Finally i racedwith lolode1978
i lost.

After:

metropia forward rapier
modesto heights reverse flash
ubermall forward flash
vineta k reverse flash
combat zone syncopia 45
the amphiseum forward rapier

all weapons/br on, pa off

i lost 5-1. The only one i could win is the combat zone mode. the other ones were won by lolode1978 with 8-10 seconds. a really really great skill. very well played!

i enjoyed a lot playing this cup, and i look to get into another cup/league like this one.
see you later.

If he "refused" to race phantom races, it's him who should be disqualified because the opponent can choose whatever damn tracks and classes he likes.

Challenger #001
13th February 2011, 08:11 AM
From what I can tell from the French WipEout pages, imre92 said that bombel refused to race the Fury tracks, so imre changed Modesto to Vineta, but he stood firm on getting to race his own tracks on Phantom. But the final race was Rapier at Sol 2 for some reason. :/

He said that he wasn't happy with having to do Flash, nor for the final races to be 'russian roulette' Rapier. He said he would prefer the final event to be Modesto, Chenghou or Sebenco Reverse, real pilots' circuits, on Phantom. Frankly, I don't blame him.

Just played my Round 3 match with Aka-Sho. Was a GG, the phantom races in particular were quite close!

Amplificated vs Aka-Sho
Aka's tracks:
Metropia> (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stp9vnvYlkY), Phantom, Weapons On - Aka-Sho wins
Metropia< (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GovvvYykLJY), Phantom, Weapons On - Amplificated wins
Talon's Junction> (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYbFTLzBbKQ), Phantom, Weapons on - Amplificated wins

My tracks:
Tech De Ra> (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diysiVRwE0E), Venom, Weapons off - Amplificated wins
Tech De Ra< (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vivF3aieL0o), Venom, Green Race - Amplificated wins
Sol 2> (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgYe2m5YEEQ), Venom, Weapons off - Amplificated wins

Amplificated wins, 5-1! Good races; I was worried about this one :)

I've just been reading Imre92's posts at Arena.

It's the first time I've read a full report, I had only just got snippets of what was happening between these two in PSN messages when trying to get them to race.

I had contacted Imre92 and he said he had been trying to get Bombel2000 to race of several occasions, but that he had told him he either needed more practice, been too tired or too stoned.

It's only when I sent Bombel2000 a ultimatum of race within 7 days or lose by default that they raced.

It appears each won their respective selections, Imre92's were all Phantom even if they weren't the Fury tracks he wanted to race on, so it's a moot point if he was disadvantaged.
And Bombel2000 won all his Flash speed selections.

It's why the final deciding race which should of been Rapier>Anulpha Forward was changed to Rapier>Sol 2 that is the question of rule breech.
I don't know, but if they both agreed then I see no problem.

From what I'm reading it seems that Imre92's stance is that he feels that the slower speeds should not be allowed in the Cup generally, and that a true test of a pilots skill should be measured at Phantom speed alone.
This especially in the 7th and deciding race, which he feels should be Phantom on either Sebenco,Chenghou or Ubermall.

So I'll leave the result as it is, as I see this more as Imre92's problem with the actual HD CUP format rather than a problem with an opponent.

Why wasn't he able to race Fury tracks? Did his opponent not have the Fury add-on?

OBH
13th February 2011, 11:17 PM
I'd be surprised if he doesn't. You'd think if he didn't have fury he'd have mentioned that immediately?

I know that rules have been 'bent' already; many people have picked the same race type for all 3 choices, and in my own race accidently had Rapier>AP with no weapons, but Bombel2000 wanted Imre to change his track choices, speed class choices, and the default race?

Think I'll demand I can choose CP, CP, CP and default race CP in my next race if thats the case :) *sarcasm!*

It's lame that he had to change his track selections because of his opponents whining, but that stance about the speed class is total BS. Being able to keep a clean race line and eek out every millisecond of time in slower classes is as much a skill as getting around the tracks at phantom speed.

Even the fastest phantom pilots cannot do what texasalex can do at venom speeds.

By that logic, maybe the only true measure of a pilot skill is zone battle since that is technically where the fastest speeds will appear. It's a weak stance for competition.

