Ah bugger I've just remembered I probably won't be able to be there.
I'll be homeless (or hopefully in a new place) from 1st July so won't have internet connection...gutted :(

This is to be the last Avalon? That is very upsetting :(. The Zone has lots of happy memories from this that we owe to you, Kanar. I'll be sad to see this event go. But alas, we have Fury to look forward to! I'm sure that'll bring many more events for us all to enjoy.
I'll try my hardest to get in on EndGame, I'm sure it'll be great :D.

I'm sure we can sort something out when he retires, i'll make damn sure of it if nobody else does :D

i might have to have a little cry at the end of EndGame....*sob*

Aww mate thank you. But you know these happy memories we're sharing are all due to the zone & the arena fantastic members. I just thought one big party each month could be possible, you guys & gals just did it. Truly awesome. My hope is just to see these big parties keep going, well Yeldar just joined the cheeky monkeys crew so I'm confident for the future of this league. My wife is definitely back, so of course I can't just do that anymore... that way. I'll be around, & I'm sure there will be some cheeky monkeys around to run the show. And of course I'll be the first on the list, hosting my part ah ah. Ok the bunker need to be cleaned. Thanks for your feedback again so far, mmmurgh you know I love you all way too much.
See you all in 16 days :robot
Lunar I'm so happy to know you could possibly make it!
Amorbis
15th June 2009, 06:26 PM
That's good to know :). I should look at this as more positively, it can be the start of a group event with many people hosting and racing. My statement on owing it to you is true Kanar, but I do indeed owe it to everyone that race as well. It wouldn't be as much fun if it were just two people racing in one big event :lol.
So Avalon in August with the cheeky monkeys is on? :D.
AnErare
15th June 2009, 10:01 PM
But guys, Kanar slipping into retirement surely does not have to mean Avalon will retire :P
And I am not ready yet to believe he will either. The weekend was barely finishing or you were already informing us silently about the following event!
Kanar, I know you are already waiting, I've spotted your shiny yellow behind!

blackwiggle
16th June 2009, 01:33 AM
I think it was because Kanar's wife is an English teacher and she has been working in Paris and her work has kept them apart.
So Kanar has had a lot of free time on his hand's and has been able to organise and host these massive AVALON meet's.
Now she is coming back to the AVALON HQ [which sounds like it needs a good clean out ;) ] so he obviously won't be able to put in the huge amount of hours hosting as he has previously.
AVALON will live on,it's just that KANAR won't be able to host as much.
I don't know where he has been getting the stamina from :coffee ,I had one 12 hours session over the weekend and I was knackered.
I sincerely doubt that a lot of us would be playing HD as much as we do if it wasn't for AVALON,everybody looks forward to a meet.:rock:rock
The TAG TEAM hosting seemed to work well in this last event,as long as everybody joins the AVALON chat room we can all talk to each other even if there are multiple hosts/races going on, and we all know who is online,slots to be filled etc. :clap

I hope there is friendly fire including with the Fury pack. Then you can race country vs country, team mate verse team mate.

16th June 2009, 08:27 AM
aww I've no words for your feedbacks here, guys & gals. Just the thought I would like to live full time in world of wipeout lol. Blackwiggle, you summed up well. But I'm sure we'll find a way to maintain these events. The hoster crew runned really smoothly last we, to be honest I think AnE & Cat hosted more than me lol, and animated the chatbox like no one else. So I'm really confident now. I've already subscribed to the august cheeky monkeys crew by the way.

The first night of the last Avalon meet where I just missed you.
Well LoudandProud , XBANSTERX and myself kept it going.
We were still going when you guys came back on again :coffee:coffee:coffee:)
We need a DUCK icon.

I promise I will be there, I have missed two in a row now which isn't good enough.
If Kanar leaves it a while after that, he can call it :batAvalon Begins:bat and go right back to the start when BR's worked, lag was something you found in the loft and I was still reasonably good! How times have changed.

I dont think "Endgame July", or any form of Avalon event would adopt a Eliminator round/s in these events, reason being Avalon was primly based on "NO WEAPONS" racing. ELIMINATOR races are based entirely on "ALL WEAPONS" racing, essentially the polar opposite of Avalon Racing League.

