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 :)

First! Cool!

02/06/2008 17:56:00

Map is too hard..

02/06/2008 17:56:00

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

02/06/2008 17:58:00

OKAY.

02/06/2008 18:11:00

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

02/06/2008 18:11:00

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

02/06/2008 18:21:00

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.

02/06/2008 18:25:00

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

02/06/2008 18:42:00

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

02/06/2008 18:54:00

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

02/06/2008 19:00:00

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

02/06/2008 19:12:00

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

02/06/2008 19:13:00

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

02/06/2008 19:15:00

thanks assumlud, I'll fix the typo.

02/06/2008 19:18:00

hf gl all who participate

02/06/2008 19:39:00

gl&hf :)

02/06/2008 19:42:00

02/06/2008 19:43:00

i was one of the 5 yey :D

02/06/2008 19:48:00

i cant beat the map

02/06/2008 20:09:00

gl..

02/06/2008 20:44:00

go go play'az

02/06/2008 23:32:00

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 ^^

02/06/2008 23:39:00

zocker will win

02/06/2008 23:43:00

gl :P

03/06/2008 00:18:00

I can't record demos :(

03/06/2008 00:28:00

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.

03/06/2008 00:46:00

my demo randomly disapeared lolz

03/06/2008 01:59:00

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

03/06/2008 02:12:00

djiiz, thats gotta hurt

03/06/2008 02:59:00

@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...

03/06/2008 11:30:00

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.

03/06/2008 11:53:00

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!

03/06/2008 13:14:00

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) ^^

03/06/2008 13:29:00

gl :D:D

03/06/2008 14:39:00

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.

03/06/2008 15:07:00

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

03/06/2008 16:49:00

Omilo yeah but the submitting is anonymous.

03/06/2008 17:07:00

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

04/06/2008 05:59:00

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

04/06/2008 09:54:00

[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

04/06/2008 13:15:00

i sent a demo :E

04/06/2008 13:52:00

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

04/06/2008 19:49:00

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.

04/06/2008 20:06:00

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!))

06/06/2008 00:21:00

[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. =(

06/06/2008 22:28:00

gotta agree with NumB
