![]() It's the time for the first Slicks'n'Slide championship tournament of Abandonia!
Slicks'n'Slide is a classic shareware title by Timo Kauppinen. The amazing playability, the easy, simple to learn controls, and the fun gameplay made it the best of its kind back in the mid-'90s, and it's still one of the most entertaining racing games ever. And best of all, the registered version comes with a track editor, which guarantees an endless supply of new tracks (as all tracks work with the unregistered one, too). That's also the reason why it is ideal for having a competition. The champion will get to choose his/her prize from several options, all listed at the competition website at http://slicks05.hopto.org (or http://koti.mbnet.fi/herd/slicks05). Here's how it goes (it's all very simple): 1.) Download Slicks'n'Slide (version 1.30D) for example from here and read through the competition rules. There you will find all the things explained in this post, and a bunch of helpful hints. 2.) Go to the download page and download the current track file to your Slicks directory. 3.) Run Slicks and try to drive through the track as fast as possible. You can try as many times as you wish. 4.) When you're satisfied with your time, e-mail the same track file to me (timo@diplomats.com) - and please remember to include your forum name. 5.) Download the next track when it comes available. - There will be 6 tracks altogether. I make them by myself, so they are completely new for everyone. - A new track will be available at the competition website every Tuesday at 11pm EET (9pm GMT). You must send your results by that deadline, or they won't be accepted. - If after sending the file, but before the deadline, you get a better lap, you are allowed to send it and it will be applicable to the competition. - The player with the fastest lap gets 10 points, the 2nd gets 6pts, the 3rd gets 4pts, the 4th gets 3pts, the 5th gets 2pts and the 6th gets one point. - Missing a track doesn't matter. You can play as few as you want, or you can play them all. The competition deadlines: Track 1 - available now, return by Tuesday the 24th of May. Track 2 - available on the 24th of May, return by Tuesday the 31st of May. Track 3 - available on the 31st of May, return by Tuesday the 7th of June. Track 4 - available on the 7th of June, return by Tuesday the 14th of June. Track 5 - available on the 14th of June, return by Tuesday the 21st of June. Track 6 - available on the 21st of June, return by Tuesday the 28th of June. (The deadline is at 9pm GMT on each day above). All of the above (and more) is explained also at the competition website. Should you have any questions, ask them in this thread. Have fun, and may the best one win! (I reserve myself the right to take part, as there's one prize I also would like to win..)
