Just sorting out the 1st round matches now, will post more info shortly. Sorry slight delay on this some possible late entries, I will post the first round draw tomorrow.
Ok Round 1 will consist of 11 leagues with 3 players in each league. You will all play 3 matches & score 2 points for finishing first & 1 point for 2nd. The player with the most points after the 3 races goes through to the 2nd round. You will each take it in turn to start a race. Race 1 Player A in the league starting the first race on Bump in the Round & inviting Player B & then C in order. Race 2 Player B will start a race on Hangtime & send an invite to Player C & A in that order. Race 3 Player C will start a race on Flip Out & send an invite to Player A & then B in that order. Player A in the group will have the responsibility to ensure that races have started in the correct order & must also inform me via email or twitter of the result. Player A will also wait till all 3 races at the start are on him to play his turn so he can then perform his move on all 3 tracks in one sitting. This will ensure the races are completed quickly because when-ever player B or C play their turns they can do so on all 3 races. If anybody has any questions on the above contact me.

I've started my race, and kevlar started one in our group as well. Just waiting on Kiwi to start his, and then all three games in our group will be underway.
Excellent, I've started my game in league 3. Hope this goes well, the last time I played in an organised league it went tits up straight away, it only takes 1 person to screw it up. What are the plans to deal with held up games?
The tourney has already started, but you should ask gospvg if you could take a spot if one of the players who signed up doesn't participate.
This Looks like lots of fun and seems like there's quite an online community playing! I'll go download it and get involved too
League 11 has started. We are waiting on Sessile to take their turn and begin the 3rd race. As of this post it's been 5 hours since the first race began and we are still waiting on Sessile. 5 hours is no biggie (although I wish it were moving faster), its when it becomes 1 day, 2 days, etc... is when it starts getting irritating. Gotta give someone the benefit of the doubt though, they may be in a completely different timezone than you. Haha, in other words, don't expect me to jump up at 2am in the morning when I'm asleep to take my turn. Good Luck everyone, hope all goes well.
I'm player B in a league, still waiting for player A to initiate. Would it be okay to initiate my game now to get that person's attention or do I have to wait for him/her to see this thread?
Yes I think there is a mixture of US & European players so timezone will make a difference. Just ensure you wait till on all three races are at your turn before playing your go on all of them. This will keep them all in sync.
Laleaf and I are waiting for you in 2 games, you have to create the 3rd game before laleaf plays the first move in game 1, and his move in the game I created, the goal being that he plays his 3 moves one after another to keep all games in sync.
: ) I was explaining the sync of the games yesterday to another player who could not understand why he had to wait to play his turns. WOOT - Post 100 : )
Any word from Sessile gospvg? Maybe send him an email 'bump'? I see no sense in joining a league if you're not going to take your turn in over 24 hours.
