we all know the drill, discussion buot the game goes in this thread :)

the game starts on the 5th of april with willy22 to set first. he then has until sunday , we are then free to match till the following friday etc etc.

good luck everyone :)

haha, i have a definate chance of setting :)

im last :(

ALRIGHT!!! LET'S GET READY TO RUMMMBBBLLLEEEEEE!!! :p

Looking forward to sitting here near the end of the pack with my buddy T-Dawg, trying to keep up with you guys haha! This should be fun :)

Man, I'm gonna be out before I set, ahahaha.

Why does it start on friday?

^To give plenty of time for me to stretch my groin muscles :p (or in fact, just about every other muscles that are in my body that ache with the thought of what i'm going to go thru here again, lol)

Yeah this game is gonna be pretty intense, good oppurtunity to learn loads of new stuff though!

damn man this is the second game in a row ive had to set first... jeez... well... at least im not out before i set

Yeah.. lucky. Can he post a set early to get the game running quicker?

its just easier to start friday because the dates are easier to keep track of and it gives everyone a chance o set when their turn comes up, its ony a few days :P

Bah. Okay, haha, no problem I'll just sit tight until then.

so is there a hand sign or something? (if you already posted it i cant find it...)

I don't see a hand symbol, maybe there isn't one?

no, i don't see a need for hand signs, we all know who we all are by now and we should be able to trust each other not to cheat or give someone an unfair advantage

Okay, cool. I'm too used to hand symbols though haha

you can use one if you like...nothing stopping you from gurning at the camera after matching

just a reminder that people setting should check the trick list in the tricks thread to see what is on the banned list so you don't end up wasting your time setting something which has already been ruled out :)

Give em haste Willy!
This games going to be quite interesting trick wise. Since that trick list is up, people are gonna have to start being more creative and think outside the box :)

Haha, I won't be beaten as easily. Well, okay I probably will.

well, its game on, Willy22 you have until sunday evening to set.

Willy set soon! haha. Darran you might want to change your sig to say starting friday 6th, since todays friday..and it's the 6th.

well excuse me for a slight miscalculation......:P

We are under way, come on willy :)

well excuse me for a slight miscalculation......:P
Heh.. sorry, I'm (obviously) very picky with small things.. I think it's a minor case of OCD. Sign of the next Andrew Reynolds? :)

Don't tell me willy has forgotten, i can't wait any lonnnngggeeeerrr!

:D

relax, he's got until sunday, and there is a difference between having OC and just wanting to be write ;)

He has not posted on the forum in the last 24 hours, but hey, the less setters, the less letters :D

so? sometimes people don't get online right away, or get online but don't feel like posting, its compeltely natural to not want to live every waking moment posting on a forum :P

But you have to show some sign of activity, there is no point filling up these spots with people are not going to play, i am sure there would have been other more avtive competitors anxious to fill his spot.

But just because i do not see him post much does not mean he will not post in this game, so sorry.

And Darran, 2 posts away from a rainbow bar, you are :D

he has already posted in this thread and assured me he is going to take part, if he doesn't, its his loss and he will be out quickly since he is setting first.

have a little faith in humanity...

Suppose, lets get this game rolling!

1 more post till a brightly coloured bar Darran.

i think i should save it for something worthwhile

(ooops)

^ Haha, good job Darran. Congrats on the rainbow bar though. I just got mine. I can't wait until Willy sets, but then again I guess it would do us all good to wait, to build suspence. :)

hold on... sorry about taking so long... ill try to have my post up by the end of today... so just wait a little....

sorry about the horrible quality... but my sets

and don't you have to do all tricks in one line?

all one go...i've not seen the set yet, but i'm sure its fine... :)

My tail grab is pretty weak, I just tapped it with my fingers. Do I need to film another one?

http://media.putfile.com/sbcgos2dbsgos , I won't post in the tricks thread unless I know it counts. If not I'll film a better one tomorrow.

terrence needs to re-match and do them in a line...
and qtip... you have to do them in a line... and at least wrap your fingerss around the tail...

terrence needs to re-match and do them in a line...
and qtip... you have to do them in a line... and at least wrap your fingerss around the tail...
What do you mean in a line. Without turning back to go in the other direction? I don't have the space for that man.

i think terences should count he just stepped off to turn the board around :S

ok.... whatever... nevermind then

it is preffered to be done in a rolling line, in in the case of Qtip and others without space concessions can be made., so lon as you remain in view of the camera at all times

with the exception of this from the last game?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuM3Yx51CQM

Is it a new rule?

In my case I went off the camera, but there was a song playing from my speakers in the garage, they don't skip or anything, so couldn't that be proof that I did it all at once?

well personally i think some people are too picky, if its clear its all one take, its all one take, its the quality of the tricks that matters

alright i filmedmy match ill post it up soon

i assume were still using the rules from the first dbs gos.... if so sev7n i think you need to rematch because of your pop shovit tailgrab according to number 5

"5. tic tacs are permited, but only when they are clearly not to maintain rolling (e.i: no under-rotated 360 flips where the person doing the trick stops dead then tic tacs away)"

Oh okay.

My match is up :)!

Nice set, not the simpliest of tricks linked together for 1 run by me :p

god damnit! i rolled my ankle while filming my match for this line...

but luckily i still got one recorded first, i was trying to get a cleaner one when i rolled it, so the sketchyness of mine will just have to do! ill have it up soon

I've got my match but the tailgrab on the pop shove it hardly visible. i'll get a good match thats more visible tomorrow.

And just because I'm bored.

J'ai obtenu mon allumette mais le tailgrab sur le bruit sec le poussent à peine visible. j'obtiendrai une bonne allumette qui plus visible demain. (That says ^ the same thing as that in French)

J'ai obtenu mon allumette mais le tailgrab sur le bruit sec le poussent à peine visible. j'obtiendrai une bonne allumette qui plus visible demain. (That says ^ the same thing as that in French)

Now that was a funny sentence :icon_drib Here's what an 'allumette' is in French : http://ctgr.free.fr/Red-vs-Red-People/pict/allumettes-2.jpg as you can imagine the translation doesn't really work here, and I don't know if you used an online translator (which are usually not very reliable) or something but anyway it translated the 'pop shove-it' name while trick names stay unchanged regardless the contextual language. 'Bruit sec le poussent' ? :icon_doh:

(funny things happen when you try to translate 'tailgrab lipslide shove-it in shove-it out' into French words, but you have to know what these words actually mean in order to get it)

Free french lessons!

Me next :)

Je m'apelle andrew, jadore skaterscafe parce que le atmosphere. Le gens sont gentil mais sev7n est bete!

You're dirty, MRCK.

I've decided to learn more French. I took three years of it in High School, but I still know about as much as a French two year old.

Praise thee online translators!

Okay I'll lay off the translators :)
Anyone wanna teach?

the tape with my match has gotten all ****ed up so can i post one up tonight?

you have time to get it tonight :)

DBS, sorry about accidently posting in the discussion thread, i was just gonna post it in here but i forgot what i wrote XD

Now dbs, if i'm not mistaken you have sev7n marked down for matching this set already in your sig, but he needed to rematch because he didnt roll away the last trick.

Now idk if you thought that would count for some reason or if you just made a mistake

really im not tryin to bust your balls sev7n, but you did say this i'll get a good match thats more visible tomorrow. like 4 days ago and you still hav't posted a rematch. todays the last day so you better get busy if you want to clear this round

I have no way of posting a match as of now.. I dont have a camera here. Is it okay if I get an extension until tomorrow? I could get my match then for sure

uhhhh no.

and yes it was a bit of an oversight on my part.

i have just had to run outside and do my own set as i am going away for the week, sadly that meant i skated for a grand total of 5 minutes so the set is a bit poor. however the impossible to crossfoot should at least be taxing

Very nice set, i will have to learn fakie fs flips, then hope for luck during the impossible x foot.

