Nah, I overreacted. It was just a racing incident, nothing too rough or unfair. You did well.

About teams btw: I believe top 3/4 every race should count towards the teams title. Of course, teams can be bigger or smaller than this number, but either way it is a disadvantage in points, or a disadvantage as some players aren't getting points for the team hardly

Just have a max team size of 4 or 5 instead of having to manufacture each outcome everytime.

K.I.S.

Btw, if you don't have all the tracks yet for this year, here's some things I would love to see:

Street Race
Night Race
Somewhere near the sea, like a sort of Monaco type thing?

Just saying

This evening I connected to F1 server and I found it in manual.

Don't complain if people don't play f1!

Shit can happens, but I know that a couple of admins (actually one of them disappeared) love so much to put it in manual and play like they were on their own server.

Please don't do it! Or, at least, don't do it all the time!

Why do you think manual is better than auto?
If you let it in auto and /continue to reduce dead times, ok. Some people could appreciate.
But if you put manual just to chat as long as you want... some people could be annoyed and then... if you forget it in manual...

Yes, I only ever put it in manual if someone wants to skip a race, and then straight back to auto, others should do same I guess.

Why doesn't the F1 server have fuel stops anymore? Also the tires and damage? It would be way better if the server would be more similar to the sunday race imo, at least people (me) could get used to the tyres

lux2 · Post by **lux2** » Thu Nov 17, 2011 11:29 pm

Fuel Off was a test due to arjen's request.
I don't know which is the test result.
IMO nothing has changed about server popularity.

About Tyres/damage On i'm not sure that could be a good idea to uxse it in races with only few laps. Anyway, it could be another "test"

kikiriki · Post by **kikiriki** » Thu Nov 17, 2011 11:33 pm

Hmmm, didn't think of that, maybe with a bit more laps then

Why do you need to put manual to skip a race?

And, yeah... you are one of the two

(jurgen is the other one)

To avoid the f*** wait, check logs I always will put it back

lux2 · Post by **lux2** » Fri Nov 18, 2011 12:19 am

I have no access to log files. I believe you but... Isn't enough to type /continue?

... and nobody complain about that, it definitely means that nobody is interested in F1 races during the week.

I hope it was not in manual from wednesday

I watched video from last race.

Nice stuff

And you managed to pronounce my nick like it is pronouncing

lux2 · Post by **lux2** » Sun Nov 20, 2011 9:49 pm

Wet race + the advantage to know the track... first time without beeing lapped!

It was quite incredible to stay behind tijny for some laps.

For those who don't like "rain", don't worry, I did not do any other wet track.

Sorry to Jan, Hevonen (and almost Kyna) for missing the pro race. I feel partially quilty for it as I was the one calling WARMUP before prequali as I honestly thought it was going to be just that. I didn't even try to get a good lap there (not that I belonged to the pro anyway). Next time I'll know. And will also correct anyone who makes the same mistake.

Woha! Finally a race

Pre-Qualifying
I seemed quite fast, after setting my 47.8 lap, I started looking at other server for laptimes

Warmup
I don't remember why, but I needed to check the other server again, so I had to let everybody pass.. It was fun overtaking people later on!

Qualifying
I put 50% startfuel in order to drive 8 laps (with rain, the more I drive the faster I get!). When I set the record at 6th lap, I decided it was fair to stop: pole was quite safe and fuel was good for two pits!

Race
I knew that sooner or later I could've disconnected again, so my only goal was to drive quick and constant, lap as many players as possible so that, after disconnection, I could've been ahead of them anyway!
My start was bad as always, so I had to defend my position by Pablinho's attacks. Unluckily when I finally made a small gap between us, I ran wide on a curve and I lost the lead. No matter, I catched him, he ran wide and then byebye!
My first pit was perfect, but I didn't really notice the wall! I lost a couple of seconds there, so when I came back on track I had two cars ahead (Mike Nike and Pablinho probably). I made a tight attack on Mike Nike right after the main straight and then I got no real battles anymore.
Surprisingly I didn't disconnect, so a victory it is!

P.S. BEST 3 PLAYERS FOR EACH TEAM ARE COUNTED FOR TEAM STANDINGS

No problems. I probably should've read the first post of this thread a bit more carefully before my first race in the league. I thought there was warm-up before pre-qualifying just because I supposed so. So even without you shouting "WARMUP" I would've made the same mistake.

Well at least now I know how the things work.

The race itself was a positive surprise for me as I think I didn't lose my lead after the 1st lap. Next race I hope to make it in the pro race but that requires me to find the little wanker inside me and succeed to do a decent lap for a change.

I tried to upload the tracks but I received a php warning about zip and jpg files that could not be copied.
