Le Stunts, nothing for cowards

[Duplode]

DNFs aside, the racing was really cool! We should hold another one soon (for one, I want a high score to show...  )

[CTG]

I think we should modify the rules to avoid such DNFs. What about 1 minute tolerance limit, with +0.5 seconds penalty time after every late seconds? That would mean +11.0 for me (so it's not worth to extend the gameplay).

22:30:55 - saved the replay
22:31:01 - posted "done" at the chatroom
22:31:10 - first try to post the replay, message came back with the warning: somebody else posted while I was writing a message
22:31:15 - second try to post the replay, empty message warning (fuckya')
22:31:22 - third try

Btw it's interesting to see the different strategy and stamina. I spent too much time with RH at the beginning, running out of ballast time quite fast (losing control & bad nerves, my last lap tells everything about how "stable" I am mentally). BJ managed the time quota a lot better (using only 11:06!), showing up slightly improving lap results.

When? Next weekend? Or earlier?

[Duplode]

When? Next weekend? Or earlier?

Next weekend would be awesome (earlier than that I won't be home before 23:00 GMT).

[Chulk]

During the week it is too complicated for me too... next weekend would be great

[zaqrack]

I would like to join once too, options:

A. SA morning, EU lunchtime, China evening
B. between dec8-jan10 when I will be in Budapest.

Just go on with the next race this weekend, don't mess up the schedule for me.

Option A looks simple to arrange if you think of it as "just before (or just after) the F1 qualifying/race" 

I think we should modify the rules to avoid such DNFs. What about 1 minute tolerance limit, with +0.5 seconds penalty time after every late seconds? That would mean +11.0 for me (so it's not worth to extend the gameplay).

Not a bad idea. I would make it harsher, though (e.g. reset the penalty time and subtract a whole lap every 20s).

22:31:10 - first try to post the replay, message came back with the warning: somebody else posted while I was writing a message
22:31:15 - second try to post the replay, empty message warning (fuckya')

We might disable the "somebody else posted" warnings in our accounts (Profile >> Modify Profile >> Look and Layout). Another possible workaround could be attaching the replay to an existing post by editing it, though it would be messy. (One problem might be the grace period - those five minutes or so after posting in which you can edit the post without the "Last Edit" timestamp being appended. Any sneakiness seems impossible if the original post is made before the start of the race.)

Next F1 race is in 10 days (India) and after the race it would be 10am here. I can be up at 10 or 11 in the morning on weekends (probably performing poorly, but I can wake up at that time). I have no problem racing after midnight (let's say 4am here) on a weekend but maybe that would be too early in Europe.

[BonzaiJoe]

As long as we arrange it a bit in advance, I'm okay with most hours of the weekend. If we're racing in the European morning, I won't join if I've been out late the day before. Otherwise morning is also fine. Getting up early might even be quite interesting.

[CTG]

Getting up early might even be quite interesting.

Not for me. (If the dickhole neighbourhood "allows" it then) I usually wake up around 11-12 o'clock on Sundays.

[Chulk]

Ok, so the best would be around 10/11 SA, 14/15 EU, 21/22 CH, right?

[zaqrack]

Not for me. (If the dickhole neighbourhood "allows" it then) I usually wake up around 11-12 o'clock on Sundays.

Never slept longer than 7:30am in the past 2 years.

Reason 1: even during winter its already bright before 7am
Reason 2: at least one of my sons usually wakes us around 6:30am

On the other hand, even on weekdays I just simply wake around 7:00

[Chulk]

On weekends, I usually wake up at 13 to have lunch (unless I have some appointment or sports event to watch) but I can make an effort and be ready to race at 10/11

[Friker]

So if I understood corectly. We are racing 12 (??) minutes from a release of a track. Then, we send replay. Laps driven until 8:00 are counted (we are driving through pit line, not the finish line). Next race is at Saturday. (?) Pick something slower than Jaguar for this week, pls.