And i can land varial heels every so often, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Where is the link dbs?

it should be in the tricks thread youtube is processing, also could a couple of people just look after the game and make sure it runs smoothly while i am away as i will have no internet access until this time next week. :)

Ah, I won't have any problem getting the first two tricks in a line, but the last one is going to make me struggle a bit since I've never even attempted it, and I'm far from being the best at crossfooted landings. Ah well we'll see, nice set DBS :)

I see no link :(

uhhhh no.

Darran, why no? I have a match but it's on my computer at home, I tried to upload it (I don't know if anyone ever gets this message) but it just says file was already uploaded, and Putfile doesn't do anything.. Come on.. I've got my camera, I just need until the end of the day, not even that.

I can't view your set DBS...Is there something going on with Youtube or something?? Cause I got that same ''This video is a duplicate'' message error, and i'm only tring to view ....weird

I'm about to upload the match that I got.. I sort of explain in the video why I didn't make deadline but if you don't get it this is why.

On Thursday, I filmed a match [rather, re-match] , and attempted posting. That day, Youtube gave me an error stating I had to select a file to upload, which it would not allow me to do. I then tried Putfile, and Putfile's file browser would not open. So, I tried again Friday hoping it would work and it still did not. That day around 5:00 I had to go to my aunt/uncle's house in Pennsylvania, which I am at now. But, it took about an hour to get here last night and I had no camera at that point. My parents dropped it off this morning here, and I'm staying until Sunday. So I guess it'd kind of be.. in all fairness (I suppose) to accept my match but I do understand if you do not. Video is currently uploading now, if anyone cares to accept it.

So many cars, it wasn't really a line because of it, and you stopped before the fakie bigspin...

Well Sev7n you really didnt have to bother putting that up, you missed the deadline, no discussion. only until 45 mins before the deadline did you ask for an extension, but you had plenty of time to film a rematch in those four days after you said "I'll film one tomorrow." DBS wont be on for a week, so no use arguing it. he said no. you get a letter, sorry

^^

Yeah but the thing is DBS put down the little (m) next to sev7ns name in his sig, meaning he had matched..

^ yes, which is what i asked him about initially. but then he said:

and yes it was a bit of an oversight on my part.


meaning that was an accident. and he fixed his sig to reflect his decision


6. sev7n S

I have never even attempted a cross foot landing, this is going to be quite hard. Since I can't view the set, which way are you supposed to cross your feet?

I doubt he'll care, but impossible to crossfoots are usually done with the front foot behind the back one.

^ I have never met any one who crosses them the other way with impossibles, its much more of a natural motion to slide your back foot behind the front one.

Well Sev7n you really didnt have to bother putting that up, you missed the deadline, no discussion. only until 45 mins before the deadline did you ask for an extension, but you had plenty of time to film a rematch in those four days after you said "I'll film one tomorrow."

Dude did you read why I couldn't post it? On Tuesday was when you said that I believe. Even if it was Monday, it was late. Tuesday night I stay after school as a tutor with my algebra teacher, Wednesdays I have either Soccer or DeMolay, and that night was one for soccer and my soccer runs from 3:00 (after school) until 6:00, then my mom decided to go get dinner and we didn't get to eat it until about 7:00 and got home around 7:30. Then I had to shower, and by the time I was done it was 8:15. I did my homework and got on the computer at that time I think it was then I realized and stated I would match the next day. And I explained the next days already. I don't think I should even have had to rematch in the first place because a, even if DBS did change it, his signature said I had matched, and I tick-tacked after beginning to roll away so it was therefore not to cover up for not rolling away.

FFC, that is definitely the more natural way to do it, but with impossibles, it's so much easier to slip that front foot behind the back one because your knee gets in the way. I don't think I've ever seen one done front over back. To each his own I guess.

