11 May 2008, 20:11

+1 distraction, but it's still cool cuz it's a good way to show the new guys here to start with climb/bhop not lj

11 May 2008, 20:12

go jumper! XJ staff ftw.

11 May 2008, 20:13

easy money for brian

11 May 2008, 20:17

Nice :P

11 May 2008, 20:22

Hopefully this will be successful! One question though, are the maps going to become official, or are they exclusively for the pro challenge?

11 May 2008, 20:23

nice we will enjoy fo sho i was thinking what happened to the pro challenge before 1 day and now here it is gogo jumpers

11 May 2008, 20:29

Mr.Jumper
11 May 2008, 21:01

I ve won this challenge on Climbers-germany.de about 2months ago. It was a great pleasure to take part and it was fun :) Nice copy btw. @ XJ management

11 May 2008, 21:05

We had the XJ Pro-Challenge before CG made it, so CG actually copied from XJ... But who cares anyway? CG is a _NATIONAL_ communty, this one is international. There is no competition... So stop the kindergarden behaviour right away kkthx... This one is different and much more innovative anyway

11 May 2008, 21:05

cool :D

11 May 2008, 21:10

yea cool : o

11 May 2008, 21:23

NOT cool.

11 May 2008, 21:26

Also faker the difference between Pro Challenge #1 and the C-G Tournament #1 was the prices. The Tournament was made that the jumpers has fun to climb in the community and to get something for it, instead of getting rich from the payment. The C-G Tournament #2 between C-G Tournament #1 & Pro Challenge #1 was something to build up a new inovative idea for the community which wants new maps. So i had an idea for the Tournament #2 that the official C-G mappers should be involved. I asked them, they agreed. After that TROUbl3m4k3R and I were planing the concept and after that we started the tournament on the 10th of february. The Concept was simple for anyone. Every new Sunday/Monday a new map for the tournament, so that they don't need a keyword to submit a demo. The maps were built by the official C-G mappers DaMp, DyleT2 & dEMolite. The prices were things that could be used in the internet because the concept of the tournament said: Jump has fun! And not Jump get payed. Now the difference between the C-G Tournament #2 and the XJ Pro Challenge #2 are exactly the same with some changes: The Prices, only mapper and a roundtime of 1month instead of a week. So if the user can count to 3 or over 3, he will notice that most of the concept is like the C-G Tournament #2. And also: This one is different and much more innovative anyway This one isn't different. It is only in some aspects different. Innovative? Wau nice XJ stole another idea and give it as their own without mention the community which build up the concept, thats really quite innovative *Thumbs up!*. It was innovative in the beginning of the C-G Tournament #2 but now it isnt anymore. And now the users can think over that post, XJ can give me a warning or even a ban about this post but what i have wrote is the truth and nothing more as truth!

11 May 2008, 21:49

who cares btw the map is a rea challenge

11 May 2008, 21:50

go reAti........ you're good on the xtreme bhop maps <3

11 May 2008, 22:04

GL

11 May 2008, 22:05

Ultra Hard map. For Pro players only.

11 May 2008, 22:09

ROFL, nice!

11 May 2008, 22:10

dEMolite: First of all I have to mention that you guys didn't reinvent the wheel, did you? [b]XJ Pro-Challenge 1[/b] was the first concept that made people record maps independently from any record section. The task was to record a map as fast as possible in a certain time. About the [b]CG Tournament[/b]: I knew there was a tournament at CG (95% of the community doesn't), but I wasn't really interested so I didn't check it closer. All I did was downloading the maps and play them. Most of them were pretty bad anyway... 2 of them were pretty cool tho... I think Dylet and dEMolite's ones... After checking what your tournament was about I can honestly say: You guys DID copy the XJ Pro-Challenge #1! The main task was to beat maps independently from the record section as fast as possible, in a certain time. Sounds pretty much like the XJ Pro-Challenge 1, doesn't it? The only TWO new ideas you had were: - You made your own maps for each round. - People got different points for different times... Anyway, the faster the better, so it wasn't that "innovative" anyway. So basicaly your Tournament was copy of XJ's Pro-Challenge at all, with some new ideas tho... [b]XJ Pro-Challenge 2[/b] has a totally new and innovative task: The isolate the skills you need to be a good KZ player and to search the best player in each categorie (bhop, longjump, countjump, climbing (fast/hard) etc. The maps are just a means to an end. We could've chosen 5 of the most popular bhop maps as well, but we rather had our own _GOOD_ maps for the competition. Those maps have special theme and a special challenge (according to the skills, like bhop or longjump). That's something completely different, isn't it? Btw... the concept was elaborated in a process of 2 days brainstorming. I didn't spend one single thought about the CG Tournament... Well, that's it for now. I guess I could disprove all your faulty arguments... To be honest... Im sick of the CG attitude. You guys think you've reinvented the wheel and everyone does copy from your site. In fact 90% of the communty don't even visit CG regularely and there are a lot of things YOU copied from other sites (demo section... player profiles etc... kzusa/gangien's site had it first). P.S: From your bourgeois point of view: kzfi was the first national community out there. So roughly speaking CG is a simple copy of kzfi... Get my point?

