New teams

[CTG]

Mark L. Rivers, Duplode, Dark Chaser... three talents without team. I wonder what they would be able to reach in teamwork joining Damage/Cork's Crew/Meganium or founding a team together. It would make the teams competition sharp and more exciting. Who knows, maybe one of them needs only a good teammate to become a real champion.

Edit: I just recognized there's no team competition menu point in ZakStunts 2008. But still I think the same...

I hope to see a team competition in ZSC 2009... I never understood why Duplode and Mark are racing alone. With a good teamwork they could easily beat Ayrton.

Teams existing at the moment:

Cork's Crew: Bonzai Joe, Zak McKracken - inactive members: Argammon, Mislav, satanziege
Damage Inc: Krys Toff, Super Brian - inactive members: Diesel Joe, Leo Ramone, Paleke
Looping Warriors: Akoss Poo, CTG, Usrin
Meganium Aces High: AbuRaf 70, Alan Rotoi, Ayrton, Chulk; inactive member: Gutix

Teams that would be nice to see (again):

Natural Born pipsqueaks: JTK, KHR
Orion (bah...): Alain, Renato Biker
Silver Spirit: Dottore, CTG, CTG
Whatever team name, but a pro team: Dark Chaser, Duplode, Mark L. Rivers
Nordic Stunts team: Antti, Dinmor, dstien, Pavekiller
Warner Bros: Daffy Duck, Tweety Bird
Girl Power Team: Böbszlee, Lene, Lise, Lupuszka

[Mark L. Rivers]

With a good teamwork they could easily beat Ayrton.

I think I wouldn't have been able to copy the two Ayrton's hyper-flying slides in ZCT88 even I tried 3 or more months...

Not always beating him but still sometimes...

[BonzaiJoe]

I hope Pavekiller and dstien's team will soon be reality!

I think you can forget about Dinmor...

I also think girl power team is unrealistic (but would be so cool!)

Otherwise: great ideas! 

[Duplode]

In my case, I think it had much to do with the timing of my entrance on the community, maybe mixed with a little bit of a "lone wolf" attitude. After realizing the potential to be competitive, I set up to make my way up the scoreboards as far as possible. And under the circumstances of Season 2007 - dwindling number of pipsqueaks, no two active teams battling in the same scoreboard region, almost inexistent midfield battles in contests other than USC - I had little incentive for looking for a team back then. A year and a half later, looking from the perspective of a more seasoned pipsqueak, I'm glad to see that situation is getting reversed - and if we're indeed going to have fierce team battles in Zak'09 I would dearly consider options for taking part into it   

PS.: On Duplode/Darkie speculations: back in April we had some chats at JACStunts on forging a partnership, but just before it could materialize DC's computer broke down and he has not returned since then...

PS2.: As for Duplode/Mark, well, the only thing that I can restate at the moment is the deep admiration I have for my favourite rival...

... a deep admiration that, as you know, is absolutely reciprocal... 

[alanrotoi]

MeganiuM Aces High will be back at 2009!!

[Chulk]

MeganiuM Aces High will be back at 2009!!

Weeeh! Then I'll try harder to take part, but I make no promises...

[CTG]

I think you can forget about Dinmor...

What happened to him?

[BonzaiJoe]

He is alive and well and soon moving to Madrid with his girlfriend for a year. He doesn't play Stunts, but he hasn't forgotten about you guys.

[zaqrack]

which reminds me I need to cook some Frikadeller soon.

people move around... my former colleague and his girlfriend just moved to Aarhus

[CTG]

Zak, have you ever tried to persuade the colleagues to play Stunts? No Chinese pipsqueak so far...

[zaqrack]

That would be really hard.
Chinese in general have an addiciton to latest technologies and advance/improvement in general.
If they play *not on a phone/tablet* I am sure they would not revert to an old game - especially as probably computer penetration in the early- and mid-90s was so low in China that most people are fully unfamiliar with games from that era.

Also my whole team consists of 5 persons excluding myself, and 4 of them are women. Now we know women<->Stunts in most cases.

I'm sorry to hear it. It's a huge white spot on the map.