Dude Sev7n what are you talking about, you did not start to roll away at all, you stopped dead, and then tick-tacked in order to roll away. there is no way you can look at that video and honestly try to tell me you had any forward movement before the tick tack, dont try to bring that up again

And at that time you agreed to rematch and didnt complain, which is agreeing the rematch was necessary. I dont care how many excuses you find, it's after the fact.... if you needed an extension for legitamate reasons you should have asked for it earlier. The time to match ended, dbs said he made a mistake putting an [m] next to your name, and he denied your last minute request for an extension. It's done, stop complaining and making exceuses after the fact.

Whatever.. I'm not making excuses though.:(

Has anyone else run into the problem of NOT being able to see DBS's set via Youtube? I asked before, but nobody said anything....It keeps saying something stupid like ''this is a duplicate video''...Ideas?? DBS, can you upload it to zippyvideos or something else for me PLEASE :)

yeh it doesnt work for either it just says "This video is a duplicate of a previously uploaded video" :(.

I managed to access this video a few hours after he uploaded it by going to his youtube channel.

But that doesn't work now, but at least i know he did it and it counts :)

Its not about if it counts or not, I need an example of the line so I can figure out how to mimic it (foot stances, etc..)...I'm a true ''copy-cat'' when i'm trying to match tricks

I saw the video too but it no longer works for me either, however here's some random footage of the individual tricks I found on Youtube for you :

- varial heelflip (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UFTzvJVuh4&mode=related&search=)
- fakie frontside flip (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyMX6SYmu3o&mode=related&search=)
- impossible to crossfoot (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vf4iNEWKKLc)

I hope it helps :)

Haha, at the end of the impossible to cross foot, "chill"

I'm so bad at varial heels... i think i've landed less than 4 ever. the other two aren't too bad, i can do crossfoot tricks hehe, and fakie fs flips are easy. but i can't varial heel so well, this shall be interesting!

This coming from a person who can do lazerflips.

^Don't knock it...I've been alot closer to landing laserflips then varialheels...My headache will definitly come from trying to land them sons of *****es :p..Me and varial heels are worst enemys. Seriously, I think I landed maybe 2 in my entire career if i'm lucky

Hey, i'll take what I can get at this point...Thanks for the quality effort on your part MRCK :)

This coming from a person who can do lazerflips.

I know, ironic huh? and also ironic that i can switch varial heel... but i know alot of people that could no longer do varial flips after learning 360 flips, since theyre a similar foot position and motion, but so different. same thing for me and varial heels/lasers

I know, ironic huh? and also ironic that i can switch varial heel... but i know alot of people that could no longer do varial flips after learning 360 flips, since theyre a similar foot position and motion, but so different. same thing for me and varial heels/lasers
I can do about every single heelflip variation switch/nollie, yet regular I really can't do any.

yeh i suck at varial heels too,but i can do them switch

Since DBS is away i may aswell say it.

Time is up, everyone takes a letter, except DBS obviously and it is now MRCK's set.

sorry about the video problem, youtube must have donesomething very strange.

i'm back now and i'm glad everyone has managed to carry the gamein my absence :)

MrCK to set :o

My set is up, however since some people have been complaining about how lazy the switch late shove was I'll go refilm the line this afternoon just to make it more obvious that it wasn't just a switch fs shove. So go try it anyway :)

i won't be matching this as i have badly bruised my right foot trying to learn 360 flip late f/s 360 shuvs *sigh*

^ :icon_eek:

My god, Darran that's insane.

So, when is matching time up? So i can set :)

its your set now varial,

Ok, i am going to a zoo now, i will set later :)

Nice set varial, nollie anti-big was a bit sketchy but I might get this lol

I was planning on harder stuff but it was getting too near to the deadline so i set something simple.

"Simple" he says. Haha.

i'll be matching this the next time i go out on my board :)

Varial you have successfully chosen the two most annoying things in skateboarding for me, pressure flips and x-foot landings.

