As a big fan of the burnout games and all racing game arcade or simulation. just wondering if there are still any hate going on upon people? I would like to host a tournament in about 4 weeks maybe more and if any of you would like to help that would be great. now this will not be for just anyone there will be a 6 player qualification race between them the top 3 will be given a spot in the tournament. there will be a ranking system to see who moves on and who doesn't. the tournament will be 1 on 1 each player picks there best 2 tracks and the 5th track will be choosen at random and will be 6 laps each. The races will also be timed at each players convenience. The only rules durring the tournament is no glitching driftjumping is aloud sence its not a glitch but a skill and play fare its burnout so taking each other out is encouraged. The ranking system will be maybe of the top 100 players to pass the qualification round. so pleaze pm me if you want to join by friday or saterday i will give you all a week to pm and ill set everything up for monday for the qualification round after that i will post the ranking system to see who races who. when you see your spot on the rank contact me. The winner will get a prize its comen out of my own pocket so i expect everyone to play fare!!!
Anyone else like i said i will need some help and if some people can record there races that would be great id like to make a video and post it on here for everyone to see. After each race in the tournament the winner if they would be kind enough to discribe the race to me in a pm would be most appreciated.

not for the faint hearted...
hey sonic, like the idea.. however, 5 rounds of 6 laps?? seems a little over kill for a tournament.. i could understand 5 rounds 3 laps, or 3 rounds 6 laps.. however am I alone in thinking that you'ed have to spend a lot of time in a room with only one other player.. i could also understand a six round full room tourny with each person pickig a track of their preference.. this way you would get the banter and talking that is part and parcel of burnin.. it would also make the racing a lot more fun if there are more targets.. err. opposition than just racing one on one.. just think of it this way.. would it be fun racing six lappers with no competition due to the other person not having the skill or ability to keep up.. or even worse the other way round.. getting one of the top guys and getting absolutely thrashed for 5 rounds (I don't particularly like the word TIMEOUT).. just think you should come up with a few formats for the tourny.. or even get Xan to have it as a question on the poll at get all the aholics to vote which format should be adopted..
feel free to disagree, ignore, abuse and insult me.. happy to take it.. but from experience you want a format that people want to come back to again and again and having more competition in the room is certainly something that I find more enjoyable than a half full room..
also don't think my attention span is up to half an hour racing in one sitting.. when would I get to take my time out to smoke my joint.. ;)

Tournament
I think you should do 3 or 4 laps early in the qualifying stages, but as more and more people get eliminated, push it up to 6 laps. That way no one will get bored.

Sonic STX Tournament
Yo Sonic STX! did you get banned from xbox forums???
I can't believe I am through to the final of the tournament without lifting my controller and racing anybody. But I am, so I am still in with a chance of winning!
The final will be on Saturday at 10pm in the UK. Good Luck Burners!!!

I got banned too...not sure why. I think it was because I had one other gamer tag I posted with in the forums...I only posted with it once though.

The mod is a ***!
That mod keeps looking at everyone's tag and if he finds my IP he will ban that tag 4 life.

Difficult loss...
Nightmare got IP banned which really sucks, I don't think he can post at all from his current network now. Xbox.com does have mods and he was calling them out lol, might be one of the reasons that he got banned...
