Mastercup 3 poll

Post by zebra »

The question is, would you play Mastercup 3 if it was started now (in few weeks) without EOL functionality? With the old e-mail system and old web page (like Mastercup 2)? Or should we wait for EOL to come ready? The problem is that we have been waiting now for long enough and it seems that EOL cup feature could be soon ready but at the moment nothing seems to be happening. I'm not blaming mila/Kopaka, they have done awesome work, but the cup system would still need some refining before it could be used in a big cup. But nobody really knows when it will be ready, and I just noticed that now there shouldn't be any other cups starting, so it could be a good time to start the cup. It would last around 3 months (12 events, 1 week/event).

One possibility is of course Kopaka's cup thing (Automated Cup Website) which has been used in other cups too. I'm not familiar with it so i'm not 100% sure would i get it to work. Maybe I could get it working with some help. Is that Kopaka's system significantly easier than the old e-mail system?

If the cup was started now without EOL, it could cause some problems if people would play the levels in EOL and see times there. What we learned of the test cup is that there is no way to hide times if you drive online.

The situation is that all the levels are ready (been for half a year). Cup site hasn't been done but it's quite quick to make based on the old site.

EOL is already fucking with cups in that you can see times etc. People are just to stupid to handle it.

Still, a normal mail cup is way better than a bugged online cup which is way better than no cup at all.

The more automated it is, the more players you will get.

Seems that the Kopaka's Cup source thing gets most votes, so we will probably use it. Kopaka has a new version of the cup source coming next week, so will wait for it. I think I can promise that mastercup 3 will start shortly after that. Maybe in the end of March or at the beginning of April.

There will be no pipe events.
You can still skip 2 events (like it was in mastercup 2). We will give short descriptions of each level before the start of the cup so that you can decide which ones to skip.
