At this point i wish luck and my support to Dark_Phantom_89 and LUNA_bgd to win the Cup. ^^

woah grats jasmin the way you've been talking it sounded like this would be an easy win for leung...

sorry to see you go leung now on to check out those vids!

@Dreamy : Eric came in my place once, he looks a bit shy and his definitely one of the sweatest persons I've ever met... but on the track he's not shy anymore! :g

@Leung and Jasmin : very nice show again!!! Leung certainly did some errors, especially on Anulpha Reverse. But you were so fast and consistent Jasmin, I was blown away!
Nice victory from Jasmin... but I'm a bit sad for Leung (NB : take into account I discuss with him nearly every day :g ). Good luck for the next rounds ;)

@temet

im sad too... :( leungbok is the person you want to meet in the finals not in the second round..

very stressful games..many thanks to leungbok the perfect sportsman..

to be honest im in a state of shock i cant believe i won any of our games but i am very happy i did :hyper

many thx to medusa my training buddy who was my chatroom cheerleader for my worldcup match and egged me on and helped me concentrate.
many thanks to ace for the training game in the afternoon and slimjim for giving good support.:clap

i actually got some films of races but im having trouble making and putting them on youtube never done it before but i will get them up soon or ill get someone to do it for me.

Been several delays for various reasons, but me and QjonPL will be kicking off in a few hours :)

^ should be a good match, good luck! :)

Awesome racing Jasmin!

Was Leungbok drunk? :beer

Yesterday we played with DreamyElf, thank you very much for those races and for the time we spent in the chatroom waiting for my battery to be full.
I wish you the best where you live in greece :) and hope that we still play together from time to time after this cup.
See you soon!

I strongly recommend to anyone to have a look on the vid posted by Eric three posts before.
It's certainly one of the cleanest racing I've ever seen ;)
Well done Eric, thanks for recording!!!

WHOA what an upset!!!!:eek
I mean leungbok V jasmin jade.

I'm surprised, but not really surprised.
If you remove the BR's from a race when V's a BR expert you level the playing field big time, it throws them off.
Then mistakes start accumulating just because they lose confidence.

I haven't viewed the videos, but I know leungbok would be quite stunned at not making it through.
He's not one to throw away a win when it's in his grasp.

Kudos Jasmin :clap:clap:clap

Just watched them. Great racing, almost AI like. Perfect laps everywhere :)

These pilots didn't get seeded for no reason.

Unless you play a tactically measured approach.

Use your 3 choices where you think you can even the odds against a seeded pilot, then have enough notice to sharpen your chops on their 3 selections.

They will make mince meat out of you otherwise.

As I'm probably just about to find out
:paperbag

Great performance Jasmin, it's not easy kicking Leungbok out of the cup :) Well played both.

@jav..thx jav..

@blackwiggle
i only turned off br in one race (ubermall) so the 2 shortcuts had to be done without br's which made it a lot harder....

every other race we played barrel rolls were on..

i love br's as much as leungbok especially those super ones he does from near level surfaces..im always checking out his latest techniques.


good look to qjon (the dark horse) and his opponent this is going to be a major intense race ...i hope theres a film at the end of it too....
