Yeah, with how messed up the current PTB system is, I'm fine settling for silver.

Up until this point in the season, I have around 250 more leading hours compared to Argammon, excluding the carryover. With the carryover system Argammon is tied with me in PTB despite doing less.

I will exploit this system next season if it stays.

Duplode got what I meant. To better clarify, repeating my example where

* Driver A gets 263 leading hours on race 1 and 400 hours on race 2
* Driver B gets 265 leading hours on race 1 and 400 hours on race 2

The results would be

* Driver A gets 0.5 points on race 1, carries over 131 hours and gets 2 points on race 2 (total 2.5)
* Driver B gets 1 point on race 1, carries over no hours and gets 1 point on race 2 (total 2)

So, driver B would be punished for doing too well on race 1. To avoid this situation, top drivers who are having a bad month might be tempted to artificially stay under the 1-point threshold, giving up half a point but gaining useful carryover that can be used in the next race to hopefully reach the 2-point threshold. Is this a too artificial situation? Maybe, my analysis is just based on abstract game theory while you have decades of concrete experience in this tournament.

I support HerrNove's proposal to remove carryover.

Very nice! Are you planning to have option to add/remove cars from the chart? Also would it be possible to add a subtle horizontal+vertical line inside the chart that intersect mouse pointer?

I'm happy with the rules as it is! As for the cars my personal wish is that Mercedes stays, because I enjoy driving it the most

@Matei, are you planning to join the competition next year? I haven't seen you on the scoreboard yet so I'm curious why you are posting here. Hope I get a chance to race against you!

LOL Alain must be trolling at this point

Thanks for keeping the site up to date! I'm looking forward for future updates.

In the meanwhile, I'll add an alert if someone accesses a hidden replay, and see what happens.

This is a simple and good solution for me at least. Thanks!

Thanks for the well-formulated answer. I might have watched too many Karl Jobst youtube videos about cheating in gaming so I start to see it everywhere But one thing that would ease my mind even if this community is very tight and friendly, is to have some sorts of admin functions to see logs of actions. For example replay data handling (removing, timestamp of who downloaded it etc.) and forum browsing history. Maybe there is already idk.

Indeed something fishy about that .exe Eric Barros compiled: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/02dc0dcfc8f4894d7e1864e78a35783c1291724e4f133ef8b32643c5d8681a76/detection

That's a good way to show the differences between the paths. Very interesting!
The software itself is really nice. I tried and tested it today, actually

Yeah, well I have looked in the Driving School already... its just that I have to practise and get into the game again that I was once awhile...

I used to drive only with the indy, hard to play with other cars in competition =)

Sry for bad english.

Woho, uploaded first replay today =) Wish me gl in the future guys (and girls?) =)

I've searched on the net about how to play stunts on Linux but I dont find anything... Maybe someone here can help me? (Im running Mandrake 10.0)

Thanx al il professore, I think I have to practise ALOT until I reach nowadays pro stunts-pipsqueaks...  :lol:

And yes Krys TOFF, I will send a replay as soon I get some stuff to work @ my comp. This month and in July Im going to be pretty busy with things (moving out from parents, making a community homepage etc) so the stunts gaming have to wait a bit  :?  :wink:

Yeah I remember when I played the Kalpen Championship (imo best stunts competition @ that time), and tried to get to no.1 everytime   The best map I played there was the default track, the ultimate stunts track =)

For now I dont have time for some team joining, maybe later CTG   but thanx for offering.
