Apr 1

• CTG
  testing leading time graph
• CTG
  Not working... :-S
• Duplode
  No, it looks working - most likely it'll rescale in a few minutes...
• CTG
  Rescaled but shows no points.
• CTG
  I mean data points
• Duplode
  Well, it is a line graph with no points... the display looks very clear to me.
• Zak McKracken
  you need javascript enabled for the graph. it works perfectly for me
• CTG
  Strange, javascript is enabled here, maybe the browser... (IE7)
• satanziege
  Just to be on the board - and with the only car that has style.
• Pitman
  Das Kompetenzcenter has reclaimed the 3rd Place of the Team ranking! :-D
• Overdrijf
  Congratulations, for now...
• Overdrijf
  Just to let you know, you might stay on 3rd place for the next week, I just gave AbuRaf70 something to do in FTT.
• Duplode
  Speaking of FTT: show up there folks! It may make Krys happier for reappearing...
• Duplode
  And too bad IE users can't see the leading times graph right now, it is looking cool - like an hyperbole branch dropping down to minus infinity...
• CTG
  Too bad there was a grey car ahead for an hour...
• CTG
  Friker is licking the ass of my Acura...
• CTG
  just installed firefox to see the graph... COOL!!!
• Friker
  im in your asshole !!
• Overdrijf
  Not a cork, still getting screwed.
• Friker
  skip it 3 seconds worth it
• Bonzai Joe
  Don't worry about CTG, Acura is a crap car for this track.
• Friker
  i cannot drive (especially new ones) so it doesnt matter and - acura fits me
• CTG
  Acura is not crap. But still having rest, without Stunts, so...

Apr 2

• Dottore
  Wanted to taste THE GAME again...
• Friker
  eh..
• Friker
  Dottore.. a newbie?.. tottaly cut off from the league.. welcome back? hello im Friker.. .. sleepy thoughts.. good night.. nightmare.. :-!
• CTG
  WOW!!! Welcome back, Doc! See you in USC too!
• CTG
  Friker: he's not a newbie - he's a three times USC champion!
• Bonzai Joe
  Time is moving backwards!
• CTG
  BJ: bring Alain back somehow, you two were soooo good friends (and even better "friendship" between Argammon and Alain)! That would be fun!
• CTG
  Btw damn, Friker's nose was in my ass and now Zak's Skyline is almost totally in the rectum...
• CTG
  Graph modification
• SuperBrian
  A vtestlap, and ouch I'm drunk..
• CTG
  Great!
• SuperBrian
  And congratulations to BJ, I wasn't able to send my replay cause of internettroubles, but my time wouldn't have been much better.
• SuperBrian
  Thanks, always nice with some alcohol to drive on?
• CTG
  There's the point!
• Duplode
  Very, very good to see Doc is still around!
• Overdrijf
  Superbrian drives on bioethanol, is that cheating?
• CTG
  No, Diesel Joe and I do the same!
• Overdrijf
  Good. *Plop*
• Overdrijf
  With Satanziege al the way at the end there it looks just like we're having an incredibly exiting mass sprint here.

Apr 3

• Friker
  it could be so nice... pink floyd ftw
• Friker
  dottores time is really strong with LM-002 for me btw - dottore: why you dont have champions title from zakstunts?
• CTG
  satanziege should improve...
• CTG
  And Friker is behind my car again...
• Overdrijf
  I should improve... And I will.
• Overdrijf
  HTE should also improve, and all the others we are still missing too.
• satanziege
  Hm, thought about leaving the gap until the end ;-) But submitting is easier than comparing times by hand.
• CTG
  Thanks for saving my ass!
• CTG
  The fact is that we'll have a Skyline vs Acura race this time. Jeep is good at the current level but it has quite strict limits. Maybe Corvette with Ayrton or BJ...
• Overdrijf
  But as long as many of us are still ten seconds away from that limit, it might be faster for some to stick with the jeep.
• Bonzai Joe
  Friker: did you spend 1 hour and 10 minutes improving your ending from 1.11.30 to 1.11.05?
• CTG
  BJ: nope, I was sleeping... erm... bad login, sorry!

