OK, Kanar, you advertised on Gamespot forums yet? We might be able to get some pilots from there? I'm on my way to try out now...
Just seen that you guys have already posted there...my bad!

eh eh yes UB3R, we almost advertised everywhere. There's still around 20 (30 if we're counting the very helpful waiting list) pilots to find, hope we could get 'em, as there's still around 2 months before the start.
Say,U3BR,did you update the second document in the first post? I'm asking because,well,I'm not in it.But this can be ignored if you don't want to update it.
entry n°193, FEISAR-CSY mate. I know, huge list, hard to spot your psn ID there.
I'd very much like to participate if there is room for a humble old swede!
(PSN id Mr_L07H4R )
Looking forward to this!
Sure mate, & welcome to the monster cup ;)
18 slots, and we're only on October... What a work !
Soon the list will be complete. 256 players, one winner. And i don't know how many matches with fun ^^ !
Kanar, it's an amazing achievement ! \o/
Looking brilliant so far mate! I'll be picking up an HD-PVR in the near future so I can record some of the races :)
:beer:beer:beer:beer:beer:beer:beer:beer:beer:beer :beer For KANAR:clap
Yep, kudos man. Done a great job setting this up, and with only 18 slots left and 2 months to go, there's absolutely no doubt we're gonna have 256 pilots come December.
Great work!
aww thx guys; but it's a common project, lots of people implicated (hopefully lol) so far in this crazy stuff. As I said, just wanted to reunite you all, & we're about to make it all together.
So massive thanks to ONlock, R3BU5ER, Novide, Nutcase:259, DP89, SaturnReturn, Kyonshi, JJPAP, Leungbok, Ace3cube, kaori, OBH, triboy, Darkdrium777, unctuous, blackwiggle, aka-sho, challenger001, kgb1971, Fyue, Jasmin-jade, Zoth-Ommog, IDReaper, Rob, Jav, UB3R, Yeldar, kat-kun... you guys rocked the command center so far.
just a quick note to thank kat-kun for this http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/pic...380551&thumb=1
It will be your "official" wipeout HD cup ID card ;)
fantmusik still isnt in the list is he? :(
Yeah I'm kinda disapointed by the number of Japanese registered at the cup. I think we did our best to advertise em, aka-sho made a good cup news on his website, lots of us sent pms to almost all the well-known Japanese pilots... Our last hope there is Ace3cube now lol. He's on his way to make a last try to bring em back. December is clearly a big business month I admit, but hey 30mn of wipeout in 3 weeks, I think it's something you can schedule almost easily.
Ok as I told you I'll launch the confirmation registration process real soon, just practicing a little bit more for my avalon cup Terminator round then I'll send you all your cup ID card in the end, & the rules & regulations in extended version (c)SaturnReturn ;) (jpeg format, pm attachment). We're right on schedule for everything, which is damn good.
So -17 slots right now, hope some well known psn IDs will change their mind & join us before the end of registrations. For the record!
Kanar, did your wife help you do all the work for you or she must be totally demented by all this Wipeout Cup!!!:hyper
She must be loving you alot! lol A wipeout widow;)
stevie:g
LOL! Nah she doesn't help, oh sometimes she's helping me with the english language (english teacher), but tbh wipeout sounds rubbish for her. And she can't understand why I'm spending that time here or preparing crazy stuffs like that lol. She's a Tetris fan on iphone though, which is funny as she doesn't play videogames in general. Should put a vid of her on my yt channel lol, she's really good! But her sister is even better ah ah. Watch out for the upcoming tetris cup lol.
Ok, let's once again make a little update about the cup.
Present Day---------------------------------------->> End of nov. or before
Confirmation registration process : I'm going to send you all a confirmation pm in order to validate your registration. You'll have to answer & share some basic infos (nationality, timezone, fury or not fury) then I'll send you back a cup ID card with these basic infos registered. You could for ex. share this card with your opponent, during the 1st contact. As it's a huge number of data to process, I'll begin very soon, even if registrations are not complete yet.
In the same time, we'll try to sort out the seeded player list.
early dec------------------------------------------------------------>>dec.20
As soon as we'll have all the -confirmed- 256, we'll draw lots. The board will remain secret a few days lol, time for each raptor to add as a friend all the pilots in their managed board.
Playstation home wipeout museum ceremony will take place mid. december, and boards will be revealed during the party. Then, a few hours laters, you could check the board here at wz too. And finally, a few days after (48h max), you'll get a psn pm roadmap for your 1st round.
