Only managed a few races yesterday, but damn, that was fun! Will be back for more :)
Sorry guys I wasn't around much today, I only managed to get a couple of races in earlier on today with Oryx and the gang.
I'm pretty sure my Girlfriend is more important to me than AVALON ;)
I should be on tomorrow though for some more races with all ya'll and look forward to making more friends as always :D
Ye I couldn get on HD as much as i wanted today :( house was busy all day. Guacamelee and fight night round 4 dominated the ps3. I'll try get on in an hour, for an hour. If not, then it'll have to be tomorrow :/
I just care playing Battlefield 3 than racing, if you people want me to race just let me know. Not mad, can't handle stress, but I don't feel welcomed anymore is this community.
Anyone still on? I would like to join if you guys are still playing.
I`m ready for round 2!!! in 90 mins from now :)
stevie :g
Few races this morning, but stin, Mietpiet, possessed, Weed_Junky, phk... what a blast. I guess you were particurarly tired, otherwise I still can't explain to me how come I won against you. ;)
Yesterday's avalon was probably right up there with the best avalon for me. I spent most of my avalon in phantom which is rare as rocking horse **** for me. I was loving phantom again after 3 years lol.
Thanks to everyone who raced with me. Those were some very intense and crazy experiences. The chat was fun as always.
I have to work today but I will be back online for races later, once I finish work.
I haven't been to woz for so long... I wanted to say that it was really great racing & chatting with some old friends like the old times! :)
Met also some new really fast pilots, always nice to see new faces getting in to WO. :)
Special thanks to AnE & Cat, DP, novide, oryx who reminded and motivated me to play the game again even for a weekend! :)
I'll be online a little later, need to see if I can hook the new PVR up to the PS3. If it works I should be able to get some nice 1080p footage :)
I think I'm not welcomed here in this community anymore. I think I made too many enemies than friends here. I'm the only one that is an outcast or I can't handle people that are immature. I don't reality know.
look kronic you are the only one of us here thinking about it in those terms, there really isn't an us or them thing going on here, you can stick around if you like and we'll all have a laugh or not and do as you like, but everyone is as welcome as the next person on woz, the only cases where people are not welcome are if they are actively seeking conflict in some way.
No one hates you just, put those kinds of thoughts out of your mind man.
I have over 3k posts. I'm an asshole in most of them (trust me I've been a right twat at times). I'm still welcome.
It's that sort of community.
The love for WipEout overcomes all :)
Sadly AVALON has ended for me but it was a amazing gaming experience that I've never had before so I will definitely be joining the next one. I also walk away with some awesome winnings:
1st 11x
2nd 7x
3rd 9x :D
LOL I also discovered I had a evil side during the last few races (dubbed Maniac Snake by Mietepiet) where I turned evil, insane and super competitive, making sarcastic threats haha. I turned the chat into a mini RPG haha. sheesh that was funny of me, not sure I'll ever be considered "sane" anymore by you guys in that chat haha :P
Streaming again, little folks in the phantom rooms, come join in!

ifeel sad that i didnt go online 4 years ago and follow wo... missed alot i guess although i m playing this game for 14 years... AVALON was a awesome game experience i had an great time and finally got to race some exceptional racers and meet nice people!
We love this game and i think thats what makes wipeout really unique.
Many congrats to all the team that managed all this!
Getting all back together!
Personally as long as sony keeps the server online
ill continue hanging around wo rooms!
Hope to meet again...
hahaha that was funny snake :D
when I go through my videos, I'll upload an evil Snake video for sure. this guy was spamming me with all weapons like I had a bullseye on my back. :D
I had a great time in there, wanna thank you all for a great time, just to name only one: Pontiac400, this guy was hardcore, can't remember a game he didn't participate in. what kind of redbull did you drink?
^^ Maniac Snake wanted to take you and everyone else down >=) big style
Oh no, my evil-side is returning haha :P people hide from me I don't know how much longer I can contain it haha
i'm comming online again right now :D
Going in
edit: came back out. raced a few hours and it was good fun, we should try and organise these a little more.
:)
I just want to say a massive thank you for convincing me to come out of retirement for this Avalon. Piloting the Mirage again and chatting with you guys in the Avalon lounge really brought back some great memories and I had so much fun! It was really nice to race with all of the old crew again and meet some of the newer guys too. I'm so glad that I got involved with this community and met some amazing people - seriously, you're all awesome.
A big thanks again guys and girls and much love. :g
not over yet though, still going strong! :D
Cipher
1st x0
2nd x2
3rd x1
I am worst pilot 4ever ;_;
I didn't played that much and you all was in phantom, so unfortunatly i didn't met most of you.
I'll try to catch you next time :)
And thx to everyone who joined flash races :)
AVALON maybe over but I don't want to stop racing, people I would love to race against you all again so if you wanna have some games send me a message on PSN and I'll gladly arrange something with you.
AVALON maybe over, but the spirit of WipEout will always continue, keep racing guys, we'll topple the legends someday haha :)
That was insane weekend!!! I`m bloody shattered 15 hrs of playing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I`m too old for this....NOT! LOL
It`s a shame to end :(, In the chatroom, the banter are hilarious, too busy laughing, must do again.
Could not believe every room are full and very hard to get in!, but in the end it is worth it!
Got a link for you but poor quality :( Hope you enjoy :)

