    you can play trials on the pc?!?!? since when?!?!?
    lol i had better go and practice fishy business on the pc
    for TWC 2014



    it was a perfect time at TWC 2013 great job from redlynx and ubisoft
    awesome job organizing all the chaos and details of paris and the competition
    i know it wasnt easy....you guys are like the eye of the storm
    calm when everything around you is chaotic and changing
    blue badger, cannibal shogun, and pixel kitsune did a great job getting everyone around
    the city even with the confusion of subways and confused glances by the locals
    not expecting to see a crowd of english speaking gamers
    walk the streets or fill a restaraunt
    we made TWC 2013 happen and it was amazing



    and cheers to all of the other drivers.....epic live win xrotto
    and truly epic three days of rushing around the city of paris
    racing trials and enjoying the town
    with online friends who became friends in person
    thanx for the love redlynx!!!
    best three days of my life hands down

I hope next World Championship they make it so everyone is eligible. For a first trials world championship, I say it went pretty damn well.
    we raced the TWC finals on the pc
    if the competition was held on the xbox instead of being held on the pc
    it might have been a different outcome
    and xbox elitism might have held true
    if me and xrotto raced on xbox
    he would have been at a considerable disadvatage
    just like i was playing on the pc
    i never DNF on fishy buiseness
    the two platforms dont race the same way
    and the first time i had ever played trials gold was that day
    on stage......

    making a transition either from xbox to pc
    or from pc to xbox reduces your chances of winning in the world finals
    i found it too difficult to transition to the pc
    and beat a great player like xrotto
    xrotto thought it was unfair that i had to race the finals on pc
    when i only race xbox
    just like i thought it would have been unfair if xrotto was forced
    to race on the xbox when he hasnt for a long time and
    is rusty to the way xbox feels
    we talked about it after the race in person over food and beer
    but there was no other way to hold the finals with a live race
    without someone switching to a foreign platfom
    so its not so bad the way it happened
    its just a shame xrotto couldnt race on computer and me on xbox
    in a single live race......that would have been a race without DNF on my part

    cheers to xrotto even though he
    had home field advantage
    xrotto is an amazing player and also a friend

    Paris Games Week 2013 was an incredible experience, one that I probably will remember the rest of my life. Thanks to the awesome eight who showed the competitive side of Trials to the rest of the world and it was so nice meeting you all. Also thanks to the community for all the feedback and support they've to TWC 2013!

    I would like to say a massive thank you to Bluebadger and CannibalShogun, two great guys, for giving me the opportunity to have the best experience of my life. This competition has allowed me to meet some great people of all different nations combinded with the sights of a lovely city. Every person there was a joy to be around and talk to, no big ego's or animosity!
    Hopefully people can see the success of this tournament (including Ubisoft) and it will grow in popularity. More players will be eligible next year and people can see it will definately happen, which is only going to make for a better tournament for us to watch! Yeah i know i went through on a technicality, Ispeedrun did not have a passport, I was the one who previously raced him so i went through instead. I dont want any haters from that because i wished him the best of luck when he beat me and i wish him luck again in the future, so hopefully i gave you guys something to enjoy in the semi's.
    Props and big congratulations to the guys who made it to the main stage, the crowd was immensely huge, i could feel for you having to perform infront of all those people!!
    And ofcourse congratulations to Xrotto for winning!
    Wish everyone i met the best of luck in the future and hopefully we will see more of these tournaments with the competition being more fierce than before!

    Here you can find pictures that I and Pixel Kitsune took from Paris Games Week. We'll be adding more pictures to that folder in the future.

    Also you can press the download button to get all the images in a nice .zip

    I have slept for the last 2 days, recovering from that jet lag/20 hours of traveling. Just wanted to give a big shout out and thanks to Badger and Cannibal for putting on a great event. Glad I had this opportunity, once in a life time experience. Was amazing in all aspects. I felt like it was organized enough where I had no concerns or worries, but we were given enough freedom to have a great time while playing some trials along the way. Navigating the Paris subways with skiboda, TBN and JC was a blast. Those rodies were great

    All the other riders were awesome. Everyone had a good attitude win or loose, everyone showed some solid esportsmanship. Glad I got to meet the legend himself, TBNSoty! Went into fanboy mode. To everyone else it was a pleasure. Honestly enjoyed hanging out with all of you. Was expecting some real awkward people, but it was the opposite. I will be sending Badger a ton of pictures for everyone to see. Also recorded all of the final live. If anyone would like to see it, not the best quality, I will put it on my youtube.

    Until I get my pictures to badger I will leave you all with this.

    Congrats to the winner. But let me get it straight. The final was on PC as in using a keyboard? Or an xbox controller?? That doesn't seem right if one finalist is an xbox guy?

    Someone please correct me.
