bless his soul, and everyone else has done nothing but make a constant effort to make this cup happen. Yes, people have pulled out here and there but this takes the ****ing piss. If you can't be arsed, if you don't care, whatever it happens to be, at least do the decent thing and say so, or suck it up and get on with it (although given the current state of affairs, not ****ing likely) Don't hide behind silence. Yes, I'm a drama queen and yes, I have been a complete PENGUIN to most people in the community in one way or another, but at least I'm still here doing my bit. Doing it because I want to, for the game and the community. So, to finish...more than anything else, show some ****ing respect for this game, this community, people who do care. Selfish, worthless PENGUINS.

tl;dr
Hurry up
