I think Bazzman32 wants to sign up if you check the comments on Connavar's Site. Not sure what his circumstances are so that he can't post himself. :o

thanx for the info Woop, just sent him a pm. Ok line up status updated, I'll update the board matrix tomorrow. Up for some Black Ops now lol.
can someone ask brmmpha, infinity or emily anderton if they want to compete..they may not know about world cup all of them are good players and might want to show off their skills in the world cup..
thx
Well I have submitted novide and my work. I will let the organizer present it :g
Thanks novide (And sorry JJPAP I tried doing my idea that we talked about but it didn't look good IMO in the end so I scrapped it, but thanks anyways :)) Also thanks to a friend who helped me a good deal (He's not on this forum.)
I'm still gonna work on it some more but it's near final. I just have to figure out a way to make this all work under 50KB for the main post if it's possible without it being too ugly. It just has to be functional.
My heart dropped when I saw my group, I'm pretty sure I won't survive round one. But then again, looking at all the other groups they are equally bad! Killer lineup! :eek
What does the numbers after some of the names mean?
oh numbers in the matrix are just people who didn't take their red pill yet (read didn't answer to my pm lol). Btw mic as Jav said a few days ago; 1/4 to pick a seeded player, 3/4 to get an unseeded. But yeah everyone looks like :mr-t in this cup lol. Darkdrium that's great news, right on schedule! Thanks for the awesome job.
Oh god, that means there'll be more of them... :D
Really looking forward to this one!
eh eh, & I just had a look at Darkdrium's board..... :+:+:+:+:rock:rock:hyper
OMG this is professional stuff. I'll add it here soon, but first, the fkin job lol.
Will there be a WO Cup next year, im thinking of applying im not a great player. im decent and wins against some pro's, next year ill be epic :rock (hopefully)
uuuuurrrrgh mate. I could say "never say never" but well not for me. I felt I couldn't retire without organising a grand finale with all my friends, but I didn't realise the massive amount of work that had to be done for that lol. Darkdrium warned me, but to my mind 256 was so cool... It is. But woah this is really huge, need constant attention, coordination wth the others at the command center, endless hours spent sending pms/mail/updating stuffs... Crazy thing, and tbh the wife is hating you guys already lol. So another cup is a no go for me. And there's the fact lots of the registered pilots are on the same line as me, I mean it's their wipeout grand finale too (gt5 is coming lol). I suggest you to join us on this one mate, you won't regret it, and tbh there's all level playing fields, I'm sure you could get through round 1.
my group (merlin cloud) looks badass :D
yeah all these parts of the board are full of uber skilled pilots. Blackwiggle just sorted out the seeded player order in their groups, I'll do my best to replace all these ugly matrix board pics with Darkdrium's board today. Should be up late in the night, but I'll do my best.
I wish i could join, im rank 22 which is dodgy but rank means nothing upon skill
(quote from wizardplay)
If i can join the Cup sign me in! but im not awesome
Heheh, please do join and don't feel bad. I'm far from being good at it, and I'm in!
@Mr.Phlanj: LOL...yes, that Merlin cloud. I'm going to need Merlin's help to win a race!
yea im confused how do ya join it,
I believe kanar will send you a PSN message with the rules and you'll need to confirm that you accept them.
Welcome to the zone, by the way!
Thank you very much 8) But How do i know i will get it because i guess there will be other pending responces i guess, Kanar doesnt know im joining (i think)
He checks this thread out a lot so if you don't get a confirmation PM via the PSN soon, send him a message to his PSN account and he should get back to you soon thereafter.
I confirmed to partecipate in page 15...
I went out few weeks, and I see my name is still under "pending confermation"... :(
I'd love to partecipate :)
heeey, the fkin guys in charge of the firewall at my job blocked definitely my access to wz this morning lol. newgroups/games category GAH. Of course djm1zw1z, I'm signing you in & I'll update the whole stuff tonight anyway. Mago, just answer to the pm I sent you on the ps3, that's why you're still pending. I asked you all some basic infos & sent you the detailed rules in attachment, just answer this pm & you're definitely in.
EDIT : Ok I just made a massive update first post, finally got rid of the insane code & detailed the board matrix wth all the names of the pilots. Blue pill = not confirmed yet. Red pill = ready to fly.
