Yes, it is advisable that everyone reads that, because using an extremely small font (in Gothic typeface so quite hard to read anyway) I stipulate that all entrants must send me £2,000 (cash, in fifties) so I can buy a Ferrari 328. Mmm, no wonder there's been so little interest in it...! ;-) Oooo, mercy. Seriously folks there are some excellent prizes up for grabs thanks to so many generous offers from fellow members, but with so few competitors it's not yet got off the ground :( Are people not interested or are there a load of you practicing to submit demon times right on the deadline? If the former then please give me ideas how I can make it more fun for everyone; and if the latter then please submit your current best times now, as it's a running Championship where you can resubmit better times as often as you want -- I want the competitors to constantly check back to the tables to see what map they might be able to improve upon to gain more Championship points, if you see what I mean. Championship Points are awarded for being in the top 6 for each map, F1-style (10-6-4-3-2-1). > Come on you sissys! I'll take ya' all on etc etc. Go on people, don't let "BoneCrusher" take an easy victory! Jim PS If you have any questions, suggestions or problems with the DemoRecording etc don't hesitate to call: Mr Plough, that name again is Mr Plough.. er, I mean me. Damn it, got Simpsons on the brain me. Sorry DEnnis (and other CW/Mac users) but I can't really help you with the Demosaving as I don't use CodeWarrior (but I'm sure you should be able to take the siocons data and get it to work somehow :-/ ) Would someone like to post a message here saying how to do it in CW? PPS Oh yes don't forget that you have to QUIT Grav (ie back to the comms screen) in order to be able to use the DOS SAVEPAL batch file to dsave your recordings from memory. Also remember that if you know you will better your times later then there's no need to submit a demorecording in these early stages of the Championship. -- ----------------------------------------- James Shaughnessy james@manc.u-net.com http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/~shaughnj -----------------------------------------