Apr 4

• Friker
  thanks CTG i think name of our team will be 'ghost racers' definitely (after this night) ... BJ it seems redicilous but.. yes i did.. - because i couldnt push my time down and i had to redrive the passage around 1:24 and i was tired :)especially that final loop took me very long time to do..
• CTG
  
• Duplode
  Friker: If you're going for "Ghost Racers", why not mutate it to "Ghost Riders"?
• Friker
  hmm maybe 'ghosty' is more acurate

Apr 5

• Friker
  someone wants to teach me how to ride skyline?
• Overdrijf
  *Mounts Casper*
• Overdrijf
  *Dumps Casper, mounts flying buck.*
• Bonzai Joe
  Well Friker, good news for your opponents :-)
• Friker
  that doesnt mean im not able to learn it whats up with your replay?
• Bonzai Joe
  Maybe think about it this way: maxing out the ending of a non-final replay is a bit like putting fuel in a car with no engine. I will start racing later...
• Friker
  who said it was ending and who said it wasnt the final replay? if i cannot ride skyline i cannot send any better replay but generaly - i agree
• Bonzai Joe
  The Skyline is new to everyone... It's just about trying it out and learning it. I'm looking forward to that myself... Still never raced with it :-)
• CTG
  Skyline? :-S I'm not happy about that...
• Friker
  oh fuck! this will be hard-learning
• CTG
  Don't cry, Friker! You can do at least 1:07.66 with Skyline. That's sure!
• Friker
  ill see it about 1:42 driven time.. we will see

Apr 6

• Duplode
  ...but Skyline was never supposed to be a difficult car in first place, so c'mon guys
• Duplode
  Oops, invalid submission, sorry! Zak, could you please cancel the 1:05 lap?
• CTG
  Too bad, I would prefer a Acura race. But mission is a mission, whatever the car is.
• Duplode
  From the Statistics>Sent Replays page: CTG C94 6:11.31 auto 2009-03-31 21:27 o_O...
• CTG
  Yes, it was a lolish replay.
• CTG
  Next race: I'll start with a 9:59.95 Indy replay ---> 13 minutes.
• CTG
  Lucky you, I have no time to beat you now. I have to play with F1 2003 mod.
• CTG
  Weak one...
• CTG
  Damn it, too slow! :-S

Apr 7

• HTE
  overdrifj or friker have slots for the new team? or it's to late, my conection is crash in 5 days ago and now I fix
• Friker
  i suppose you are spammed by Overdrijf then no new activity - tou should get in contact with us (some IM protocol) - thats all - maybe choose some team name
• HTE
  IM ok, add me!
• CTG
  i hate centiseconds war
• Duplode
  The power to stop it is in your hands
• Duplode
  BTW,
• CTG
  I know.
• Duplode
  On the other hand I need to vent my frustration at hardly getting any sleep due to several failed attempts to compile a QM/MD calculation suite... =X
• HTE
  very very baddd, don't like this car, nsx! oh shame (first time in the ztc94)
• CTG
  QM/MD sucks, far from my field.

Apr 8

• Duplode
  Yes, and don't even get me started about thermal analysis and mass spectrometry! (j/k naturally )
• CTG
  I wonder where it stops. I don't have such a huge braking part at the end left...
• SuperBrian
  Testlap with the Skyline. I can't remember I drove the other one, but I can see I was drunk..
• CTG
  böff
• CTG
  This one was my best lap. Of course.
• Duplode
  Damn! I won't be able to stop you from getting this hour...
• CTG
  Then try it in the next hour.
• CTG
  Damn...
• CTG
  I have to re-drive it... :-S
• CTG
  You will do it in the next hour. I won't. Enough for today.
• CTG
  I suggest you should take the lead when I'm sleeping...
• CTG
  Btw I still say Acura has a chance. I see the way to 1:02 with it.
• Friker
  could you explain the way to us?
• CTG
  Of course I can. Fly!