And of course the beauty right here :

Just click on your part of the board, & you'll find all the seeds position. MASSIVE THANKS TO DARKDRIUM777 HERE, this is the sexiest board ever.
fantastic board...credit to DD for a brilliant piece of work..
to all other raptors (the guys/girls who have 32 players each to help out)
I have started up a new group (eagle cloud group)
all its members have been contacted by me who belong here the other will be contacted tommorow.
http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/group.php?groupid=61
purpose is to help in organising and making world cup easier
have a look at it.
perhaps create your own group too if it helps you too organise
way I see it is when the cup starts this thread is going to be bombarded and if each group has their own page the raptor can feed all results and information to kanar just to make things a bit better.
just thought i would share...if anyone needs some ideas
many thxs
That a VERY sexy looking board right there.
Falcon...I like it! :g
Yes, the board is excellent! 8) Great job DD (and kanar of course).
I wonder who I'll have to face off against in the Hawk group...
Bloody hell, you'll be lucky to get out of the Merlin group! :O :)
Awesome, I'm one of the Vulture groups :D!
People have seen the big one?
http://b.imagehost.org/t/0704/WipEou...ndComplete.jpg
novide - background, logo (+ panda head?)
kantham - making the background compatible for me (GIMP doesn't do well with .psd files :g)
me - name fields, lines, layout, etc. :D
hmm ill only be able to race my bro if HE makes it to the semi final but i wont be holding my breath for him :P
as for me, kanar should slap a "reserverd for Mr Phlanj" on the 1st place spot :g
edit: nice one dark, novide and kantham :+ it looks sic
Sweet, hawk group
Wow!, nice set up!!
Btw, my wife ordered me to play HD instead of MotorStorm!:cold, if I don`t?, she will punished me severely:cold!!!
stevie:paperbag
So great looking, DD!!! :+
Heey thanks for the feedback guys & gals! Yeah sorry DD777, it was 3am when I finished so I forgot to show the big One. Also I would like to thank you once again, & of course thank kantham for me too. Yeah Panda head is from novide lol, our talented official wohd cup graphic designer eh eh.
Glad you like the boards guys. Next step is to color all the names in red eh eh. Oh and Oryx_Crake (& me when I'll have time) will see what could be done regarding the future challonge board (2nd board visual at challonge.com); maybe it will be possible to add yt links to vids for eg.
Oh I forgot, would like to thank already Jasmin for taking her Raptor duty so seriously lol. As we said, communication will be the key to success so my fellow Raptors don't hesitate to motivate your troops for the cup, by any mean necessary ah ah. Jeez havn't played HD 'til my defeat against Luxo lol. Hope I'll find time for some speed lap today.
Great work! :clap
My end is nigh
That board is AMAZING. So well designed and professional looking - massive kudos to all of you guys. :clap
I'm really looking forward to this.
yeah I was seriously stuned when I saw the final result (the work in progress was already badass, but now OMG). Btw guys, please report any errors in the board compositions or whatever. It was sooo late yesterday when I finished, some copy/errors gremlins are maybe still hidden there. I forgot to report Constrictor4u in his Kestrel group for eg. (fixed), I forgot to register TarquinFarqhuar (he said yes sept 26 gah) and hopefully it's fixed too. But yeah my brain has been really overclocked with the cup these past few days (OMG the drawed numbers transformed to names, took fkin ages) so I hope everything's ok now.
Hi, as I did not follow the complete rules decision process and did not find anything on why eliminator is not allowed (when both opponents have fury add-on) during the cup, is there anyone from the steering committee who is able to clarify - for me ;) ?
btw, rules are ok and no Eliminator is ok w/ me, too. Though a 1 vs.1 eliminator is quite interesting, needs good skills and tactics and is not as quake dependent as in 4+ player races.
Excellent stuff guys:+
Board looks brilliant.
Hopefully once this is over, we can have the big board saved with all the results somewhere on wz for all eternity :)
The big one really shows off the scale of the tournament your trying to achieve :clap
p.s
On a personal note, i like that the 1st seeded players i may come up against are kingheim then JJPAP or TCK.
Wipeout oldies ftw :beer
In my opinion Eliminator games completely ruin the flow of a good 1v1 session. Takes ages and it's dull, imo. :)
@stin
LOL! You better listen to cool lover, she knows what she's talking about...
go go team stindah
To be honest constrictor, we talked a lot about that (eliminator mode), and well we chose to stay on the racing style. ZB integration created already a lot of controversy lol, although it's a fantastic mode, requiring the same amount of skills as single races. I'm not saying eliminator requires no skills, it's just about what I said above, as for the avalon cup, we decided to stay on the racing basis. But, there's still the gentleman's agreement "hidden rules". Not written, but if you're falling against someone you know well, and if you guys are both ok; you're free to customize the default settings like; you're both up to tweak the gameplay, adding some green races or eliminator? go for it. But only if you're both ok. Any other case ===> Default settings aka single race weapons on, single race weapons off, zone battle.
