I can now confirm that the 99 OPEN will be:

held over 9 months and will co-incide with the CoE leagues running from FEB to OCT

There will be 2 races every SATURDAY, at 09.00, and 21.00 (server time)

Players entering both races, will have their average points score taken.

Weekly prize money will be:

1st - 100k
2nd - 60k
3rd - 40k
4th - 30k
5th - 20k
6th - 10k
7th - 5k

End of season prizes have yet to be worked out yet- but will be VERY worthwhile!

Much gratitude to everyone who has donated and helped out so far!

Race details will follow in the next few days- watch this space.

I Hope as many players as possible will enter, and there should be some awesome races!

Cheers,
Brunwulf.

Hmmm

Since this appears to be the same format as the GoE II open league (but on a track) and is running around the same time as that league, you can compare that league to get an idea of the numbers you may get to participate. You may actually get the same crew from the GoE II to join your league due to the similarities in format and times of play.


Good luck with the league

Thanks Lord Foul,

That was sort of my idea to combine some of the elements of the 3 CoE leagues, but on tracks.

It seems that lots of players lose interest in the CoE leagues through the season. Whatever the reasons for this (ganger limits, or just not wanting to take good vehicles down to Morgan, FL etc)

That's also why I decided to keep all races in SS.

Also, I thought that having no EAA rules races on tracks would add a bit of 'nowhere to hide' entertainment!

The whole series is gonna cost me about 2 mill to finance the prize funds- but it will be money well spent if it throws up some fun and carnage!

If not- then nevermind, I will think of something else for next season.

Cheers,
Brunwulf.

Excellent!

Sir Latte- that is exactly the kind of comment that I envisage the 99 OPEN to become about! grudges, alliances, carnage, destruction, blood, nowhere to hide, and buckets of lost toes!

See you out there!

Cheers,
Brunwulf.

I'm Getting a lot of positive feedback and comments now- hope to see all of you entering.
To answer a couple of questions:

There is no 'league' to sign up to- just enter any events you want to. I will post the events every sunday, and SAM has said he will promote them in the lobby.

I have no ability to design, produce, or issue a BADGE- but I am secretly hoping that if the 99 OPEN goes well, I might be able to talk SAM or BASTILLE into making and awarding a badge.

I will post the entire series of events, tracks in the next couple of days.

Cheers,
Brunwulf.

I can now confirm a few of the end of series prizes:

1st = 250k AND a one-off custom paintjob of your own design, on a chassis of your choice- generously donated by X MAN of 'Xtreme skins & chop shop'

2nd = 150k AND 5LV8 Osprey, generously donated by JeeTeeOh, and painted in his awesome 'Bandit' skin. (i will supply the engine JeeTeeOh)

3rd = One of my own custom painted, 'renowned' BPUs, complete with 3.2LV8, and twin Car Cannons

4th = 5LV8 Flail

That's as far as I've got so far, but hopefully I will get a few more donations as the series progresses- enabling me to offer more prizes!

Many, Many, Many thanks to the following players for their generous donations:

X MAN

JeeTeeOh

Doc Death

Groove Champion

Snidely Carmichael

I have nearly finished sorting out the 9 events and will post them in this thread in the next couple of days.

Cheers,
Brunwulf.

If someone can steer me in the right direction on the file format specs and file folders to use... I will volunteer to make badge worthy of such an event!!

I have very generously been given a 3.2LV8, CC armed Buzzer to offer as a prize in the 99 OPEN!

However, the only problem is that it's in Badlands, and I need to get it back to SS.
Now, If it was a vehicle that I had bought, I would put my best scouter (142) in it, give it a go - and see what happens.

However, as it has been donated as a prize, I want to make ABSOLUTELY sure that it ends up as such!

Can anyone help out get this Buzzer back to SS for me- no rush, Got all season to do it?

Cheers,
Brunwulf

Hey Brun, here is the Badge I created for your league. I hope I was able to capture what your league represents in this badge.  ;) Let me know if this works for you or if there is anything that you want changed/added.

WOW- that is truly awesome work X MAN!

I don't wanna sound un-grateful, but if it's not too much trouble, is there any chance you could remove the SOMERSET, and just have 99 OPEN in the yellow letters at the top?
Just because I'm hoping to run races in GW and maybe ELMS in future seasons.

Other than that, I think it's by far the best badge in the game!

(shame i'm never going to win it for myself!)

Thanks again X MAN!

Not a problem to change it for you. I only included Somerset because this is a town specific event. That means I could make you a different 99 Open Badge for each town where you hold the event (Just a thought). But I will make some revisions and re-post them for you.

Ok Brun, here are the revised badges. I did take it upon myself to make one other change. Since you are the league creator, I feel that you should be recognized for your efforts and hard work towards making this league become a reality. Maybe we could also get some additional player input on which badge would be the most appropriate.  ;)

http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/59816_2539034971194_1497700515_n.jpg

I will make the final badge when you let me know your choice.

The badge on the lower left looks to be the best in my opinion, but the one on the lower right would probably look even better if the words were done in a moderate red instead of yellow. Or a color that is not so bright that it takes away from the rest of the picture.

For example, take the outlined words from the bottom left badge and fill them with a moderate red while keeping the outline of the letters.

Nice work

I like Lord Foul's idea of red letters- 'blood red' maybe?

I definately don't want my name on the badge though- looks a bit ego chasing. I appreciate the thought X MAN, I just don't want to give the idea that i'm doing this to 'get my name up in lights'

Cheers for your efforts,

Brunwulf.

No problem at all, I will make a font color revision (red) and remove your name. I will have these done and re-posted tonight for final approval.
