Yep I should be able to make it for the first and last time in awhile. I'll be away travelling for the next 3 months but at the end of it I'll be living in London so I should be able to join more regularly.

My favourite photo of my brother and I (I'm the non-ginger one). We're in the front row of a Foo Fighters concert in Auckland in 2011. Photo is from the NZ Herald.

Yes collision-less races! Now 16 player races on tight tracks will work fine. Hopefully they'll allow 16 in air races now as well

Quad Bike Chaos was originally just a way to test out an idea but after playing a few of Otiz's races I think I've found a way to actually make it enjoyable. Everything is now much closer together and hopefully it should play out as a truly chaotic GTA race that's difficult to build a lead in. http://rsg.ms/PSIZrg Quad Bike Chaos Either gun it to the finish line or demolish your rivals, anything goes in this short GTA race. The 'Figure of 8' track with numerous close encounters, explosives and natural obstacles provides plenty opportunity to take out the opponents ahead of you. I think I'm gonna try improve my other two races as well. Reservoir Dash (http://rsg.ms/PSJCkw) was my attempt to copy Rockstar's formula for races. It's around an area of the map that I think has great potential for a track but mine didn't end up anywhere near as innovative as the amazing ones that were coming out around the same time. Bifta Beatdown (http://rsg.ms/PSKiWV) I like a lot more though but I haven't had the opportunity to play it with anybody yet to get some feedback. I'm probably not gonna be able to play the crew night again until Easter but I'll bring it up again then.

Kuz and Dio getting close Too close...

I've been wanting to try a team GTA race for awhile but not sure how well it'll go. I imagine that each team will split up into people trying to win the race and people trying to blow up the opposition but it probably won't go that smoothly. http://rsg.ms/PlnZJc Quad Bike Chaos TEAM GTA RACE: Either gun it to the finish line or demolish your rivals. Just make sure one of your teammates ends up on top. Basic 'Figure of 8' track with plenty explosives in the middle.

Yep I'll probably be there
-
The lighting there was awesome for the shot, it's a shame the darts trigger was there though. My votes for #3 Otiz/Dup. Haha yeah that was incredibly well done. I've never seen everybody so focused. Funniest part for me was when I got kicked from the session only to come back and hearing everybody yelling at my old NPC for ruining a shot lol (wasn't funny at the time, I know...)

Long weekend for me so I'm free all of Friday, Saturday and Sunday (US time)

My second character is black if you still need somebody for Bernie Mac. Otherwise I can be one of the photographers

Nope, there's a young black guy typing on an invisible keyboard in mine

Social Club won't load for me but none of my pics were anywhere near as good as these. It's a shame it wasn't showing me on the roof of the plane in bones' shots though. -
I can't make the crew night but I'm hoping there'll still be people on late Tuesday night (Wednesday afternoon my time) so I can try out the new DLC
-
I'm sitting on 4mil but this pack may bankrupt me. The turismo was my absolute favourite car in IV and the jester had some of the best mods in SA. I'll probably end up buying all the suits and weapons as well. Hell I may even get the plane, I have no self control.

I've been wanting to make a GTA race with Biftas for awhile. It's my favourite vehicle to fuck around in and I imagine being able to shoot rockets out of it will only make things more amazing. http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/member/grove_nz/games/gtav/jobs/job/E_d0dmdu7US-d9s1q4QKyQ?platformId= Bifta Beatdown Expect carnage as you battle your Biftas around a short but challenging off-road track in the Paleto Forest. Most explosive as a GTA race I need some feedback on the first corner most of all. Is it obvious that there's an immediate right turn? It's the only way I could get 16 vehicles lined up

My only photo from the last iGTA night. I was fucking around with Wiggan and somebody else and these red dots popped up. Any explanations? -
Won't make it for the playlist but it looks like I'm gonna get heated off work early tomorrow so I should be able to make the after-party shenanigans

Some of the videos from these guys are awesome but this isn't really one of them. What caught my attention though was at 0:31 somebody from the iGTA crew joined the game. It was too blurry to make out who it was so I have two questions; 1) Who was it that joined? 2) Who was filming it? They have to be in the iGTA crew for a msg to pop up telling them somebody else from the crew has joined This was posted only a couple days ago so it was after Massacre's filtering of the crew Edit: Ok at 2:52 it shows a whole bunch of people in the iGTA crew that I don't recognise so this must've been filmed before the cull. The filmer's PSN/Gamertag is 'the dead pixel'

Never noticed this topic before and I suppose I should introduce myself properly. My name's Matt but I've been using Grove as an online persona for the last 10 years because I absolutely loved GTA:SA. The first site I found in the lead up to GTA:SA was gta-sanandreas.com and I frequented the site under the alias M@2me. I don't normally have anything intelligent to add so I normally keep pretty quiet but I'm drunk fairly often so that can change. I'm from Dunedin in New Zealand but currently living in Melbourne, Australia. I'll be moving to England later on this year after a few months traveling around the East Coast of the USA and as much of Europe as I can. I've met quiet a few of the regulars here online already but as a long time lurker I'd like to say that this is by far the best online GTA community there is. It always kept things well organised in the lead up to GTAV and it's always been the by far the most entertaining.

You can sell one car per in-game day (48min).
