May I ask you, haenry, from where did you take this quote, cause I don't remember I've actually ever written it? :)

We just went throught the semi finals, it was really exciting!

We played on a short cup mode, with no train or warmup time. Maps were short, around 30 sec. It made every race pretty hot, and everyone enjoyed the competition. At least I did! :lol:

Pretty big names did come on top and are qualified for the finals:

Bergie
Hakki Junior
Kewin

I wish them all good luck! The map selection is gonna be different from today's.

We had a little confusion a the beginning, the Swedish comentator saying one thing in Swedish, as we were saying something different in English. I hope it was not too confusing for players present there, and I apologize if it was :mrgreen:. We barely know how to count up to 5, and its our first time in Sweden. But I,ll make sure next time we do not have the same kind of issue.

A little reminder to follow tomorrow's finale:

9pm CET at http://www.dreamhack.tv/, select main stage

-------------

EDIT:

I just thought it would be nice for guys to know:

For TrackMania² Canyon first tournaments, we will try a new game mode.


It is a modified version of the traditional cup mode.

5 maps, with 4 rounds on each map. Players have a warm up time of 5 minutes before the game starts, and no warm up after the match is started.



1.Everyone starts at the same time.

2.The first to finish wins 1 point, others don't score any.

3.The first player to reach the 7 points limit wins the tournament.

4.The second to reach the 7 points limit takes the second place.

5.Players race until 2 players have reached the 7 points limit.



There is a 10 000 Swedish Crowns prize for the finals' winner, and a 5000 Swedish Crowns prize for the second place.

Third does not win any money prize, but Intel offers to send a CPU to the third seed (1500 Swedish Crowns value).
