Giovanolafan Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 What Is Track Tennis? Track Tennis is based heavily on a similar group activity called "Photo-Chop" or "Photoshop Tennis" - a game in which people take turns adding things to an image, until the image looks almost nothing like it did at the start. It is built up, using a base image as a starting point. Track Tennis is similar in that a seed track file is provided by a "Game Referee" (whoever starts the game), and then people add elements to it, one at a time, until the track is done. How To Play A Game Referee will post a seed track file. It may have a basic beginning (a station and lift, for example), or it may be empty. The first player will post a notice that says "work in progress" or similar. No one else may work on the track at this time. The player then has 3 days to add one (1) element to the track file. An element is defined as one (1) of the following: 1. A track element - Such as a zero-g roll, or a corkscrew, or a loop, or a cobra roll, or a drop, or a turn, or a block brake, or a lift, etc. Note that interlocking corkscrews count as multiple elements (2 corkscrews and a turn around) and must be constructed over multiple turns. 2. A scenery object (either 3ds or made from supports) such as a building, or a queue, or a sign, or a bridge, etc. Note that "a pile of rocks", for example, may consist of multiple 3ds objects, but are collectivly one element. 3. Some terraforming. Amount is undefined - Use your discretion. 4. Supports. Amount is undefined - Use your discretion. It is suggested that you support at least one element of track work at a time, however. After the player has added their one element, they will upload the new version of the track file for review by the Match Referee. The Match Referee will make sure that the player did not alter any work which was done by previous players, optionally advise the player on "quick fixes" they may want to consider, and then announce that the track is ready for the next player. This process repeats until the track is done (decided by the Match Referee) and the track is posted for public download. The Rules Are As Follows: I'll Pick a Random players from a Hat to decide in order you go Ie I Pick Ben first the John so ben goes first John goes second After all the turns I'll look at the track and check it out see if everythings ok. The Players turn lasts 3 days, if you pass 3 days then the next player goes. after 15 Rounds a new game is started and you can play again but it is First Come First Serve. Max. Players is 10 Not Including Ref. So Sign Up Soon First Come First Serve! Order of Play 1. benzo41190 2. coasterlover4202 3.

benzo41190 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 OK, I got my turn done. It was hard for me to choose how to theme it and what type of ride it should be. But I had an idea for a airtime filled, high speed, layout for the ride. So I added a 90 degree turn, left to right, with a airtime hill. I call the element a "kicker". I hope I started the game off right turn 1 (benzo41190).nltrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
