Re: Nthellworld Top Spin Tourine
 
Yep, I'd be up for it :)

Just a standard knockout tourney rather than a league season or a tour?

If this is the one I've joined already, I'm there, but I'm already in one with Red as well, not to mention Amped2 with Xice, so I won't be joining a third tourney. I'm at my limit cause there are other games to play and I need to get my Amped2 character finished.

Re: Nthellworld Top Spin Tourine
 
I'm up for it. Just tell me what I need to do and when its going to start.

Tezcatlipoca 20-11-2003 13:15

Re: Nthellworld Top Spin Tourine
 
Don't know when it will start. Jar hasn't set it up yet - he's waiting to see how many players there will be.

As Morris has said, there's a couple of things you need to do first before you can use XSN:

1) Your Gamertag must be "linked" to a .NET Passport. You can do this at www.xbox.com. If you don't already have a .NET Passport, you can assign one to your existing email address (or get a new Hotmail address) at www.passport.net.

2) You then need to sign up to www.xsnsports.com, using the .NET Passport that you have already linked to your Gamertag.

Once the Tourney has started, you'll get an invite on the XSN website, which you will need to accept to enter the tourney. It will also give you a password which you will need to note down.

XSN will pick who you have to play, & by when, & inform you. Arrange with your opponent when you are playing. Go on Live & start an XSN Top Spin game, entering the Tourney code & so on.

The results get updated on the XSN site soon after the Top Spin XSN match has finished.

I'm in

Jarandco 20-11-2003 15:58

Re: Nthellworld Top Spin Tourine
 
Ok well we have at least 9 at the moment, possibly 10 if boom did play, but the game limits you to 4,8,16 or 32, now currently 8 seems the best one to choose unless we manage to find 7 other people that will be interested??

p.s. thanks for that info tez - very useful for anyone who hasent signed up!

Ricky G 20-11-2003 17:44

Re: Nthellworld Top Spin Tourine
 
Sweet!

Do I have to add any particular name tag to my freinds list?

Jarandco 20-11-2003 18:10

Re: Nthellworld Top Spin Tourine
 
It will depend on who you will have to play, but i will give a litle bit more time before i set up just incase we can manage 16 if not ill go for 8 and someone will have to drop out, probabbly but lets hope that wont happen! :)

Exulus 24-11-2003 00:31

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
this game any good?

I might get it tomorrow! It looks pretty fun and with XSN it could be even better...

Yes ive read the review in OXM, sounds promising. Never played a tennis game on a console before though, but i have played outlaw volleyball so i guess its kinda similar!

Shall i go for it? :D

Exulus 24-11-2003 00:40

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1

Top Spin is a worthy addition to your collection. Go get yourself a copy, you know you want to! :)

£4.20 ? Where are you getting it from?

Exulus 24-11-2003 08:24

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
GAME!

Im guessing its £37.99 there (most new titles are).

-£3.80 from student discount NUS.
-£30 from Broken Sword.

:)

Exulus 24-11-2003 16:19

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
Jar, if there's still space I'll join, as Red's league was dissolved this morning.

Reddevil63 26-11-2003 03:26

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
Have created another league so check your email for invites.

Hopefully this one will get going.

Check same thread over at Britxbox...Top Spin forum

Exulus 30-11-2003 11:13

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
dissolved :(:(:(

Exulus 30-11-2003 11:30

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
how about making it public but sending invites to all the main people here as soon as it opens, and so any remaining spaces can be filled by anyone?

oh by the way can you play with the famous players or do you have to use your own profile? because if thats the case i need to get cracking on the tour thing cos i only have 4 stars!

Reddevil's one has been dissolved (BXB Spinners)

Jarandco's one, which this thread was originally for, hasn't actually been set up yet - he's waiting for Hornet's UK Beginners knockout to finish.

I'm not sure, tbh.

I think it would make sense if you're only allowed to use your own character.

But, when I played another XSN knockout a week ago, I'm sure it gave the option to choose character.

Jarandco 30-11-2003 14:33

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
You can choose any character but i think its better tyo use the one you made!

Reddevil63 30-11-2003 14:37

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
Have set up another comp (16 players this time) and have sent invites to:

Jar
Tez
Neon
Cas
Liq Len
Boom
Exulus
Hornet
McTim


Check your emails.

Have posted on BxB that this is first come, first served. (Except for above fellow Nthellers's who get a personal invite.:D)

Exulus 30-11-2003 16:56

Re: Top Spin Tournament: NTHW #1
 
yay cheers :D