When are matches due? End of the 3rd?

end of 4th i'll update my sig...

DBS your sig is wrong, his last trick was a nollie backside antibigspin / lotti spin, not a 360 big spin, don't go and match the wrong trick ! :icon_susp

ooops, i did it absent mindedly, i think i was thinking about something else at the time.

also watching it again, i wouldn't count the nollie b/s lotti because of the criminal under rotation, but its too late to implement that decision really.

in future please be a little more stringent with your tricks. :)

Now it says fakie 360 bigspin???

well this line isn't too bad, the only problem is i realized i have to relearn pressure flips, theyre terribly inconsistent right now. and i hate the way doing pressure flips over and over on concrete tail-knifes the side of the board so much, so im electing to take yet another letter haha... this line isnt worth wasting the tail of my brand new board

I'll have match soon enough hopefully, only problem is the nollie antibigspin

Haha, I thought that was going to be easy since I have the two last tricks on lock and even though I can't varial flip crossfoot I can do shove-it crossfoots consistently so I figured it wouldn't be too hard to add a kickflip to it, but actually it is, I end up doing twisted flips instead. I can match this, I just need to try more actively than I thought I would have to :)

I think I pretty much got it : http://media.putfile.com/Please-do-not-upload-any-copyrighted-content does one of these two attempts count ? I think the first one should but I'm not 100% positive so I'd rather ask first, not to mention that it would be cool for me to not have to refilm it since I bruised my ankle pretty bad during my session today (but again it may be fully healed tomorrow, you never know with this kind of minor injury).

-edit-

Anyway I need to know whether I have to refilm it today or not, so please tell me as quick as possible, thanks.

** hours later **

OK I see how it is ;) Haha, I'm going to go skate now and won't be back online until tonight, since I had no reply about the validity of my match I demand an extension if it doesn't count.

That better count, it looked fine. Nice gazelle backfoot impossible, by the way :)

it looks fine to me ,i doubt i will be matching the last 2 tricks are fine but varialflip crossfoots hate me.

yeah i dont see why that wouldnt count mrck

Time's up, if I'm not mistaken the list looks something like this :

1. willy22 SKA
2. deadbluesky SK
3. MrCK S
4. varial_222 SK
5. arto_geoffSKA
6. sev7n SKAT
7. Qtip SKA
8. Atrain SKA
9. Pathtek SKA
10. terrence SKA

And now it's Arto's turn to set :)

^^ DBS said to me that he was pulling out this game, he pulled out of SNGOS2 but he told me that he forgot to post about it in this thread, not sure if he is still running the game though.

pulling out of his own game?? i wonder why haha

There has to be something going on in life for him to pull out of his own game.

i've had some very bad news and i need to take time to get myself together and as such i won't be online or posting for a while, if someone else could please look after the game i would be very thankful.

cheers

So, I believe it's arto's set!
Does his sig need to be updated for the letters?? I can do it if needed

here lawds any chance of a wee extension, it started rainin da nite but its gonna be dry tomoro

Hey Pat, FYI you have till the end of the day to get your ''set'' up bro

Sev7n's set.

^yes it is! Any chance of you setting in the early part of the week Se7en? Its going to get harder for me to match it by the end of the week (of course that determines if I actually can match it in the first place)

It's Qtip's set now isn't it ?

Is it? I though Sev7n had till the end of the week to set...am I wrong? If so, then yes it'd be Q's set now..I'll edit DBS's signature to show what it should :)

Well I think the rules clearly state that players have two days to set when it's their turn, and a week to match someone else's line ? I may be wrong, but I don't think I am.

^Oh ok, so I looked back, and it looks like your given 3 days to SET, cause where 1 game started on the 5th (which was a thursday), the Set was due by Sunday the 8th....

So with that said Se7en has till the end of the day, then we move on...Arto is due a letter for not setting, and I think everyone except you MRCK are due a letter from Varial's set correct?

