Pro-Challenge reminder!

By faker mapper·


Hey guys,

just wanted to remind you that the Pro-Challenge is still up and running. You got 10 more days to submit your demos and go for the prizes.

There are 5 submitted demos yet, that's pretty disappointing tbh. I know a LOT of more ppl out there can beat the map.

Remember: You get points if you submit a demo at all, the time doesn't matter.

However, there are some changes made to the system because some ppl seemed to be concerned about it:

- Submitted demos will be kept totally secret so nobody can see your time (not even the XJ demo admins).
- Therefore I will be the only demoadmin responsible for the challenge demos!

Here are some infos about it again:

Map to beat: prochallenge_bhop

Submit your demo: Submitdemos.php or contact faker at IRC

Prizes to win: Pro-Challenge page

Good luck :)

Map is too hard..

2 Jun 2008, 17:56

demos, go, record, now!! 5 is disapointing for sure! :/

2 Jun 2008, 17:58

OKAY.

2 Jun 2008, 18:11

Come on guys, please submit. This could be so succesful. - Faker anyways I think the map is quite hard for most people...

It would be a lot more popular if the map wasn't so hard IMO

2 Jun 2008, 18:21

Ye, the map will be easier anyway so I hope more ppl will participate. Anyway, if you check the top15 list you see that at least 15 ppl can beat the map easily: http://xtreme-jumps.eu/top15.php?page=top15&map=prochallenge_bhop So it's disappointing anyway.

2 Jun 2008, 18:25

Yeah, thats sad that some of them didn't submit.

2 Jun 2008, 18:42

Go go guys I really wanna see a demo better than the top15 times :)

2 Jun 2008, 18:54

The link to connect IRC is wrong - the channel that you typed is #Xtreme-Jumos :) I thing its wrong. Good luck!

2 Jun 2008, 19:00

the site name is xtreme-jumps, so whats the irc channel name probably? -.- #xtreme-jumps gl to those who participate

2 Jun 2008, 19:12

I would submit a demo if I could beat it ;<

2 Jun 2008, 19:13

I try this map every day. But can't beat level one.

2 Jun 2008, 19:15

thanks assumlud, I'll fix the typo.

2 Jun 2008, 19:18

hf gl all who participate

2 Jun 2008, 19:39

gl&hf :)

2 Jun 2008, 19:42

2 Jun 2008, 19:48

2 Jun 2008, 20:09

gl..

2 Jun 2008, 20:44

2 Jun 2008, 23:32

Would be interesting to get some statements why the good bhoppers like ndR, zhady, hel, etc don't bother to take part :/ Maybe a job for the weekly crew ^^

2 Jun 2008, 23:39

gl :P

3 Jun 2008, 00:18

I can't record demos :(

3 Jun 2008, 00:28

i can beat hard bhop maps, but this is too hard, i cant finish templebhop_h let alone the prochallenge :/ but 5 is not much indeed.

3 Jun 2008, 00:46

my demo randomly disapeared lolz

3 Jun 2008, 01:59

lol oops, i deleted mine on accident. no joke :D hopefully someone else has mine

3 Jun 2008, 02:12

djiiz, thats gotta hurt

3 Jun 2008, 02:59

@Faker A lot of people, such as ndR for example and my self and I know a few others don't submit demos anymore because the self satisfactation is good enough. Thats how I feel anyway, for others the case may be that they are unable to obtain a flawless demo and to them if it isn't done they don't feel a need or reason to submit...

3 Jun 2008, 11:30

Maybe this whole idea just need some time, this is only the first level of XJ's prochallenge. If we are lucky people (esp. pro's) have heard your call and starts submitting in the next round - Where the map is a fastrun btw.

3 Jun 2008, 11:53

Actually it isn't a surprise that only 5 people have submitted their demos yet. There are only very few people who can beat this map easily, but for the other who do not, it is not much fun to play this map. At least it is not fun for me. It is too hard for me otherwise I would have tried a good time. In Addition, I do not have 3 or 4 hours time to play Counter-Strike a day. I hope round #2 will be nicer!

3 Jun 2008, 13:14

Ye got the point, but once again the old argument comes in place: At least 15 ppl could beat the map and enjoyed to beat it at out gameserver: http://xtreme-jumps.eu/top15.php?page=top15&map=prochallenge_bhop Why don't they bother to submit a demo? This is what I can't understand and what's kinda destroying the challenge atm (imo) ^^

3 Jun 2008, 13:29

gl :D:D

3 Jun 2008, 14:39

A few of those in that top15 are not that active anymore, so i guess thats one of the reasons they havnt submitted demos. I think alot of people are afraid to submit demos that are alittle longer beacuse they think people will call them noobs or whatever.

3 Jun 2008, 15:07

Perhaps ill try a run on it but I`ve not even played the map once till now because everyone said its too hard.

3 Jun 2008, 16:49

Omilo yeah but the submitting is anonymous.

3 Jun 2008, 17:07

Ye its anonymous when you submit but then they get released.

4 Jun 2008, 05:59

anyone that can beat the map has skills. isnt that the point of it being a prochallenge? if you can beat it, you are not a noob :P

4 Jun 2008, 09:54

[quote]There are 5 submitted demos yet, that's pretty disappointing tbh. I know a LOT of more ppl out there can beat the map.[/quote] maybe they aren't... map way too hard for me.. maybe next one :D

4 Jun 2008, 13:15

i sent a demo :E

4 Jun 2008, 13:52

I think the most of the people on xj could beat it in like 20-30 minutes, but whats the point? u get last place and u dont feel satisfied with the time and the map is boring to geek

4 Jun 2008, 19:49

Even a top15 time on the map is awesome. It cant be embarassing to submit a 60 min demo on a map which is soo hard to complete. Im still very happy with my 66 min run on mineblock, 900 gochecks used.

4 Jun 2008, 20:06

Just to keep this nice idea going I'll submit a demo soon, even though I havent played for a while, no matter what the time is :P (2 weeks off in the army, starting tomorrow :D(SO SWEET!))

6 Jun 2008, 00:21

[quote=fr0xzy] I think the most of the people on xj could beat it in like 20-30 minutes... [/quote] So you think, that >50% of all here register users can beat this map? :D I think max number of poeple who can beat this map is ~200. And only ~10% of them are active in xj web. And only max 20 people can beat it in good time. In other words: idea is good, but you totaly f*cked it up with the first map, so it will be much harder to continue this project with more than tiny activity. =(

gotta agree with NumB
