Squid Racing!!!

[Qwerty Kun]

Is anyone trying to make this more official? The past races have been amazing and could draw a huge crowd

[Shinkurex]

There are a select few of us still pushing this along... Problem is we have a difficult time getting the 4 Capt. needed to help us explore and create new maps... Speaking of which... Jace, I would like to get back into the labyrinth, to test out some different track Ideas that I have.... I would love to get more people in on this, Maybe get you to stream it one of these days qwerty

[N-Sunderland]

Can't Jace just get one other captain and put his alternates in the other slots?

[Machiavelliest]

I'll do my best to contribute.  Testing pilots' skill, rather than the gunners or engineers, is something I quite enjoy.

[JaceBoojah]

Getting into a 2v2 map to explore should never be a problem.  Just let me know and I'll set that up.

As for making squid racing more official and organizing events I'm stumped.  What is a good day and time?  Can someone put a poll question on here or make a new thread with a poll question?

Could be set up something like this:
check your availability.
Mon
Tue
Thu
Fri
Sat
Sun
After noon US/evening EU/morning AUS
Evening US/morning EU/afternoon AUS
Morning US/afternoon EU/evening AUS

I use the term morning VERY broadly

[N-Sunderland]

Added a poll.

If you build it they will come
Seriously this event is super fun so if you make a post with a confirmed time and date people will turn up to play
Also I would love to stream this event as it would make for a great change of pace.

If I can help in any way just let me know

1:13:10 for squid race.
notes:
qwerty missed the ghost tower at 1:16:26
(during the practice lap qwerty lost control of the ship and missed the last 2 obstacle descriptions)
at 1:17:29 flew over the railroad bridge
at 1:17:39 did not circle the cage

In the video they came up with a great idea, Pilot licenses.

So get your Pilots license for the CANYON TRACK 1 and FJORDS TRACK 1 by PMing me and we will meet in game for your certification.

If you would like be be a referee with me (i will ref most of the time and could use help) PM me

If you have an idea for a track PM me so we can make the map and video for it.

If you want to set up an official squid race PM me.
