Alright, I'll leave you May. I can do the next one :)
I think I can do any of those dates, but say the 26th as preference number one

I'll say something controversial but I would be happy with a monthly live race. To say an example we could arrange it the morning before ZakStunts new track is released.

Waiting for the next live race until May and then August maybe is too much time. We don't need a great preparation or a theme in every live race (I love when they have a background story of course!) and we don't have to be a dozen pipsqueaks to have fun. We could let  the 4 races as main anual events and a monthly minor race for extra fun ;).

It would also be cool to have extra achievements besides being the fastest, like in the last race that we had a special prize for the pipsqueak with more jumps.

I can manage a monthly Sunday live race I think but if anybody wants to manage a race I'll happy to support. We only need ourselves because tracks and cars are plenty.

Can we do the next live race scheduled on Sunday May 19th? I would also like to apologize to @Cas, I ended up jumping ahead of him in organizing this event, he kindly agreed to organize it with me.

I think it's cool, I like live racing, I think it's fun and it increases participant interaction, I'd like to test live streaming, I should create a topic to explain the plan.

Might a reddit be a good place to advertize for your live event?

As we discussed, yes, the 19th is a good idea. And it gives us time to prepare tracks :)

Well, the 19th is approaching. I guess we need to discuss the times. It'll be hard to wake up on a Sunday morning here with this cold, but let's see what we can do :P  13:00 UTC would be ideal for me, but if too late for you guys, I guess I can do noon UTC?

I somewhat prefer 12:00 UTC, but can also do 13:00 UTC.

I can't, never in the afternoon.
Edison once said,
"I have not failed 10,000 times,
I've successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work."

I'll be away all weekend sadly, but will try a dummy run at a set time myself, as practice for when I can next participate!

Cas

We're still in time to move it to the following weekend if you guys think it's good. Also, about Daniël's afternoons, I can do it at other times and it may actually be more convenient for me, but this is the time I know that has worked before. Otherwise, I can....

1. In my afternoon, which would be Daniël's evening... for example, at 19:00 UTC
2. In the night if it's Friday or Saturday here. For example, 04:00 UTC Saturday is great for me. That'd be early morning for Daniël
3. Let's say option 3 is what we've been doing, that is, South American morning, like noon UTC

I'd like to know which options are OK for you guys and how many would be OK with pushing it to the following week so that Spoonboy can join.

Honestly, don't factor me in to the plan. With family around, I wouldn't usually know if I can participate until minutes before the race!
Let me practice with the format on my own schedule first :)
