North American Team WO Team

[TarotCardKiller]

I haven't seen an official public thread for this subject and thought Canada, US, Mexico, and other countries on this list http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ican_countries should make one team. A North American Team. What do you guys think of that idea.

If agreed, then we can find some candidates and figure how to select the 8.

Here is a list of potential pilots. I don't know too many wipers so let me know if I missed someone. To find out the mains/reserves, we'll do tourneys similar to KGB1971's "qualification" procedure if we have enough people. Qualifiers would be the pilots split into 2 groups. Each group of pilots would have a 8 race(forward or reverse) tourney or all 16 tracks . From there, the top 4 from each group can go on to have a 8 player tourney. 8 is fine if all 16 tracks is too long. From that tourney, we'd have the team, 1-4 mains with 5-8 the reserves. The races can either be w/ or w/o weapons. Selecting pilots for each group can be random, alphabetical order, or by geographical location.

If agreed, we can set a date. It'd be great to have the team by the 30th; if not, we'll work fast. I'll continue to contact the pilots and maybe others. Thanks for you input/help guys.

As of right now, this Friday the 3rd is the set date. I hope to see you guys there.

great idea
twice we tried to race you guys, and twice it failed miserably

[LOUDandPROUD]

Sounds good to me!

Some new guy from Jamaica joined here. He can join the North America team. I thought there would be heaps more North American pilots here, with there own team/social group.

What about Frost and Darkdrium777? They could organise something.

[TarotCardKiller]

Thanks for the heads up KIGO. There is a post about a N. American team in the group but it doesn't get any traffic and hardly gets responses. As for the Jamaican, (what's his sn) since he joined yours, I'll let him decide whether to join Australia or the N. America team (assuming there is one).

As for DarkDrium and the FrostE, I believe there is a big gathering in the Northern US this weekend so it'll probably be settled sometime next week. I know Vartazian wants in for sure. LaP -- I'll add you to the list.

I do wonder if there are wipers in the Southern US.

[KIGO1987]

The Jamaican guy joined here a few weeks ago. Dont remember his name. He created a thread here somewhere.

[Vartazian]

We should really find out whos the Main 4 and the 4 Back ups,

We dont want the Europeans laughing at us.

too late

Ideas and suggestions from the other side of the Atlantic ocean would be greatly appreciated.

I though GTP_Rorschach was Irish for some reason. Have you asked BlochNWhitey? He doesn't play online much but if you could convince him then he could be a good addition to any team.

[Darkdrium777]

I will participate as long as it doesn't interfere with anything else...
That anything else still has to be defined so for now it seems all right.

[Vartazian]

A tournament, We should just have a Vote IMO. One lucky Race shouldnt determine the team for our Continent,

People know who are fast, we have all raced eachother.

The problem is with that it becomes a popularity contest, (I hope some of us are more mature then that) Im sure we can discuss alternate methods here.

[SaturnReturn]

I saw Evolite online today. He quit the game just after I joined so I didn't get to play him, but I've heard he's really quick. Might be worth seeing if he's interested and including him in the process. Not long to decide now fellas. Registration closes June 30th.

[TarotCardKiller]

I used the thread in the NAWT group to add more players.

We don't have to use the tourney method; a vote will get the job done. (just an idea) We can vote 4 starters and 4 reserves. I'm not sure if everyone has raced each other though. I haven't raced a few: RJ O'Connell, DividedXZero, RedScar and Avenger2197. I will send out some PMs to make sure everyone is aware and find out what you guys want. We have til' the 30th, any idea is welcome.

Thanks for the heads up Sat'. I'll ask Evolite and see if he is interested.

[Feisar31]

I'm still interested in participating, but if we have a qualifying tournament before the 30th I'm not sure if I could make it. I would be happy to just be an alternate though (if that's possible).

It might be good to show who has confirmed their interest and who hasn't in that list in the first post. Thanks for taking the initiative on this TCK.

[Mad-Ice]

Good to see thing are picking up in team Nawty. Thanks TCK. I hope we will have enough teams very soon. The Japanese team is almost ready too.

Good luck and see you all in the WWC 2009.

I think it'd be ideal to have this team by June 28th but the sooner the better.

what the hell.....


their some tryouts for this olympic team or just find an information book...

[TarotCardKiller]

I'll admit. I'm not great at organizing, but I'm trying my best. I listed the pilots that I know are N. American but am asking all of them to make sure they want to participate. From there, a tryout date will be set.

If you have any ideas that will help. I'm open to suggestions.

[DividedXZero]

I'm more than happy to participate. I just need to know the qualification procedures, and what day and time.

[OBH]

Great to see you guys getting the ball rolling
