Skinternals - HOT
This is a young contest, presenting new external level pack (38 levels) by one of the best level designers ever. The contest is currently fresh in the scene and many kuskis take their time to hoyl it. The contest is currently being leaded by MP who took 33 amazing records, dropping dz that seemed to rule before with 20 records.
The contest has very good levels, and it really worths trying. Just as we notice the only problem in this contest, which is level 37. This flaming definetly have no place in the contest and nowhere over the scene and it must be stopped. This wasn't the right place for it and hopefully skint0r will remove the level to stop that and make the contest as perfect as it can be >>

ALP- Well these are kinda old levels, but they are still one of the best packs you will find. The pack contains 36 great levels made by MP. If your an unskilled kuski like me you will still get great play out of them but if you are a skilled kuski you will like them even better. They have different styles in each of the levels. I highly recommend ALP.

VJ Levels - Well I have to admit these are my favorite levels. They are the type of levels which are cruisey and fun to play, These levels are made by Ville J one of the best level makers around. If you seem to like the Olliz type levels you are sure to like these ones. The Pack has 60 levels so there is plenty of variety to choose from.

dz cup

5th round over, winner this time is psy with amazing time. I heard some say about the winning rec something like "not that special" but I can assure you it would've placed quite high even in wcup standings ok. Crazy höyled ride with no mistakes. MP (me) was second and me (MP) has now ez lead in overall standings. Kimitys did suprisingly good and was third ;)

The last round is starting quite soon. Play it dammit! I am quite disoppointed of the the quality of this cup...no not the arranging or the levels but the few amount of participants / or many "first finish" class times.

Special mention to doddddy and thunder, nice work there

MAXIMUM INTERNALIUM
http://www.home.no/elastomania/

So kopaka the true elma entertainer started to host and update max internals (by milagros)
Second table got just out, ramone leads with big distance to second who is markku. ramone has also driven a total time which feels sick in my opinion ...real höyling needed. I don't know really how good those times are but at least Long Haul is great (as many of you have seen the rec). I predict ram will be leading for some time but you never know.
Whole kopakas site has got some changes. I don't remember how the old looked like but I guess it's gone to better direction. At least I had a lot of fun time browsing it :P. Mirror internals record table is worth to check, EM doing nice

--OSB...ups ...OBS----
I can't keep in track with every contest there is. If anything big happens somewhere inform me. Like if you have made tons of nice recs in xxx's levelpack and wanna brag just contact me in irc, send private message or whatever.
----end of OPS------

Flat Tracker's Across.Lgr Levels Site
http://home.planet.nl/~groo5305/across/main.html

The name says quite much, this site is dedicated to across.lgr. There is about 20 levels at the moment, tt compo too.
The look is awfully similar to ramone's fake site, any ideas. Overally quite simple site and not much useless stuff which is nice.

Revolt's KAJ Levels
Good playbility, though not many possibilities for styles, not worlds best visuality but nice levels anyway.

insane guy's levels
Insane nice levels. No one can make polygons like him. Levels are a bit hard, but that doesn't hurt the great playbility. And alot of levels to play too, 57 by now. In my opinion of the the absolut best level packs out there.

JLP(Juish Level Pack) - Made By Juish

These levels are quite playable, They look like some time has been put in for this pack. This Pack Contains 20 levels and one bonus level. Markku seems to be ruling the list and total time, So this gives you a good perfect reason to break some records for yourself. I also like the Ghetto names for some levels :P. Good Work :]

Elma Elimination Tournament

Post by 8-ball »

Zworqy's been running a nice contest called Elma Elimination Tournament. The idea is similiar to Elastomania Match Play Contest by Jonas, except, there you are not playing one against one, but this is like knockout, every round the last ones drop out til there are 3 left in the final. Round one will soon have results in #eetcomp, I hope and we'll see, who are the lucky dudes who qualified to the next round.

Smash Cup

This is a wcup like contest, Should be some nice levels to come with it because there are different level designers, (some are quite good ;]). I recommed you play cause the more players the better this cup can be. The contest is organized by Kopaka so it will not be poorly organized.

TLR Level Pack(Beer Pack) - By Chazz

Chazz has made 10 excellent short levels; the picture placing is done well (no over crowding). Textures are smooth, very easy on the eyes. Playability is great, with difference in all the levels. If you are in to levels which look great and are the more 'hoyla' level, I suggest you download the pack and give some constructive feedback in the thread (this will make the chance of a other pack like this :) )
