Good luck with event guys... I'm glad to say I finally got it last night. In the end several of my PSF friends rallied around me, plus Shiven came back to race with me, and BlackWiggle and Kigo found a couple of friends to help..
We even rounded the night out with a tournament where one of the extra guys and bw both kicked butt.... lol
It wasn't all plain sailing though.. as for the first two or three individual races somebody didn't have the skin on, so I started the room from scratch and got everyone with silver skins with 6 people from my friends list, and I think the other two from the wipeout forums via bw... so somewhere in there something went wrong, but we worked it out eventually, lol..
So, I can't emphasise enough... it seems so simple, but communication is the key.. with the improvements to the wipeout lobby, and the ps3 chat system it should be a very simple trophy to get (in theory, lol) took me 4 organised nights to get it though, and it was almost humbling that all 7 people took part just for me to get that trophy.
1. Organise a PS3 chatroom, that way everyone can communicate with everyone... Unfortunately the two not on my list weren't in the chat, but someone managed to let the one without the silver skin know and they changed it for the 4th race I think.
2. Make sure everybody knows why they are there, and they need the skins on... again, seems so simple, but both nights I was involved in where there were 8 in the racing there were unsuccessful races because somebody didn't have the right skin.
3. Obviously keep the room to friends only, or invite only... obviously it becomes very difficult if randoms pop in... until such day as you can label rooms "Bling Brigade only" like a FPS game.. You can invite people who aren't on your list, it just makes the communication harder... I'd have readded a couple more to my list, but I didn't want to jinx things, seeing as I got my connectivity back.
4. Keep it to single race only
5. If you have multiple people trying to get the trophy, try and get everyone to agree to the same etiquette... It is annoying for those who couldn't make the first race to miss out, because 4 or 5 people ran after they got the trophy... again, using the chatroom you can organise how many need to drop off, and agree who will do it.
