Could some admin either remove or PM me the pass to the server?

Sorry, couldn't make it.

Dunno whether that was caused by Scawen's new stuff or 500 servers, but we can only apologize for the fact that we didn't get to even half way through there.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Server crash?

yes. during gridding it happened a couple of times that people lost connection, so we decided to end the race. also it was reported that other server related services were having troubles.

We're discussing to reschedule the race. We update you once we made a decision.

Are you guys already considering resuming the race on weekends or are you going to create a poll for public opinion?

There will be NO RESCHEDULING OF THIS ROUND.

Results will be taken from a back-count.

75% completion rule will be enforced as 75% of the leader's laps credited.

Half-points will be awarded.


Even though the tracker is run for these events (it wasn't this round because I wasn't there to keep it running as best as possible), for events like LFSCART, it won't mean you can rejoin from a timeout, as you would have to have a second screen or windowed mode to see where you are - without a team manager or an insim display to show you your true position and blue flags, there's no real safe way without creating more protests etc. The tracker is just run to get a better results page up, quicker.

Further details about chat penalites (Rules explicity say no chat during a red flag until an appropriate time (ie when CSF opened chat).

I think this is the right choice.

Are the penalties for this round divided by 2 because of it being half points?

No. The bonus and penalty points will be full; only position points will be halved.