JABBERJAW
14th February 2011, 12:27 AM
you have to compete by whatever the rules say, so he really didn't have to change the selection. If the other person refused, wouldn't those choices just be forfeits?

Jav
14th February 2011, 02:15 AM
If the guy made him change tracks simply because he didn't want to play them, HE is breaking the rules by simply refusing to play those tracks. It's silly, he's got nothing to do with the opponent's player's track choices (as long as they are according to the rules), and vica versa. If he was literally refusing to play unless the other player changed tracks, there's no question imo; disqualification.

amplificated
14th February 2011, 02:34 AM
ultimately it doesn't matter, since imre won all of his track choices anyway, and it seems a bit tedious to force them to play again. Imre should have been aware of the rules in the first place, yet he agreed at the time to play the match as it wound up being... so I think bw's assessment is fair.

Sorry, but no ! However doing some tricky BRs on slow classes requires as skills as doing hard tricks on phantom !

Not just the same skill, some of them are the hardest brs in the game imo :)

amplificated
14th February 2011, 12:03 PM
I think haiku's point was just that to get the top venom times, it takes a comparable amount of (different, if similar) skill as it takes to get top phantom times. Which is pretty much on the mark.

He just ended up wording it less than perfectly...

leungbok
14th February 2011, 01:47 PM
@OBH & Amplificated !
Some BRs on the flat on phantom are not that easy to do also ;) and with high speed they must be executed very quickly without losing the control of your ship ! Venom's BR are equaly hard to do because of the speed's lack, but you have some time to adjust your line, preparing your sideshift and recovering a decent line after the BR's boost.

kanar
14th February 2011, 05:44 PM
It reminds me Leungbok, Pirah did that one time, he recorded his hands when playing hd lol. I think we could compare the hands of texasalex & the hands of pirah, for eg, on a same track at their respective speed. Could be interesting. Each speed class is challenging anyway, each has its specialist, and it's a good thing.
Regarding imre, well as we said on the arena, he was kind enough to accept bombel's requests, but sadly the stuff ended imo like the russian roulette; as it has been said above or at the arena, the actual decider round format is not the perfect way to go, clearly something to think about for future events.

Finally, I'm really sad to see this wave of withdrawals. Really hope we'll have a perfect show after round 3. We must definitely go back to smaller stuffs after this one lol.

Result from The Hawks Division - 3rd Round

I had the pleasure of racing BillyC just minutes ago :)

His choices:
ZB Syncopia (Target 55): BillyC wins
I just knew it: Not a chance in hell, that I could perform in ZB. Most of the time I was just being impressed how fast BillyC got closer and closer to Zone 55! Nice colours, though :D
ZB Anulpha Pass FW (Target 55): BillyC wins
See above :D
Sebenco Climb FW (Phantom - Weps On - BR´s On - 5 laps): BillyC wins
A very close race - a 1 sec gap as far as I remember. (Made a stupid mistake!)

My choices:
Metropia FW (Phantom - Weps Off - BR´s Off - 5 laps): I win
After been participating in a psychedelic war, it was nice being home! :nod
Sol2 FW (Phantom - Weps Off - BR´s On - 5 laps): I win
See above.
Anulpha Pass REV (Phantom - Weps On - BR´s On - 5 laps): BillyC wins
Crushed by weapons, while humming "Give peace a chance!" :redface:

Anulpha Pass FW (Rapier - Weps On - BR´s On - 4 laps): I win
Just for the fun of it, we raced the 7th Race. Luck went my way: Lots of boosting!

A well deserved 4-3 win to BillyC - and a BIG grats from me! :+

VIDS up later this week/weekend - (Going away for a short holiday tomorrow)

Too bad about the commotion about Imre's match, but hey; when you agree about something in the end you will have to accept the outcome, no matter how stupid the reason might be! And about that, for me Wipeout is about speed, and I don't see any speed in venom and flash....and also not in rapier really, but whatever :+

And Sorry fellow wipers, I will go after the merlin overtime matches, haven't had much time and am a bit lazy also lol :p

DialgiX Vs Triboy

How to say it... Umm, I won't fly with DialgiX. Why? He's not taking this Cup seriously. I sended him couple messages - no answers. I understand that there is time difference between us (9h), but, BUT! I don't understand why he don't answer when he is online. I was online and noticed that he quits from psn, twice! I asked him why? And guess what. NO ANSWER! TWICE!

