Topic: RACEATHON - Warsow Race Competition - Finished! Results up!

The RACEATHON team invite you to participate in our very first Warsow race competition!

When:
Starting: January 18th (Thursday) 19.00 GMT (20.00 CET, 14.00 EST)
Ending: January 21st, 2007 (Sunday) 20.00 GMT (21.00 CET, 15.00 EST)

Where:
#RACEATHON and this thread!

How:
Three Warsow race maps by BardoK, Jezus, and Kriuq will be made for this competition only. You'll have exactly 24 hours on each map. After that no more demos will be accepted.

Why:
Stupid question!

Signup:
There's no signup, just send in your demo in time and you'll be considered as a competitor!

Schedule:
Thursday 19.00 GMT - 1st map released. Done!
Friday 19.00 GMT - 1st round is over. 2nd map released. Done!
Friday 20.00 GMT - 1st round times and placements announced. Done!
Saturday 19.00 GMT - 2nd round is over. 3rd map released. Done!
Saturday 20.00 GMT - 2nd round times and placements announced. Done!
Sunday 19.00 GMT - 3rd round is over. Done!
Sunday 20.00 GMT - Tournament over, prize ceremony! Done!

Submitting demos:
Please include your nick, mapname and time in the demoname. If you want to go for the style contest, please indicate this in the demoname as we'll only watch the demo with your best time. Try to keep the demos short for our convenience. You can use a bind like: 

bind <key> "stop;spec;join;record <demoname>"

to record a new demo each run (just don't forget to save the good runs!). Demos should be uploaded here

Rules:
*No time resets allowed.
*sv_pure 1 on.
*Standard Warsow physics.
*No GB-jumps allowed.

Timezones:
CET=GMT+1
EST=GMT-5

Prizes:
The honour! There'll be one overall champion and one for the coolest demo. The coolest demo can be an imaginative route, a general cool style or just having lots of luck! The overall champion will be the one with the lowest total time.

Contact:
IRC channel
This forum thread

Last words:
We encourage people to keep their demos and times for themselves. It'll be so much more fun and exciting with people eagerly waiting for a score list to be uploaded! Besides, you don't want anyone to steal your route, now do you?

Updates:
1st map released
2nd map released
3rd map released

Re: RACEATHON - Warsow Race Competition - Finished! Results up!

Yup, I'm planning on doing what I normally do for maps (it should be easy to finish, but not too easy to get a good time)
However, if we do a couple of these and they start getting popular I may start making harder ones ;]

Re: RACEATHON - Warsow Race Competition - Finished! Results up!

I don't believe so... you might want to rename the demos yourself as I do not believe Warsow can do that... sorry... BE CAREFUL that you do not over-ride any of your good demos wink...

Re: RACEATHON - Warsow Race Competition - Finished! Results up!

Really? Well I'm planning to do this map not in that visual style, but using the textures I used to use (krace2,4,5).

As long as you don't use the textures from krace7 I'm game. That map makes me feel sick for some reason.