I think it's correct, but I'm pretty sure that players only had two days to set in the previous game, you might as well PM DBS to make sure.

atrain, you might as well get a set ready just in case Qtip fails to set in his allowed set time.

Yeah, thats a good idea...With DBS being temporary away at the moment, its getting tough to track..i'm going to signature it for the time being


...and according to the first set of rules MRCK, it was 3 days then, BUT, during this game, it was 2 (but I can't find it anywhere in the rules it changed, lol) oh well, sounds good to me to do it by 2 days a set now. We gotta pick it up :)

atrain, you might as well get a set ready just in case Qtip fails to set in his allowed set time.

well okay haha

Woah I thought I had dropped out of this game? Maybe I'm just insane. No matter, I guess I can film a set tomorrow morning.

Woah I thought I had dropped out of this game? Maybe I'm just insane. No matter, I guess I can film a set tomorrow morning.
Dropped out?? Never!! lol....Nah man, I think with the match being a ''week'' from the set, it kinda makes for the thread to drop to the bottom of the pack

I thought Qtip's your time was up?

^haha, snuck in there on ya ;) (my bad seriously though)

Qtip has till tomorrow, and then atrain's turn starting Sunday if for some reason Q-man doesn't set...

Why is the dbsgos2 thread in completed games of skate? Anyways I won't have time to skate today, but I'll film something simple in my room for the sake of not getting a letter.
EDIT: Atrain why don't you just set, I was going to drop out anyways due to lack of a skate spot.

just film something if you can, if not then youll get a letter and you can drop at that point. i dont want to start advancing the sets early though because i wont be able to skate til monday anyway, so you might as well do something during the time you have

^^ He told me on msn that he said he would not match the next sets anyway so there is no point, and that he is dropping out :(

well okay, im still not considering my set to start yet because i cant skate today or tomorrow anyway. i will be able to skate monday though, and ill get something together then

So how'd it go atrain? Did you get a chance to ride today? (just curious)

yeah im posting now.

EDIT: well actually i cant really post, the thread is closed, can you please get the tricks thread out of completed games pathtek??

for now here it is http://media.putfile.com/dbs-game-of-skate
when the tricks thread gets fixed ill move it there

its a pretty easy set, i wasn't skating very well today so i had to set something pretty basic. switch flip, nollie flip, nollie b/s flip

Haha...wtf?? Did I accidentally move it? Yep, I did :p My bad, I was cleaning up the previous played games, so i'm moving it back

lads whos still in this? if im still in this ill go match this like but i dont know if i am or not lol

lads whos still in this? if im still in this ill go match this like but i dont know if i am or not lol

According to Pathtek's sig, you are still in this and you have SKAT so I guess you'd better submit a match if you want to stay in the game <bag:)

As far as I'm concerned my nollie backside flips are so inconsistent it would not even be fun to try... I can do the first two tricks in a row without struggling too much but the last one would kill me everytime, or would be too sketchy to count if I landed it, my nollie kickflip abilities are rather poor :icon_shru

MRCK you have to match this, you managed to do a nollie bs flip in gos8. As for me, apparently I'm still in the game, but I have bronchitis so there's no way I'm skating, so I'm out anyways.

i expect multiple matches on this set... i imagine most of you can get the first two tricks together very easily, so its probably just a matter of adding the last trick if you cant get it consistently already. i was originally going to do f/s flip, switch f/s flip, nollie b/s flip... but i wasnt skating well enough for that. so this ones much easier haha

So everyone gets a letter...and its my set now! *Sigh*, this should be interesting with the list of possible tricks dwindling :(

DBS is officially ''MIA''

Can't wait for your set pathtek :)

Should be interesting.

My set is up :) Have fun guys, I hope you all enjoy!

:icon_bunc Not to be annoying or anything, because it would have been a fun line to match Mike, but I'm afraid that it can't count, someone already did a fakie 360 flip in the first edition of the game and you can't use the same trick twice... I'm sorry but I think you have to reset, alas.