I don't wanna be judge in my own case, but I don't see any motivation from DialgiX.

No offence R3BU5ER but that's utter shite. Recently I've been watching a lot of videos made by people such as texasalex, and they're truly incredible. Wipeout isn't just about phantom, people have done things with the lower speed classes that defy belief, surely you can see that.

15th February 2011, 12:03 AM

all hard for different reasons..

On the subject of the rules, I like how they are, each one choose what most interests you about slow speeds, I personally like all, Wipeout is a racing game, all speed have diferent way to play, but for me for example for my green races no is wipeout, the weapons are for use, and if not play without weapons, it is my opinion, and now I remember a comment that said a player from here, players play slow speeds are not REAL PLAYER, comments do not share of course.

as far as i am concerned with withdraws its all down to individual reasons

some that i have heard are legitimate and understandable my best wishes go to those players..:)

others are just rubbish and unaceptable and disrespect the efforts of the organisers and Markus memory imo, some are just down to cowadice cos there not big enought to take a loss :turd

i would like to withdraw myself because i want to spend my time doing other things apart from wipeout but i wont quit till i have played all my games and help all the other players arrange and play there games..

remember this world cup is dedicated to Markus and also remember all the hard work many players have put into arranging this world cup not only Kanar but many others too who have helped with organising and videos and so and so

as kanar says its about taking part..lets face it i got more chance of winning the lottery without a ticket than winning the cup but i dont care i just play on and on and take part..

shame he never played them and played totally differnt tracks when we actually met and deliberatley lied to me

this guy tried to hustle me with zone battles and lied about track choice so he knew mine but i didnt know his and was hoping i wasnt a zone player either

and he picked

pro tozo zone battle.....jasmin won hahaha
syncopia zone battle..jasmin wins..haha
venom anulpha pass weapons on with ..jasmin wins

i picked

sebenco phantom weap off..jasmin wins
chengu reverse phantom weaps off..jasmin wins
vin k phantom weaps on..jasmin wins

decider i insisted on playing and i win and eliminated him too...:)

jasmin wins 7-0

thx for the good games skylar and being so sportsman like i enjoyed playing you when i get on a pc i will load up my vids.i tried to tell you on ps3 but your connection must have broke just after the last race..

From what I've read, there have been no direct insults traded within this thread at all. Many people are still bitter with the whole glitch issue (myself included, to an extent.)

The revelation of something as serious as this in a game which many people love is bound to start some fireworks. You do get +1 interwebz for being honest, however many people are a little miffed that the glitch was executed and then revealed, which has effectively scuppered the chances of a new WR and made a mockery of the amazing times made by the lower class pros such as texasalex.

I agree that you have received to much **** from this and I think it should stop. Anyone that is PM you is just embarrassing themselves. Is anyone really doing that though? You're just a kid, so you could probably do without an Internet forum ganging up on you, but then again I think secretly you are loving the attention from it all.

There's still this thing with people thinking you have a second account on here but I guess that isn't true as the Administrator would of spotted you had the same IP address. So we shouldn't worry about that one.

So is the PS3 not working or have you pulled out then, because you don't seem sure which. I always find it best to be truthful with people as lies don't sit well, when they find out.

My girlfriend bought me one for my birthday, a grey hoodie. Sadly Cafepress have fked it right up, the rear logo is also blown up and printed on the front, but it doesn't fit in the space allocated and is therefore clipped at either side. The top looks a mess and my girlfriend's emailed them, but hasn't received a reply.

Sorry, this clearly isn't the place to be moaning about this, and I'm sure it will get sorted. I'll be delighted when the right top arrives though, they look ace.

Hi all :)

I'm happy to announce the results of my 3rd round match with ericd7m.
eric whupped my @ss good style. it ended 6-0 to the ultra fast, and extremely pleasant French man.

