Multi player with a given car in a given time range on a given day...that gives the best chance to match you up with Dark.... Still takes some chance but should help in getting the TA community racing each other. I have done this with a buddy on FB and it matches us up every race. But we sync it while on FB ya know EDIT: Imagine some folks seeing RB Dark, BEA, and others in the lobby at the same time...THey be like oh man I am out
Hey man -- great idea, and super fun! I could only jump in for a bit near the end. Just long enough for you win best 2 out of 3 Did some other TA crew show up earlier?
For the Car Challenge today, here are the results: Running Bird: Temple Drive - Won The Great Wall - Won Barcelona - Won Venice - Won Dlusion: Tokyo - Lost BeaArthursGhost: Alps: Won Venice: Lost The Great Wall: Won
Very cool guys...I just got home after some fathers day activities and saw the results that at least a few of you all made the hook up...
It'd be cool if a few of these matches could be recorded, just for posterity (I'd also like to see the winning times obtained with the Mini Cooper). I would have liked to participate, but unfortunately the iPad on which A8 is installed is out of town until next Saturday.
This isn't a bad idea at all. It just needs a little readjusting with the points you win and this could work. Nice job guys. Too bad people playing on Android devices can't join iOS lobbies, would have been even more fun. Imagine a lobby filled with Toucharcadians, and some random guy joins in. He would freak out instantly
*sigh* The first race, I made a mistake (botched that diagonal jump where the tunnel splits), which allowed you take me out. The other three, though, there was nothing I could have done to win. (Then again, I'm kind of glad it went that way. I wasn't there with the RB account, but with my new measly 1600+ points account. So if I had won, it would have cost you more points than it should.)
Alright, I got the weekly schedule planned out. Schedule: 4 nights a week Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday 3pm-5pm EST The schedule starts today since it is Monday. Car for today is the Nissan 370z. Side note: Suggestions on cars used (some people might not have certain cars maxed) and CC time switch ups would be greatly appreciated.
Dark-Zero, there's a downside to the bookkeeping aspect of these informal events (bookkeeping is a hobby of yours, right?): Usually, when you race someone and you both finish the race at approximately the same time, then tap your way to the next race, you have a pretty good chance to get an instant re-match. That never happened last night, presumably because it took you a minute to jot down the results after each race. And that's a bummer, because it means I'll only encounter you once every half hour or so, even though we're both online in the same car the whole time. I raced that "V" guy three times as often during the same time span. Oh well, at least that gives me enough races to recover the points I lose to you.
Is there really only one tournament going on right now? (German Cup) I also am not seeing results and don't think I got rewards on Germany vs England Round 2.
Bookkeeping isn't a hobby but I do it for things I deem important. All I do is take a picture so it only takes me a split second. What causes the delay is if I finish a lot sooner than someone, I try to time when to re-search or the win streak unlock delays me. I also raced the "V" guy a lot.
I think if the goal is to race as often as possible...once you all encounter each other there needs to be a set time interval that takes place after each race before you all jump back into the lobby. Me and a buddy do this via FB message and it works everytime.
Hello! Fabien_GL Are you still alive after the NETHERLANDS 5 x 1 SPAIN Gameloft could inspire on that FIFATV animation and give us a Track in Rio, because only Cups with World Cup theme is boring... http://youtu.be/JP67IM1LX-M P.S. Gameloft should priorize A8 TA Forum for new info, because we are the most active A8 forum. Even more than A8 Facebook... We talk about this game 24/7
Being a pedant here, but we're in Daylight Saving Time, so EST doesn't apply. It's EDT...though people rarely use it. The workaround...just say ET.
