PostSubject: Hi, I'm bazoo, nice to meet you.   Hi, I'm bazoo, nice to meet you. Icon_minitime14/2/2015, 16:31

I have already posted on some topics, but I guess a should introduce myself anyway.

Hi, I'm bazoo, my real name is Nacho, I'm 21 years old and I'm from Valencia, at the east of Spain. I started playing CTR as a child, in one my friend's house. After that, my father got me a pirated copy, which featured a super cool cracktro/PAL-NTSC selector from Kalisto. CTR has been always my favorite videogame. I enjoy playing it even more every time, and it's one of the fewer games out there that make me furiously press the buttons of the gamepad 'till my fingers hurts, you know what feeling I'm talking about. I knew this site (& CTR4ever) existed since a few years ago, but never really challenged myself to beat my own times as hard as people around here does, and by the design of the site I though it was totally abandoned. But now I'm here, eager to learn the techniques to make the fastest times posible.

I play on an emulator for obvious reasons, upgraded visuals being the main of them, but also because of the ease of memory card management and because my old TV is has a small screen yet is bigger than my monitor, lol.

If someone wants to contact me, the best bet will be through Steam: my profile. Lately there're lots of bots trying to steal accounts, so if you add me, tell me that you come from here.

Alright, presentation done. Now I have some questions to break the ice, I'll make a new post about some of them... maybe...

Any plans on updating the design of the site ctr4ever?
The visual style is horrible and lacks of functionability in some parts. Some pages are incomplete or doesn't have any content at all and it's old overall Sad

Standards are going to be updated?
There are some standards that obviously doesn't count some 'new' shortcuts, most notable Hot Air Skyway, Oxide Station and Slide Coliseum. Anyone have though about this?

How do you deal with frustration?
What to do when you are doing great and something goes horribly wrong ruining your run?

Hi and welcome to the forum Very Happy Its cool when new people come here.


Any plans on updating the design of the site ctr4ever?

I dont know if joora think about the design, ctr4ever has enough problems with its database. However, alpha is the closest person to joora, he maybe knows.

Standards are going to be updated?

If Im right, standars had been discussed before many times, but I don't know too much about this.

How do you deal with frustration?
If Im doing a great run and I crash or something I get very mad xD But I try to calm down fast for the next attempt as Ive been adviced

Joora was working on a completely new site with more functionalities, a project known as ctr4ever v2, but he gave up on the task, and it's unlikely he will spend much more time on ambitious things. the best we can ask him is to keep the site going.

They probably won't be updated because surprisingly, a lot of players are opposed to this. I suppose an update could be done, however... This was one of the points which was discussed at the time the project of ctr4ever v2 was still going.

I have an ant farm.

Whenever I get angry, I like to pretend that I am a blood-thirsty monster and I kill ants one by one, going on a murderous rampage. As I am doing this, I like to imagine that the ants that I've killed have families that loved them, and I rejoice at the thought of how much sorrow and despair I've caused unto their lives.

Man, that's disturbing... You need psychological help.



About the site design, the best I can do is to change the stylesheet of the webpage. I've been working on it these last hours and this is what I got: Skin by bazoo Smile

What is this? Just a .css document. It is meant to be used with Stylish or some similar tool. Is not totally finished and only Firefox has been tested. It will change the color scheme as well as fix a bug regarding the width of the page(or at least it is supposed to, lol).

sooo I guess I shouldn't tell you guys about my goldfish farm?

About site design, impressive work, considering you did all this without any guarantee that it's going to be used at all. I can share your work with joora, but I'm personally not convinced ctr4ever needs a new look.

Of course it's going to be used, at least by me. And thanks for the offering of sharing it with joora, but this stylesheet can be buggy(especially the header change), isn't finished yet and may not work on some browsers, so there is no need to bother joora with this skin... but tell him to work on ctr4ever2!! tongue .

Hahah, i still have that pirate CTR from Kalisto, but doesn't work b'cuz the disk have scratchs...
About the new ctr4ever site, i'm thinkin' about this for a long time... I'll contact my cousin to see if he is interested to help me with some .php codes (maybe take 1,5 years or more, a loooong project).

A site with new criteria for stantards and new modes for competition is one of the goals (like rank per versions, SL rank, rank per country, etc).
Imagine a GOD time in Crash Cove as sub 1'18''50 and 25"10 xD

Hey, thats a lot of codes xD Sorry if I sound ignorant but, how can I see how your design looks? I have to install that addon for Firefox or maybe I can see a preview online? Smile

well it's nothing really, but it's pretty expensive to keep up, what with the eating goldfishes every time I throw a fit.

Did you contact your cousin? I'd really like to see this happening.
I know some HTML, CSS & JavaScript, so I can try my best to do the frontend if you want to team up with me. And one and a half year is too much, lol, is not that hard.