I was doing so well in the warm up races just before our match, but my nerves got the better of me when it came to the crunch. Not to worry tho, it was a great meet. well I think so anyhoo lol

eric's choices:

All Phantom

Moa Rev/ Weapons Off
Uber Rev/ Weapons Off
Amphi rev/ Weapons On

and my choices:

All Phantom

TDR Rev/ Weapons Off
Uber Forw/ Weapons On
Sebenco Forw/ Weapons On

I should have known better than to choose Sebenco when racing eric, the guy has this track nailed.. i remember watching his TT vid on this track, very smoooth and extremely fast. ah well, it's academic now.
big thank you to eric, your a gent! :)

so here you'll find the playlist (http://www.youtube.com/user/TarquinFarqhuar#grid/user/6B627E52F4C1B8CB) for our match. hope you enjoy.

I made my match against QjonPL. Here are the results:

QjonPL's host:

Vinetak reverse 5 laps weapons on- QjonPL
Metropia reverse 6 laps weapons off- G-Superpilot
Sol2 reverse 6 laps weapons off- G-Superpilot

G-Superpilot's host:

Talon Junction forward weapons on- QjonPL
Talon Junction reverse weapons off- G-Superpilot
Modesto Heights reverse weapons off- G-Superpilot

G-Superpilot 4-2 QjonPL

Qjon is very fast, i was very nervous but I managed to control myself. It's harm because I think Qjon fell at the first corner on Sol2 reverse :( .
I filmed 5 of 6 races. Here for now Metropia reverse and Vinetak reverse :)

A simple question, if there are rules and deadlines are met, an hour is if you want, otherwise you leave, now I wonder what I have to wait to see who will be my third opponent?, I see that many are preparing for the fourth meeting, I made my second meeting on January 15 and now I do not know who is my third opponent, is simply absurd and disrespectful.

Sorry mate, it's probably my fault, I have made the mistake of thinking they could get it organised themselves. Expitarius has never replied to one pm I have sent him, but I think he is a moderator on the Arena (is that right?) so thought he would be very motivated, obviously not! Jfthebestjan has had more contact with me about it. I'll get it sorted today.

Thank you for your response KGB, you obviously do not have any guilt, God forbid that two people do not know how to organize a meeting for themselves :D
Jfthebestjan is my friend and I know that Expitarius asked several times but had no answers, I think its a big name who should be the first to give an example of reliability as a course for new riders, or simply let go the other, I hope this week to do my third meeting.

No problem Oliver you and others we are putting a great effort, utmost respect for you, the only comment if I may say so, is that when there is a rule should apply to less than exceptional cases (I mean real problems, not big names that you are expected), there is a date that would otherwise be no point in having a regulation, thanks to you for your time, I say great respect for you and others who are pursuing the best possible competition. :D

Well the latest is that I've heard nothing back from GAME but have left another message with them.

It doesn't look like much will come of that though, so I ordered the thermal paste I need to try and fix it myself. That's probably my last ditch attempt, as I'm not keen on buying a Slim. If that fails, then I guess I'll just leave the whole gaming thing behind and go get a girlfriend.

But I'm still trying anyway. If all the other round 3 matches get played and I'm not in a position to play then I'll pull out at that point I guess.

22nd February 2011, 01:35 PM
First of all, I want to once again apologise G-Superpilot for the delay and not even knowing my tracks of choice (I had really bad day then :? ).
Second, G deserved to win 6-0, because my performance was awful, the only wins were because of luck (getting missiles and quakes on Vineta K) and lag (first Talon race).
Third, that's right - I fell off the track on 1st lap of Sol2 :paperbag Haven't been playing online for over 2 months (except two days, when my network administrator let the ports be forwarded, but they were blocked again, so I ended up offline again; if anyone asks, I was playing my Cup races at friend's console :P <- blah blah, who cares about your excuses, bakayaro!) and that really makes a huge difference in handling (blah blah, you're simply weak - says my inner voice). I couldn't fit into AG-Sys nor FEISAR, Greg's performance was great, so I'm somewhat happy I didn't win and better pilot goes forward ;)

So now I'll have to travel to Tibet, find some Shaolin monastery, meditate a couple of months about my performance and come back when NGP's Wipeout is released to start everything from the beginning. See y'all then!

22nd February 2011, 06:43 PM

Me Peh-Hok just had our battle of the feisars. Great races with some tense moments.

Peh's choices where
Sebenco forward , my win.
Sebenco reverse, Peh wins. Very close , well won mate.
Metropia reverse, my win. Was very lucky twice here. Almost went head first into two bombs , one of which was my own.

My choices
Sol2, my win
TDR reverse, very close again. I fell off 1st lap i think, i pasted Peh somewhere. Not entirely sure how, and Peh still wins. Again, well won mate.
Chenghou reverse, my win.

Vids coming soon guys, but sadly on chenghou i'd forgotten to press record and recorded the text chat afterwards where i thought i'd stopped recording lol. Stupid fool:blarg

Ace won his two weapon tracks as he is extremly good with those type of races
Bazzman won his phantom races and performed extremly well on modesto with a super fast time.

Ill get the exact track choices when im on ps3

congrats on bazz for a good victory i think your gonna play greg next if i not mistaken.

Spinninggenius
27th February 2011, 09:11 PM
In the Hawk Section:

Klocki_Lego 4-1 Spinninggenius

My first match I actually played in the tournament and I went crashing out

Klocki's choices - all rapier, 4 laps, weapons on

Ubermall Forward - SG wins - I built up an early lead, but at the end of lap 2 got a missile weapon, I waited for klocki to take the lead then fired on him round a corner and won by 0.8 seconds

Chenghou Forward - Klocki wins - My win in race 1 proved to be a false dawn, hit the barrier round the outside of the second turn, and klocki pulled away from there. I couldn't tell from my screen, the winning margin was either 5 or 7 seconds

Chenghou Reverse - Klocki wins - see chenghou forwards!

SG's choices

Rapier, 4 laps, weapons on, Anulpha Pass Forwards - Klocki wins - Klocki got off to an early lead, but a succession of a quake and a speed boost meant we practically crossed the line together at the end of lap 2. Sadly I hit the back of his ship, lost momentum and lost 3 seconds in the first sector of lap 3, and finished about 4 seconds down in the end

Zone battle, to 20, tech de ra reverse - Klocki wins - that must have been the perfect zone battle drive, reaching 20 when i was just short of 12 - though I did have about 5 in the tank

Klocki took photos of all the races except race one, in which my time was 1.47.30, and Klocki's was 1.48.07.

Good luck to you in the rest of the tournament, whoever you face will be in for a tough match! :D

ROUND 2 OVERTIMES :
Merlin
Dobyblue Vs Il_mago_di_doz

I feel bad about being the only ROUND 2 match left to play. I was away in Florida for a while on family vacation with my wife and 7 month old daughter and so I was without a PS3, then I was supposed to play Mago this past Saturday…he was ready but unfortunately we still haven’t been able to move back into our frikkin’ house yet because our slow-as-fark contractor still hasn’t finished renovating our farking bathroom, despite the work starting on FEB 5th!!! As such I’ve been at me mum’s place since returning from Florida…and totally forgot that Saturday morning I was supposed to drive to my house and get the PS3 up and running for a 10AM GMT-5 match with Mago (4PM GMT+1). All my stuff is covered up and unplugged while the work is being done, because I don’t want all that drywall crap getting into my speakers, AV receiver, turntable, PS3, etc., etc.

Because of the difference in time it’s not particularly easy to play in the evening for me, because 7pm would be early in the morning for Mago. Perhaps next year if there’s another cup we could make time zones more of a consideration?

Anyway, due to these circumstances I think it’s only fair that I reluctantly forfeit to Mago so that ROUND 3 matches can continue. I'm not even sure if we'll be back in by this week-end. Mago has been very patient and totally hospitable, which I appreciate.

Don't take this offensively dobyblue but the way you say "farking" makes me giggle, reminds me of Trailer Park Boys. Do you say "aboot" too? :lol

dobyblue
28th February 2011, 09:13 PM
LOL - no offense at all. I'm from Sussex (1973~1980), grew up in the Cayman Islands (1980~1993) but went to boarding school for a while back in the UK, been in Canada since 1993. So I probably say "eh" a lot and sound Canadian these days, but don't say aboot, haha.

But TPB are hilarious. Not on the same plane as Only Fools and Horses though.

I just didn't want to see ****ing *'s all over the place. :)

On Sunday, my adventure with the tournament ended. Unfortunately, in this duel could be only one winner. Fyue was quick as light, I was slow as ketchup, in addition, I made too many costly mistakes.

