Midnight Club GTP-Meetup 1&2 - Photos

[Turbo Lag]

Well then again it's hard to have all the time zones happy. I honestly don't know when we could possibly have this where everyone could join in. Unless we have 2 meets, one for morning (US?) and one for night (Asia Pacific).

 

[Robin]

I know a good place we could meet! That scenic parking lot off the windy road overlooking the hills. Where we ended up nearing the end of the last meet... I can't for the life of me remember where it is but it had like parking spaces in a square layout. Dragonistic and Turbo Lag parked in them and probably know where im talking about.

Yeah, that's the lookout.

 

[Paulie]

Ooh, do you think there is enough room for all of us in the lookout up on the hills? Would be a nice place to meet, more scenic and relaxed.

I guess that makes 2 of us. I know exactly where it is.

Close by there's a circle area of houses (along with a drop onto the road leading to the lookout) which may allow some extra capacity should a car spillage occur. However if everyones careful I think there's enough room for everyone.

 

[Pepsi0]

I might be interested, just need to work out what GMT time it is.

 

[Robin]

I might be interested, just need to work out what GMT time it is.

Whats being proposed is 8-9am GMT. Either on a Saturday or Sunday.

 

[Pepsi0]

That'd work quite well, I think I'd be able to make it if it stays that time.

 

[JonesyGT246]

I can do 1:00 AM MDT, which is 7 hours behind GMT, but 2:00 AM is kinda pushing it. Also, I know where the lookout is, so the meeting place is not a problem.

 

[Turbo Lag]

Alrite, first we need to see what time zones everyone is from. We can't choose one until we know that everyone who is planning to come, can err...come.

 

[P1]

Im in (GMT)

 

[Pepsi0]

I'd be in if the time doesn't change.

 

[Turbo Lag]

Well, looks like the time is good for most then. We just need to decide on a date.

 

[Legendary]

I think it has to stay this time or too many people get thrown off.

EDIT:Next saturday also seems to be alright unless you want friday for Giles sake. Either way I'm cool.

Well I don't really want people who missed out last time to miss out again. Then again, we only have about 14~ places ingame. Last time, we couldn't take that many and it ended up that everyone got D/C'ed. I don't know how we're going to have this many people in at the same time.

We need ceiling fan at a time like this....the man with a super connection. I must admit, ^^your connection speed has to be the best you can get in Australia. But then again America kicks our ass in the realm...dragon was ok last time. Sureley we can fit more on his, we didnt lag last time with him hosting.

We got D/C'ed off MY connection last time.

 

[Legendary]

Thats what I'm saying, your connection is excellent so obviously no Australia/New Zealand host will work so we need drag to host again.

 

[Dragonistic]

I wouldn't say I was the ideal candidate to host but it did hold up well last time my connection isn't uber fast but it is consistent being in a low traffic area helps. I can only do the saturday morning GMT 9 or after as I'll need some time before to get a few things ready for later on when I go out. However if thats not ideal, someone else can host and I'll just jump in later on at some point.

Maybe we can make some Race Editor tracks for racing, however I haven't worked out how to send challenges for race editor made courses but if Turbo knows how, it can be arranged.

I know how, I tried with Paulie once. Maybe I'll set a race up later.

same.

 

[Dragonistic]

same.

Which reminds me, Robin send your PSN invite to me again, I froze upon trying to accept it and lost the invite (and am currently not on the PS3) so if you're on, send an invite my way.

Whilst we're on the subject of invites, R* unfortunately only supports 50 friends (this is true of GTAIV) whereas PSN supports 100. This means you can't always invite people on your PSN list as they won't show up on LA, so make sure someone can invite you which will create a chain of invites so everyone can get in (if someone can invite you, and they can be invite by someone else etc. etc.)

 

[Legendary]

Never knew that. That is really stupid.

 

[Paulie]

I know how, I tried with Paulie once. Maybe I'll set a race up later.

Err, uh hum, yeah.........tried. Straight at the start I rolled or got lost, then I passed straight past a checkpoint and nothing happened so I just drove off.

 

[Pepsi0]

The time and date is great, just make sure it doesn't change please.

 

[Dragonistic]

I am now officially free for any day this weekend to host and participate, whatever I'm needed for.

 

[Stavingo]

Hmm most likely I can probably get in with this meetup.

Note: Who's PSN should I add to join the meetup?

 

[Turbo Lag]

Dragonistic and I.

 

[Dragonistic]

Dragonistic and I.

Although I most likely won't be able to invite to the game, my list is well over 50 so stupid R* can't support my entire friends list and unhelpfully won't give online friends priority. In advance, this is why I won't be inviting people directly even if I'm host, I'll invite whoever I can but don't spam me with mail for invites (this is aimed at anyone) cus I can do without having to reply to all of them at once when there's nothing I can do.

 

[Stavingo]

Now I need to brush up with my wheel.