11 May 2008, 22:11

a bhop map... how surprising...

11 May 2008, 22:12

Yay finally another prochallange...nice work faker, radon & tintin <3....will be interesting to see who ends up winning :)

11 May 2008, 22:21

so demolite if a comunity makes a mapping contest and then another comunity makes a mapping contest 2 months after.. it is copying ? i guess it is in your eyes, why not just be happy instead of finding something negative in everything :/

11 May 2008, 22:22

jesus christ the map is hard ;D took me 2 hours to get thorugh it lmao!!! don't think ill participate with that nubtime ;D

11 May 2008, 22:23

Hm, i wish if that will be good

11 May 2008, 22:27

haha gl hf!

11 May 2008, 22:48

no radon: that wouldn't be a copy if they are starting a mapping contest, but it would be a copy if they start one with the same theme. to faker: i can argument the whole posts about the Pro #1 and Tournament #2 because Tournament #2 was a bit similier to Tournament #1 & Pro #1. But i wont argument the whole post from faker here in the comments because it would exceed the limits of the e107 comments system.

11 May 2008, 22:56

*missed text above*: but i will make a revamp posts between all sos tournament posts that you guys will see that the c-g tournament isnt a copy of pro challenge!

11 May 2008, 23:01

reati will win

11 May 2008, 23:34

hahaha i knew it:D I saw and read the newspost, told myself "I'm sure the flaming will start sooner or later, watched two movies and here it is, quicker then I expected. Thank you for not disappointing me ^_- Seriously why is this all needed? Coming up with something [b]completely new and unseen[/b] isn't really possible considering the fact that we develop by improving something that we already have and it's all linked together. Instead of flaming you could suggest an improvement... And btw who cares who's idea is this? It's interesting challenge and I would participate if my skills allowed me to :> Imo this will also give the motivation for many jumpers to stop geeking lj maps and try to finish something with timer... About the name I thinks it's called Pro Challenge cuz it will determine the "pro" among all the other in the already mentioned by faker categories and the pro jumper overall. So commenting the name is kinda pointless. OK. That was all from me and I'm looking forward to some nice demos :> cuz this map took me 1 and half hour to finish it :/

11 May 2008, 23:39

ye, st0ka you're right. Ill quote the content page: [i]Even if you think you can't beat the map at all, you will get better by simply playing it... Some of the maps aren't designed to get beaten at the very first attempt. Don't forget, there is one month time to submit your demo! It will be amazing to see what you are capable of with only one month of exercise. That's what a REAL challenge is about. Don't give up![/i] Everyone of you guys can become a "pro" by practise. When I played the map for the first time I couldn't beat it either... I even asked radon if he could make it easier :D Practise is the key.

11 May 2008, 23:41

nice !!!

b0lkar
12 May 2008, 00:05

rly nice !! :)

12 May 2008, 00:09

honestly I must say that a tournament includes the faster the better and stuff so I think CG hasnt copied the xj pro challenge at all. and this creating map thing is copied from xj (no hate, its nice) and was done by cg before like deMolite said it. and I really like this one and I think all cg tournament maps were really nice, so its really nice that xj is doing the same now, its really funny I think :] so cool decision if you ask me

12 May 2008, 00:11

Let me start by saying that I've been loling in my seat for a few minutes now.. Erhm. http://xtreme-jumps.eu/comment.php?comment.news.692 http://xtreme-jumps.eu/news.php?extend.689 Credit where credit is due my friends. [blockquote]Xtreme-Jumps is challenging you! Yes thats right, all you pro jumpers out there are soon going to be put to the test. Fire has decided that each week he will post a map up and challenge one of the pro's or a group of pros. At the end of the week if the jumper has beaten the record Fire will be sending the player 5$(possibly more if the challenge is xtreme.) via paypal. If its a group of jumpers the one with the fastest time at the end of the week gets the money! So be prepared. You could be getting challenged! Fire is also taking request for challenges![/blockquote] But good luck with the new challenges I hope they are a success.

12 May 2008, 00:57

NICEEE

The pillar part in the second part is near impossible. Might as well just make up do 260 ljs or something. Was on that part for 10 min alone.

12 May 2008, 01:38

fire teh geek. nice map to geek your ass on. hf

12 May 2008, 01:48

Not the tournament is the challenge. The map is the challenge!!!! Fucking hard map....:D

12 May 2008, 03:23

wow very nice tornuament.. i will send demos for sure.. (if i can of course) did the map in 40 min or so.. but i cant do the last jump =P and my bhop rec is 241 lol -.- can anyone post a demo for that final jump ? i just dont get it

12 May 2008, 03:27

yeaah!! i did it now ill try a better time :D no need for the demo..

12 May 2008, 03:58

GG geeks, too hard map for me :)

12 May 2008, 10:00

so perfectly true st0ka! As if someone would care about if it is copied or not oO Let's start and we all will hopefully try our best :) Lookin' forward to it.

