Don't think Ive raced you guillaume/wzFRO before last night, have they been hothousing you somewhere in deepest France?

I like your avatar as well, might have to get one of those.

Edit: I now have one of those

[Wellington86]

Met with another nuisance today, like the one eLhabib mentioned. In acrooklyn's room (which had previously been Connavar's) it eventually got down to just him, Feisar31 and me. Mid-way through a tournament a player called campb292 decided he'd had enough of losing and began to sit on the track in every remaining race waiting to shoot or otherwise sabotage us. On AP reverse he even sat his ship next to his own bomb at the very narrow part of the track and since his ship was somehow not a ghost he ensured there was no way past. acrooklyn somehow never noticed him (lol) but Feisar was killed outright by him and I was indirectly killed because of him at least twice. We need some kind of report system!

Anyway, I did a lot of racing today with a lot of people. Thanks to all.

[Feisar31]

Yeah Wellington, although I didn't see the bomb thing on Anulpha I did notice that guy being a headache. Can't understand some people!

But I was getting frustrated enough at my own inconsistency tonight. In the last tournament with djKyoto, amazingly I had gotten out in front on the first Anulpha forward race when I botched the BR off the bridge in spectacular fashion, ramming into the wall and bouncing back to a complete stop. I wish I could have waved at you guys as you zoomed past.

Anyway, cheers to everyone I raced with this weekend, including the very fast wzFro!

Yes, in a dark castle with Master Asayyeah

Seriously though, I play online at work, which means 1pm to 2pm monday to friday, french time (GMT+1 I believe). That's not the usual gaming hours for european players, that must be why we never raced before.
EDIT: because I'm an addict, I sometimes play after work too, between 6pm and 7pm.

[Cerium]

Heh...? I'm curious what type of job you have that affords you the opportunity to play a PS3 while on the job.

[guillaume]

Video game company
And I play during lunch breaks.
Ooh, there's one in about 10 minutes!
And yes, I sometimes post during work hours.
But with internet at work, who wouldn't, mmh?


EDIT: lunch break over, head and stomach all dizzy, thank you blackwiggle, jjpap, stin_wz, must get back to work.

[yeldar2097]

the joys of still having 22 weeks a year of holiday...

[rushin]

i play at work, but i try to be strict and limit it to an hour a day at most, dont get me started on how much time i spend aimlessly wandering the net reading stuff though..

somewhat luckily i get to work from home whenever i want, which turns out to be 90% of the time ;-)

[Cerium]

Yikes... played a bunch of games today which closer resembled some of my first races ever; yet I still managed to anger someone enough to send me hate mail (Narx88 ). If only you could filter by the games your friends are in rather than just the ones they create...

Also got a couple of games against a pretty fast American I've not seen around here (magneux or something). Hopefully he accepts the invite.

[micky1984]

Well thanks to every one in that action packed tourny today every race was amazingly tense, thanks to leungbok, froste, luxoflux and others i cant remember. Havnt had races like that in a long time so thanks all

[Connavar]

Had a pretty horrible lag tonight, game disconnecting me several times
Still great games hosted by Wellington86 with kingheim, Greenix, Danterich,
imre92, z1r0rEi, Yoshikamitsu...

Sorry again for disconnecting after the first race in the tournament.
We'll play again I'm sure!

[Tordmulen]

I just want to say that I really enjoyed the session last night with emwu23, JJPAP, Toastor, KIGO1987 , a french auricom player (whose name I cant remember) and others that dropped by.

Its good to see which tracks one needs to practice more on.

[JJPAP]

Thx for good races with Yomismi, Andybob, Evolite, Tordmulen and others last night. See you on the tracks.
Oh, I almost forgot Wellington86 (maybe because I didn´t see much of him!): You really did some fabolous times on several tracks. Thumbs up.

[guillaume]

Good races again today, with KGB1971, Wotan998, Aka-sho, hn9354 (a fast japanese player), and surely others. Thanks all!

[Wellington86]

Yeah thanks for the races Connavar and JJPAP, I hosted for quite a long time yesterday and it was an enjoyable session, although the early races featured Evolite giving up on almost every track and eventually starting to interfere with the race once we lapped him. Thanks to everyone else, particularly kingheim with whom I had lots of close races (as usual!).

And yes JJPAP I beat a couple of my own records yesterday (one of them by a very large margin) and I had the satisfaction of bringing djKyoto's long-standing time at the top of the SC reverse multiplayer leaderboard to an end, for now anyway .

[OBH]

Youve taken SC Reverse too? For god sake, id had my eyes on that for ages!

Im sure a certain djkyoto is pissed

[KGB]

Just played in Greenix's room and the lag was awful, i must of flown over countless weapon pick-ups without getting a single one or if one did appear it was after a 10 sec delay. I don't often play that early, so i don't know if it's a time of day thing or not, but if that's what it is like all the time then i would have to stop playing as it was infuriating. I lost by a country mile which made it even worse .

To cap it all off i actually had a shield before i even set off on sol2 rev but i won that ( KIGO) so that's ok.

[Cerium]

PSN has been having issues today. I was playing an 8-player race on Chengou reverse and... well... a transcript would probably work best.

* player leaves *
* player leaves *
* player leaves *
"Weird. Wonder why everyone is leaving..."
* player leaves *
* player leaves *
"Odd."
* player leaves *

* You have been signed out of the Playstation Network *
"Ohhhh..."

[KGB]

If people are experiencing this all the time then i feel bad for them. It ruined, what was a really good room full of great pilots for me, I don't mind losing at all, there will be plenty of people on this forum that will testify to that.

But it changes the results of the races for everybody and gets everyone more than a little angry. On the few occasions that i did get into the lead, trying to fend Greenix, KIGO, Evolite, Luxoflux and Acrooklyn off takes more than a little skill, the odd weapon would of been nice to (I know everyone was having problems mind).

Anyway I'm being a bad loser, ill go back to playing at 2AM.

Cheers for the races everyone anyway
