[kanar]

Good job for the board mate, & GG for kicking my a**. I'll take my revenge next week_end:pirate. Good luck with Wellington by the way.

[djKyoto]

If theres a weapons head-to-head cup now, why are the tracks and matchups excatly the same?

[kanar]

previously on that (double) head_to_head cup, for you djkyoto...

kaori kicked my a** twice, 1st in the gun cup, and after in the no_gun cup.
But here's the whole story : we made in fact 3 series of 7 races (because we had a former head_to_head cup third place match to play...). I won 7_0 :lol the 2nd run (was hyper focused_I made crazy times)... but that wasn't the good one lol. The third run I completely f****d up (respawn, DNF, the whole stuff when you're not focused you know). GG, mister "regulate" kaori!

[KIGO1987]

Leungbok and i are racing in a few hours.

So 1st tournament weapons off, 2nd tournament weapons on? Yes? Who hosts and who keeps scores btw?

[leungbok]

No matter who's the hoster, mate. We can share, i'll host the no weapon races and you the weapon on for example. If you have a hdtv it's better if you keep the scores, if you have an old tv i'll do it on my new cathodic screen :?

[rdmx]

You guys both have old tvs, I know that much :P

[KIGO1987]

You guys both have old tvs, I know that much :P

You are correct, bad isnt it, at least i have a 1000watt sound system, hehe.

Ok you host the first one no weapons, ill host the second one with weapons. You keep score, ill score as well. Looking forward:g

[KIGO1987]

You posting the results yet Leungbok?

Very tight, very very tight those races where.

KIGO1987/Leungbok
Weapons Off:
5/2

Weapons On:
3/4

[leungbok]

We did our tournaments with kigo and here's the results :

no weapons : 5-2 Kigo
weapons on : 4-3 leungbok

In the first tournament (no weapons) i totally missed the first turn of chengou and it was too hard to get close to Kigo who were very consistent on all the tracks. I sucked too on sol2 reverse (one of my favorite tracks !! :blarg) i deserve some slaps ! :brickwall
Kigo won the first tournament with a nice consistency :beer and i won the second with a better items pickup.

no weapons :

leungbok : 6-8-6-6-6-8-6 = 46
Kigo : 8-6-8-8-8-6-8 = 52

weapons on :

leungbok : 8-6-8-8-6-8-6 = 50
Kigo : 6-8-6-6-8-6-8 = 48

[KIGO1987]

did you see the split on Moa Therma no weaopons Leungbok? .06!!

Damn!

Then there was the Sebenco climb one shiit, i have no idea when you over took me on the finish line cause i didnt see since it was so tight.

[leungbok]

Don't talk to me about moa therma, i missed the last br :brickwall
For sebenco, i thinks it's due to lag. On anulpha rev for example i thought i was first and saw that i was 0.7 sec late, and suddenly you appeared in front of me, gushing from the floor :cold lol
I think the computer correct the times at the end of the races.

[KIGO1987]

Thats freaky that always happens on Analpha Pass reverse just passed the grid. This happens alot to me in online races, always in that part of the track, very freaky, must be a bug. You say, where did he go, then he re appears again, WTF!

[KIGO1987]

When are you other guys going to get your first tournaments started off? BTW Kyoto, Habib can get online again, you should organise a time to start off your first heat.

[blackwiggle]

Elhabib says he still can't get online in the 1.25 patch thread.

[KIGO1987]

So Kyoto gets a free ride to the 2nd heats if he doesnt get a chance to verse Habib by Valentines day. lucky bastard. Ive gotta chace either to frenchies with no missiles to help me out. Either its Expatarius Fish ship or another EGX with Kingheim.

[djKyoto]

I rather vs and lose, than get a free ride to the next round.

Hopefully it gets sorted soon for him.

[kaori]

I agree with you djKyoto, I hope eLhabib's problem will be resolved.
Just in case, will anyone want take his place ?

[eLhabib]

Now, now, don't get too excited here, I will be back online sooner or later, and I plan to take Mr. Kyoto DOWN ;)

My online issues haven't been resolved yet, and I am gonna be away for the next week, but when I return, I hope all will be sorted. I will be terribly out of training though...

