24hr Radio Broadcast

---

It's finally become an annual thing, the 24hr Radio broadcast, being the 3rd anniversary this year. Of course, in the past two years I've had help from the other Radio DJs to fill in any gaps - thank you to everyone who's helped this happen - and this year's all the same. All DJs are welcome to join in on the 24hr Radio broadcast. We at [TC] Radio hope you stay entertained for the duration of the rally with the best hits, quizzes, competitions and games!

N.B You do not have to be signed up for Gumball 24hr or be logged into [TC] CityDriving One to take part in these competitions. Those on [TC] CityDriving Two/Three and the public may take part.


Competition Types

There are many different forms of Competitions and here are just some of those that you can look forward to.


General Knowledge Quiz
This is a firm favourite among Gumballers

Themes

There are many different types of questions I could give you, and here are some of the themes of questions you can expect:

• Motorsport
• Sports (of any kind)
• Countries Around The World
• General Car Knowledge
• Country Capitals
  

How to Play

• I will ask everyone a question on a specific theme through the radio
• I will repeat the question once more (a further two times if it is long)
• The 'Countdown Clock'* music will start**
• Once the music is finished, I will check the answers through the Chatlogs, specifically looking at who got the right answer first***
• The person who provided the correct answer first wins the prize money for that round
  

Usual Prize Pool (per round): €1000-€7500


Guess The Car Sound


How to Play

The clue is in the name:

• I will provide everyone with a different car sound through the radio
• Once the car sound if finished, depending on the duration of that sound (i.e. if it is too short, it will be played a 2nd time), the 'Countdown Clock'* music will start**
• Once the music is finished, I will check the answers through the Chatlogs, specifically looking at who got the right answer first***
• The person who provided the correct car name first wins the prize money for that round
  

Usual Prize Pool (per round): €1000-€5000

*The 'Countdown Clock' music indicates to competitors that they have 30 seconds to get their answers in via !request.
**You may NOT submit your answer before the 'Countdown Clock' music has started or your answer will not be taken.
***If no one answered correctly, no one gets prize money that round.


Hide & Seek


How to Play

• During a song, I will go and hide my car in a hard-to-find place
• I will then announce that "It's Hide & Seek time!"
• Once you hear this line, you (The Seekers) must go and find me as fast as possible
• The 'Countdown Clock' music will start if I have not been found within 1 minute
• The first person to lightly tap me will win the prize for that round
• If you full-on ram the Hider, you will not be eligible to win a prize
  

Usual Prize Pool (per round): €1000-€5000


Cash & Car Raffles
This special competition usually happens on The Opening Night and the final night of Gumball


How to Play

• I will announce that a Raffle will be held on a given radio show
• I will ask everyone to provide a number of their choice (between 1-100) through !request
• If your number is not between 1-100, you must choose another number or you will not be counted
• If your number is already taken, please pick another one through !request
• Later on in the show, I will use a Random Number Generator for numbers between 1-100 to randomly choose a winner
• The winner will receive whatever the prize is for said Raffle (InSim Cash or a New/Used car)
  

I am entitled to keep the tension and suspense high by bluffing the announcement of the winner and carrying on with the music.

Usual Prize Pool: €10,000-€50,000

AND/OR

One of the listed Cars (Used/New):

• UF1
• XFG
• XRG
• XRT
• FXO
• RB4
• LX4
• LX6
• MRT
• RAC
• FZ5
• UFR
• XFR
  

Requests

As well as the Top 100 Songs Chart, as usual, I will be taking any Song Requests (via !request) throughout the show. However, I will only take requests once the Top 100 Songs Chart has gotten to No. 1. I am sure you are all looking forward to hearing the No. 1 song so don't fret too much that you cannot request a song!

Song Requests Rules

The rules for Song Requests are the same as always and apply to all radio shows:

• No songs with excessive swearing or inappropriate subjects in them.
• Keep the Troll/Joke songs to a minimum, people want to listen to the best hits.
• Respect each other's taste in music. You do not need to like someone's request, but you equally do not need to tell them this or insult them because of the song they requested.
• Only request one song at a time. Once your request has finished playing, you may request another song.
• Do not use !request to talk to the DJ, please use !pm if you need to speak to them. You will be kicked from the server if you continue to do this.
  

I won't be back home from Uni until after the start of Gumball 24hr; however, if other DJs decide to start the show, which is what I hope to happen, be sure to tune in right from the off!

But if this doesn't happen, be sure to tune in to [TC] Radio for what will hopefully be a 3pm start going right through to the end of Gumball 24hr!

Sorry if this is not legitimately 24hrs, Uni can really get in the way of a lot of things.

Good luck to all Gumballers!

Fail - Look forward to the 21hr show

It seems like Connor is delayed. In the meantime, Renegade is running a radio in TeamSpeak (in the CityDriving One channel).

The Radio will be online in a few minutes. Be sure to tune in and thank you to all the DJs who filled in in my absence.

Well, sorry for dying in the last few hours. We hope you enjoyed our coverage of this year's Gumball 24hr and congratulations to all the winners of the quiz rounds and the raffle!

More Radio to come throughout the Christmas period, stay tuned!
