Team standings are now back - for good.
And fellow staff members, if you feel you see something provocative written in here, please don't fight fire with fire. Not so nice to wake up and read something like that.
Also I hate that comparison to card-games. It is really offending since we are trying to response to community feedback nonstop, not playing dirty or something like that which you in my eyes were suggesting.
Anyway, the standings are now back - with some tweaks. After doing some serious calculation I had to admit my mistake, it is better like this.
So if you wish to throw the rocks, you know the address

Was on my wishlist for this season too
There is no oblication to race every event - you can miss 2 (20% of season) events and still win the jackpot. I hate to tepeat myself, but the rules don't mention anything about obligatory participation.
And team standings will be re-opened once we make the decision...
As I am the one who made these changes, and brought it up with OLFSL staff I feel my reply should be registered here too.
Team standings were introduced as an extra feature during last season - merely for fun a lot like like national standings since we didn't then have that many teams and/or those we had didn't have large number of members. After that the way we count those points has been changed greatly many times, during season also - partly because we changed the individual pointing system too. Also, number of teams/team members has raised siqnificantly.
These facts and feedback from member(s) brough up the need to tweak the system we had when this season launched. Our meaning was not to punish teams with a lot of members, but as I wrote to the site - to give better picture of skill-level in team.
Anyway, as it's written above the matter will be discussed within OLFSL staff - and I will do some deeper research about using either members per event/per season to do the calculations. Meanwhile team standings will be closed.
And migf1, I'd appreciate if you could edit the first post so that it will not cause further misunderstandings about this "20% rule". Thank you.

Question might be simple, however there is no simple answer to this.
Though I must disagree with "almost every time"

It's quite likely it will not be up by 16:00GMT
Doing my best here, keep 
please

Quite strange chain of events tonight with the site - and it's likely that it was not the server that was acting up. Looks more like human action to me, I hope it's not - we don't need that kind of s**t.

I usually have loading times betweeb 0.5 and 2 secs. Are all the pages as slow as the main?
I can't answer to your question, not because I don't want to but because the points table you are referring to doesn't exist anymore - accidentally I was creating a new way to count and represent the team standings at the same time you posted here.
By the old way points were summed for whole season, now calculations take place event by event - which should be more accurate to view the real level of each team. As said in the site, the points you see in the table are the average points of racers per event. We could also do this with total points, but that would give an advantage to those teams with a lot of members. Also, you must have 2 or more racers to form a team - teams with only 1 (active/on season) member are not included to this table.
Lot's of work put to this, I hope it:
a) works
b) satisfy You
c) improves OLFSL
That's all, stay on the road people - and don't forget tuneups. You can't practice too much..

Haven't noticed this at all - working for you too now?
Sum of all team members per event, right?
It was there due to a site error, sorry 
Event2 - South City Town REV
We used to have this last season. Anything you want to discuss?
Personally, I'd like to say sorry to all who I bumped in first laps of my race. My PC tried to die and the fps went up and down during the episode (10-65fps). I guess windows had something very important to do, really don't know. Anyway, apologies

OLFSL rules update
For those who are lurking here in the forum and didn't yet see our site - OLFSL rules have been changed to make something good even better 
Go to the site and please, read the rules as a whole - you are expected to know them.

Thank you

I occasionally read the forum myself too
It was a remnant from the past, gone now. Thanks for pointing this out.
Okay, I think I got them all in now. Please go to Profile -page on the site and change your profile.
Thanks for your patience
Thanks for your patience
Yeah.. please bear with me. I've been quite busy lately, league stuff - and I do have a personal life too
Anyway, I've reserved this evening and night for OLFSL work, which includes some rules stuff (announced probably tomorrow), answering my mails on hold (your team addition request for example) and doing some coding.
However, I'm sorry for taking this long time to reply - There is now even less available (and capable in some matters too) hands in OLFSL staff.
Time to eat now, after that - work, work, work

Didn't even know we had one at the moment
Doesn't this quite diminish Rudi's point in the first post - I mean the idea was to drive together with one "friendly" racer (in same pool)? Or did you perhaps mean that those 4 racers would somehow be in the same pool?
To be honest ,like Neokiller, I don't get the idea behind this. I'm sure there is one so please explain
Just mail me your teamtag and the full name. You can find my address from the site on the 'Contact us' -page.
Or you can PM me too

Well, I think I finally figured it out. But don't expect the site to be working before tomorrow evening.
Thank you for your patience

Yes, no idea what's the problem. Contacted server administration, keep an eye in here to be informed...