[djKyoto]

Down?

Downtown to buy me a cold one. :D

[kaori]

Avalon Cup, 1/8 :
kingheim - ExpitariuS 6-1

Weapons Cup, 1/8 :
Wellington86 - lude22vti 7-0
ExpitariuS - kingheim 4-3


First part of board is complete, it's a good thing.
Firsts 1/4 matches & ranking matches can be played from today.

[KIGO1987]

Sweet. i think my plan might work now:banzai. I dont have to verse Frenchman in the Fishship.

[kaori]

1/8 Avalon Cup : Wotan998 - G-Superpilot 7/0
1/8 Weapons Cup : Wotan998 - G-Superpilot 6/1

[Sugar_from_OTW]

when are the next races for this being held?

[KIGO1987]

Im going to speak to kingheim soon about whats a good time to race. So we'll find out soon. I want to get it done before the end of the months, before my Uni year starts.

[kaori]

1/8 Weapons : jimmyRIV-AKRO2 4-3

[KIGO1987]

Unofficially Kingheim and I will be racing next Saturday, the day is subjected to change. Most likely this time will be confirmed between us later in the week. To see what suits us best. Looking forward.

[kaori]

Please Haydn, RJ'O, djKyoto & eLhahbib, quickly play your matches.

[eLhabib]

sorry, I guess I'll have to resign - I still can't get online with HD :( Good luck djKyoto, bring home the victory!

[OBH]

i havnt seen blinky online for ages.

granted i had no internet for a month... ill send him a message.

[KIGO1987]

Good luck djKyoto, bring home the victory!

****ing lucky Cowboy gets a free rid to the second heat:frown:

Now;

Heat 2 with Kingheim and I has been confirmed for tomorrow. So you will be seeing some new results being posted on here soon.

[djKyoto]

sorry, I guess I'll have to resign - I still can't get online with HD :( Good luck djKyoto, bring home the victory!

Have you tried a different PSN account?

[kaori]

Yes you should try to create a new PSN ID. kanar did that and it works.

[eLhabib]

I know I can do that, but it's unlikely that I will unlock Auricom on a new account by tomorrow... Plus, I'm most likely terribly out of practice :paperbag

[djKyoto]

Give it a try at least, even if you have to do it in another ship, I still think you'll be very competitive.

[KIGO1987]

FM pure ownage, the difference of using motion control pitch and not using motion control pitch. Connection was a cuunt on my side to. But good winning streak for you.

KIGO1987;KINGHEIM

1/6

Kingheim won all (first 6). But not the last one on Vineta K.

Well, good luck in the 3rd heat.

[RJ O'Connell]

Haydn, if you're online tonight, we need to get this going....

[kaori]

Kigo, have you seen you have a ranking match for 9th-16th place in weapons cup too, against... kingheim :cold

AKRO2 win 4-3 vs jimmyRIV in 1/8 avalon.

[RJ O'Connell]

7-0 wins for OBH in both events.

Sorry about this, it's just been one of those months where Wipeout has been low on the priorities list, especially after a bad start to this semester of university. It was worth it finally getting back to my usual form of bouncing off the walls in Phantom class :g

[OBH]

hey you got your priorities in the right order so no worries :g

gutted tournies dont count as times. was on good form.
so whos next?? :) did jimmy not do wepons torny??

[KIGO1987]

where Wipeout has been low on the priorities list, especially after a bad start to this semester of university.

Me the week after next. Ive gotta hide the PS3 or ill be tempted to turn it on.

Whats this other thing where i verse Kingheim with weapons on? How does that work out?

[djKyoto]

Sigh.

Permission for me to continue and vs Wotan998? :\

[kaori]

ok, if eLhabib is sure he doesn't want try with an other ship :frown:

[eLhabib]

Sorry, can't race you now - having other (personal) problems apart from my connection issues. There will be another time, I'm sure.
Good luck in round 2 djKyoto :+

[kaori]

weapons cup, 1/4 final, ExpitariuS-leungbok : 6-1

[kaori]

Yesterday I played Wellington, he won the 2 tournaments by 6-1. For win in Avalon Cup on Metropia Reverse, I can thanks his respaws.
And in Weapons Cup, I win Anulpha Pass with the 10th best time!!! I could win Sol 2 too, but I were idiot, I put a boost before the final line, and I respawn...
Congratulations Welli, you can play kingheim in Avalon, and ExpitariuS in Weapons, for get your place in final.

