VERY COOL VIDEO :beer
padman's a bad man! :g
You rock JJ !! :rock
JJPAP!, how long does it take that video to make?, must be alot of hours for that!
stevie:blarg
So I'm pulling out of the cup.
I have no desire to race in an event that has been turned into a memorial for someone I don't know and didn't care about. That's not right. A memorial should be only attended by those who care no?
Stevie - and the rest of you as well!: Thanks for the nice replies :)
Hours? ... Hrhhhmmm (calculating) ... a lot! :D
But mainly because of collecting/recording the footage. Imagine: Everything is going well at the WHDC Command Center (formerly known as the WO Museum!), then suddenly someone unknown virtual guy/girl enters your personal space, your live-recording(!), pointing his/her finger at you, wanting to talk homish, believing your a button to be pushed to get his/her WO Museum (now the WHDC Command center!) Trophy ... A Panda-head ... :D
And a lot of technical - not virtual human - issues, which took a lot of time, unexpected: When ever there´s an explosion or something "wild" going on in WO, you´ll (mostly) see (in slow-mo, not real time) a single jagged line "crawling" down the screen. Those I had to get rid of aka watching every "nicked" footage/(and my own) frame by frame ... Extremely boring! But to me: Necesary.
This weekend I´d collected and recorded a lot of footage, ready to start editing - the fun part. But then monday ... What can I say? Totally Numb.
After the initial shock I got into a working frenzy, maybe 14-16 hours in 2 days. Sending the link to a few members of the Command Center-crew last night.
This morning I found out that there was a sound- and video-"crack" in the middle of the vid ... A lot of work to be re-done ... again ...
But but but, don´t get me wrong! It´s really fun to do - otherwise I wouldn´t hesitate to do something else, like watching The News, The Cosby Show, Sex & The City ... or having a nice glass of reeed, awaiting to be among good friends tomorrow night :lol
Hi i'm interested in joining the Hd wipe out cup.

so sad.he is in my thoughts.
its good to dedicate this cup like its has been.
today was a **** day, but reminding me of that technique just made smile :g
Have updated the post w/ the links to the vids.
Now they contain downloadable files for PS3, PSP and PC/Mac.
Had to set up a Megaupload-account, ´cause my own web site-provider is not too fond of me atm :lol
This also means that links given earlier won´t work anymore, but: No dead links, the previous posts are all updated

hi kanar,id like to sign up,my psn is slow-train! ; )-'
Welcome there slow-train! And a warm welcome to DJTechno & trinity17 (you probably burned the matrix with her mate uh?) too!
Kanar, good news. ;3 P_Denton wants in.
Sweeet :D
I've been away a long time recently and suppose I should take part. This is all still in preparation, right?
So, if you're still accepting, please sign me up. ^^
Woop Woop!:rock Welcome to the cup mate, really glad you're taking part! All details, rules, infos first post of this thread btw. Around 50 slots left, beginning mid-december! WooooW. the line up is definitely
LEGENDARY:mr-t
You are right Kanar! Looking awesome Already :) But I've got the feeling we're Still missing some japanese and German pilots....What's up with that!? :brickwall
We're missing a LOT of Japanese pilots yes, & Aka-sho is doing lots of efforts to recruit them, like here : http://plaza.rakuten.co.jp/wipeout2/... And a LOT of pilots who simply stopped playing or giving news here. I'm acting as a lobbyist for a while now, keep saying "biggest wipeout event ever" "Fairest way to compete" "No lag, no framerate stuttering (at least really less)" "racing for unity", or "in the name of our common memories"... Now I think everyone around is aware there's a big cup coming in the next months, & we can't force anyone to join lol.
Ok time to make a little progress report btw;
-We need to boost the registrations as there's still around 60/70 slots left (counting the very useful waiting list). December is coming quickly, and we'll need time for completing the registration process (mails, drawing lots, tournament boards...). I'll make a last wiper psn IDs spam this week, then we'll have to go "public", trying to contact the official sony boards from all over the globe. We have high quality teasers & pics, and an awesome line up already, I'm sure we could get the last pilots we need this way. As I said, I tried to privilegiate the pilots from this place & from wipeoutArena, but I think we reached the zone limit here lol.
-I've no news from Connavar or anyone else regarding a dedicated webpage for the cup. Tbh, this is not a big deal as we have the zone, and I'm sure we'll find a way to highlight the reports & the important news from here. So if nothing happens, I've my own ideas anyway :P.
-There will be a 64 seeded player list, & Blackwiggle will draw the lots as soon as the 256 will be known (he found a very nice tournament board generator).
-8 Cup community managers will be in charge of group of 32 pilots for round 1 (number of cup managers will be decreased to 4 for round 2). Here's the list of your new friends :P:
Kanar, JJPAP, KGB, Jasmin, Blackwiggle, challenger001, triboy, R3BU5ER
You'll have to report anything (results, complaints...) to your designated cup manager.
-An "Official" wipeout HD cup Tee-shirt will be available in the next few months, nutcase is working on the design and should see with Rob what can be done with Cafepress. We're also working on a custom/limited serie t-shirt only available as a prize, as nutcase found a crazy website where you can do whatever you want regarding print zones.
-I'm thinking about a trophy set too, as I've already the design in mind (mmm panda trophy with "wipeout HD world champ" written on it ah ah...)
So here we are now. We're on the brink of making a fantastic event all together, but there's still a lot of work to do. And one last thing.
Just look at Counter Strike or Trackmania. At least I know these two. There's a rock solid online community for both of them, and these games are available for ages now. So don't tell me we're unable to do the same, & offer an incredible challenge to the wipeout community. Jeez this is the hardest & the best game ever after all!:rock
I'm up with you, mates!!!!
warming up and training hard again
Awesome il_Nik, you just gave me a lil' smile on my face; really good to see the old guard mobilizing. Like in the "300" movie ah ah. We must stop that christmas invasion of crappy game releases lol

I'm up for it. PSN id: tomcatziggy
Welcome piranha2097, eh eh we just exchanged some psn pms & you're already here, superb!
I've just been looking at the long, long list of prestigious names that will be competing in this and wondering; how on earth could i ever pick a favourite for this? :)
Annoying, due to his ridiculous consistency... only one name crops up in my head... :beer
I think the Uni will give him some sort of handicap lol. Speakin of this prestigious list, please Saturn or Rob or Xeik or Lance, could you guys help me to sort the code I'm trying to put on my first post? It's been 3 hours I'm trying to sort this out, & my laptop is going out of battery lol
Ears - burning :P
I know who my favourites are. Maybe we should whack out some odds on people and do some betting :banzai
@kanar - I've sorted the list according to the number order now (in Excel, not pasted in yet). What else did you want? Just bold black text?
grrrr I'm so dumb. Just wanted to add Vartazian on the list & I completely messed up with the code. Thanks a lot Saturn, and sorry I ruined your work there gah. If you have some time could you explain this stuff to me by pm?
Is that our startnumbers? I remember when I was roadracing, everyone wanted the same digit numbers, because then you'd only have to buy one pack of stickers. I like 111.
1-1-1 The Number of the Fail
:D
(no odds are given)
ah ah no mik, it's not your definitive startnumber, as we still have to implement the ranked seeded player list (64 pilots, protected by blackwiggle magic randomizer tournament board maker)
095I likes it :P
What's the purpose of the numbers Kanar mate?
