I have decided on a deadline. 5 days from now.

[Starver]

So long as I've fulfilled all you requested of me...  Tell me if I've missed posting anything again.

[RoseHeart]

(Starver, you've been great.)

[RoseHeart]

"...despite........continues."

[RoseHeart]

"Hot Thing.....Tesla Drone.....Natas...instantly..."

[RoseHeart]

First. I am REALLY surprised at who stuck around.

1 veteran. 1 former boss. 1 newcomer. 1 former ceo.

I suppose the best way to interpret that is that the game has lasting value to old players, new players and people that participated in the side activities.

The two months has passed. By a lot.

Going forward I decided to keep things accountable so that there will be a champion determined in a predictable amount of time, if there is no update for 7 days then the current leader becomes the champion.

While the Panic Race crew have had technical difficulties stay tuned. We're coming back...

Spoiler: I may just jump into the next update before posting the rules review we'll see (click to show/hide)

(My current device hasn't given me problems. That's why I was astonished that it erased at least 4 hours, and chrome just used a much older version of a document I was typing up... I may just jump into the next update before posting the rules review we'll see...)

(Happened when I was going from a WiFi Zone to back onto my network. It required a refresh, and Bam! Back in time. I keep looking at it and saying to myself "I hadn't even done this part yet" ... "I haven't even done this part yet?"
)

Panic Race : Part 2

*Crowd cheering*

*Propeller blades fading away*

Sir, we're back. We have a visual. There are only 3 drivers left:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The green marker is Starver, the brown marker is Potato,
and the grey marker is Zoom Cage.

Where are the rest?

If they arn't showing up, they are no longer a part of the competition.

I see... What about the judge?

Unknown. It can be assumed all penalty devices are no longer in effect.

[RoseHeart]

I finished Tick 6, and I wasn't satisfied with it.

When I started this race, it was the culmination of everything that came before. I had refined stats to pixel perfect representations paired alongside the map. That is gone, and it is too disheartening to recreate.

There was so much excitement between players and myself, and I believe that is why we are still here.

There was a series of unfortunate events, and my depression at the sheer thought of trying to regain what was lost because of these things and time has passed.

I will ask you one more time, do you want to continue? I will not be able to start us from where we were when we left off...

[Starver]

I'm game for it, if the game is game for me.

Suggestion about pixel perfection: If you mean what I think you mean, don't fret. And if you maintain a note of the 'state' at each tick (player positions, player stats, etc) you can 'plug them in', at a later date, to any revamped graphics (howeverso manually or automatically you are generating them) and so re-apply tweaked (but informatically identical) images back over all prior images that you weren't 100% happy with.

But it's your baby, with your own heart put into it. I'll work with whatever you do. It's an intriguing game (and, different though it is, reminds me of something like this, though maybe not that exact version and I've seen horse-racing versions too, which I remember playing when young) and I'm sure we can do it justice (as players) if you give us a chance. And that includes you keeping on with the tweaks, as far as I'm concerned.

The only thing I'd suggest is you make more use of "hurry up" penalties for absentee/forgetful players. Should I fall off the 'net for a week (not impossible; I'm fairly mobilely connected to pick up the slack, but I've had occasional days at a time offline that people here may or may not have noticed), I wouldn't mind (and would expect!) being forced to continue as per my prior moves (give or take GM-calculated randomised changes) rather than holding back play for others. Then you could plan to work on 'moves' every Saturday morning (or whatever time you are usually free) for final finessing and publishing every Saturday evening, and think about your design changes (including further refining your method of penalties!) whilstsoever you can fit it in the rest of the time.  (You could even work out how to use the auto-turn method to run minor-boss and/or zerging 'drone players', just to add more NPC opponents if there aren't enough player-opponents for your liking.)


But that's not to say you need to take any of that as your direction of development, just riffing on my thoughts while I'm posting. I now shall sit back and await anything and everything you actually plan!

[RoseHeart]

Alright guys, Starver, Hellfire, it's down to you two. What we are gunna do is close up shop. A duel is great, but it should be earned(in combat, not just deep lungs). Potato you say you are up for anything. Starver, you're about the races. Well I now know this. I don't know what tomorrow will bring us. But I know two great guys to keep in mind.

Congrats on making it to the end, champs.

PILOT BIO
"Wheelie" was a stunt motorcyclist, until he tried out a even more unstable machine. A plummy friend of his said "Really?", in his affected manner, and the handle stuck. But never the machine.

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION
Light, fast and unstable (or, worse, far [i]too[/i] stable at speed) except in the hands of an expert, this is a ride-in motor-monowheel, it's necessarily rugged enough by design to drive but offers few opportunities to add further protection, and forces any direct weaponry to be held precariously and vulnerably out of the sides, whether hand-held or frame-mounted.

SPECIAL DESCRIPTION
A twist of the controls, and the wheel projects spikes for added tenacity. On ground or over an enemy, just so long as it doesn't snag stuck, spinning the rider in his seat until the vibrations dislodge it again.

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION

SPECIAL DESCRIPTION
Demonic repossession: By activating his Fucks Kapacitor, Setting the radio Station to 666.7FM and Raiseing his middle fingers to the sky, he can tear a hole to the underworld, where, thankfully space is roughly reduced to 1/3'd, Allowing him to go thrice as far. the portal remains open for a little while afterwards, but it is not recommended to go through after him as one may come out lacking some parts if their vehicle isn't designed for the demonic realm's rather... Opportunistic Looters.

Ok, I am going to open a free drive mode while I finish preparing. This is a track where you can drive and shoot, though doing damage will just give points and remove them. So it's just for fun.

This is like a demo / beta, so there will be constant updates.

Submit a character sheet to participate.
