Group 6, the one where I am didn't race any, as our host left and we had huge problems with getting in the game. However, after 6 of 9 guys that were firstly here managed to get in the game, another bug appeared.
We'll try to contact organisers and to see what will happen. I am definitely disappointed in organisation, but well, it's not mine job to judge about it...
We were all in then the game crashed, the host restarted without us within 5 mins then we all complained and they threathned to ban us. Then on the 2nd stage I got 2nd and 7th. I feel sorry for the host because of the abuse he's getting.
We also got problems but we managed to make the 2 stages. I was really bad on the sprint stage, trying to get wheels and failed but i was good in hilly making 2nd and best on teams, what doesn't give me anything since my 2nd best was 11th and only 10 first count
Postremo the WC is organized by a site from one country but the official language is english anyway. You are posting here on Daily where you had on front page for a long time a warning about it like you had on lots of pcm national sites.
Who can you blame for not seeing it? I'll tell you...yourself.
About the servers that is a very bad thing that Cyanide can't work out since the game was released almost a year ago.
So spam your freaking angry somewhere else and pay attention next year if you want to participate on it.
yeah cause people who bought the game and gathering for an event are the problem......not cyanide server that can't handle 130 users
130 users common even if you are a small company 130 users aren't that much
F_R shoulded split the groups
first groups playing yersterday and the rest today after 200m tt
200m tt in less then 5 min it's over
i told him but he didn't care
even when were 100 users they were loading a little more fast but in-game/in-race lots of them had bugs
splitting the quarters road in 2 different days would been just 60 users online and wouldn't had so many problems
isn't his fault that server is lame but he coulded solve this problem even this was in last minute

But Seriously. No one freaking told me about this World Cup. When I was going to play with my Armada team, this STUPID World Cup crashed the Loading games and the Servers. Thanks a lot those who made the World Cup
sorry armadanoob if we've disturbs your armada ranking.

Dude... Me an Armada noob? Atleast I am one of the best PCM Armada are of the top 25. So stop complaining about Denberre. And yes maybe it's my fault I didn't see it. But what do you win of the World Cup if it's not for a ranking. It's likely Fantasy. You don't win anything. And that sucks. It feels like you did something that you work hard for and you didn't receive anything.
Actually, winners of the World Cup receive a free copy of PCM 2014
And I think runners up get some Cyans for Armada use.

You should calm down, firstly. Secondly, there are prizes for the winners. Winner of every discipline, as well as overall winner gets PCM14 for free. Runner up of every discipline, as well as overall 2nd gets 110 Cyans to use in Armada, while 3rd position (once again in each discipline and overall) gets 50 Cyans.
It's no one elses fault but yours that you didn't know about it, as there are threads about it on every single PCM Forum. So stop blaming everyone around you.
You also don't need to bitch around with your Armada ranking position without a reason. I am pretty sure no one cares about it, here.
Aaaand, Zabel'd. That happens when you want to write a long message. Edited by admirschleck on 08-05-2014 16:58
This is just insane! Fuck, fuck, fuck this. Didn't make it through with 10.184 in TT, while the guys who had like 10.18x won in other groups and a guy who had 10.211 made it, also. This is just ridiculous. And I wasn't even in a group of favourites...
Whatever, hopefully I'll make it in the 2nd chance. What about you, guys?

You'll make second chance easily. Just keep practicing and you will get in the 160-170 range.
The timer starts at 200M to go. There are many tricks and videos about it around internet and YouTube, so feel free to check them.

I hope so! I am not a type of person that is always finding an excuse when he fails, but it was my first day of seriously playing that 200M TT discipline. Funnily enough, I played it only few times before, but never with a tips and tricks I watched on your stream and YouTube. At the end, I am happy with that 184, tbh.
I am out of Elimination race by a clear block although it is stated in the rules that blocks are absolutely forbidden. However, the guy has some kind of reputation and suddenly, out of nowhere, blocks are allowed in racing (although, I once again repeat, it's clearly said that they're forbidden and not allowed in the rules). To make thing worse, the same situation happened yesterday and the race was replayed.
I just got enough of this, I am tired to continue the discussion on their site as these guys firstly don't understand, neither talk (I actually never thought I'd say this and it's not an argument, but I just had to note this as they don't understand me at all) English properly and are awful organisers. Only few days of this WC and I think they had more than 30 mistakes/problems.
What about your races/experiences?

Give F_R and Kwam some time to analyze everything. I understand that you are mad, this is the community at work, not the organizers. I'm technically the closest we get to a spokesperson with F_R and Kwam. They are working on the case.
EDIT: The Portuguese and Belgians think they own the place. We just have to accept that I guess.

Blocks are not absolutely forbidden, only if it is malicious.

Big thanks to jdog for making this AMAZING userbar!
I am fine with it, Code. It wasn't written in rules and that's why it caused all the mess.
Anyways, I finished as 8th out of 15 guys that appeared in 200m TT and that was all from me in this WC. Not satisfied, as I could've done better in Keirin and Elimination, but my school-time and real-life stuff just didn't let me play Quarters/2nd Chances for Semis.
Good luck to all of you who are in Semi-Finals and even some Finals. Hopefully, you'll make it.