20th June 2009, 02:00 AM
Yes true but there always are intermittent deviations ;P
KIGO1987

Im reading on another thread Kanar wants to create another racing League with no weapons. And im reading here he wants to create another event here with full use of weapons.
What the **** is going on? Im lost.
AnErare
20th June 2009, 02:48 AM
That's not what I said. And not what I meant either. It's just that there's also the weep races besides the no-weep and EndurAvalon, which is a deviation as well. Also there's occasionally other people hosting non-avalonian races.
KIGO1987
20th June 2009, 02:53 AM
So you mean random races with alot of WZ races racing each other. Not Avalon events at all.
what do you mean by weep?

ah ah why are you loss lol. On the other thread kigo, it was just wonders. I'll stick to that succession of 2 weapons on/2 weapons off races + the endurance races. I personally can't wait to attend to your "opposite" ELIMINATOR league ah ah. But I hope we won't be eliminated in the 1st turn of the first lap, as it's sometimes the case in cambodia.
KIGO1987
20th June 2009, 07:30 AM
You remind me of Count Dracula in that post Kanar;
"ah ah"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-Wd-Q3F8KM
When Eliminator mode is out first im going to have a frig around with it first to get a vibe for the dynamics of it first.
First event for the Eliminator League Community would be kinda like a big piss up casual event to get everybody into the spirit of things. No official record taking, just a bit of fun. Then in the following event then we could start OBH idea of team racing or something. But that all depends if a friendly fire feature is added to game before its released. Find out soon enough.
Yes i love my weapons. Just not in the form of bullshit lag.
AnErare
20th June 2009, 08:23 AM
Ah ghehe, yes you weren't there at the time. I wasn't entirely aware of that. Weapon can be shortened to weap, add a typo and you have weep. Which provides for weep and no-weep races ;) This actually is sort of reality to a lot of people hating the cluttered weapons races online. Although it is meant to be a joke.
Yes, that is what I meant. Avalon weekends are not only about avalon racing. There are a lot of other races going on with the limited slots hosts provide. People regularly revert to timeouts not by pausing their venture into the game but by switching races taking a break from avalon. We could alleviate tension with eliminator ;)
KIGO1987
20th June 2009, 11:37 AM
What the **** are "weep" and "non-weep" races AnErare? Should add it here if its a Jargon term.
http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6271
Anyway did understand the last part of the post. First ELC [Eliminator League Community] event it will be a casual get together. Where everybody will kinda be on the same level of playing field. Good thing with Eliminator you wont be trial blazer other players who are pulling 30 to 40 BRs per lap. Should be interesting.

They aren't so I won't. It's short for "weapons'" and "no-weapons" races with a joking twist added that looks like a typo but actually has meaning in the form of a reference... Also, in the chatbox it is far easier to type short sentences so things are abbreviated all the time. That's where I made it up and transferred it into this thread.

Well Danterich thanks for your interest, but I don't think, unless there's a strong demand for that, we'll integrate the green races for the moment. Oh maybe we could try one of two of these, if the 8 pilots are in the chatbox & agree to make a short try. This week-end is a big party first, I just want everyone united behind the wipeout flag, & enjoying LOTS of GGs ;)

24th June 2009, 03:33 PM
Would have prefered a comparison with eminem lol. I finally need a break, because world of wipeout can consume your life like drugs, especially when you're trying to follow the patrouille de France...
I'm recruiting some cheeky monkeys atm. Feel free to pm me if you think you could be as insane as me. The unique objective is to offer a good game for everyone, all over the week-end.

24th June 2009, 03:38 PM
and we'll deliver, a last time.

No - I don't think so... this as not the last avalon. Maybe for you Kanar, while you have your break, but I'm sure you'll be back for more lol, and I'm certain avalons legacy will continue...;)
kanar
24th June 2009, 04:19 PM
...and I'm certain avalons legacy will continue...;)
I hope so. I hope you guys & gals will have the desire to continue to organize a world party each month or almost...

