Title: Daring Do Dash! [Racing event]
Post by: MishkaL1138 on December 20, 2010, 01:53:56 pm
From PlaneShift events calendar:

History of Holiday / Purpose:Test the speed of your mount and your skills as a rider at these low key informal races.

How is it Celebrated: Meet at the race track in front of the Explorers outpost and race either the oval track or the figure 8 track. Feeling confident in your abilities, how about a little wager to make things more interesting. And if you aren't racing yourself come watch and enjoy the spectacle.

Location:Race track on Bronze Doors Road 2 in front of the Explorers Outpost.

Host: Mishka Laralkes (MishkaL1138)



Now, the event.

Daring Do Dash!

Get your mounts ready to run in this racing event organized by Mishka, from The Warriors guild! Test your drifters or rivnaks in a series of races to determine who is the best racer of the Dome.


For the European players:

Date: January 9th
Hour: 00:00 GMT

For all American players:
Date: January 8th
Hours:

Entry fee: 7,500 trias (30 circles, if you can afford a mount you can pay that… I think)
Prizes: I'm not telling! I promise I will once I know the number of racers.

If you want to race, send me a PM here (http://www.hydlaaplaza.com/smf/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=38859) or /tell any of my characters in game:
(http://psstatus.uglyhorst.de/Mishka,Jecewie,Sereenya,Ilaro.png)



Now, the details.

Rivnaks and drifters allowed. NO CHEATING!! Strafing (vectorial running) allowed. No jumping over the barrels. DON'T USE SPELLS WHILE RACING!! They can lag people very badly and make them lose unfairly. If a player is caught using spells before the start of the race, he'll be asked to leave and will be disqualified *losing his/her entry fee*

Races will use the circular and eight-shape models. 3 laps/race. [sorry about the crappy pics, it's the best I could do]

Green line = START
Red line = FINISH

I would do it, but I am still banned till I find HaniX.

Where is it? I'm guessing outside the Explorers Outpost?

Yes - currently the track is built on the road just in front of the Outpost entrance.

That is very annoying. In the last races it happened several times to me that the (hard-disk) lag of re-loading Outpost items made me stumble.

I wonder if the racing track could be relocated a bit further away from the Outpost, so that we don't need to see it.

Or I would have to recommend the participants to limit their visibility distance tightly.

I agree with moving it to the bottom of the hill having it down there people maybe able to watch on the hill and having it down there has more space and is away from the outpost of lag.

you could also lower the distance of draw or assure enough ram can be given as cache use for the os

Or everyone could go buy 4 gigas of ram to replace their original one like I am going to

Hipie do you realize not everyone has money to buy more RAM? At least I don't…

The lag there is due to the campfires present at the Outpots. Remove them for a while, and replace them.

pslaunch => graphics => particles medium

problem solved. if your computer can't handle them then disable them.

Don't force me to cancel the event, plz T__T

I NEED RACERS!!

Also, note: All the interested racers meet there [Explorer's Outpost] ONE HOUR BEFORE the start of the race. Nobody gave me names… so come with the 30 circles and your mount.

I promise there are prizes!

The best way to gather attention is CAPATILS and good prize money.  ;)

Close to midnight during a normal week day? There won't be many "European players" participating, then...

Ara might could be interested, if I can fix all the lag issues I'm having with the new update.