Are you serious?? Oh crap man, my bad...I didn't see it on the list, so thats why I used it...Well, then , um, i'm hoping I can then skate tomorrow and set something else...I'll probably use the nollieshoveit-fakie kickflip, then maybe do a 360 underflip if thats alright? or maybe i'll get pissed at myself, and toss in the fakie 540 flip instead, lol...sorry guys

What ever happened to DBS? I haven't seen him.

He said a few pages back he had an emergency situation, and he would be gone for quite some time...hope he's alright (or everything is), cause yes he liked dissappeared

fakie tre flip has already been used pathtek!

sorry i think you have to reset with tricks that arent in the list on the tricks thread

Yeah, MRCK pointed that out above...I didnt even see it in the list though, unless I completely missed it :(! I hoping, GOD I'M HOPING, that if I ever get out of work today, that I can go change up my set :) sorry for wasting everyones time with that

oh wow sorry haha never noticed the above posts about that

Hey Mike, wasn't your reset due last night?? Your sig says for you to set by Thursday.

Nono....My ORIGINAL set was due thursday, but because i'm a dumbass and set a previous set trick (fakie 360flip) I have to reset something different at the end of my set...*sigh*, if you guys dont want to wait till tomorrow, let me know, i'll seriously just say screw it, cause i'm a toolbag :(

Going to post up your re-set pathtek?

^No...I actually haven't gotten a moments time...I'm taking my final letter...Terrance's your set bud, you have till Sunday bro!

i think ill just be taking my final letter on this one

^Ok then...Willy22, your set man...You have till Monday 11pm

oooh i could still play, it would appear i'm not out .... weird

^yeah actually if willy doesnt set by tonight, your schedule to go on the ''Set Clock'' :)! You may (or may not) want to update your sig, or I could hold it for ya...whatever you wanna do there bro is fine by me

well i updated the tricks list in the tricks thread, but my sig is apparently too big when i try and alter it, weird

any word on the beginner one of these?

like BDBSGOS2?

Your set is up Willy! DBS, your set my man, hit em where it hurts :p lol

i'll have my set up later today :)

my set will be up shortly, don't expect anytihng too mind blowing, didn't have any skate shoes

Argh ! I gave this a shot this morning and realized that I've completely lost my switch fs 360 shoves, I end up doing switch 360 kiwi flips every time, dang. I'll still try more actively to get them back later this week.

i really wanted to get something worthwhile for my set, but i only had 1 go and no warm up so it had to do :)

i'm happy with the switch 360 pop shuv though

and here are the standings:

1. deadbluesky - SKA
2. MrCK - SKA
3. varial_222 - SKAT
4. Atrain - SKAT

MsCK its your set... you know what to do ;) though i realise i have left it a bit late to inform you so you are welcome to an extension

My set is up, it's nothing too unattainable, two obscure 1/2 pressure late 1/2 flip variations followed by the almighty nollie 360 kiwi flip :) I guess it's going to be a good challenge for everyone still in game without being frustratingly out of reach, good luck everyone.

i can do the first 2 tricks with no problem at all, but nollie kiwis frustrate me no end.

not to mention the rain...pffft :(

Pathtek your sig missed out atrains T.

Just got back from reading (the english town :)) Pretty wet around there, quite dry back here in Chester.

