I can't get into www.lfs-league.net . Could you please advise details about pool 6 - time of race and password?

Ours is www.lfs-league.com..

Quote from bozo :

Looking at LFSWorld, it looks like the OLFSL servers are rather quiet, so I am guessing there is a general problem here?

We have a break atm, all servers should be working fine.

Quote from Anman :

Pool 7 pw doesnt work.

maybe it's not open yet.. try again soon

If I only knew.. this day has been one of the worst ever.

I am forced to publish these here, but only the racers who are racing in the pool in question are allowed to enter the server.

Pool 5: veyron /The Original LFS League (3) /19:00 GMT
Pool 6: lacetti /The Original LFS League (4) /19:30 GMT
Pool 7: modena /NASSA by 500servers /19:00 GMT
Pool 8: maranello /The Original LFS League (x) /19:00 GMT
Pool 9: mustang /The Original LFS League (3) /20:30 GMT

Quote from KSheppard :

crash?...what server....I cant get into 8 with the pw and the site seems to be down

The site died yes, but 8 is not open yet. I'm hosting it.. I have to put the passwords here first.

Like Solar said, the Staff will decide what to do. We can't race pool 3 again today anyway so it's not like we have to make a decision now. We'll talk about it after the races, and we'll let you know soon.

Quote from Busta :

Im one of those Me and shark are in that team. We were in pool 1 on BL1

So contact FienDi
We haven't checked that list since it was created, members ask us to add their team.

Quote from Busta :

I cannot see the magic turtles team in the team standing. Why?

Because it's a new team or it wasn't listed when we checked LFS World. Or we just didn't have anyone from that team in OLFSL. One of the team members should contact FienDi.

Quote from MacEST :

But yeah, it's easy to criticise afterwards, when things are already done. Maybe next time, the staff could do some more thinking about choosing classes or to use them at all. Just a friendly suggestion for the people in charge, but as for everthing else, the staff is doing a great job.

There is another thread for this, Track & car suggestions. You might want to put it there because that's the thread we'll be reading the next time we have to make a new Race Calendar.

Thought so... FienDi won't send it, the site will. When your login fails, you should see "Login failed. Forgot login-id?" right below the login boxes. Click the forgot login-id -link and the site will send you a new password. It will ask you to give your email address but it will then check if it's in our database. If it's not, the site won't send you the password so make sure it's the email address you have given us.

Quote from Cawwa :

Mail to FienDi sent

About what?

Quote from jmracing1 :

Yeah, i agree with zeug. More RallyX to the people! Why should rallyx be ignored? Its a part of LFS aswell. Or isnt OLFSL "the league for everyone", including different specialitys like rallycross? Ive arranged RallyX Championships for 3 seasons and its great fun. Thats my opinon..

Just so this is clear.. OLFSL has included RallyX several times, but this season is different. Next season will be different than this current one. We try to use a large variety of track and car combos, this time RallyX was not included because it was in our Race Calendar last season.

It doesn't have to be on the calendar every time, does it.. Would make it boring if we used the same tracks every time.

Quote from anttt69 :

not really a problem, but I have two positions/slots on the hotlap page

thanks

Ant [uk]

Oh now you too? We are aware of this problem, although we have no idea what's causing it.. Ignore it, we'll take care of it after the hotlap deadline (or earlier).

Quote from kx_mole :

I can not log in. It says wrong password.(but I am sure I use the correct pw) The other problem, that I can't see the replays, stats files. (I would like to check my great 20 secs race... )

hmm: now the "(111) Connection refused" is the error message for the whole site...

Does that to me too. Won't let me log in or get a new password (mine is correct as well), some parts of the site seem to be empty and some say forbidden access. The parts I see are not like they're supposed to, even the font is different!

I called FienDi, but he's at work for another 2 hours so hopefully it won't get worse during that time.. He said that he has a feeling it's something we can't do anything about, so it would be our webhotel then..

EDIT: also about 2 minutes later It's almost ok atm..

Anyone else having problems with it??

Quote from AtomAnt :

And as long as it's not a slower time in the same car.

I believe now is a good time to tell you all that the site is intelligent enough to notice when you upload a slower hotlap.. It will send email about it to me and FienDi and then you will have to explain it to me

This feature is there to prevent sandbagging. We also get informed about new members, subscribers, unsubscibers, hotlap deleting and team changes.

Remember this: if you unsubscribe yourself from the season, the site will erase ALL your points and it's like you were never there. The only way to get those points back is to email FienDi and ask him to restore your points. So if you're a very competitive person and tend to get angry if the race isn't going like you planned.. keep in mind that you have to explain why you unsubscibed because restoring your points is not a small task.

Quote from Renku :

Can I change the car DURING hotlapping/qualifying?

If you uploaded a hotlap that's been driven with RB4 for example, and it's still there when the hotlap uploading closes, that's your car in the race. Before the hotlap deadline you can change the car as many times as you like.

Be patient, it will be published when the decision has been made.

Quote from GianniC :

First I get the points and then I get them not ?



You gave them first in the table and I mean... Or you give them and keep them or you don't give them at all !! Now I'd like to have 23.0 points I earn please.

Like I told you before, reset means DSQ.
You had the points for a while, because you managed to check the results when FienDi was still in the middle of creating them. DSQ points: 0

Stats provide exactly this, so FienDi said he won't put it there twice.

Quote from anttt69 :

will Solar take my post as an official complaint?

No, but you can email it to him

Quote from Tez4 :

Sorry about all this mess guys, I definitely did not want any trouble. I have no problem with it if they take my points away, I just would like to have a chance to race in the next event. Sorry for my irresponsibilty, I have learned from my mistake.

Tez

We're not kicking you out, so you will be allowed to participate in the future, but the fact that a complaint was registered against you (blue flag rule) will most likely mean a penalty of some kind. Will it be DSQ, a time penalty or something else, that I don't know. That is up to Solar Hydro.

What I do know is that it will be mentioned in the OLFSL rules somehow before the next event.

Quote from russraine :

Obviously the other staff may have other views so will advise them of your thread and see what they think.

Thanks. The complaint obviously changes things! We have to think about this.

Quote from russraine :

However I think anyone who needed to have a sub driver should have this verified by the OLFSL staff first, especially if the reserve driver is either a new member or significantly slower or faster than you are.

All staff can be contacted by email from the OLFSL site, I think your first port of call should be Mrs FienDi then whoever is designated to host your race (which will be on the grid page on Saturday).

I agree with this part.

So who exactly was driving the car last night?

Quote from Linsen :

I wasn't quite sure about the amount of overlap, though, but knowing he was one lap behind me already, I assumed, he would, in case, obey the blue flags and back off slightly to let me take the racing line. What a misapprehension!

I seriously think you should file a complaint!

Quote from AtomAnt :

I'd like to complain about getting older and grayer, can I lodge an appeal?