12 May 2008, 11:17

hard maps are good :) gogo brian/reAti :D

12 May 2008, 12:11

lol dogos the last part was the easiest by far.. (or i was just lucky) on the other hand i could do only a few of the other parts.. some are just too hard well, nice challange.. hope to see some nice demos/winners

12 May 2008, 12:14

first try backwards with no mouse, no keyboard and no screen and having my eyes closed while eating my burger.

12 May 2008, 12:46

Nice project :)

Mentalo
12 May 2008, 13:15

one word: hard xD still its designed pretty fair, so that there are tps in the air

12 May 2008, 13:49

OMG. After reading some of these "Sh*t-like" comments... Minutes of my life i can´t get back :( If someone got a good idea, why shouldn´t others try to do so too? XJ started a Tournament first, then we started ours on cg. That doesn´t mean that we copied all that stuff, as u can´t say that xj did copy anything from our #2 tournament. We had a working upload form for demos etc. before XJ and i would never say they copied something cz they had their own one week later. I hate to read all these useless comments between CG and XJ admins. Good luck 2 all peeps who take part in this Tournament. Map is nice but tooooooo hard 4 me ^^ Cheers

12 May 2008, 15:10

Nice idea!! News about it @ kzfr!!! Hope there will be lots of players!! :)

12 May 2008, 16:23

nothing wrong with the idea or the jumps in the map but I can't see a shit when hi-speed-bhopping cos the textures are like mongooses balls not gonna waste any of my time on that map

12 May 2008, 16:25

Faker, but pro challenge wasn't independent from demo section. To win the pro challenge you had to beat the WR. What i did not like about this post: 1. There's no direct link to expand the news to read more (you have to click on picture). 2. It opens in a new tab.

12 May 2008, 17:23

yay, hope there will be more talking about the prochallenge than about longjumping now :)

12 May 2008, 20:54

i agree with DyleT2. are they saying radon just made the map out of the blue? i guess its possible, but eh.

12 May 2008, 22:05

I agree, that maps have to be hard there, but... But go in my place - emagen there is a community of how much jumpbugs you can do in a row. Now some1 created a jumpbug map with 30 2000speed jumpbugs and rated it "ez". And that's for all map releases. How you wold feel? Anyway - map rate 1. Reason: not f*cking "hard-extreme", but "extreme".

12 May 2008, 22:22

Numb now you can take what you said, separate the sentences and translate in to the modern English language.

12 May 2008, 23:07

emagen. LOL.

13 May 2008, 00:42

Ok. What I wanted to say - make it fair. Or create obout a 100 maps where normal way contains 2000speed jumpbugs and rate them as ez or rate maps how they realy are. P.S. Sry if I wasn't polite in last post. =(

13 May 2008, 01:56

Numb is right. rate maps how they really are, this one is more like "UBER extreme" than "hard-extreme" for most of the users in xj

13 May 2008, 05:12

nah this map was ez.

13 May 2008, 06:25

not only is this map a good bhop map, its perfect for training hard bhop lines for speedmaps :) ive gone from about 75minutes down to about 33minutes in 12 trys. i enjoy this prochallenge map, and i cant wait for the next ones to train my skills on. Be positive instead of sayign "OMG THIS MAP IS TO HARD" or "ITS RATED WRONG ITS SUPPOSE TO BE "IMPOSSIBLY-EXTREME".. whiners..

13 May 2008, 07:55

LOL 12 tries? pl0x.

13 May 2008, 14:07

Well, kz_kzdk_templebhop_h is rated hard-extreme too, but I can't finish it and this map wasn't that big challenge for me. PS. Fire pl0x with your spams

13 May 2008, 16:39

How is that spam flibo? I was responding to his post. Your a moron. Please someone ban me from this site.

13 May 2008, 17:30

After having played this map for about 20 minutes, I failed on the first stage. I do not want to say "rate this map correctly" or someting like that. I only want to add a fact that maybe was already named so far. If you want as many people as possible to participate in this tournament, you can make it at least a little bit easier. I do not know wether you all have like 5 hours time to play counter-strike a day, but I do not. Consequentely, I can only watch the top10 owning that maps, like I always do with the world-records. A pitty.

13 May 2008, 17:39

Fire: Whats wrong with you? I thought I'd know you pretty well, but this is just disappointing... If you want to quit, just logout. Ending your "career" by begging for a ban or submitting cheatdemos or the like is just pathetic. Reminds me of ADHD. raYLa: That's exactly what I thought when I played the map for the first time. Some hours later I managed to beat it... Just read the part about a real Challenge. btw... some pretty unknown/"underground" jumpers did submit a demo already. A lot of ppl can actually beat the map if they try hard enought, you don't have to be uber skilled.

13 May 2008, 18:29

all u need for this map is uberhigh sens or worlds widest mousepad imo =DDD but I'm making progress without either of those :] (yes yes it's all about practise XD) damn I always get hooked on maps that I can't finish!

13 May 2008, 18:49

I was being sarcastic, and I wasn't spamming so I made the point.

13 May 2008, 18:55

not extreme map imo.

15 May 2008, 03:51

GG

15 May 2008, 18:49

very nice idea :) gj

17 May 2008, 21:02

Nice one :D GL all

21 May 2008, 07:03

and still no demos? ;O