Fyue3 - triboy 4-2

Thank you for what you wrote JF.

Today for me it was a really unfortunate event, but this does not detract from your skill, for me WO is only phantom race, surely you're a pilot for more comprehensive as it is structured now the cup.

Hey everybody, I just wanted to tell you that my brother(IDReaper) got into a car accident today. He didn't break any bones or anything, but he can hardly walk by himself. I'm just letting the WO community know for him; he told me that he was supposed to do the match 1 or 2 days ago. Anyways, I'll let you guys know about any changes. (He's out of the hospital, by the way.)

P.S. It was a T-Bone accident. Basically, the front of my brother's car hit the side of another. It was at about 45 mph.

Hello again. He's doing alright and is resting. I'm sure he'll get be o.k., though. It sounded kind of scary when he described what happened. The cars hit pretty hard, and he said gas was leaking everywhere so he had to drag himself out of the car. Luckily, there were police nearby, so he was helped quickly. Anyways, I thank you all for caring.

Zero3Growlithe's tracks:

Chenghou Project Fwd - Phantom - Wep On: Zero3Growlithe
(easy way, just going forward... almost been hit by rockets on 1st lap:blarg)

Sol 2 Fwd - Phantom - Wep On: Zero3Growlithe
(... easy way)

Sebenco Climb Fwd - Phantom - Wep On: Zero3Growlithe
(god, that was horible from my point of view, raced like drunk or something {nervous:bomb})

Bombel2000's tracks:

Vineta k fwd - Flash - Wep On: Bombel2000
(i've shoot him with rockets on first lap, then got hit by missile, passed by bombel, and catching bombs and mines was the only thing that was left for me)

Moa Therma fwd - Flash - Wep On: Bombel2000
(i've been completely f***** up here, he was catching boosts, me {as always} bombs that fallen from his... back)

Ubermall fwd - Flash - Wep On: Zero3Growlithe
(damn, he's going to win, he's going to WIN.... nooo, i won:rock. Epic battle one passed another and inversely. Missiles, quakes, bombs, mines, rockets... everything what you can imagine on your way, but then you get's boost and... sayonara:rock)

Thanks for race (during warm up i though that would be easy). Too bad i didn't recorded it... damn camera...

Have done all that l can to contact drr 1984. We had contact with our track choice. He promised me to play during this week. He has been on the forum several times not responding on my messages.
SO l'm gonna hang in there until something happens.

Eagle update:

ShawnFrecle Vs SaturnReturn 4-3

What a close match! Saturn did a great job in the three races weapon off, 10 laps, he's surely faster than me in these races. 2 to 1 for him.

Then 2 races weapon on, and we have a tie, 1-1.

Last race of my choice was a zone battle, and I won the race.

Before the last race the result was 3-3.

On anulpha rapier, everything happened... I fell off the track at the end of lap 1, with a turbo, I've taken a bomb, miles and I've absorbed a quake... But I had some turbos, and another quake, and at the beginning of last lap we were close. Before the last straight, I've taken a missile, and I shoot. Sat had a turbo to use, but unfortunately he fell off the track.

I was very lucky in the last race, I feel sorry because he has demonstrated to be in better condition of speed than me.

However, thanks for your kindness and for these great races with a wonderful pilot like you Saturn :)

well done shawn a fantastic win
sympathy to saturnreturns who must have played just as fantastically to go to a decider with anulpha roulette

just happens that things just dont work out..one pad or error can end the best player just like that

shawn i am your next opponent... we can play soon i hope you go easy on me and let me win a few so i look like i did well..:)

7th March 2011, 10:54 PM
Here is the video:

SaturnReturn vs. ShawnFrecle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxpzCrf8mKE)

And here is my messy account for now:

Metropia: The combo of this track and the Zone Battle made this feel like an impossible task for me. It's one of my worst tracks. I couldn't go into this match feeling like I had no chance so I practised by trying to match yeldar's Avalon times. I failed, but I did get within 0.1 seconds on my best laps so was confident I could give ShawnFrecle a run for his money, even though he has almost matched yeldar's Phantom TT time. Well the practice certainly paid off on this one.

