CMC43: the race of September 2010

- All tracks to be played are kept in secret until the start of the race.

- Players can subscribe (min. 50 coppers) on the CoppersMillionCup dedicated server (click here to join, login CMCSRV), with a possible limit of 220 slots. After crossing the limit, you'll have to contact the staff in exchange of an extra donation to the server.

- How to subscribe: on the window that appears when joining the server, specify the fee for your subscription (at least 50 coppers), click on "J'accepte" and confirm. All coppers received will go to the JACKPOT, so feel free to boost it by donating

- You can see the subscription list (with logins and nicknames) on this page. On the very day, all non-registered players will see a black screen with a link to join the spectator relay server (currently offline...) that is for limiting the lag on the main server. Don't worry about that "no-spec policy", the week after the edition, all the played tracks and replays should be available for download

- Be prepared for your satisfaction: during the evening, there will be many players and potentially long tracks! So you should decrease the game graphics and the number of cars shown on the screen. You also need to shut down programs which consume too much in memory or CPU speed. Also consider increasing your computer memory (RAM), especially if you have not enough memory, if your OS is memory-hungry, or if you often get BSoD's or shutdowns...

- Keep in mind that criticism on each track should be both constructive and encouraging for the mapper, as described on this topic. Keep strongly negative comments (about tracks, mappers or the admins) to yourself, or post them on the forum with a motiving attitude.

Have fun on the server while waiting for the official race
RDV on the 24h/24 server every day for fun.


If you want, you can put that monthly-updated automatic userbar in your signature (CET/CEST clock-time) :

The userbar which links to this forum has the following BBCode:

Code:

If you want to include a clock which shows the time in France, append this BBCode next to the userbar:

It's about time to introduce the new *automatic* userbar (with a 2-line display) which is updated every month...
Actually, the automatic date change was implemented in late July (by Koko/TortuX), but we only just started working on internationalizing our userbar in other languages (mainly English and German).

I know that not much has changed yet (notice the "09PM" without "CET"), but it'll hopefully be improved soon. The goal of this update is to "finalize" the userbar BBCode with a working link. For those who still have Evolm's (or Ritchi's) obsoleted userbars, it's definitely time to switch

The results of yesterday's CMC are published
All replays are available right here (or here for the older ones).



Also, here are a few pictures to show you how the new CMC manialink is going to be like:

We do our best to publish it as soon as possible (by the middle of September at worst)
"The CMC, where you better look before you trip on traps."

BTW, could someone suggest examples of similar "slogans" in German for the "Home" page? (yes, there are going to be 3 languages for now)