CUP COMMUNITY MANAGERS aka THE RAPTORS ARE : Kanar, JJPAP, KGB, Jasmin, Blackwiggle, triboy, R3BU5ER, UB3R~JKP
===> They will contact you early December, just after we made the board
===>They will send you the "official" wipeout hd cup chatbox invite
===> Each CCM will be in charge of 31 pilots, in the 8 parts of the global board. You'll have to add him in your friendlist, & report any results/troubleshooting to him directly.
==> Prize section to be sorted soon. There will be prizes, sure thing lol. Working on some medal stuffs, like the olympic games, with novide. The official T-shirt is actually designed by nutcase, for Rob's cafepress wipeoutzone store.
==> Well, nothing more in mind for now lol. Oh yes, Many many many thanks for joining this incredible journey in World Of Wipeout!!!
um kanar, where do i post track info, im finding it hard to understand the instructions on the first page of the thread.
mmm kat-kun, rules & regulations are pretty simple, honestly.
Could be summed up like that :
You pick 3, your opponent picks 3, no eliminator, then if needed you go to race 7 chosen by me (same for everyone in the cup btw).
SaturnReturn prepared a detailed version of the rules & regulations, & I'll send it to you all with the registration confirmation pm. Hope I cleared up your mind mate, & big thanks for the nice set of cup ID card btw :clap
no prob. cant wait to see who im racing in the first round (plz let it not be you or im screwed. haha)
Remind him i slowed down to shoot him, get him riled up :):+
I think I've recruited a player named skrotos32. I pointed him in this direction to register, but could you send him an official invite please kanar?
Cheers.
this is sounding more awesome by the minutes. Kanar I wish to kiss you. (but not in a gay way)
aww thanks mikrucio lol. But really it's team working there; this afternoon I lost the entire participant list with a stupid copy/paste & hopefully Saturn was here with a back-up lol. So yeah I'm thankful to have big supports from all over the world in this wipeout adventure. And you all, ready to run the show this December eh eh.
edit : new board design by darkdrium777 is really sexy!
can i see the board design, im very curious
The board design will be a much bigger version of this one.

ah ok, no surprise there kanar's definately gonna win tha Avalon cup
I somehow doubt it looking at the opposition. ;)
You obviously haven't come up against those who are still left in the tournament apart from Kanar.
Check the names against post made in the videos thread for an idea of what sort of ruthless racers these guys are.
yeah, kanar will definitely be kicked out 1st round ah ah. will give me more time to manage the cup lol. Blackwiggle, the board is actually designed by Darkdrium (work in progress), and it's fkin amazing so far. Professionnal stuff, you'll see that soon enough guys ah ah.
That was you 1500 post! :clap
I've done the same thing today, he was very happy to join in :) I'm going to post him the link on his profile
In the next days I'll ask someone else to partecipate... I know a couple of very talented italian guys, and I think they would be interested in this new amazing challenge ;)
Nice initiative Storm, and there's possibly more than 15 slots left anyway; I'll have a clue as soon as I'll launch the registration confirmation process. And we need a waiting list too, as for last cup; Was really useful last time, as there will be probably last minute withdrawals during the first round.
Thanks, and all of 'em in an awful english :blarg
have still to race kanar, but looking at his TT and SL times he's fkin fast. no way ill be able to beat him if i come up against him in the WoHDC.
Practice practice practice have fun practice have fun practice.
All you need, just sit back and let it happen :g
thats what im doin atm. still dont think im fast enough for top 10 like kanar
lol funny young man. I don't remember any TT from my part lol, as I'm just a speed lap junkie. And shhhhh no no me in the rankings? no not me certainly not. I'm just a poor boy lost in the matrix, no more. There's definitely HUNDREDS of pilots far better than me dude. Practice practice practice YEARS practice practice. Patience. And don't forget the real world btw. Wipeout is just a game. Stay safe, stay fast, as my mate sinus1 said to me lol
LOL Kanar! Bad English? Before I met you I wasn't even aware that Frenchmen COULD speak English ;) And Kat-kun... Don't be too afraid of the rankings....I mean Ã* tt and sl is totally different Then Ã* online weps off race with another fast pilot breathing down your neck :) Not even speaking of Ã* weps on online race. Strange things can happen there. There are chances for all! Lol :).
EDIT: got Ã* message from il_nik he's in!
