Japanese board
« Thread started on: Jun 13th, 2003, 12:32am »

I think DVM (?) gave the address some months ago but... once again
http://bbs3.sekkaku.net/bbs/fzero.html

where sugi (former webmaster of the "japanese fzerocentral") said on wednesday that, like at the time of the GBA, he wants to make a ranking site for GX.
(in fact it may be "I want someone to do it". I'll ask confirmation...).
Most messages are about the impatience playing GX.
as for me it is "could you help us with P1, could we meet?",

and do you guys know this ?

I like the "side speed" data (when you press L or R, making you go faster when you "strafe")

I 've asked some precise questions about their strat on P1 (same site as the BBS) since the answer was "always drift".
since they don't say "drift turn"
I don't know if drift=(what I call) "strafing" or "drift turn"
I asked if from the first left corner to the dash plate it is one big turn, where to start the big drift turn in the dirt zones, and what was (what they call) inverter (?)for the last lap...
hope they will understand me...
if you have some questions for them...

my best lap is 21"62 in training btw

not that much Nick... after 2 years on the same game.

a picture from Masao (webmaster) about what to do in the dirt zones:
http://www6.ocn.ne.jp/~fzero115/BiancaCity1_2.jpg

translation from up to bottom:
-boost in this area
-start drifting here
-try to graze this barrier a little
-here one blast only.

I can't really start the drift turn so soon and Leo is keeping me so busy on some other tracks that I don't really have time for this...
anyway i still can't figure out how I can gain 0.5sec per lap.

Tonio, I'm guessing that strat is for JV?

My big question for you is "on your first lap, do you ride in between the railing and the slowdown patch (big triangular patch, first one you come to) or do you go arround it, or what?"
I'm pretty bad at this track and can use some help.

That's an easy one. Yes, you must cut between the rail and the first (and biggest) dirt patch on Lap 1 for best results.

Fantastic! Can you get him to recruit the other top Japanese players from each of the versions, or at least GBA? He is probably able to contact some of them. His voice would be much more powerful than ours in helping make F-Zero Central TRULY a global competition.

Dave you got it, your first top japanese player at fzerocentral!

Another japanese player (NRG-MAN on the board) will join soon, don't know his times however.

And MASAO invited the other players to join fzcentral on his board!


you're welcome!

A few things . . . I know you're just joking about "now we're screwed", but I want to take this opportunity to point out how exciting and POSITIVE it is that we may be receiving more top Japanese players on GBA (and hopefully other versions as well someday soon!). F-Zero Central is meant to be a worldwide competition, and this is our chance for that dream to become a TRUE reality. I'm thrilled about the idea, although personally, Masao's enrollment will push me from King D back to Master A ... which should tell you how big a deal this is for the site if I can keep a positive attitude in the face of personal disappointment.

Also, the issue of real names has become a tricky one. Long ago, I offered to let the Japanese players use their nicknames if they joined us. It was a compromise I was willing to make because those players already were familiar with each other using those names at sugi's site, and I wanted to bring them here for the reason stated above (true global participation). They didn't come here at that time, because they were happy with sugi's site, so why join another one ... one that doesn't even speak Japanese? That site is now gone, but Masao is one of the players that the offer was originally made to. I will still encourage the Japanese players to use their real names, but at this time I am not withdrawing their option of nicknames. I know that this creates an unfair double standard, but that is the "sticky" situation I have put myself in, and I am not willing to refuse membership to the elite Japanese F-Zero GBA players over this.

Lastly, this is for Antoine:
Can you please ask sugi if he can send me his world record data? Or give it to you to forward to me, either way would be great. I'm not asking for his full list of times of all players, just a full list of his site's SRs for all three versions. I want to compile a full list of WRs from all reasonable sources. Thanks!

Dave

Now that is going to be very, VERY cool. Meh, a possible drop back to Expert, but given time, I should be able to make Master D again. (That is, once I stop finding other games to play.... lol)

Fair enough, Dave. Besides, it gives both sides(FZC and the Japanese players) a chance to get to know each other a bit first, a method that I highly approve of. Maybe once the Japanese players get to know us a bit more, they may (or may not, for that matter) decide to use thier real names.

I guess it's just a matter of time and waiting.