See you next avalon ;)
stevie:)
Umm stin? what were you on during the video o.O
lol I can see the chat showing my mysterious win earlier on today (came 2nd but registered as 1st on the board :P)
Can we go back into hiding now ;)?
I've had a great time racing you all. I've a lot of fantastic memories of all the races we had since 2008 and the friendships I made. Not talked to a lot of you for a long time so it was nice to see so many old pilots again. It's made me feel very melancholy. Well done to everyone who organised it. :+
I did have a good time at Avalon with you folks, but I been playing Battlefield 3 during this time, sorry for making some people upset during this time. I know I might be a part of this community, but I want to let it go and do my thing and do your event without me. Sometimes I need to be left alone to cool off, but sometimes you need walk away. Thanks for the help and the support.
Hey you guys, I just wanted to say thanks. I've had a real good time racing with old friends & making new ones. 'Twas real nice :)
I like what KGB said about being melancholy , very fitting.
I'll be back for more, cheers all.
Feel the rush! :D
Thanks to the organisers.
What an awesome event! Glad to have met so many great racers, and to have finally got an opportunity to race so many legends! I hope to see everyone again soon. I'll certainly be there ^_^
I have an entire year to get better at Phantom now, clock is ticking... Did anyone else notice that it seemed like you almost had to break a personal record to win a race? Anyways, had a great time, send a pm anytime to mannjon for a challenge. See you guys around!
Well, Avalon is over but the competition still continues. I expected to have fun with this and, wow! Although I suffered some nasty surprises while racing (hi Mr. Plasmafier, wherever you are), it was a blast overall; exactly what I expected from Avalon.
I said it on the PSN chat but I'll repeat it here too (and with less broken English). It's been a pleasure to be here this weekend and I'm glad for having the chance to meet lots of the veterans that Wipeout has. Seriuosly, you're the dog's bollocks. ;)
Again, thanks to everyone who attended and see you next time!
I'm glad all the newer pilots enjoyed the event and got a taste of what a huge event AVALON was in the past, and hopefully, will be again at a later date.
The simplicity of the format and the "Open all Hours" timetable has proven successful yet again.
You should all give yourselves a pat on the back, as all a AVALON event needs is participants, the more there are the better the event. :clap :) and that's what we got in spades.
It was great to see a whole heap of names playing online that I hadn't seen in years, again thanks guys and girls for coming out of retirement and giving the newer pilots a taste of your skills.
As long as there are people interested [I think that's a "No Brainer" after this weekends Avalon], I'll look at prospective dates for another AVALON event around July / August, and it will give us a bit more time to prepare, with hopefully some online WO PURE/PULSE hosted events like the old days.
So let you thumbs recover and your controller's recharge.
Thanks again for participating. :rock:rock:rock
This was special, next time this goes down BW I am all in to support you in anything you need. Thank you all my old mates and all you young guns for making this a weekend to remember.
Big thanks for this event, had a lot of fun. Didn't attend as much as i wanted but none the less it was great! Extra fun seeing some big names in action, people i've only seen on youtube before. :))
I have no idea what iron Bru is ?
Try Bookers Bourbon [which I am having a few nips of ATM ;) ] , I ran out of vino at home and just missed the supermarket liquor store, so I had to go to the PUB I used to manage to get something.
I saw it there and thought, what the hell, I hadn't drank it in years, probably since when it was first released back in 1992 .... but I remembered just how special it is.

Bloody Amazing, and I'm not usually a Bourbon drinker.
If you think of it more like a Hennessy premium XO Cognac or premium Vintage Armagnac [a 1960 Larrasingle ] you would get the best tasting experience.
Drink straight or on ice.

Thanks for the weekend guys. I didn't get on the game as much as i'd have liked. When i did get on though, i had a blast :) some of the legends and newer pilots were very impressive :)
Hopefully race some of you guys soon :)
Great races guys! I got a lot of nice footage ^^ I hope to see more Phantom rooms looking like they did on Saturday ;) Thanks to hosts too!