Sol 2 rev: This could have gone either way. It's not my strongest track but not one of my weakest on a good day. Luckily it went my way.

Chenghou forward: I didn't really want to pick this because I have actually lost the knack of this track recently. Can't seem to get into a groove. However, I didn't want to keep relying on Chenghou Rev weps off races either. Poor shield management let me down here, but I really didn't imagine my shield would be so low already on lap 5.

Amphiseum: Well I messed up straight away. I should have been more confident if I was going to win it and not wasted a boost on avoiding the shortcut. Still, we were both very close at that point and SF took the shorty too, so there could have been a horrible mid-air collision otherwise.

Ubermall: One of my better tracks generally online, but also one that most people enjoy. This race was as close as all the others.

Chenghou Zone Battle: I didn't really put a lot of effort into this at the start as I just can't do these at all. Trying to play ZB properly always gives me a headache, so I decided to just make it round the course and see what happened. I did enjoy sweeping around that long left hander while stuck firmly to the track though. That was fun.

Anulpha Pass Rapier Decider: I'll let this one speak for itself. My last move is a silly one, but in a split second I figured it was either that or get rammed off the edge anyway, so I went for it. Can you say FAIL?:P

Overall I really enjoyed this. It was very close throughout and am glad to go out on what I consider to be a high. I get to give you guys some great close racing to watch as well, which I disappointingly failed to do against Ace3 in the Avalon Cup. I'm also pleased as all this was with the analogue stick, which I'm still getting used to, and was after a forced hiatus of a few weeks, so I feel I can definitely make that transition to stick permanently now and not have to put up with d-pad related RSI that I had been suffering - which means I can keep playing the game, and this match brought back some of the enjoyment I'd lost, so I definitely want to continue.:)

Good luck to ShawnFrecle for the rest of the competition. I'm glad to have lost to someone both super fast and super friendly.:+

Thanks to all organisers, especially for patience with my PS3 break down.

Good luck to everyone else and I hope you can all maintain commitment until the very end so that the competition gets the result it deserves.

If I think Eric is fine to play Thursday at 10pm.
Only one thing I did not understand, have been eliminated: I responded to erich, I also do not seem to be the only race of the third round ...

What's that mean DJTechno? Please don't tell me you didn't know you were playing IDReaper. He said the match was arranged before he had his car accident.

Techno hasn't lost a race yet.

I really need to have a good look through the other boards as I haven't a clue who is in or out.

Thanks for the races to erich123.
The result does not reflect the course of events, all very hard fought and at times where my luck has prevailed.
Eric is truly a great driver, and I thank him again for being with me after I did it wait so long.
Olivier thank you again which is always kind and courteous to wait for these races and to respond to messages.

drr1984

Congratulation to dr1984 for his win.
Was many close races and good fights. 3-4 of the races there were only a second or less that seperate us. So could really gone both way;)
So good luck in the next round drr1984:)

Sol 2 Reverse, Phantom, 5 Laps, Weps Off - Dark_Phantom_89 Won

Default Race (changed to Phantom speed by mutual agreement.)
Anulpha Pass Forward, Phantom, 5 Laps, Weps On - Dark_Phantom_89 Won

FINAL SCORES: Dark_Phantom_89 4 - 3 CHRIS-_REDFIELD

COMMENTARY:

I filmed the event, so you'll be able to see what I'm talking about here, but I thought I'd give a little commentary anyway. This was the closest 1 v 1 I've EVER had and I was so nervous throughout.

Sebenco Climb Forward: I was absolutely terrible at this, despite being alright at it when I was practicing earlier. I missed a ton of BR's, scraped walls and hit bomb after mine time and time again. Win for Chris.

Sol 2 Reverse: Again, I made a few mistakes and got hit by lots of weapons. I fired off a quake, but Chris had a shield so just surfed over it. Once you're hit, you can't catch up and this was certainly true for me in this case. Win for Chris.

Sebenco Climb Reverse: Being 2-0 down at this point really piled the pressure on for me. It was neck and neck with constant position changes up until Lap 3 when Chris eliminated himself in the tunnel. Win for me.

Vineta K Reverse: Had an almost flawless run here, almost beating yeldar's Avalon record in the process. Win for me.

