The online racing simulator

Poll : DQed should be?

Stick to the old rule: DNF

Allow rejoin

Quote from Fischfix :if you have a bad connection, FIX IT. if you cannot provide a stable connection for the race, YOUR PROBLEM. as long as the server is not responsible for any time-outs i do not see any point in leting people rejoin and even add up their laps.

What if you can't fix it, or change it like me? And you feel terrible about it...

Quote from Fischfix :look at MoE, every timeout they had (and in a 24h race there certainly are a lot of them) will bring a 2 lapspenalty to the team. as the storm cup races are not that long i just stick to my opinion:

if someone is timing out, its his fault and a rejoin will reset his lap count to 0.

It's stupid to let him back and not count laps back... and in MoE 24h ppl got penalty cos of cheating the rules, not because of disconnects.
I know I'm not technically on board with this one, but it makes no sense to fake some laps to make them catch up. If your connection goes it should be a mechanical failure and you DNF.

If your connection is bad enough that you can't stay connected for the duration of a race, you shouldn't be joining an online tournament.
Give me a brake, who are you to tell me not to join "online tournament"
Niki, it is rather unfortunate that your connection is not stable... I have seen you timing out a lot in the past... not just in StormCup... But I STRONGLY believe that people who disconnect/time out should NOT be allowed to rejoin... even those with poor connections

As many have pointed out, there are many things that someone can do to cheat this "system". We are competing in a league and don't need this kind of nonsense .

Constant disconnection and reconnections will definitely start lagging other people.

It's decided that a disconnection will mean a DNF

I can see that there is 6 + 9 votes to rejoin = 15. And only 11 for DNF............
