lets have a casual race tonight at 8pm~

not your usual host, but it cant be that hard... right?

anyway, i am sure we will have fun and dont worry about the time difference, i will make a post 30 mins before we start playing

Hell yeah I'm in >:3

damn... i really do wonder where is everyone...

Barely surviving but I'll try and see if I can't do a couple races today

Sounds cool, I'll try to make it. Haven't joined in a while.

>>49638344
Game night anons moved to Pissu

>>49638478
fuck is that

>>49638368
you ok?
>>49638478
unfortunate, the jannies and mods really are a blight on this site, so i dont blame game night anons for leaving to greener pastures

Hell yeah let's race, you can do this OP

>important shit
Remember that July's tournament will be delayed by a week and thus will be held on Friday July 11th.
I won't be able to join you guys next weekend as I'll be in ultra monk stasis mode in prep for the important moon runes exam that weekend, but I'll host July's tourney as usual next Friday.

Please keep this thread up this week in case you guys wanna race again this Friday night, it'd be cool to have an all Clownpiece race or two to celebrate America's birthday lmao.

the match will start in around 30 mins!
>>49638528
thanks and i guess i will keep hosting in the meantime

15 mins left, time to finish that dinner

>>49638589

>>49638746
I was fully prepared to be one of the first to join but then I got distracted playing 18.5...if my wifi can keep it together for long enough though then I should still be able to get some decent racing in

going to join back?

Damn with this turnout and the anons missing I'm starting to think we're seriously gonna need qualis for next tourney.....

I fucked up so bad that race lol

holy shit... sanae is such a bitch...

>>49638761
yeah, but how would it go? do we have something planned?

where the fuck was sanae's bullshit when I needed it in that last fucking race

>>49638799

SEIJA!!!!!!

Nice. Got my win! Forest is my best stag,

>>49638819

>>49638835

>>49638848
There was a time where I had a good run going with Old Capital but I guess he was the og of that one before me

>>49638837
Damn you Sanae and your big donation-causing destruction tits...

>>49638857
Ok back lfg

starting in 20 seconds

ayo where cherry

wait, is cherry gone?

Connection on my PC died, I guess that’s all the racing I can afford today. Have fun with the rest of the races though!

well, i guess he is gone... lets keep racing then

His wifi must've committed seppuku...

I swear to fucking god fester never fucking wins and only exists to fuck shit up with sanae

damn, accidentally left and now one of you is the host

>>49638915
Hehehehe, I'm an agent of chaos Anon. Even if I rarely ever win, I'll have my fun in my own way!

fester start the gaimu

>>49638923
Sorry, I hadn't noticed I of all people became the host. Wtf.

That's it for me dawgs
Thanks for hosting!!!!!!! Super fun as always

Hope you have fun next weekend if you get to race. I'll see you all on July 11th for the 5th championship!!!!!!

Prepare you're anuses and in the meantime come up with ideas on how we can deal with the too many people wanting to race issue/how we're gonna do qualis

I'm bowing out too friends. Was fun as always! See you guys next time.

thanks for coming, it was fun and went way better than i expected! for a moment i was scared that zero people were going to show up haha... it was worth getting nuked by that green fa-i mean friend...

Might as well preemptively get started on my Marisa/Reimu drawing, fucking hell. Good races!

>>49638954
Wdym it was pretty even, Idk if Kaiser won the most races. And, did you forget what happened last time?

I feel like this clip I took perfectly encapsulates what Skydrift nights with /jp/ usually go:
https://files.catbox.moe/wvles4.MP4
At least for me...

>>49638954
dont worry, i have a particular skill that allows me to fuck my shit up just when i am about to win
>>49638969
we dont talk about last time...

>>49638988
>https://files.catbox.moe/wvles4.MP4
Holy kek lmao
That video really is the perfect summary of the Skydrift experience. You rekt everyone's shit like 30 ft from the finish line and BAM motherfucker – dead last. I rage so much at this shit but also wouldn't trade race nights for any other game.

>>49638921
Yeah fuck you anyway
we still love you tho and missed you at the tourneys

>>49639488
D’awww, that’s kind of you to say. It’s good to be back.

