This is a really cool feature.
FYI Dawes is from Canada and Catalan is from Spain.
The rest of us are Yanquis as marked.
Nice job.

i hope i am allowed to post my first impressions in here!

1) sorry for my "WTF" message. i dont know what this guy thought when he crashed full speed into me. (no hard feelings tho)
2) sorry waltz for my little touch. tried everything not to hit you

Now i want to thank you, the MoE-organizers, for this great opportunity to participate in such an event. Especially because i am fully aware of us being still noobs in this game. Which is good for you, we will do our best not to stand in the way and ruining anybodies race.
I am still hoping getting an award for fairest team (just kiddin')

I wish everybody good luck most sincerely, have fun and again thx for the responsables of "MoE"

Just another question.

Why did the ghostaholic racing team a drive through penalty 1 minute ago?? P. van Diffelen (the driver) has no clue what he might have done wrong, he was in the middle of the track all alone.

It was your "wtf" that caused the penalty. Only I couldnt give it earlier, because I was driving myself.

My own race went quite well, didn't put in the best times, but pretty consistant. Had to let Vince go when he closed up because I was in bad-tire-temps-state, but other than that it was fine.

The lappers all behaved very intelligent and smart, thx for that.

ok,
BUT: i didnt have the time to call the admins with a sentence like "a guy crashed into me and i want you to review what happened cos i think it was a quite rude maneuver of the other guy". i am sorry if my saying didnt show good manners (even tho i think its not rude enough to cause a penalty) but it wasnt meant to be a "senseless" message. You know, racing and talking/writing doesnt fit quite well and i read in the forum that messages are allowed to call the admins.
Really, i am not mad or something, no big deal, but i dont feel comfy with this decision. i am still convinced i did nothing wrong. there are worse things going on that are not penalized.


Edit:
Well sometimes i seem to have problems reading & UNDERSTANDING things. Perhaps you can help me. I thought i could type a message in case i want you to watch what happened. My bad. Now i read it again but i still do not understand the "form" thingie we have to fill out. And to be honest, i couldnt remember who it was and when it was after my stint.

Sry again mates for my stupidity...

deleted my message since right now there is a nice sticky about appeals


Thanks all, this is a great race, we are having a blast on the track with all of you.

Well, the Live Ticker "missed" our driver swap. So in every new lap we are shown to be one more lap behind.

Edit:
Now it works.

yes, there are some problems, but nevertheless i think its a great tool.

Give it some time, it needs a few refreshes


We had the same problem, but all of a sudden it will just get right again

at least now i learned what "appeals" means.
I am against deleting posts even if i would badly like to in this case so consider my second last post as "inane". (yeah i looked it up...)

a little question :
If we are disconected, we will lost 2 lap? (and in the tracker too) or not?

You will see it in the tracker, but not yet.. I wll program that when Im back from my second stint, which starts about now

we lost 2 laps when we are disco? arf that's not good


PS: if you program the traker, can you take a little belgian flag for me (P.Closset) and Kid (A.Rebts) in the shock.fx team? thanks

The standings at the moment are not correct. This is because one or two drivers are driving for two different teams, and the tracker cant handle that. When the stints of these drivers are finished, I will change the entries manually so the stats are normal again.

Current standings are:

Pedal to the Metal
Ocrana XRR
teamnic
triso
ocrana FXR
nfaculty
shock.fx
twister
FDB racing
ghostaholics racing
mercury
dE racing
masterblaster

We (Twister Racing) had a restart, we didn't take care of the fuel . So we lost 2 laps.

I 'think' it should be all fine now, except for the penalty laps.

Why we have "+ 2" in the tracker? :s We have just 2 disco :s

Oh, didnt put the other one yet... all done manually...

Taking a two laps penalty for a disconnection seems really hard to me... We have been disco two times and the last thing we need to have is 4 more laps down really



Please check that we effectively weren't traped somewhere in the sand and disconected manually not to get that two laps penalty, or our race is already dead :s

I agree, it would be more logical to remove only the lap of the disconnect.
But this is just my opinion ...

Quote from Kid_Paddle :

This lap is obviously already removed as you didn't complete it

We'll discuss this before we finalize the results.

Would be nice

If you really want to avoid the trick to disconnect and avoid a penalty when traped somewhere, and if you want to avoid to check the replay again and again to check it, I suggest that no penalty at all for disconnection during the race, but after the race it would be up to the team to find the disconection in the replay and mail it to admins for exemple. If they don't, then 2 laps down

At least it would keep the race more interesting after a disconnection
