Well, some simple points:
We are currently checking the way to put up paypal.
4 quid are really expensive if you blew up your second quadcore over the weekend.
FCV is a decent point, to level out a field. AFAIK, it will be improved in upcoming patches.
We will probably postpone this UK event, as I am a bit disappointed on the reactions. Dunno why people start whining and all about prizes etc. Do you get any prizes in another LFS league? Any real prizes? Like a Wii or a travel or so? Remember, you can qualify through that to fight for those prizes.
Next point: It's a truly ambitious project, but without people driving it, there wont be advertisement, there wont be bigger prizes. So it's simple: Be in now, and you will have a better spot in upcoming seasons. And yes there will be.
Besides that, we will take into account, that you dont have enough time to practice etc. So the question here is: What would be a reasonable and good schedule for you guys?
Oh and again... 20 * 4... that'll be 80 pounds. Wow, a hell lot of money for the admins... It is to cover expenses and work.
About the "behind the scenes": I do think, the rules are clear, simple and providing good action, as the german and international streams prove. It is down to racing skillz, as we are strictly against penalty weights etc.
I still do wonder, where the list is, with the tons of things, that had to be put in place. It's all there: Go read rules, qualify, pay and you are in. Nothing more, nothing less. Maybe it's also my perception of things, as in germany it easily went that way. Maybe it's due to the fact, that we had ongoing LFS leagues here for quiet a while, but for that there is also the rules section about relegation etc.
The rest is WiP, as you play a WiP product every day, I personally thought, you have some open mind for stuff being ready but still in development. We are open to every kind of critics, advices and wishes. So OK, we will postpone it, there will be a news up pretty soon about that, and I encourage you, to help get this thing going, or shall all the prizes (again) only go to germany?
Some words on the page itself, maybe you just didnt want to take some deeper look, so here goes:
Webstreams of LIVE racing and later to be found on Media page.
Actual league system, with putting up the results and replays about 2-5 minutes after the race (will be instant in probably a week or two, including full stat system). Penalty system included, easy to handle for admins. Two backup systems for the results (last is adding them manually
).
News and racereports.
So, once again: Give us some feedback, we'll include whatever possible, and then we'll postpone that UK/IRE event.
