Whats the base? Need 2 know to keep you guys from not having any fun for lack of resistance. I'm sure I could plant a few 'presents' here and there to 'liven' things up a bit

DUDE that would be SWEET id offer to lead it but im not cr5 yet, only cr3, which is still good but, its no scarab backpack

It might be a little late for this one (when is it again?) But definatly for the next one. Vanu take every chance they get to blow shiat up..specially dem striker and jackhammer users

I always thought that multi-empire coordinated events would be kickass. Do-itDo-itDo-itDo-it

K i have some questions for you airlift.

1. Are we all running at the same time? Or is it like a time trial? And is this going to be recorded and kept for future races like a points series?
2. What is the finish line? Crossing a warpgate or what? me=confused.
3. Just a note, i heard u say 2-3 weeks from now, i will be on vacation from this saturday until like august 2nd or so. I will be back by the the 4th tho definitely. ill get u more specific dates. i dont xpect u to organize the thing around my schedule but im just throwing it out there early.

thnx

There are only 4 teams signed up and 2 outside volunteers at the moment, so there is still a lot of flexibility in the date, and we can do it in August.

All teams will preferrably be running in a single heat for this race, especially if turnout is lower than expected.

The checkpoints will be on the raised platform in the center of each warp gate. The finish line itself will be on the road leading directly up to Zotz. Your observer (assuming I can recruit enough volunteers) will communicate with the checkpoint official to get leg and overall times, which will be recorded for points that will accumulate thru the racing series. If this goes well, the second race will probably either be on Searhus or Cyssor. Eventually, I would like to do a cannonball run across several continents, but first thing's first.

okay the base is Zotz i got that and the continent is Hossin, but when is it? I don't plan to run in the race, but if this is gonna be a race with a massive attack on Zotz right after it then I'd like to be there to make things a little bit more interesting. You could just PM me and tell me only when it is. I swear I won't tell any one else. Not that you believe me but I try. I'd just like to be a dedicated annoyance throughout the race. the teams could learn to look out for me and avoid my traps, you know, add a bit of a challenge to it.

Lonehunter · 2003-07-21, 05:52 PM

I think there will be plenty of challenge without you

, no enemies should know when the race is in advance.

Edit: Airlift shoud PM the race time to the contestants when he's ready

Cauldron Borne · 2003-07-21, 07:20 PM

hmmmm.... maybe. I was just interested. Thought is would be a good thing to try out my mines with. haven't used convetionals in a while and thought it would be fun. Oh well. I'll probably wind up on some other continent when it finally kicks off anyway and miss it all. Wont even get to 'greet' the winner.

Sign up at the site under "know when it is so i can crush it"

If it was extended to VS i would have a team in about 2 minutes