According to Pathtek's sig time is up, here are the standings :

1. deadbluesky - SKAT
2. MrCK - SKA

Varial_222 and Atrain are out and it's now DBS's turn to set :)

While I am at it I'd also like to inform you that I'm not going to be able to skate from Monday 9th to Saturday 14th, so I'm going to need a king-size extension for whatever I'll have to do that week (set or match), provided that the game is still going of course.

well if its ok i need an extension too due to my moving house and the absolutely abhorrent weather, so we can put off the set until we are both viable to play? since it is down to the 2 of us now

Yeah of course, take all the time you need :)

It's been a week, how are things turning out DBS ? :)

Daaaaaaar....rannnnnnnnn..... :icon_bore <bag:)

Well looks like no match from anyone...Nice set MRCK! Very nice indeed!
Moving on....

hey guys sorry i have been away all weekend filming and doing demos... so things have been pretty hectic for me, i have also lost my internet connection at my house for a few days :(

^Are you going to be able to set?? or do you need an extension man? Its your set for both games ironically!

hey guys sorry i have been away all weekend filming and doing demos... so things have been pretty hectic for me, i have also lost my internet connection at my house for a few days :(


Any videos of said demos?

yeah its going to be on tv and stuff apparently

an extension would be great because i don't know when i can next use a computer

A can swing a few days if you need it, what time period are you looking at? Post-weekend?

probably by monday, i'm trying to get out as soon as possible so i can film something

So are you guys officially on hold then?

2. MrCK - SK

Well not for too long I think, DBS seems to have access to a camera again seeing how he posted his matches for GOS10 yesterday. He's probably going to be able to post a set soon, I guess :)

true enough *thumbs up*

You have access to a camera again DBS now right ? I see you posting matches and sets for GOS10, so do you plan on setting something soon ?

Yeah, I agree, lets finish this out :) It is time.

Yes ? No ? Maybe ? :icon_doh:

Here's a suggestion for you DBS, since it doesn't seem too fair to drag your allowed set time for so long (a few days is fine, a few weeks is... less fine :icon_goog) and it looks like the game is stuck, I filmed a little line today, so we could always move on to my set now (without giving you the letter for not setting on time), that would give you something to do and make the game go on. Just a thought :)

Congrats MRCK you got the game! I could only wait so long, nothing personal to DBS, but just because other games follow the same rules, and I don't want to make it seem like extended extended time periods were ok...I know that all of us that play together are cool with each other, so its no biggie for a unaverage length extension happens, BUT, I think we've postponed this enough!

Congrats to MRCK, our DBSGOS2 Winner!

DeadBlueSky's Game of SKATE 2 Challenge;
*Game has ended*
1. MrCK - SK

Hmm, I appreciate your patience Pathtek :) But I have to admit, this would be a bit too much of a cheap victory for me. So here's one very last deal I'm going to propose to DBS...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6E6R3moWTI

This would have been my next set if I had matched the one he never submitted. Nollie impossible, ollie late flip, nollie big spin kiwi. It's 2 PM here, so I think it must be 1 PM in London... I want to give him one last chance, and say that he has until the end of the day (midnight here) to get the same line on film, or he gets his final letter. I won't grant him any extension since we've all been very patient so far, if it's raining he'll have to make it to an indoor spot (I think part of South Banks has a roof right ?), and he'll have to find a camera. So it's not going to be easy, but I'm pretty sure he can do it if he wants to stay in the game, so let's give him a last symbolic chance ;)

not gonna happen i am afraid, its been really winding me up that my stints in these games have been plagued by camera problems but its better for everyone if the game just ends i guess, and i'm sure i won't be hit by the same kind of bad luck as i have over the last few weeks, ah well, congrats to Mrck for retaining his crown, perhaps we should rename this MRCKgos :P

I'm sure you'll have more luck next time, not to mention that I've been particularly mean in this game, I used a switch / nollie kiwi banana raspberry flip-flop in all my lines just for you, because I wanted you to learn them, they're fun :icon_poke But now I'm running out of variations, I only have a few left {rf)

But heh, when you take a peek at the list of the tricks that were set in this game and its previous edition, it's quite impressive :) I'd be for not resetting it in the next game, just to see how far everyone could get, and it would push everyone to learn new tricks. It shouldn't be a problem for anyone, since this is the advanced version of the game after all.

Anyway nice game everyone :icon_clap

im all for not resetting the tricks, its what makes this game what it is i think :)
