TDU:C Christmas Gumball 3000 Challenge (PC & 360)

[CarboyZR1]

I remember when I got a model car late by 4 days!!!! That's what you get from UPS.

[Car Freak]

I have a suggestion: instead of just one overall Gumball winner, maybe we should also have a few Stage and Day winners as well, so the rest of us wouldn't feel so bad

OK, well I was going to have individual stage winners and an overall Gumball winner :) So don't worry.

 

However only the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd overall places have permission to put it in their signature.

[CarboyZR1]

When they called they said it was in Northern New Jersey so it should be here by Friday. Hopefully Monday at the most.

My scale model car was shipped from Avon, MA and arrive at my house in Medford 2-4 days late. The whole shipment was only 30 miles. Useless UPS.

[Car Freak]

I would think so...

 

Anyway, what's the timings gonna be like? Or is it still too early to say?

[Telos]

Yeah, still just the two of us but what the hell...let's do it anyway. What times (in GMT) would be good for you KTF67?

[Iced_Bullet]

Anyway lets get this thread back on topic. Is the Gumball still going on for the 360?

Yes, However only if yourself and Telos make it so. You could PM people here, and you can invite people from other forums here.

Right well, to fit in with my social life, and yours, I was thinking about saying that you'd have to get up at 6am on the 28th December. I know the final spread sheet is not up yet, however I keep making little tweaks to it, so there's no point. I will upload it tonight though :)

I'll leave the times and sorting out of dates up to you and KTF67

[Sensei]

What time will it be? Well to compensate for the time zone loss that some people have, just start it at like 10pm GMT. We can go on into the night and go to bed whenever it finishes, that way it starts at 2pm for GMT-8 (far west USA timezone) people and they can eat their lunch then play after, we can eat our dinner and play after. All's fair.

Yeah, Carboys is not really the problem, as he prefers to cruise at around 8pm GMT (GMT - 5) [3pm for him] as his parents don't like him cruising late. It's Car Freak's time zone that is difficult (GMT +8). So If we start ar 10pm GMT, then he will have to get up at 6am. Which is much better, as previsouly he had to get up at 3/4am ....

 

Each day is around 1 hour, so it doesn't take up too much time, and also means that Car Freak can get to schoool (or whereever if he needs to on that day).

[Blazingfirespeed151]

is There Any Chance I could Participat? Cause it sounds wicked

[Iced_Bullet]

Right, as I said on official forums Ill try and fit you in. Are you free on 28th and 30th December?

 

The one on the 28th December would start at around 8pm GMT and the one on the 30th would start at around 10pm GMT. Please, if yo can come on those dates, state what car you'd like to be in. C Class (or below) restriction for 28th and no restriction for 30th. Please don't go for a 575 though, as we already have 3 of these ...

 

 

 

[mutter] how unimaginative [/mutter]

[Blazingfirespeed151]

Ill see if i can do the 28th Dec 8pm GMT Im hoping cause im usally off by then but ill try

[Iced_Bullet]

Yeah ... could you do both days? Look on the table in the 2nd post in this thread. There you'll find a table of the days that the Gumball is taking place over.

 

It may look confussing, however it's fairly simple. Stage 1 will take place on 23rd (for everyone) and stage 2 will be on 27th/28th (depending on which group you're in for that stage). and stage 3 is on 30th or the 1st (dependant on which group you select for that stage).

[iBilo]

I would do it for the 360 but I would forget. :P

[Iced_Bullet]

Edit: Since it will be just the two of us (or maybe more) can we drive any car for all 3 days?

You can make your own rules up, change stages and days ... etc. But changing the map is kinda pointless haha!

[Blazingfirespeed151]

ohh...umm i cant really then :( sorry Illl see if i can do next one

[Sensei]

Car_Freek is GMT+8? It's unusual to get people from GMT+ areas. I'm used to working with anyone from GMT-5/6/7/8 (North and South American Timezones).

 

Where's CarFreek from then? THe only countries in GMT+8 is China, Northa Korea and Western Australia...

Singapore ;)

[Sensei]

Wow, that's a new one for me. :)

[Iced_Bullet]

Everything is Closed!! And Stage 7 Video Directions

 

As I will be going away from tomorrow morning until 20th evening. This means that I would have little time to change things etc. So therefore all the cars, dates and times are non-changable now :)

 

I will now upload the final times and dates where people are compteing.

 

(see second post in 5 mins for video and final listings)

[S71NG3R]

I'm very sorry to say Iced my family have changed their plans and I'm not going to make some dates. :(

 

It will be easier for all I think to say I'm out, it's too late to change anything now.

 

Sorry for the late notice I have just found out myself. Sorry if this upsets your arrangements.

 

I can't apologize enough and wish I had control of my family but I don't think even god could control my family.

 

So good luck with this and have fun.

[CarboyZR1]
