The Hero Summer Games Has Arrived!

well, just got my alt ready for the skyway dash. Decided to go with the kin. defender, so I'll either leave all others behind in a cloud of dust, or ( more probably ) die in about half a second.

A quick recap of what happened tonight...

A number of us turned up for the race at 6PM (UK Time) in Skyway (as advertised in the OP). There was no sign of 1Damz so we hung around until 7 PM. By then .Magma Man had arrived but there was still no contact with 1Damz so rather than waste the fact that we turned up we decided to race anyway, using an honesty policy and .Magma Man as the official starter, running from the north of the zone to the Green Line T.

The result of the race was:

1st DB-48124 (@Judgement Dave)
2nd 119 (@MiG)
3rd death runner (@amasing flame)

We can only assume that there was some problem for 1Damz but are also assuming that the result will stand...

Gratz to DB and all competitors. My plan of using a kin to use Syphon Speed got off to a great start, popped a couple of yellow infs and got a succesfull hit on a purple troll. Racing way ahead of the field everything was looking good for a podium finish, until I got Tesla caged by a clockwork, and then killed. Lying on the ground saw DB race past, ressed self, tried to SS clockwork, and promptly died again. Gratz to all who took part, and thanks to Magma Man for acting as race supervisor.

We also hope everything is okay with Damz

The Skyway Dash

Well at something like 19:10 and still no sign of Damz we had a race (hoping that the results will stand) watched over by .Magma Man.

The turn out wasn't quite as big as it could have been, but we saw 6 participants in the race. Only 6 turning up did mean that we could all join one team (along with Magma Man as our judge) and so could see everyone's progress on the map.

Seeing everyone on the map is odd as you can see how far behind everyone else you are! Seriously...

Ernst Uder (in particular) seemed to get away to a great start - I know as I was eating his dust and seeing him whizz away into the distance... I didn't get everyone's powersets, but he must have been a kin... I had Ernst down as winning (and me in 3rd or 4th place) until they got flattened by the mobs.

Luckily for me, their death happened just as my siphon speed recharged and this time several yellows and purples meant it actually hit...

Anyway... the race was quite close with the following results:
1st DB-48124 (me)
2nd 119 (@MiG)
3rd Death Runner (@Amasing Flame)

Runnerbot (Heart Attack on the forums), Ernst Uder (Blue Peter?) and Runrunfastfast also put in sterling performances.


Sure that all the competitors hope that everything's fine with Damz... and that they were only kept away by dodgy technology issues.

Faultline Diving

Gather up, gather up! Time to have a little dive into the polluted waters of Faultline! On a specific road on the edge you must use /e backflip and do a perfect backflip right into the water! The most perfect backflip wins!

Like it?
