First impressions

First two weeks have passed, and I've played eight of the games. As I said before, I have no much time, but this year I'll play until the end, I don't know if I'll be able to fight for the victory, but I'm going to try it...

Some comments about the games I've played for now...

• Daley Thompson's Decathlon: I've played very few games and got a good record, but it'll be beated.
• Turmoil: This is one of I like most. I've not played too much, but I think I'll reach last stage.
• Gotcha: Frustrating game, you have to play hundreds of games to control it right. I think this game is getting crazy to more than one player :).
• Galactic Trooper: Another good game. I like it!, but it's true that playing at 50k points it's hard... As I said to Alex, final score will be 70-75k.
• Beaky: I've only played four games, and got first place, so I think I won't be at top too much time.
• Android 2: One of my favorites, it seems very hard at first 50 games... and it is!. I have to train a lot...
• Uridium: Zoran has got a very good score, I'm at 2nd place but I think this week I'll be 4th or 5th.
• Dictator: It seemed strange to me at first glance, but it's not bad game... and its timing has let me play it while I'm looking after my daughter :)

There are another two games I've not played at all. Lotus and Codename Mat... may be they will have some chances...

Speccy Tour starts tonight!

Here we are!, one more year SpeccyTour is going to start tonight at 0:00 GMT+0, it means that players from Denmark, Italy, France, Serbia and Spain, are able to submit recordings at 1:00 GMT+1, and Uruguayan player at 21:00 GMT-3.

I think this edition will be amazing or at least different because of new scoreboard system, that will give more chances to regular players, so you don't need to be a monster to have good points. And don't get frustrated if a game seems hard at first plays, I asure you that you'll get to be a good in a game if you play it regulary.

Well, games (snapshots) are available to download here. I'll put the link at blogs's right side too. Remember to read first the special rules (also translated to Spanish)since if you avoid some of them, your recordings will be disqualified. Also it's important to say again that recording at last two weeks will need a code that you'll have use, but we will calculate that code when time arrives...

About demos... It has been problems with Codename Mat demo, I can't replay it, so the video is unavailable, Dictator's demo is 30 minutes long, so you have to view it through RZX file. The rest of video demos (Gotcha and Galactic Trooper) are uploaded at our Video Channel.