Sol 2 Forward: The lag started to kick in here and there was plenty of ramming going on from both sides. I was rammed in Lap 2 or 3, so Chris pulled away. I managed to catch him up, but couldn't quite pass him before the finish line. Final result was a Photo Finish in Chris' favour. Win for Chris.

Sol 2 Reverse: I was a bag of nerves in this one, as I knew that one more win for Chris would mean the end of my time in the HD Cup. Chris pulled off to an early lead and maintained it for the first 2 or 3 laps until I was able to overtake him at the sharp left turn. Win for me.

Anulpha Decider: Chris asked if we could change the speed to Phantom and I agreed. The so-called "lottery track" meant all or nothing for both of us. He pulled off to an early lead until I got a boost. After dodging some mines laid by him, I used the boost at the beginning of Lap 2 and boosted over him. I was able to hold him of after that and go on to win the race. Win for me.

I'd like to thank Chris for the races and for being extremely polite and friendly throughout, not to mention an amazing pilot. You have no idea how nervous he made me feel in this one. I'd even go as far to say that Italy are now the strongest WipEout nation overall.

excellent commentary in the dark you have been phenomenal and Vineta rew rew sol2 and I could give my best to beat in the final sol2 FRW only 25 cents are clear, unfortunately, my regret and my failing race in which they exploded sebenco rew
I am very disappointed but I already knew it was a balanced game and difficult outcome in the final race you have been good and the nerves are sure you will go far

I knew it would be a great challenge between two drivers phenomenal, in fact the result proves it! Congratulations to DP, why go through with Chris right now is a great result!
DP thanks for the compliments to the team Italy, which last year soared, with the addition of a true talent as I've seen a few like Skrotos32!

Btw just looked at the whole tournament table, and to be fair the left side of the table looks a lot stronger than the right side.

My prediction is that the winner will be a player that's on the left side of the table (DP, Yeldar, Luna or IDReaper)

I'm posting this again here seeing as I think it's relevant to both the videos thread and the HD Cup thread. Hope that's alright?

Here are the videos from the HD Cup match I had today with CHRIS-_REDFIELD. I filmed a bit further away from the TV this time so you should be able to see a bit more of the 60fps goodness.

CHRIS-_REDFIELD's Choices:
Sebenco Climb Forward - Weps On (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Agdvp5oVLE)

Sol 2 Reverse - Weps On (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoSpjnWTmZs)

Sebenco Climb Reverse - Weps On (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nvx_VMXZiTY)

Dark_Phantom_89's Choices:
Vineta K Reverse - Weps Off (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9r4o1NdkFA)

Sol 2 Forward - Weps Off (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hm0c5T12oUc)

Sol 2 Reverse - Weps Off (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ypg-F6rcHbs)

Default Race:
Anulpha Pass Forward - Weps On (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWkSSpjAHAk)

Now you can see how intense it was. Thanks again Chris for the awesome races. :rock

I think this was the second best match I've seen so far in the wohd cup.
The first one was saturn vs shawn, maybe I prefer that one because a team-mate won it :p

Big compliments to both DP and Chris, this was a likely early final in my books :)
And a special thanks to DP for his compliments to the team Italy, good luck with next rounds ;)

AiiR's choices All Flash

Uber FW Wep on (Luna)
Sebenco Rev Wep off (Luna)
Uber Rev Wep on (Luna)


Final Result 0-6

Vids on my channel tomorrow.

Well what can i say,i knew this would be a cat and mouse kind of thing.
After the phantom races i was kind of happy with my performance,i knew
that i would be very hard to win a race and i wasnt expecting something at all.

Then we did my tracks at my favorite speedclass Flash
I knew that my only change to win some races would be to slow speed down
so that its coming down to more luck with boost that decide the winner.
But i wasnt able to perform and didnt reach my normal capacity at all,sad to say i did so many misstakes and now i feel sad i messed up so badly these races.


But Luna handled flash excellent and won the wep off race bigtime

I dont mind loosing to a top pilot as Luna and i wish her the best further on in the cup.
We had a great time chatting and it was a pleasure racing her.

Big thanks Luna! :)

I would also like to thank Kanar for this event, the raptors and all the new friends ive met along the way :clap