Apr 9

• Duplode
  High!fly, touch the sky -
• CTG
  Back to hiding mode?
• Duplode
  (Whatcha gonna do now the well's dry?)
• CTG
  Nothing. Waiting for somebody kicking my ass.
• SuperBrian
  Hmm, not bad first lap with the LM I think..
• SuperBrian
  But still far away..
• CTG
  Damn, forgot about the team! I'll send my replays in the evening.
• Duplode
  Good!time, feeling fine - whatcha gonna do now there's no wine?
• Friker
  i dont have time to do it under 1:12 with skyline :-/... i love my girlfriend soo much... maybe tommorow
• CTG
  Impressive.

Apr 12

• Friker
  hm...
• Friker
  yahoooo!

Apr 13

• Overdrijf
  Go Friker! I'll try to get some serious racing done this week.
• Ice
  Darn i race to fair, following the road and stuff
• Overdrijf
  Look HTE, a target. If you try to beat eachother a few times both your times will improve.
• Ice
  Testing the other car..
• Ice
  another little test
• Ice
  closing in!
• Ice
  moahaha
• Friker
  you can earn the most at the start of this track try to do first passage (from start to jump to water) under 34:00
• Friker
  im sorry - 33:50
• Ice
  this is frustratingly fun
• Ice
  blargh
• Friker
  BJ: now you can see im not only one who can spend 1 hour to push his time about 0.40 down
• Duplode
  Worry not guys, it sometimes happens that I find myself spending well more than half an hour to improve... 0.00
• Bonzai Joe
  I see, Friker :-) For every new time Ice posts, we know his final time will be a bit slower. Unless he/you enjoy maxing out your endings on inferior beginnings so much that it will make you race more on the track later... Then it's just an investment in the next replay :-)
• Friker
  someone might enjoy racing trough whole race not only at the end still - i dont have a team so i have to do some replay that i can beat later..
• Duplode
  You guys (Friker, OD...) are entangled in too much bureaucracy to get the team going, it almost looks like you're dealing with Brazilian public services in order to submit your application...

Apr 14

• Overdrijf
  I beat my time with skyline!
• Overdrijf
  And now I'll get back to maxing out section by section...
• Zak McKracken
  easter replay
• Friker
  it seems like someone wants to annoy me..

Apr 15

• Ice
  hmm is this time even better..
• Overdrijf
  I like the looks of the newbie board and all, but from a patriotic point of view I'dd rather see the two LM's in front of the two skylines...
• Duplode
  Patriotic? Don't you like Japanese cars?
• Zak McKracken
  I guess he was referring to the flag colors of Holland
• Friker
  for me its two skylines before two lms it would fit to me & our team best i think
• Friker
  ok ZAK, WHERE ARE YOU? our team: me, Overdrijf, HTE, Ice (if he wants to) name: "Crashper's Domination" (since we are all ghost) logo: will be done later pls update my joining date to community - 1st of January 2009 & your age counter in profile pages
• JoSi
  Hope I did it not too bad...
• Overdrijf
  O hé, we have a name. I like names...
• Overdrijf
  By the way Zak, it's the flag of the Netherlands, not Holland. I'm a dangerous fundamentalist on that terrain.
• Overdrijf
  And even more by the way: Look HTE, another target!
• JoSi
  Hello Everybody! How do you enter the penaltys? "6,00" "6.00" or simple "6" ? (without quotation) Maybe i made a mistake posting my last time?!
• Overdrijf
  I entered them as just numbers so far, ("6", so to say), but perhaps the rest works too...