An anon asked last thread if the game was streamed but the thread got archived before anyone answered, but no, the game's not currently streamed.
I'm not opposed to the idea but I honestly don't even know how we'd go about that since I lack the technical know how to stream. But maye someone's interested?

>>49645427
i think i remeber some people saying that they wouldnt really like being on a stream, because privacy or shyness... i personally wouldnt mind mainly because is not like anyone is going to see it besides us, but i would hate if someone stopped racing with us because of the stream, so this really needs to be disscussed throughly

>>49648032
I feel like streaming on cytube would open up some nice possibilities, like having an audience form people from the board that might be interested in joining or just expectating with all the cheering, memes and shitposting streaming a live event brings.
The anons who get left out on tournaments also get to see the action from the stands at least instead of missing out entirely.
It would also offer a live chat for the people racing since the game lacks that.
But as I said I don't even know the technicalities of streaming and idek if my interent is good enough to host it reliably, but if anyone is willing to try it out and everyone else agrees then I'd be totally okay with it

>>49638507
A /jp/ spinoff. The Sven, Doom, and L4D2 game nights moved there during the hack.

is it only me or does the board feels faster? i swear threads are sliding to page ten in a day when they used to last a week

>>49653303
Faster and yet slower at times. The /v/hu refuges might have something to do with it, I think.

>>49653303
>>49655178
I HATE /v/ermin and I'd be beyond disappointed if any of the regular Skydrift anons were posters in the /v/hu thread

>>49655178
I can't tell if the board is healing in any way that matters or not or if others are just trying to keep together what they still have here, sometimes the board has felt a little more ghost town-y than normal but other times it just seems like anons are congregating elsewhere far more linearly in some isolated threads of higher quality.
Some threads really are still decent but others just tell me it might be time to take the site behind the woodshed for good, as depressing as that is.

I missed this thread. Haven't been checking in often. Eventually, I'll get last tourney's image done, after I'm done coloring a different one I'm working on.

>>49656457
I have not forgotten, Ran-shama. Though I trust that the final product will still be well worth the wait all the same.
btw are you going to be desert bussing with us in a few days? maybe you can knock out the drawing during the trip.

>>49656471
I shall. It shouldn't take that long but I could start the nue/seija one I have roughly sketched out during then. The last hangup I got through was trying to make the coloring look good in their respective sections and get masks to fit the lines correctly. In doing so I discovered krita had a colorize mask tool which would've made prior skydrift images significantly less of a pain in the ass to color, but go figure I decided to use watercolors which dont work well with that tool. Either way, it'll get there.

>>49656497
Godspeed then, Krita gave me some trouble with some of its more specific tools at first as well (partially why I've been messing around in paint-adjacent programs a lot lately) but sounds like you just got past a pretty significant hurdle.
Sometimes experiments just don't work, the important thing is that you're still trying. See you on the bus!

>>49656471
>btw are you going to be desert bussing with us in a few days?
nta but what's this mean

>>49656544
Sort of has to do with what was talked about here: >>49651469
/jp/ anons on Kissu are getting together this weekend to sit in a cramped hot bus together for about 10 hours straight (in Sven) and it's practically the event of the season. Or at least it feels that way to me, I've been very very excited for it for the past few days.

WIth the next tourney looming in the horizon, I think it's time we really settle the two most pressing issues before push comes to shove:
>number of participants/potential qualis
>streaming
Any ideas?

>>49656064
youd be surprised

>>49659752
what is that supposed to mean

Falseflag. report and ignore

>>49645427
>>49648032
I wouldn't mind streaming but I'd appreciate if you moved to kissu or wap like every other game night host did. Most of us have zero appetite for this site anymore

Bump, so we don't have to make another thread.

>>49663605
Kissu has a cytube clone they use for streaming anime. Could ask around there for info on how to stream games.

>>49663605
has jp fallen? regardless of that, i guess we could also make a thread about it on kissu/wap too, it would mean we have more racists which means more fun and with this new tournament format based on qualifiers people wouldnt be left out... BUT... personally i would rather wait until we test it here, we still havent figured it out how would it work
>>49665072
thats not a bad idea, though whats the difference between cytube and kiSync?

