I want to bring to everyone's attention - due to recent time change in US ("Daylight Saiving Time", 1 hour), it is possible that the event post may show an inaccurate time of the tournament's start for you (as stated at the top of discussion).
Please make note of this and pose any questions you may have here or to me so we can ensure everyone is aware of proper start time :)

Looks great RayZ, thanks so much for offering it :D

Thanks for understanding TwicH :)

引用自 RayZ：

Can I protest on this decision, Garf?

Yes. Upon further consideration, I'm sorry to say, but tbh I haven't had as much fun as usual in past 2 tournaments due to drama nonsense, and I don't truly trust your claim to not cause any TwicH, so I'm sorry, at least for now I am rescinding on my decision to let you join.

Especially with regards to your previous comments on this group's page that were reported (for good reason), I think it's fair to deny you access to (at least) my tournament until your behavior has been shown to have improved.

引用自 Sir TwicH：

Is it cool if I join or atleast be a replacer if it's already full? I promise I won't start any drama. I just want to have fun.

Yes, I will sign you up, but please heed the rules regarding disruptive behavior:

"- Though I truly do not wish to, if a player is continually disruptive or confrontational in private chat, in-game, or in group chat, actions may have to be taken against said player (e.g. warnings potentially leading to a disqualification). So PLEASE do your best to behave well so that we all can have fun :)"

If anything even remotely on-par with what you said in the 2 reported posts I saw come up, or any other disruptive or confrontational behavior arises (in-game, in groupchat, or in private messages), I will be forced to remove you from the tournament.

That being said - I hope you're able to have fun :)

10th place must record the 3rd Episode of Jazz Jackrabbit 1 in Turbo Difficulty. Just kidding.

Hahaha love the idea xD

Haha xD everyone is free to join, provided they are nice to others, we all wanna have fun :)

Understandable, not for everyone, but normal tournament later in the month :) and yeah, would love to have PeeJay join :D as well as everyone else too of course xD

I've pinned this discussion so that we as a group can possibly further figure out the rules for a possible Team Tournament this coming December, hosted by Luna/Tom. Please feel free to add suggestions/comments :)

*****IMPORTANT EDIT, PLEASE READ*****
It has come to my attention that, due to a recent hour-change in time in the US and other countries (Daylight Saving Time) that the event time posted on the event page

found here

may be inaccurate for some users. For me it is still 2 PM (1400), but for one other user when it was supposed to be 4 PM (1600) it was instead 5 PM (1700). So please, to ensure no confusion regarding the start-time of the tournament, either message me or make a post in the comments to help you confirm the start-time for you, as I wish for no one to miss the tournament due to a simple time miscommunication xD
Hopefully this is either a temporary issue with Steam servers or an issue we can resolve by communicating with each other, so please feel free to message me/add me + message me if you have any questions, and I will do my best to help :D

WELCOME! to Dr. Unkfield's 3rd BOOST RACE tournament, using Epona's rules.

The tournament will take place on Saturday, November 12th at 7PM UK Time (GMT +1:00) (the same time as most previous tournaments - check the event post here to see the start time for your own local timezone - if enough people can agree on a different time that works best for all/most, feel free to suggest and we may change it! :D).
- Anyone is free to join - simply post a comment below indicating your desire to sign up, either definitely or as a maybe/replacer, and your name will be added to the list! :D

1. All 21 (including Outrun Bay) normal tracks will be played in random order [game mode will be BOOST RACE].
- Qualifying round will be 10 tracks.
- Finals/bracket round will be 10 tracks.
- A bonus track will be played if a tie results (or if people just want to do 1 more race for fun).

2. Qualifications for the Finals
- 2 Lobbies = Top 5.
- 3 Lobbies = Top 3. The 10th spot will be decided by points, or a tiebreaker will determine the last qualifier if needed.
- Tournaments generally last around 2 hours and 30 minutes on average. Please note that any more rounds would extend it by quite a bit.
***Please note that, in my experience, the tournament can be difficult and slow to start up, as many people (since we come from all over) live in different timezones and may not show up quite on time - I ask that all participants try their best to be patient and understanding as we begin to set up the tournament, and do your best to show up 15-30 minutes ahead of time to expedite the process. But once we get going, it should go quite smoothly.

3. The host of the lobby will start the next race as soon as everyone has had the opportunity to say "ready" or "not ready" in Steam group chat. If you do not speak in chat within 5 minutes of the previous race ending, the host is allowed to start the race without you having said you are ready; additionally, the host will assume you're not ready if your character is on random, but if you have already picked a character, the race will start within 5 minutes.
- These 5 minutes will also be used in case someone has disconnected to give them time to rejoin the lobby.

4. Hosts of the lobbies have the responsibility to take screenshots of the results after every race.
- This is so that if someone disconnects/has a network error/crashes/has to go, their points can be kept. BUT other participants can help too, as sometimes the host misses a screenshot.
- In the event that a person or persons crash during the course of the race, they will be awarded the points earned by their respective bot. HOWEVER, if 5 or more players experience a network error/crash (or if the lobby agrees by consensus), the race can be restarted (even if already completed - in this case, the points of the previous race will be disregarded, and only points from re-race will count).

5. Sign up deadline is TWO (2) hours before the tournament begins.
- If you sign up after that, you are NOT guaranteed a spot (but if someone who signed up doesn't show up, it is possible to join at that time).

6. Be ready to deal with S-class A.I
- Their scores do not count, but their driving/items will SURELY affect the outcome of the races! (and yes, they can be very, very annoying xD)

7. Steam chat will be used to communicate.
- If you're not in the Steam group chat for whatever reason (as stated previously in rule #3) the host will assume you're not ready if your character is on random, but if you have already picked a character, the race will start within 5 minutes.

8. If enough hosts and participants are willing to, there will be a lobby/lobbies besides the finals (brackets).
- This is so that everyone can be ranked in the tournament. Or else only the finalists will be. [thank you for the idea Epona and for posting it NoVa :)]

*****IMPORTANT CHANGE*****
9. Unless there is a general dislike of this, I wish to propose that the roulette NOT BE ALLOWED during this tournament (though feel free to discuss this in the comments, as it can be changed if enough people wish it so). Granted, there are numerous bonuses granted by the roulette from tokens spent that cannot be noticed in-game, so if this rule stays in effect, it will most likely have to be based on the honor-system - meaning we must trust all racers to truthfully not use the roulette.
- Alternatively, as a compromise, roulette could be allowed, but simply no item use (as that is my main wish with regards to this rule). Please let me and others know your thoughts and opinions in the comments below :)

Added notes:
Understand going into this tournament that, many times, bullshit things happen (lag bumps, other weird bugs, apocolypses, etc.) and that this is unfortunately just part of the game. If you express your frustration in a reasonable way, that is fine, but please - do your best to remain civil and sportsman-like, as it will help the tournament be more fun for all participating :D
- Though I truly do not wish to, if a player is continually disruptive or confrontational in private chat, in-game, or in group chat, actions may have to be taken against said player (e.g. warnings potentially leading to a disqualification). So PLEASE do your best to behave well so that we all can have fun :)

***Additionally, if you find this tournament appealing, consider also signing up for RayZ's normal mode tournament! It can be found here, and is to be held later this month on Saturday, November 26th :)