Well, can't speak for the HD crowd - but on Pulse, yes, it will continue, and will be tied in with the TeamLink events also...
We have a scene, a better scene now then when I started playing pulse online!
More pilots, more carnage - more of everything - even two new international events (Avalon and TLD) - so yes, it shall continue!
Also - with Pulse going platinum and being available for download on PSP from PlayStation Store - I imagine even more pilots turning up for the fun!
Peace to all avalonians - let's keep the legacy more than alive - let's keep it ROCKING :rock

Great news from eric(d7m). He just joined the cheeky monkeys crew for this event. So we have AnErare, eric, & me. Yeldar & Blackwiggle are in "to be confirmed" status. We'll coordinate the hosts through the 2 chatboxes as last time, WOzone & Avalon Lounge.

Hope so my friend! I'll try to break all my previous host time records next we. I've just found today a second ps3 to replace my boeing :pirate, at a cheap price :hyper (€250 compared to €399). Maybe I'll try some eyetoy recordings

29th June 2009, 03:46 PM
Everybody please update to 2.80 .
IT WORKS!
Yes everybody go and do this update. ALOT of PROBLEMS have been eliminated with update 2.80. If everybody updates with 2.80 then this should be a very smooth Avalon, limited Vista pads and Lag,
SO PLEASE UPDATE TO 2.80 BEFORE ATTENDING THIS WEEKENDS AVALON:)
Thank you.
SaturnReturn
29th June 2009, 06:53 PM
So this is a non-essential update? This happened last time - a voluntary firmware update seemed to improve online gameplay. Why is it that the things that help the most are the things that the majority of players won't even know exist? Luck really doesn't seem to be on our side.
Anyway, I should be there at least 1 evening and 1 day, if all goes according to plan. I won't commit to hosting but if there's no slots and I'm online then I'm always prepared to host. In case I do, is anyone up for some rapier weapons races? They're fun....honest!
kanar
29th June 2009, 07:11 PM
In case I do, is anyone up for some rapier weapons races? They're fun....honest!
Of course, feel free to add some rapier in the mix! rapier class is really fun, I agree.
PLEASE UPDATE TO 2.80 BEFORE ATTENDING THIS WEEKENDS AVALON:)

I likely have a pretty busy weekend ahead, so I doubt there will be any marathon Avalon sessions for me, though I should be able to pop in for a bit. I'll take what I can get! :)
kanar
1st July 2009, 06:40 PM
well well well... less than 2 days before this last go fast. Here's a try to sum up a little:
friday, july 3, 16H00 GMT (17h00 London, 18h00 Paris)
Mother monkey deployment (kanar, me, feel free to add me as a friend, don't pay attention to the monkey stuff please), followed, at some point in the week-end or all the week-end lol, we'll see, by the fantastic cheeky monkey crew : AnErare, Kaori, Ericd7m, Saturn... Wotan talked about some host stuff too, Yeldar could return maybe, and so Buthata... They will be all able, at some point, to offer you a good GG if I'm full or on break. They'll add some no weapons races too in their mix, & keep an eye on the no-weapons records in the first post.
What's in the mix? Is it public or what?
Yes it's public. The world needs to know about wipeoutZone & wipeoutArena. As detailed in the first post, we'll have :
-regular 5 laps/br on/weapon on races (2 per tracks)
-classic no weapons/br on/5 laps (2 per tracks)
+
-20 laps endurance/no guns/br on races (on demand)
-Rapier/5 laps/weapon on/br on races (on demand)
-Green races (absorb offensive items, use defensive ones only) (on demand)
+ BLING BRIGADE TROPHY ON DEMAND (Got back my kanar id lol)
errr, how long can you stand for that mate?
I'll try to host a lot, and sleep a little bit too of course. But I mean, it's my last event before a real summer break at least/last (lol at the rip tag, don't tag me wrong, I'll be back soon!), so I'll try to break these ****ing timezones lol. I just can say I'll stop around 23h59 GMT, sunday, july 5th.
We'll do everything we could to coordinate rooms through the WOzone chatbox. Feel free to reactivate the avalon lounge one if some people still get it (and send me an invite, cos' I changed my ps3 & my profile by that time lol)
we'll try to report here the following, anyway. Ok, now I'm going to practice a little before this week-end. Hope to race you all guys & gals.
hmmm, still don't get it. Why are you doing that?
This last crazy week-end is dedicated to the legendary old time zoners, especially the ones still active from the start. I really don't know if there's another series/game with a "carreer mode" like that... I mean 7 years of wipeout here. Legend. Thanks for that. Long life WZ.

