Situated in DK, our server experience a disconnect at 18.00 CEST.
Not just me, the picture from LFSWorld shows. Any idea ?

I´d be interested to see some stats about sold S2 licences in a few month if the devs would restrict the overall demo hosts to 5 only - instead of the actual number of 200.
Sayed that, I have no problem with long-terms or any demo racer arround and believe as well in the motto "Never change a winning team".

Quote from giorgobiani554 :no, no I never use mods, I prefer original. I play on my local server with LFS keygen so I make skins for my cars. Today installed Win Vista x64 and I get this error btw I don't get error on demo cars: XRG,XFG,FBM . Just make skins and then publish.

"In addition to his 15 month prison term, the Judge also ordered Mr. M******* to serve three years of supervised release and inform the public of the perils of criminal copyright infringement as part of 50 hours of community service."

Better hide a couple of month from now..

Looking at the GTR waiting list we think it´s not ok that TDRT takes 25% of the available seats in the GTR class.
We are willing to team up and start with 2 GTR cars only like most other teams. You just tell us your point of view on this matter, admins.

Here you see two reasons why the number is low.

Quote from JayEyeBee :As a member of one of the weaker teams in the series, I liked the rule . Our tires hardly ever got cold because we were racing around catching the queue.

You might be running on 24th and still get punished by this rule if your car isn´t on the right spot at the right time - but 25th to 32th are in between leader and last car on leading lap.
Looks like you have been on the right spot at the right time so far.
Weaker team or not isn´t a valid point either actually. Check the rule once more. It´s about if your car at the moment you see the yellow flag message,that´s the point of reference I asume, is situated in between the race leader and the last car on the leading lap only.
And this is a 50/50 chance (not sure about the % rate actually).

Quote from PMD9409 :Example:
Your racing at FE3, 1:16 second laptimes. You are 45 seconds behind the leader and are coming to the final stint where you are putting in your best driver (position in this doesn't matter). You pit with 1h 7m left because your best driver is better on tires.
As you pit you lose 35 seconds and come out of the pits 5 seconds behind the leader, at that very moment an SC comes out. You are not caught a lap down, no wave around. Tough luck? Same tough luck if you get beat by a team that was waved around tbh.

That would be a bad outcome for you - caused by having a SC in a race.
But what if 3rd to 10th place would be in between you and the leader? Cars almost a lap down before would then again fight you for 2nd.
That´s SC plus this rule = even worse for you and not really the "same tough luck".
And finally: Also a car having had a timeout can become a victim of this rule as it´s only about where you car is situated at a certain point of time because it´s not just like that all lapped cars will get waved arround automatically.

I think I made my point and hope that existing as well as future league admins might fall over this thread some time.

Talked briefly with an GTAL league admin about this rule months ago and it still catches my attention. I need to comment it, like I did after IGTC round 1 (with the result that there is no more wave arround rule in IGTC).

GTAL has had very good admining all season, no doubts about it.

But here IMO one of the worse racing rules ever invented - even somehow practised IRL as well, I can read:

"During a Safety Car period, all lapped cars between the race leader and the last car on the lead lap at the time of the Safety Car will be waved around to put all lead lap cars at time of deployment in line."

See attached file as an example - a safety car period has just started, race leader is picked up by the safety car:

- 3rd and 5th will get waved arround now as the only cars.
- 1st and 2nd before about a lap ahead of 3rd will now find themselves under pressure once more.
- 3rd will be just behind 2nd on the safety car restart.
- 4th before only a few seconds away from the podium (3rd) will now be a lap down to 3rd.
- 5th before almost a lap down on 4th, will now be just behind 4th on the safety car restart.

This rule has too much impact on any race IMO, maybe with the exception of a 10000 laps oval race with 45 secs. average laptimes. Please consider some rule change.

Quote from Inouva :Yeah, mouse drivers and keyboar drivers should be banned to, only wheel in lfs and the 60% of users dont gona play lfs anymore

See the smiley? It´s a sarcastic statement.

Quote from bavorak :I believe the wheel is the best controler in lfs and I use it but I bet there are mouse drivers and maybe also ks drivers who would kick your ass very hard in the race...

She races with mouse as far as I know.