Apr 16

• JoSi
  Guess i did something i was not supposed ...
• JoSi
  I just tried to post my second time with the LM002 when i hit 'Enter' to confirm my 6 seconds of penalty (same shortcut as with the Audi) before i selected a replay. I am sorry for the trouble this will cause.
• Duplode
  JoSi: No problem, Zak will cancel your non-lap when he gets to see it (just confirm your 1:22.92 was sent with the correct penalty). And welcome
• Overdrijf
  Crashper is barely out of his box and the scoreboard is already haunted...
• CTG
  Crashper team did not exist during Z91-Z93, so we shouldn't add the points of the members from these 3 races to the team competition...
• Overdrijf
  These are the rules CTG, or are you affraid of us?
• Overdrijf
  Note: I didn't mean that personally, I just really like the idea of people being affraid of us.
• CTG
  Quite a stupid rule.
• Overdrijf
  I just send my (bad) time for the unskilled track, so will you agree with the rule in return? [/should have asked that before sending]
• CTG
  Well, I can't disagree with it - I accepted these rules when registered to ZakStunts. Just forgot to read the team section, so this one surprised me... Link doesn't work for me, please send it via e-mail! Thanks in advance!
• Overdrijf
  The ending is a bit crappy on this one, but I just wanted to see for myself that I'm back in the race.
• Friker
  this looks very dangerous to me :/
• Bonzai Joe
  2005-09-04 CTG It seems that people like to make love in November/December. Happy birthday, Super Pursuit Mode! Who you are? And who is H-bomb? Roy and Ben? XDude and Doelloos? Nice to see you back whoever you are!
• CTG
  LOL!

Apr 18

• CTG
  Somebody online?
• JoSi
  Im on...
• Friker
  wtf? active all day long!
• CTG
  BÖFF then!
• Duplode
  BÖFF too! This was a suspiciously quiet day here.
• CTG
  Too bad I couldn't drink tonight...
• Friker
  what is the reason?
• CTG
  Medicines, as usual.

Apr 19

• CTG
  7 and a half hour left from Szerencs race, come on guys!

Apr 20

• Chulk
  This Warmup lap seems more of a Cool down lap...
• CTG
  Better than nothing...
• CTG
  Graphical scoreboard: the three racers at 1:09 are forming a wall - seems like nobody can really crash it.

Apr 21

• Overdrijf
  I'll hit it, just give me some time, like untill the deadline or something.
• Overdrijf
  Not that that will really matter, these 3 can probably have a very interesting sprint of there own quite a bit ahead of where they are now.
• CTG
  Btw I think we can celebrate a new ZakStunts winner at the end of the month.
• firefoxie
  nice weather, what are you folks doing here??
• CTG
  I'm at work, waiting for the apparatus to cool down and change the sample.
• Chulk
  A bit better, but still a lot to go.
• Chulk
  Mmmm. No.
• Chulk
  Best so far but not as much potential as Nissan...
• Duplode
  As for me, I'm currently proving that the particle-in-a-box solutions are orthonormal...
• Bonzai Joe
  Hi firefoxie! Nice weather indeed. The summer sunsets are the only prize the weather pays you for living as far north as I do. Light blue, yellow, orange, red, purple, pink, dark blue, black. Our evenings have it all. I just came inside and already want to go outside again :-) See you on the scoreboards, and outside!
• Bonzai Joe
  The winner car for this track will NOT be the Corvette

Apr 22

• Duplode
  I just realized Stunts is a perfect simulation of racing in submicroscopic scale according to Quantum Physics. See, every time you hit a wall there is a finite probability of tunneling past it...
• CTG
  Getting through a virginal membrane is a lot more fun than hitting a concrete wall.

Apr 23

• Chulk
  But it's much harder to achieve and you can't use RH...
• Overdrijf
  Yes, faster again! Something wrong hunny?
• CTG
  Who needs RH for that? Maybe Töff with the small blue pills...
• CTG
  Very close to the limits of Lamborghini LM-002...
• CTG
  Btw I suggest LM-002 for all the less experienced drivers, because it's extremely easy to handle in "high speed" corners(muhahahaha, 110 is nice with that). 1:10-1:12 with this car is EASY!
• Overdrijf
  But what's a quick time on one race worth anyway. I might just have bedome the definitive record holder for high jump.

