Qualification System:

Just local records count.
- 6 new hunting maps: The best non-qualified time on every map will be qualified for the 2nd round.
- 1 new unlimiter-only map: The two fastest unqualified times will be qualified for the 2nd round.
- 4 special events with the option to qualify there:

Pathfinding event: Three players will qualify here. The first two spots will go to the first and second finisher of the map, and the third spot will go to the fastest non-qualified time in the map. For the first run competition, players can get help from everybody except the author(s) of the map and beta-testers.

KO event: Players will drive in Knock-Out mode, with previous training of the map that will be played here. The fastest time on the map will qualify (could be driven in Time Attack or even in the KO Phase), and the KO winner will qualify too (If the winner is already qualified, the best non-qualified driver will qualify).
KO mode is played in ROUNDS where on every round, the slowest times of the round are kicked (Depending on the number of players, there will be more or less kicks per round, which will be announced just before the beginning of every round).

Duo event: Teams will consist of two players where they will need the partner to get the fastest time combined. The 2 teams with the lowest time combined (Player A + Player B times) will qualify for the 2nd round. One player can only be in 1 team. Both members of the team have to finish the map at least once. If one player of any of the two fastest teams was already qualified, his teammate + fastest time on the map will qualify.

Laps event: Players will compete for 3 qualify spots here. First one will go to the fastest non-qualified time (Local Records), that could be driven either in Time Attack, or Laps mode. The other 2 spots, will go to the Top2 finishers in laps mode.

- Every mappack has 3 maps.
- Fastest time on the pathfinder map will go to group A. Fastest times on the the 1st Hunting Mappack will go to Group B, C and D, following the map order. The rest of the qualified players will be randomly placed in any of the 4 groups, including the first two finishers on the pathfinder event.
- 20 players will qualify for the 2nd round.
- Builders can't qualify on their own map.
- An already qualified player, won't count on the next qualification maps, but he can still play for the special events prizes.
- Some maps will get an special points reward for the finals (Only applicable if you reach the finals):

1st finisher of pathfinding: 5 points
Duo team winner: 3 points per player
Winner of KO event: 3 points
Fastest time on Unlimiter map: 3 points
Winner of Laps race: 4 points

2nd Round:
- 4 groups of 5 players each.
- Fastest time on the pathfinder map will go to group A. Fastest times on the the 1st Hunting Mappack will go to Group B, C and D, following the map order. The rest of the qualified players will be randomly placed in any of the 4 groups, including the first two finishers on the pathfinder event.
- Top2 of every group will advance to the finals.
- The two best 3rd place drivers will go to the final too.
- If there's an equal result between players of the same group, the driver with the best rank out of the 3 maps will be ahead. If it keeps being equal, the driver with the best local record on any of the 3 maps will be ahead.
- Gamemode: Time Attack.
- Point system: 15, 11, 8, 5, 3.
- Not qualified drivers and drivers from different groups won't be counting towards your personal group. Points will be given separately on every map, being 45 points the maximum points a player can have.

Final:
- 1 group with 10 drivers.
- Gamemodes: Time Attack & Rounds.
- Cuts & altways allowed in TA Phase, only cuts allowed in Rounds.
- Non-qualified drivers can drive on the server, but they won't count. If a non-qualified driver gets a Local 1, the best time from the finalists will get 30 points anyways.
- If there's an equal result between any finalists, the driver with the best rank out of 3 maps will be ahead. If it keeps being equal, the driver with the best local record on any of the 3 maps will be ahead.
- Points system (TA): 30, 25, 20, 16, 13, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2
- Points system (Rounds): 20, 15, 11, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

All the events starts at 4pm or 5pm?
All of us, who are working (I guess not I'm, the only one that old ) won't be available at these times. 7pm/8pm would be much better on weekdays imo...or put the events to weekends, like the Laps Race.

Duo event and KO event have been changed order in the schedule. Now Duo event will be from Wednesday to Friday, and KO from friday to sunday.

About the start of special events, such as laps or KO, it's not 100% definitive that it will be at 17h, might be possible to move it to 18h, or even 19h, depending on how available players are.

First mappack video has been released!

Little change in the rules for the KO and Laps maps: Cuts and altways are not allowed in those maps. If you don't know whether you are driving the original route or not, feel free to ask me. Drivers using cuts will have their times DSQ, and won't count, so make sure not to use it/them.

To play the Unlimiter Map, you must have 1.2 version installed. If you don't have it, follow these links:
Unlimiter 1.2 for Nations players: http://www.kemot0055.boo.pl/tm/unlimite ... ATIONS.exe
Unlimier 1.2 for United players: http://www.kemot0055.boo.pl/tm/unlimite ... UNITED.exe

If you have any problems with the installation, make sure to talk to me and we will sort it out.
After you have Unlimiter 1.2 successfully installed, download Yggdrasil Mediapack, which includes everything the map uses: http://www.sendspace.com/file/54zerk

Put this .zip in your Trackmania folder that you will find in Documents, and then just extract all the stuff there, and the files will be automatically placed in their place.

Also, if you are playing TMNF with steam, I recommend you to download the game outside steam, and then follow the steps above: http://trackmaniaforever.com/nations/

Thanks everyone for participating in the cup in one way or another. It was awesome to organize another cup, and it worked very very nicely so I'm glad of that. There have been some drama, but what's a cup without drama? Anyways, I enjoyed this full month of people hunting new RPGs, meeting new people and finding out new competent RPG hunters!

What's next? I have no idea but I'd like to keep organizing more cups, if that brings more activity to the RPG scene, which is my main goal, aswell as give people new stuff and a fun experience (:
