Welcome to Spark Realm

Welcome to Spark Realm! This is a community-created Spark website designed with one thing in mind: Giving you everything you need to better enjoy the game of Spark. Feel free to peruse Spark Realm to your heart's content, or at least until you find whatever it is that you're looking for.

Spark Racing League

Spark Realm is proud to introduce its first league: Spark Racing League!

Spark Racing League is a no-holds-barred, every-man-for-himself league in which only the speed of your tank and the dexterity of your fingers can get you to victory! You'll need to push your tank's maneuverability to the maximum, dodging traps, avoiding pitfalls, and finding the quickest routes to the finish line in order to best the competition and claim the trophy cup of victory!

Anyone can join and do well, because there is virtually no 'skill' required (in the way Spark skill is normally measured). Spark Racing League is almost entirely devoid of flag-capturing, switch-flipping, and fragging of any kind! Feel free to sign up on Spark Racing League's website and reserve your spot in the party! Because that's what it'll be!

Spark Radio

Once in a great while, something takes place that invokes speechlessness in every witness present. These events are few and far between, and in all truth, are sometimes even greater than they were first believed to be. Verily, this is one of those events.

The birth of Spark Radio is nigh!

Created by chrOnicstideGak and PitchblackItai, Spark Radio will follow in the same footsteps as LyriCal's ARC Radio did, so many years ago. There will be constant streaming radio, playing all of your favorite genres of music, an all-request hour, top request nights, user-submitted broadcast programs, Spark league newscasting, live Spark-related interviews, Spark-related advertisements, and last but not least, community rap battles!

The Spark Radio homepage will soon be complete, so keep checking back here for news and updates, including information on Spark Radio's Premiere Broadcast date! Prepare for the dawn of a new era of Spark!

New Spark Headquarters and Lobby

The new Spark Headquarters and Spark Lobby are finally here! After months of waiting, and empty promise after empty promise, the new Spark Headquarters and Spark Lobby are finally a reality! Many thanks to CrazyMofo, Gamer, Halow, Validir, Odoacer, and everyone else who worked very hard to make this happen!

Some of the bug fixes and updates include the ever-annoying grenade glitch being fixed, the addition of a patch manager integrated into the Spark lobby, a mute function, an in-game ignore function, and private message reply option (/r), private message notification when Spark is minimized to your system tray (in Windows), and of course, a brand new look for Spark Headquarters and the Spark lobby.

Now that the Spark Headquarters forums are back up, the Spark Forums that we've been running for the past couple months will transition back to just being the forums for the Spark Network, and will be re-themed to reflect this fact. There will be no downtime during this change, it'll just look different one day and you'll never be the wiser, unless you've been looking for it :)

Spark Forum

After a few weeks, Spark Network is proud to formally introduce Spark Forum as its newest addition to the Network! The Spark Forum was originally conceived the day that Codemallet announced its discontinuation of Spark development, and took down Spark Headquarters and the Spark servers without warning. A few guys (including myself) on Spark got together one night, and decided that if there wasn't any place for us to meet and forum it up, then we'd make our own! And just a few weeks later, Spark Forum is thriving with new traffic, hosting great new contests, and much more, like providing a home forum for Spark Realm, S.W.A.T., Spark Faces, SparkCast! So drop by the new Spark Forum and show some love! We guarantee you'll find something that interests you!

Also, FingerS and BraVeHearT have started hosting a US | New Jersey server for us all to enjoy! If you see them in the lobby, thank them for their time and money spent getting that online!
