post removed
I'm going to try and make a full day of this if I can. I really want to relieve the good old days with my "crew" and have the banter that we used to. DE, Oryx, Unc, Woop, Nut, I expect to see you all there! :g
oh darn it, i wont be able to part take at all, it starts at 10pm here in new zealand and ends at 10am, ill have to give this a miss then :( :brickwall
No chance of getting up early in the morning for a few races?
very unlikely, but ill try xD
Regarding times for the two tournaments taking place, how about...
Flash Tournament - 4.00pm GMT
HRC Vs AG-Systems - 7.00pm GMT.
Just a suggestion, I'm easy to be honest. I'll be around all day, so you guys let me know when you're available and we'll sort something out.
Could the Flash tournament take place one hour later, at 5:00 pm GMT? I won't be at home before 4:45 GMT or so.
That's fine with me Oli, is everybody else ok with a 5pm (GMT) start for the flash tournament?
In case you've forgotten you're taking part the other players for this one are Bazzman32, Rennfisch, D_1998_BR, Oryx_Crake, LJTheZombie and morfeo378.
I'll send some PSN messages tonight just in case :)
Hmm okay, how about 9pm? I probably won't be around much after 10pm because my fiance will get home from work, and despite my protestations she thinks 12 hours of Wipeout is "enough for anyone". Or we could do it earlier in the day, I really don't mind, but I've provisionally scheduled a Bling Brigade room for 3pm.
bad news lads! my controller finally broke! T.T alas I am now controllerless... oh well rotten old heap anyway my old one but still that meansunless I can find a replacement by then I'm pretty much out on saturday.
I'll be around for banter and moral support though :)
Damn, that's a real shame Oryx, Unlucky mate. Mine went last week too, I'd only had it a few months. Luckily I'd just been paid so I could afford to fork out for another. Hope you can borrow one or something.
I'll try to stop by sometime tomorrow, I have been absent due to some ****ed up stuff last 2 months, but things are more quiet ATM. C'yall tomorrow :)
I got to borrow a controller from a mate so I'm set. also I apparently have a working mic so voice chat is a definite possibility for me :) see ya there chaps.
Superb, really glad you're both going to make it :+
Never thought about voice chat to be honest, definitely something worth trying though. I don't have a mic but they're not much are they? I'll try and get one for next time.
On a slightly less positive note I'm absurdly rusty at Phantom. Haven't really touched it since the last Ozone and my efforts the last couple of days have been appalling. Not looking forward to HRC Vs AG-Systems at all :paperbag
It's a shame but mics work extremely bad in Wipeout. I just tried once and it was horrible, couldn't understad anything and there was a very disturbing echo all the time.
And don't worry Col, you are not the only one rusty at phantom, I'm not playing very much lately and to make things worst I see blurry with my eyes now so I can't practice. The doctor said that the bloody eye drops effects would disappear this morning but here I'm, f***** blind :lol
I just hope I can play tomorrow.
Argh, what's all that about Oli?!?
Re: the voice chat I assumed Oryx was on about some kind of VOIP thing rather than the PSN chat.
no no well there is that too there is of course skype and mumble but there is a specific voice and video chat function built into the ps3 software that actually works rather well. whether you can play while using it on the other hand I dont know.
it's worth mentioning though that it is worlds removed in quality from the ingame voice chat of wohd... it actually works, for one.
I didn't know that there was that possibility Oryx, that's cool. Anyway, my spoken english is not good enough to maintain a normal conversation so I will remain away from that :redface:
Col, it's nothing important but it's pissing me off, a very uncomfortable feeling. I'm better than yesterday tough so I'll be playing in a while :)
Ah cool, I'll be online in a few minutes :)
Thanks for the Races lads, was great fun seeing you all again. :+
Col, my internet is down atm mate so doubt ill be able to make it :( but you never know, so if im not make sure you have a replacement for the races :) sorry again mate
UB3R, good to see you again mate :)
Booney, gutted, that's a real shame. Hope you get some kind of connection before the day's out. No need to apologise anyway, you're not responsible for the internet ;)
blah huge network error at 7:30 pm gmt+1 too much now and my thumbs are bleeding but after 6 hours of more or less nonstop racing I'm fine with that great time great times! a great pleasure seeing all of you again too!
video of the flash tourney is coming tonight.
Had some brilliant fun today in the phantom room. Top notch races. Thanks for showing up and racing, guys! :+
What a lovely event that was. I genuinely had a lot of fun today, and it was really great to catch up with the old schoolers again.
We also saw the return of Barnster which was nice. He's still got it!
I'd like to say a massive thanks to Colonel and Novide for organising another one of these and to everyone for participating!
Very fun and entertaining event of this month; I've never recorded so much video in a single day in my life! This definitely will take several days until it's done. We should give big props to Colonel Gadaffi and Novide for all their efforts (or some free beers, whatever you guys choose :lol).
In the end, the tourney was postponed, so you don't have to worry about that. We're currently thinking about doing it the next week.
Well it's all winding down now (a few left but I'm knackered and certainly done for the day). Like Ragsus I've got an obscene amount of video to sift through and edit, I'll make a concerted effort to get it up by midweek.
Shame we couldn't get the HRC Vs AG-Systems match done but next weekend's good with me if the others are free.
I tried to write down all the pilots who I came across in The Ozone Room. Apologies for any omissions or mispellings, but my list reads:
onlykpop, D_1998_BR, Serpent, oliver_fighter7, meesiash. Dark_Phantom_89, morfeo378, DreamyElf, DJStep92, UB3R-BR3NDAGE, zero3growlithe, Oryx_Crake, traksta1, LJTheZombie, Nutcase259, R3BU5ER, Ragsus_Maxima, Bjoern92, JorG_Garcia, Challenger001, SpeedKANG96, Rennfisch, xXSuperRyugaXx, Original_Spider, Unctuos, Chaos80, P_Denton
Many thanks to all of you who showed up today, best one yet in many respects. It was particularly pleasing to find that after my lunch break I couldn't get back into the chat room because it was full. That, and many other things today, really put a smile on my face. You're all ace! :D
What a blast it was tonight, I've missed racing with you lads ALOT!:hyper
Everything was alright, when I finished at the last place. Till I was better, the error occured! :(
It was nice to race and chat again with some old friends (and some new)!:beer
Sorry i didn't stay longer and thanks to novide and Colonel for organizing this event! :clap
Until next time, goodbye. :)
Had a great time yesterday, thanks to Colonel and novide for their effort and to all of you for the races. I apologize for disconnecting during the Flash tournament, an IP error happened and took me some time to figure out what was the exact problem, but who knows, we may try to re-race it someday ;)
Unfinished flash tourney :-
Great races.You guys made me want to stay on the game,I'm not quitting anymore...I will host some 20-lap Flash Races oftenly when I'm online,so lookout for them!
I had fun watching the conversation ;)