Apr 24

• firefoxie
  well 1:10 in the lambo isn't easy at all. You still need to drive pretty close to the limit and make no mistakes.
• CTG
  Hmmmm... I think the limit is ~1:07.50-1:08.00 with LM002.
• Overdrijf
  @Firefoxie: most of us use RH, gone mistakes.
• Chulk
  CTG "Who needs RH for that? Maybe Töff with the small blue pills... " I meant even if it was perfect, there's no way you can rewind it and do it again... Nissan serious shot coming soon...
• Friker
  seems like i never achieve good final position
• CTG
  Friker: I don't believe your crying, you'll beat me this time.
• Friker
  i think ill beat zak but i dont believe i can beat you - im not so good racer and i hate skyline
• CTG
  Well... I'm a bad racer too and I also hate Skyline. Oh and I forgot: I'm not playing.
• Friker
  oops - im sorry for screwing scoreboard - bug found - dont log out from "posted replay" page.

Apr 25

• Overdrijf
  So the first four places are for duplode, BJ, CTG and Doc, then there's Friker and Zak and behind that come all the rest, including but not limited to Aburaf70, Chulk, Pittman and hopefully me.
• Overdrijf
  O, and I see I'm skipping SuperBrian...
• Friker
  i know its nice to be 3rd but can you delete that 0:00.12 entry? LTB is not correct now..

Apr 26

• Duplode
  I don't care, LTB+2 is already mine (insert very evil laughter sounds)
• Overdrijf
  So, not that easy...
• Friker
  okey i will not beat zak also..
• Duplode
  Oh. My. God. FTT0205 must have had the tightest finish EVER. Aaaaargh... anyway, congratulations Chulk!
• Friker
  im happy i didnt join FTT in January i cannot do FTT0205 under 1:30

Apr 27

• CTG
  Is it abnormal to post at 4:13 AM?
• Friker
  hmm.. i dont think so
• CTG
  Good to know.
• Duplode
  @CTG: what a question - obviously not!
• CTG
  What if I change it to "Is it abnormal to send 1:04.73 at 4:13 AM?"...
• CTG
  
• Friker
  no it is not.. and you have not sent it yet

Apr 28

• CTG
  And I won't. Probably the time on the scoreboard is my final one.
• Bonzai Joe
  Cork's Crew's emergecy level has just been raised to code orange.
• CTG
  And I don't really care about this track because I hate it.
• CTG
  Red code?
• Friker
  L O L

Apr 29

• CTG
  BÖFF!!! Because I said so!
• CTG
  3:52... The Never Sleeping must have been a ghost of mine.
• CTG
  4 Friker Crashper`s Domination 1:09.56 (-0.00) HAHAHA, hidden replay sent by him!!!
• Friker
  are you afraid of me? ]:->
• Cyberman
  Say what? There's something wrong, I think.
• Cyberman
  Yes, that looks better. Sorry, apparently I uploaded the wrong file...
• CTG
  Why should I be afraid of you? This is just a game. If I lose a match - nothing happens. So who cares?
• Friker
  ive just realized i am not able to beat zak :-/ too bad 1 day before deadline..
• Friker
  ok im giving it up..
• Overdrijf
  Almost free of this cheesy track...
• Bonzai Joe
  Nice try Cyberman, but I have 0:00.11 in the pocket!