3rd July 2009, 02:14 PM
Damn, I'll have guests today afternoon and evening (they just surprised me:mad:) and won't be able to race. Maybe I'll pop in during the night... or early morning... though I planned to learn at night, very important exam on monday.:frown:
That sucks... just as it turned out everything will be so great, even a new FW update has been released. And even feared Sony mafia is by now on my side, they sold me brandnew inFamous + Pulse for PS2 for altogether 24€ yesterday.:robot
kanar
3rd July 2009, 04:37 PM
eh eh I'll be around 'til sunday mate, so no worries, we'll probably share some races this we! nice games on the pic lol, I'll try infamous this summer for sure.
Ok I've some remaining shitty domestic activities to deal with before the drop zone, so the confirmed start is now set to 17H00 GMT (gah sorry)
... And sadly, due to some coordination problems, we won't be able to host the PSP part tonight (TBC for tomorrow). But I'm sure there will be some GGs tonight or tomorrow in the pulse online universe without our help.

silverfoxy
4th July 2009, 08:12 AM
My first "real" experience of Avalon last night and what a blast it was !!
Many thanks to Kanar for hosting the races I was in early on in the night and then thanks to Wotan and TCK for the races later on. I'd gone to bed but have had a stressful few days and couldn't sleep so after an hour of trying to get to sleep, gave up and came down and joined in with more Avalon !!
Some great banter in the chatrooms as well, that definitely helped make it the experience it was for me.
Will definitely try and be about today for some more.
On a sidenote, I found trying to do BRs (mostly) very unrewarding. My thumb is aching a little this morning from all the rolling LRLRLRLRLRLRLR I was doing last night. This 2.80 update hasn't helped me but as per every Sony update it seems to help some people and make it worse for others.
But that is distracting from what were some superb races last night against la créme de la créme of Wipeout pilots. Many thanks :lol

Wtf. Crazy go fast today... 8h00 of hosting hurts... Brain damage here! Taking a little break, AnErare & ericd7m are still hosting online, I'll be back for the night in 30mn ah ah. Saturn made a beautiful vineta k forward, & eric made a beautiful reverse (and erased one more Welly), and so, Elois, who cracked one or two, (sadly I haven't quoted them, I'll get em soon hopefully), Tck was at 0.05 everywhere... CRAZY GUYZ!!! See you in a bit!!!

thx again Kanar, Anerare, Ericd7m for the hosts and everyone i raced or tchat during this Avalon weekend

Crazy insane or Insane crazy? How could you describe a world party lasting for 16 hours lol. At some point we had to manage 3 hosts, 2 chatrooms cos' everything was overcrowded. We met a lot of new friends again, and that's the spirit of avalon; spread the wipeout love. No borders. Only friendship between a bunch of fast aces. I had a fantastic blast again yesterday guys & gals, no words will be enough to thank you all. AnErare, Eric, big host support again, beyond your physical limits... thanks a lot my friends.

Bloody electricity supply problems, i get the same out here, this is what happens when the bloody Federal government allows more people to have permanent residency here (mostly from the UK). Put a massive strain on our electricity infrastructure. This summer i probably not going to get any power at all. Gonna die with no AC in the heat. One thing to say, piss off where full, unless your a doctor, nurse, school teacher then your welcome here.
I should be there for the final day Kanar, not much to do else here on a Sunday, considering this city still has extremely retarded trading hours (no shops are open here on Sunday). So ill should be online on the PS3 later, given that might net doesnt go all dumb on me.
BTW, bwiggle, your PS3 should be fine, there built pretty rock solid those units:)

Some great racing yesterday. Was lucky enough to be in a couple of races where WRs were set but not by me I hasten to add.
There are some seriously fast pilots out there in the Zone.
Massive respect to Kanar, Eric and AnErare for hosting duties. Think I was in all of your rooms at some points.
A great event and I hope to be around today for some more racing.

