I hope you like this simple image. :)
However, the forum does not show the image correctly. A bit of the part is missing and I don't know how to solve that. I recommend you to take a look at the ''Full pic'' as I've shown above.

Hello guys,

Thanks to the new possibilites of the third update, the amount of titlepacks increases. Thanks to the new update as well, you can easily find all titlepacks, including those of the players. This feature is known as the ''store'' and it shall solve the well known titlepack issue. Unfortunately, even now, the most titlepacks are characterized by having mostly empty servers. This is fairly easy to explain: If there are no players on the server, they don't join. And if it isn't a friend of the titlepack creator or a team member, he doesn't want to stay on the server until other people join because usually it takes a lot time until ''titlepack-servers'' get full.

It's quite a shame that these titlepacks remain unpopular or rather aren't that often played, because they are all so interesting and unique. I didn't have the chance yet to discover all modes/titlepacks because the servers were empty and instead of waiting endless hours, I would like to suggest something which isn't really new:

I would like to create a group of a few, consistent people who are also interested in playing the titlepacks which are mostly empty. We would set up meetings ( a certain time which we would discuss then, depending when you have time ) . We would play each meeting on a different titlepack to give new modes a try. If there are a few people playing on a server, other people will see it (probably in the store) and will hopefully join. That is basically the main idea.

Pls keep in mind that this shall not be regarded as a duty for these people who are in the group. If you haven't got time, it's absolutely fine :mrgreen: .
It shall rather give people the chance to test out & play the mode and finally to have some fun. It shall also support all the fantastic titlepacks.

If you are interesting to join this little fun-group, write a comment / PM or simply contact me ingame. My login-name is ''Soprah''.

I've created a new maniaflash channel. Pls bookmark it so I have a better overview who wants to participate :thumbsup:
Just type in ''Maniaflash?MTP"
There you'll find further information for the future, such as the first meetings etc.


Let's have some fun :3

Best greetings,
Soprah

I had the same idea a few weeks ago. Thought about a website where people could create events and people can opt in, so you have an overview of how many people want to particapate in that event.

So, count me in, though I do not have much time at the moment. I would have to check every time wether I can join in.
If there are a few people playing on a server, other people will see it (probably in the store) and will hopefully join.

This will probably not happen, I think people are not checking the store that often (well, at least I don't)^^

Great idea with the website. I was thinking about a maniaflash where I would announce the meetings and the people can say in the comment-section whether they want to particapte or not.

@TMJinzo,

Wow, that's an incredible amount of subscribers! It would be a pleasure if you share it.
Shall I create a manialink then and you link the bookmarkers to this manialink to keep things organized?
Having one certain spot where everyone can easily find all information about this little project would be appropiate, I guess? ^^

@Fleo,

Pretty nice, hopefully more people will give you feedback about your titlepack then! :thumbsup:
I am still thinking about suggestions for your mode, I'll write it later.


The number of participants is growing :yes:

@Soprah: I can share to all bookmarkers a message with a manialink link (lol xD), that you will create for this idea, i can ask other manialink creators to share this idea (maybe kripke or Mr.DVD. I think they have over 2000 Bookmarkers or more) :D