Apr 30

• So Cottage Cheese, or ZCT94 is over. We have seen a lot. We have seen heavy battle for the LTB between Duplode and CTG. We have seen lots of Skylines driven through the track. And then as a big suprise we have seen the Acura at the top of the podium, along with a new racer who entered the hall of fame, the ZakStunts race winner's club: Duplode! Congratulations, well earned victory!
  Second came Bonzai Joe, securing Cork's Crew the maximal team points. The master of the Skyline was CTG this month, which was sadly only enough for the third place.
  Taking a peek on the seasonal board we can see a strong competition on the top three steps - is it a coincidence, that the contestants of this race are the podiumers of ZCT94? :) One of them will win this season, thats for sure. But who?
  And lets also mention we have seen some oldies coming back reappearing on the scoreboard with hot times. Welcome back, Dottore, Navras, and Chulk!
  Well, lets move forward to ZCT95. The first guest designer of the year is CTG. Please blame him for the track if you dont like it, not me. It looks promising but hard. I have not driven it yet, but judging from the bonuses and the track overview, my bet is on the Ranger this time. So, a new track and perhaps a new car. That's ZakStunts in May, 2009. Enjoy, and see you on the scoreboard!
• Overdrijf
  I is the fastest!
• Overdrijf
  Unless you believe the graphical scoreboard...
• CTG
  Damn it guys, be careful with the sending form... :-S
• Overdrijf
  The sending form: I brokes it.
• CTG
  Since I know Duplode sent a better hidden replay, it's useless to hide my final time.
• Chulk
  How did you do 1:36? Did you avoid penalty time?
• Chulk
  Yes, you did.
• CTG
  I have two almost equal solutions for the final sector, one of them contains penalty.
• Overdrijf
  I have two almost equal solutions too, but without penalty, and a lot slower then yours.
• Overdrijf
  I'm just curious by how much Pitman will beat me this time.
• Chulk
  A bit more according to what I know I can do, but there's still a lot to reach my best level... Maybe in a few months. I'll start racing seriously at Zakstunts again. Motivation came back, thank you new guys!
• Duplode
  @Chulk: great to hear it! Guess we all should thank the new guys
• Overdrijf
  Yeah for the new guys!
• Navras
  Hello-hello! Cool track with 3 different cars to pick, unluckily had no time to study Skyline. Just a "quick" & secret Acura lap for the scoreboard. Also completing a task for Doc: he's away for a few weeks and since there's no hidden replay sending mode during the non-quiet days, he asked me to send his time the last day. Little information about these times: Friker and Zak will have a tight match with us. So good news: Silver Spirit is back!
• Overdrijf
  So that's 11th place for me then. But with a strong field...
• Overdrijf
  *Hopes for not being lower than 12th, whole points for the win.*
• Duplode
  Welcome back guys - 6 teams, that's wonderful!
• Overdrijf
  O wait, I counted Cyberman, perhaps I'll be tenth then. (No offense meant.)
• Friker
  zakstunts is getting another life? im happy to see all veteran racers here (but maybe it would be better to see them finishing behind me )
• CTG
  Fuck you Duplode, now really! Working on the loopcut, I see about 20% chance to make it.
• Zak McKracken
  update on schedule!
• Zak McKracken
  scoreboard final, unchecked. update in progress...
• Friker
  congrats duplode!
• Zak McKracken
  scoreboard final, checked. uploading track and replays...
• Duplode
  Yes, yes, YES! Wooohooo! Wow!!
• Duplode
  * "Thank you guys, the conditions today on the track were so difficult, but the whole team did an amazing job! *
• Zak McKracken
  congratulations! Go Cork!
• CTG
  A good Akoss Poo is missing for me as an active teammate to catch Corks. That's already a fact.
• Overdrijf
  I was planning on breaking the scoreboard, but I thought it would be with an easy to beat time...
• Overdrijf
  Thanks
• CTG
  Make a slower replay!
• CTG
  Wow, the Ranger is good!
• Duplode
  NoRH test lap.
• CTG
  RH test lap.
• Bonzai Joe
  Congratulations to the 17th (or 16th) Zakstunts race winner, Duplode! Well deserved victory with a strong replay :-)
• Zak McKracken
  it took exactly two years to greet a new winner. So this is something no one should underestimate.
