I hope you plan on getting demos recorded of the races. Maybe compile the best views throughout each race as an .avi, then let us non-participants get a good view of the carnage. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Maybe if the server will allow a few extra people, have people perched in good vantage points to record the action.

Have at least a few [ECK] interested, need to see if we'll have the interest to make a full five. Anyone know when 'the next few days' entails? Practice time and all that. If a team comes up short, is there any provision for a participant (say, the one running the first leg) to take a second leg later on the course? Or are five required for the relay.
Also, Comprox.. is switching your view to 'ceiling cling' mode allowable (pitching your view over so you're looking at the world upside down)?
Better question.. due to the date on the original post, was this just an April Fool prank post? Wanna make sure before we go out and lay plans. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
It was posted on April 2nd, and no, this is for real. As for flipping your view over, ehh, this is for fun, and people whining about you using some h4x I dont need, so no <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> Sorry
Since 'world-reversal' isn't allowed, just as note to everyone... fire up Cheating Death. It caps the two variables in question (cl_pitchup and cl_pitchdown) to 0-89, stopping the trick from working.
I would absolutely like to joina a team. I am h3nkos and I'm from sweden! I dont come by the forums very often, but I have been playing pretty much since 6 days after the first version was released.
Dread, you are from finland right? Can I join your team?
edit: I just want to get this clear.. is jumping allowed? as in beetween walls or anything?
Read the rules on the first page. It is allowed. But I noticed one thing. How are we supposed to know who to bite and tag your relay partner? I mean seriously, all skulks look the same, so for all I know my opponent might have just tagged me thinking I was his/her partner, from there I mistakenly run my path. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

Curiosity speaking, how is 'floor' defined? Because at least one spot on Tanith shows the course going through Cargo, into that little notch thing with the steam on top... like a septic blowhole or something. Would the center-top of that need to be touched, or could you just zip from door to door along the wall?
Is 'floor' just anything that a non-JP Marine will usually not reach, without something like a crouch-jump? Know that boxes are fair game, but it needs a little clearing up so hopefuls won't practice an unneccessary, non-viable, or illegal path.
(edit) Just came to mind, but is running on other contestants allowed? Such as if one falls off, and you fall as well... but you land on the other person. Would you be permitted to jump off back to the wall (or the opposite wall), not counting as a floor-touch? (/edit)
I mean.. so many ceilings have struts and all kinds of stuff going around. And skulks navigate 90 degree turns very badly.
Speed here is not the issue.. it's positioning skills. This would be a lot easier with leap though <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
A floor is a floor. If its a ledge, its ok <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> And yes, you can hop of another guys back all you want, as long as you dont hit the floor!
Any word on the odds of the event happening during the weekends? Or still not enough teams to determine? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

You are not allowed to leap at all. You can jump onto another wall if it follows the race path.
Sycophant,
I plan to record my run if I get in.
Care to be on my team?