Thanks for the feedbacks guys & gals. I'm still searchin for my brain right now, after this two days passed in WoW.The intensity of this experience is something...
:dizzy. the most disturbing is the unability to sort your memories. Sooo many great moments, concentrated into a few hours... At phantom speeed... Yeah what a glorious feeling (and also ravaging lol), and what a great game. Ok I'll be back for 12H00 GMT. Hope to see you for the last sunday rushes!
Constrictor
5th July 2009, 11:34 AM
A big THX for organizing this. And also to those hosting the races. Even that I was not able to race that much and w/ more or less long breaks between it was big time racing. Also enjoyed that chat room ... that I did find at least after getting nervous and nearly paniced. How stupid one could be ... :coffee
And I learned a lot of things esp. my little yellow Feisar is too fragile for those narrow and close racing :lol and changing ships between races does not help either. Boom before lap 1 ends w/o getting hit by a weapon is an interesting experience. Getting hit by 3+ mines in a row, too. I vote for my T-Shirt 'Bomb magnet'
There were some lags but hey, even w/ that it was fun for me.
Also looking forward to Wotans vids.
race you soon again

Hey mate, yeah we all really took a gun shot yesterday, so it was hard to do it again today. I hosted a complete set of 64 races from 12h00 GMT to 16H00, then a terrible headache forced me to quit. I know eric was tired & took a break from hosting at the same time. AnErare is still aroud I think, BUT, you know what now I feel reaaally better, like a brand new zombie monkey, and I'm on my way to host a last time a complete set of 4 races/track, all tracks.
Reversing in 10 mns, start scheduled to 18H30 GMT (london 19H30, Paris 20H30)

That is the most fun I've had on Wipeout for a long time (since the World cup quals) and the highest standard of racing I've seen for ages as well. (I say seen, most of it was happening 10 seconds ahead....)
Massive thanks to Kanar for organising it and the amount of hours he put in hosting over the weekend. Also big thanks to Eric and AnErare for their excellent hosting as well. With all the banter and chat in the chatrooms made for an excellent experience and met some really cool people over the weekend.
Can't wait until the next one but my thumb certainly can !!

6th July 2009, 12:37 AM
Thanks to you Eric lol. You did really well. You're even one of the mvps of this month! Silverfox, it was a real pleisure to spend the we with you mate.
Sadly Ace, we couldn't handle both games in a row. We had to cancel the pulse events.
Wow. The sunday is always critical for me, after 2 crazy days of hosting I can't even see my screen lol. Hopefully 2000 mg of Aspirin cured my headache, my zombie head is suffering a little less... OMG again what a crazy afternoon & night. I've really no words to thank the army of wipers who ravaged my brain this week-end. AnErare, Eric, you really helped me a lot, I missed you a lot alone in my bunker, would have been awesome to be with you as last times with Asa, Kaori and Leungbok... Cos' this is the feeling you have when you're closing the host lol. Dam, I already miss 'em. My "same profile as me" friends. I'll really try to make a "Task" report of this week-end, but it will be hard, we raced the world! Gah I should go to bed. I probably won't be able to write something good tonight. Let me just give you the names of the MVP army for this event (yes an army of incredible fast pilots, no matter the lag, the freezes, the tireness, the cambodia, the vista pads...)... Ericd7m, Elois, Wotan, TarotcardKiller, SaturnReturn, I should add Luxoflux but I didn't raced him a lot myself, my hoster friends did more. AnErare, Eric, you'll give me your feelings about that but sincerely, again, we definitely can't resume this event to our alien friends; the MAGEC academy awards is this time a truly alien breed. I saw fast aces from all over the world, to the point I suspected some 2nd accounts lol. But I realized we just get through all the timezones & just met a lot of new aces. I've still doubts regarding kaleidoscope though. If someone has news, we missed him.