[OBH]

im having communication problems with jimmyRIV :(

[kaori]

Ok, I see with him, please haydn, tell me when you can play this week, and if you can play at 5.30 pm GMT.

[Wellington86]

Thanks kaori, and well played. I didn't realise your AP time was so fast, congratulations. I should add to your short account of our contest that I won Ubermall weapons when you had your absorb button as select, lol. We should really have done that one again.

[OBH]

Ok, I see with him, please haydn, tell me when you can play this week, and if you can play at 5.30 pm GMT.

5.30s fine say tuesday or wednesday

[kaori]

jimmyRIV tells me 5.30 GMT tomorrow is Ok, he will create the game.

[RJ O'Connell]

Ugh, yeah, forgot all about this - again - I could try and squeeze the race in on Saturday afternoon here (Saturday evening in Europe).

[djKyoto]

I haven't seen Wotan online for a few days. I usually see him in the evening, but not rescently. If I see him in time, we'll do our races.

[djKyoto]

Avalon: 4-3 to Wotan
Weapons: 7-0 to Wotan

Not a surprising result, havn't played in over a week, but whatever. :|

Gl in the next round.

[KIGO1987]

Kingheim, let me know when you want to do the weapons on tournament.

[kaori]

1/4 final avalon : haydn-AKRO2, 6-1*

1/2 final avalon schedule : kingheim vs Wellington, Wotan998 vs osama-bin-haydn

@ haydn, have you news of jimmyRIV?

[OBH]

no, havnt seen him on for ages. sorry for being so late on this....

[kaori]

Give him some rendez-vous, don't forget you are GMT 0 and jimmyRIV GMT +1, and if he can't/don't want play this week, you will play semi-final against Wotan.

[OBH]

looking forward to it. Gonna have to be on fine form to beat Wotan.

[SaturnReturn]

kingheim vs. Wellington86

I wish I could witness that. They're both racing machines. This is a really cool and interesting cup all round actually. :+I'm looking forward to the outcome and maybe I'll even take part next time.

[yeldar2097]

yeah me too!
so yeah, studio liverpool, about that spectator function...:P

[kaori]

I'm glad to see some Flying Dutchmen join the next event!
But before, we must finish this first edition!
haydn, have you any news of jimmyRIV? If no, you win the 1/4 final, and you can play against wotan (avalon & weapons cup)! These semi-finals seem to be a revenge of England-France!!!
Good Luck to all!

[OBH]

jimmyRIV says he deleted wipeout.

why didnt he say that at the beginning

[kaori]

I am not surprised :frown: this guy has real problems of communication with other human...
Good luck vs Wotan (in Avalon cup AND Weapons cup)

[kaori]

Semi-final Avalon : kingheim 4-3 Wellington86.

In final, Wotan998 vs kingheim :o

In weapons cup, ExpitariuS and Wellington should do their match this week to qualify in final vs Wotan.

[yeldar2097]

too many super fast french pilots :(
they MUST be defeated! come on wellington, you can do this :)

[kaori]

Wellington beat ExpitariuS 5-2.

Final Avalon : Wotan-kingheim
Final Weapons : Wotan-Wellington
Registrations for next season can start.

[SaturnReturn]

Did the finals ever happen?

[OBH]

no idea.
wotan got a sneaky by past the semis cos i wasnt around :)

[KIGO1987]

Kaori canned it to the end.

There where massive problems in everyone trying to contact everybody else.

Dont think Wellington races these days either....

[SaturnReturn]

Really? That's a shame seeing as the persevered all the way up to the final. Oh well, it looks like there's nothing to do other than declare myself the winner then. I'd like to thank.....

[KIGO1987]

Yes, lol.

I also like to clame Kingheim's EG-X had illigal French additional tech on his ship by team Renault.

That puts my overall position up. :lol.:g

[kaori]

I'll send a PS3 message to these 3 newbies :P
