When the system goes live be sure to check out the $credits command, i'm far from the only person involved. At some points yesterday we had 6 people working on the system and helping to move it forward. Yes i'm responsible for the vast bulk of the system, but I cant and dont do it alone.
EDIT: My PC is called GX. I called it that because I work for an Apple based company who at the time had G5's - I called my PC GX as in G10 - because I figured it would take Apple 5 more generations to catch up .
The thing that seperated the STCC servers and the thing that we hope seperates the CTRA servers when they arrive is our back end administration system, whilst we cant guarantee clean racing, we do our best to keep detailed notes of drivers who frequently are not clean and educate them, and failing that boot them.
Yes when you simplify it yellow and red cars is exactly what we do - but doing this effectively and fairly is not a case of adminning from the drivers seat, we had a good system before that worked reasonably well - now we want a better system. Like all aspects of the new CTRA servers, it'll be bigger and better and simple & easy to use.
We're different from most servers because we put a lot of effort into trying to encourage clean racing rather than hoping for it and typing in /ban when we've been taken out ourselves.
The reporting system was finished yesterday . Today I am going to see some kittens and later i'm going back to hospital but if all goes well I hope to get a few things done on the core system tonight, followed by which the next big project is this events thing we've not said much about.
It's news to me too, I do live in the Fens though, but I live in Cambs. Thankfully i'm not a yokel, being of Hertfordshire origin and Welsh-Irish descent. Basically, i'm "British" rather than English, and definitely not a particularly slow talking tractor driving sect of the English, like Tristan and Jack.
Look, you left a blank page up with the text "UKCT Ownzorz", if anyone is in the dog house, it's youzorz! I had to do something so that people didn't mistake all this work for a, and I quote, "carear mode", Mr Hopkinson.