Bloody electricity supply problems, i get the same out here.
I've had 7 in the last 2 months,it's on the front page of the Sydney newspapers today.
I'm going to be without power for the whole of Wednesday apparently,repairs to a local sub station according to a flyer that was put in my letterbox today.
BTW, bwiggle, your PS3 should be fine, there built pretty rock solid those units:)
I hoped and thought it would be OK as well, but HD now has problems loading,I think a sector of my hard drive has been damaged by the disc reading arm touching the disc when the power suddenly went out.:frown:

I didn't actually realize I was playing in your Avalon set up type thing... lol :banzai
I remember the weapons going off tho....(Assegai can't fight back with no weapons, what am I gonna do ram Triakis off the track lol) that aside 4 races in a row on the same track is a little too repetitive for my tastes but plenty other folk seem to enjoy it so hey ho.

eh eh yeah the 2 weapons/2 weapons off set up is kinda hardcore, true. Thanks for poppin up anyway, always a good thing to share the track with great pilots such like you, plasma addict. Hopefully C80 made the job, and was successfull in his zombie hunt lol. mmm rockets & plasma. Always a good laugh, seriously, especially from you Chaos. I would actually pay to see a 1 vs 1 between Chaos & RR, guns on of course.

Thanks for the weekend guys, and especially to kanar. Cheers mate. I've really enjoyed this weekend , a really great experience. Lots of pilots i've never raced before, who gave me a good tanning:lol its a real shame to think this will be the last, i hope this isnt the case. I hope to still see you on the tracks from time to time kanar , cheers mate:hyper

Hey Barnster, thanks for the feedback, was a pleisure to race you for some crazy ones again! Well, after such experience it's really hard -impossible- to say "the end". Actually I'm more in the "OMG This is ****ing Living" mood so, I'll do everything I could to set up an August event. I feel like I'm owing that to the zone, & the 257 avalon league members. And I'll probably host a bit, of course not like I did before lol. I'm sure we can co-ordinate something, this week-end fever proved again that a world party is possible. Ok this one is easy but so true. "Yes we can". We can enjoy racing all together, without dissing or insulting our pilot friends. We can share a bunch of talk in the chatbox with everyone, all nationalities, at least to say in an ugly english "GG, thanks for racing, you ****ing alien!". We just have to set a date, gather pilots, and race. And add a little bit of no-weapon races as the cherry on the cake lol.

Haha kanar for president 'Yes we can' :p
A quick thank you to kanar, eric and AnErare (Marv) for hosting this crazy weekend, couldn't be there as much as I would have liked due to my housing problems but I know what it takes to host like that and I commend you all!
This won't be the last Avalon, of that I'm sure. I for one would certainly be willing to put in the time to keep this event going and I know many others would too...even though I am a rage quit monkey these days :lol
On Saturday I lost sight of why I was playing HD and I let the game get to me instead of concentrating on the fact that I was amongst friends, a valuable lesson learned for me and the entire reason why Avalon must keep going. Anything that inspires unity and friendship is an awesome thing indeed, you did us proud kanar.
Now go take a well earned rest, I'll miss you a lot but I'm sure you'll be lurking around somewhere....:D

I guess there are two nominees for World President now:)
I didnt attend the last day off Avalon cause all the rooms where full, then a little after that, the stupid net here went down from ADSL1 to Dial up. But i did enjoy attending Day1 of Avalon of the week:)

I'm definitely out for a while, I've just parked my Icaras in my garage, saying goodbye to the competition. Too much time involved here & in the phantom speed lap rankings, feel exhausted & I need a real change. I've ALOT of things to fix in my real life. Hope you'll keep this event going without me my friends. I would be glad to see something like "avalon : sons of rubberduck" in august bwah ah ah. I enjoyed A LOT organizing these events, I spent rare, pure, crazy times with you all. No words to thank the 258 members of the fed, all the zone & wipeoutArena members... And of course you, Rob, the architect. As I said, I'll stay around, lurking at the place. I'll help you guys & gals if you're up to organize something, if you want to. But I've to push the pause button now. Time to launch some other games like bomberman, or motorstorm, or just let the ps3 just turned off.
Thanks again to all of you for your attention, your dedication, your help, the memories... And for believing in me.
