A 20th anniversary doesn't happen everyday.
Does anyone have any plans to celebrate this upcoming Anti-Gravity holiday? Maybe we should organize an event or something.

Well i am celebrating this with my own birthday lol
Maybe a 20th Anniversary AVALON event?
If I remember correctly, there is a way to emulate some of the old Wipeout games that had PSone to PSone link functionality, to be played online.
Since a lot of us are involved one way or another with the Formula Fusion Test Pilot Program, or Kickstarter......we have upgraded our PC's to participate.....it wouldn't take much to get something like this happening.
After a quick search I found it was tried, that was in 2011.....see post....maybe things have improved since then?

I'm in for anything console related My beloved WipEout is 20, wow that makes me feel old but in a good way
I'm thinking the same as you blackwiggle for avalon xD , or maybe a 24h open lobby xD , maybe too long i guess
We could extend the friday sessions over the whole weekend that period, however i'm not sure if i'll be around as i usually go visit the mum's over the weekend
Cipher
Well I'll set up a weekend bonanza, i'd like to stretch it across the whole weekend like the Avalons of old, but I'm gonna need help from you guys, guaranteed hosts who will keep going until zombiedom hits.
I'll need a show of hands before I can organise anything so if you want in for the weekend of 25th, let me know
If i'm home the weekend i'll be there
But no promises, i don't live by schedules
Cipher
Lol I need promises, that's the point. There's no way I can run this on my own so need people to pledge to be there for sure, but thanks anyway mate
An anniversary when there's no one to help us celebrate. No possible outlook on the future, just nostalgia.
To me this calls for a petition more than anything else. I don't like celebrating the dead, but I like to fight for survival!
I'd keep my eyes on SSGX and BallisticNG for the surprises.
Edge Magazine seems to be aware of the occasion.

Not much else out there though.
^That's not what that one is about, it was the 20th anniversary for the magazine itself and had multiple special covers
I've been searching for that one everywhere, but can't find it :/
Cipher
I don't at all mind hosting, i just don't know what my plans will be that weekend, although i could say i reserve the weekend, my parents will probably want me to come over (as usual ), or some other thing will interrupt my plans
So can't promise up until a couple days ahead
Cipher
EDIT; WOOOOOOPS!!! Didn't realise i had already posted in here, sorry for the double!! (And who removed the "delete post" option???, i'm sure it was available at one point o_O)
So what's the point guys for 29th september?
Well I'm just gonna extend the Flyabout to include Saturday and part of Sunday I reckon, on the weekend of 25th as it's also HD's 7th anniversary then too (aw). But like I said, I will need some help from you guys but it should be doable
I shall try, but again, no promises, sry!
EDIT; which weekend is this then? 26th-27th or 3d-4th?

Hey Cipher, I've come to the same idea as you independently haha
I'm going to organise a race event for the 26th-27th weekend. I've made a FB page here: https://www.facebook.com/events/849214518480044/
I'm hoping that people will get involved and for the offline wOs, be sharing times and records and stuff, for the two online ones i'm hoping to run some race meetups and tournaments. I'm looking for guys who can help me run this, is anyone interested?
Also, is it alright if I start a new thread with this information in the 1st post? Or would the forumites prefer we stick with this one? (I'd like to make a new one )
Make a new one in the Arena as it's specifically for an event
@Dread same answer as for Cat, i shall try, i'm not sure if i can make it yet
It's Cat's idea btw, i'm not taking the credit for it *shuvs cat in front*