>>49663605
>>49665072
>>49665814
I'm also not opposed to the idea of getting the word out on kissu but personally I won't leave /jp/
I also agree (if anons there wanna join our races/tourney) that we have to figure out and test a proper quali/streaming system in order to accomodate the demand

Race tonight! lets celebrate the 4th of july with our american bros!

i am planning to start at 8pm again, though i can change it if someone already has plans at that time

and of course, tonight there will be a twist, we can only use these characters:
Reisen, Futo, Clownpiece and Alice.
why not only clownpiece? i figured we needed some fireworks too, but dont worry we will have a race with only clownpiece too

>>49668830
Parsee mizuhashi

>>49668830
lmao why futo though?

>>49669211
We still need our explosion endings and Futo has the best fireworks for that today

the match will start in around 1 hour!

>>49669211

30~ mins left until showdown

>>49670279

Dear god, I can hardly function with how bad futo's drifting is...but I do like her special

DEAR GOD I'M LOSING MY MIND
I HAD THAT BUT THEN GOT STCUK ON GEOMETRY RIGHT ON THE END
(charlie brown scream)

never give up!

5 min pee(seethe) break, next race will be all clownpiece

At each other's throats fighting to see who can claim 3rd or 4th...

Surely nothing will go wrong with all clowpy.

we are missing one... lets wait and extra minute

>>49670462
gomen...my game gets mad at me if the window is minimized for too long

so no else is missing? alrigth

I take the lead just in time to get MOONED

that was way to close...

Sensei how much longer must we stay as the Clown for

>>49670499
thats the last one!

Did someone get stuck?

gomenasai... but i really wanted to try that map with full clownpiece, it went as expected

You racists have fun
See you all next Friday... for da tournament >:3

Now it's 9 dorks and one clowpi

>>49670511
I started going in circles at the very end of Old Capital cause I ran out of jester-branded Copium to huff, this has been a very cursed series of races for me

do you have a full lobby
who's missing

sorry whoever got left out, i noticed just when the race started
>>49670536
lol

I think I'll drop out as well, I have things I need to finish. Thanks for hosting!

>>49670545
no, we have two spaces left and here
>>49668830 his the info

>>49670545
I think someone just left so we're sitting at 3 open spots rn, hop in if you want to!

starting in 1 min

>>49670548
Take care then!

lmao futo

Alright I'm all raced out for today, also need to focus on some stuff. Great matches though! Today felt especially chaotic which was fun, happy burger day.

Right, I got pretty lights to watch. Good races, happy 4th!

i think that will be it for tonight, thanks for coming! it was fun, maybe we should have more thematic races like that... anyway happy 4th of july!

Couldn't make it tonight, family made burgers so I made a rare public appearance to spend some time with them and eat my favorite food. Hope you guys had fun!

>>49670580
Parsee day

>>49670655
Were they good borger
Will u be at the tourney

>>49670724
They were!
I'll try to be!

i was thinking that for the new tournament format, we could give each participant a number and we use a program to randomly select the numbers to see who is racing, each participant can be picked up to 5 times and best 7 qualify for the championship, what do you guys think?

>>49674016
You have my attention but dumb it down further, senpai

>>49674016
Mmm...it sounds fine to me. Any solution at all at this point is better than nothing, after all.

>>49674400
part 1:
whoever wants to participate has to write down his name and we give them a random number:
cirno 1
reimu 2
seija 3
tenshi 4
....
....
nue 14.
then we randomly pick seven numbers, make them have a race and give them points based on their performance, we do this 5(maybe more?) times. this will be the qualifiers
part 2:
once everyone have played at least 5 times, we check who are the 7 racists with the most points and they will pass into the final stage which is how the tournament usually plays.

this is just a basic idea, but i think this way everyone will get to play and we have a bit of luck involved

>>49674643
Yo that sounds nice, we could use the same points system already in place too.
But I'm thinking it'd have to be done the day before the tourney since the tournament itself is already time consuming (especially now with 12 rounds). We'll have to rely on people actually showing up to both events.

Why dont some of you who go to kissu spread the word there to bring some more ppl in the first place
