You have work on 15th?!

The other option could be a Saturday but most have work on Saturdays so that's why we chose 15th.
 
No BFBC2 Tournament? :(

I dont own this game (Most Wanted) otherwise i would have participated in the Tournament...

Alright, I understand. Best of luck to the rest of you guys!
 
will it affect if i dont have version 1.3 and have some other version

havent played most wanted since long time
 
Why are the Porsche GT and BMW M3 not allowed? What about that maxed out Corvette in the BE cars list?

Isn't performance matching on anyways?
 
Hamachi account is same as logmein account, right?

So basically hamachi connects to the internet but makes the game think you are connecting over LAN?
 
In the spreadsheet, Hamachi ID is the client id you give in when you start Hamachi, right? It needn't necessarily be unique, right?

Also, I added LogMeIn account to Hamachi and it says pending. What to do?
 
Hamachi ID = the name that will show up when you will connect to a network

Turn on hamachi--> Go to System--> Preferences --> Under client, the name is your ID

Got it. But the logmein id still shows pending. How long will it take?
