sleeper challenge, now thats my kind of competition...

Post by **GT3x24x7** » 24 Feb 2004, 20:32

yeh, sounds dope eh? we still working up the rules - it's gonna be the week after next so there's plenty of time. any thoughts on the rules themselves mate? ie how tdo you define a sleeper in nfsu terms??

Grez~Supra_RZ-S · Post by **Grez~Supra_RZ-S** » 24 Feb 2004, 23:28

well usually a sleeper means a stock looking car from the outside, but modded internals, but that wouldnt make much of a competition. You could make it basically no vinyls or flip paints, that would work

Abrams · Post by **Abrams** » 24 Feb 2004, 23:56

well but you have to make it up somehow...thats really "brain work"

btw thestig yr russian?

Grez~Supra_RZ-S · Post by **Grez~Supra_RZ-S** » 25 Feb 2004, 00:07

like this sort of style:

Post by **GT3x24x7** » 25 Feb 2004, 00:14

Yuo, that's a sleeper alright. There was a suggestion earlier to keep the style points under four stars, along with no decals or vinyls. That would defintiely yeild a sleeper every time IMO...

Abrams · Post by **Abrams** » 25 Feb 2004, 00:15

maybe only gloss paint

?

Post by **GT3x24x7** » 25 Feb 2004, 00:19

Like that idea Abrams - ppl would have to take their screenie with the gloss paint palette showing to prove it...

>>> PinkChallenge Snapshot: Tuesday 11pm GST <<<

Ok, this thing is wrapping up ppl, we've seen very little change in the user and entrant ratings the past two days. As usual, the guesties are all over the place...

Still To Vote

GT3's Skyline: all votes are in
Dunway's Eclipse: strung_out180, carpe noctem, bronco
Sic's Miata: bronco
Stig's Celica: strung_out180, carpe noctem, bronco
Shui's 240SX: bronco
Strungs' Eclipse: bronco
Bronco's 206: strung_out180, carpe noctem
Carpe's Skyline: bronco

So, as you can see, there are still a few entrant votes to come, most notably from BRONCO, which will prolly bring the thing down to the wire. Now I ain't gonna be chasing ur votes for you guys, I've done enough on that front and the comp will finish 11pm GMT regardless of wether all votes are in. So now it's down to you. Everyone has an outstanding vote or two - I suggest you get on the PMs and start lobbying these guys to come vote ur car!!

Hmm, I smell a little strategy brewing actually...

Post by **TheStig** » 25 Feb 2004, 16:40

BTW no Im not Russian.... not even close comrad...

dunno about the Gloss Paint.. cause I am not a fan of gloss not in the game not in real life...

think the paint can be anything... there are a lot of Metallic and Parelessent paints that do look normal (like the Silver metallic on the Parel part (last one second line... and the baby blue...)

but we really need to work some fine rules to make it a real challenge...

lets get to work GT ... PM time

taka a look at this for instance |

Post by **TheStig** » 25 Feb 2004, 16:41

common guys vote... need some votes... on my Pink celica

Post by **GT3x24x7** » 25 Feb 2004, 16:46

Yeh - these are nice dude. I still like the idea of limiting the rep points - has to be a three star car. Can be right on 3, or just about four, doesn't matter, so longs as the big star says 'x3'...

Post by **TheStig** » 25 Feb 2004, 16:50

sounds fair...

what a little ACE kit can't do...

Post by **GT3x24x7** » 25 Feb 2004, 16:57

Yeah - now that's what I'm talkin about - just a noce lightly modded car that'd you could quite probably see driving down the street. How ricey can u make i tlook without decals/vinyls and still stay under 4 stars??
