Won't be able to make the test run today but I am interested to hear the results. Sounds like a good plan/fix for the autostart problem.

Hey VGChartz Members, I'm starting a Tournament running every Saturday from 8:00pm UK time to midnight called VGChartz Boyz and would love as many people as possible to join, search for code 9317-1338-7440, thanks and hopefully see fellow VGChartz members on the start line :)

As much as my eyes are burned this was more a case of the lazies. Didn't even see the announcement post, nor did I check for the Tuesday test. Now that I think about it, I don't even know where I heard of the test run.

Good that I started the update half an hour ago. That thing takes forever.

Looks like I'll be able to participate in the test run. I've read all info and will be there.

I backed out since there was only three of us and I seemed to be the only one who'd picked a stage by the time the timer hit "1". Later returned to find one lone new user.

WTF was this?

Not only did some people already have a race before the tournament started but everyone left after the 4th race.
I definitely wasn't late. I checked the tournament every few seconds and immediately joined as soon as it didn't display the warning anymore.

I figured I wasn't the only one having issues.


Guess this pretty much makes friend rooms mandatory. Worked well with Conegamer the other day where we were able to gather all nine participants into a few races.

So it looks like the tournament will not be unlocked until about 2 minutes after the time for me. Of course people will be racing already -.-

did you guys already start?

So I got into the first Tourney without issue. Only 5-6 people. It ended in about 20 minutes. When I went to check out the second Tourney, it said it was not open yet. Seems you can go in and practice, but no one was there. I waited until the proper time for the second Tourney and it would not let me in. Said it was not open. I am guessing because a practise race was going on maybe? Once it told me I could enter, it let me spectate a two person race, and when it was over, no one was there. I waited for a few minutes, going back in and out of the Tourney, but no one else showed up. Were there problems or did everyone just leave?
