Chance I might not make qualifying as update is taking longer than expected, if this is the case will I be permitted to race in the bottom lobby?

by Ax4x Chaddy Tue 5 Jan 2016 - 19:50

if you miss qualifying yes, you'll be in the last lobby.

Please also fully read my original post, I've added a little more regarding signing in then missing quali.

Last night there were a fair few people trying to sign in after this had closed which is an annoyance to the hosts and everyone else who's racing as this holds everyone up who signed in on time.

From now on there will be no exceptions, if you can't sign in on time, you don't race. If someone else was supposed to sign you in but forgot, that's still not our fault.

This may sound harsh but think of it this way, if you turned up to an actual race track late, all cars are already setting up on the grid ready to run, do you think they'd let you race? Or do you think it would be fair to all those who did sign in and turn up on time to wait around for you?

You have a whole week to sign in which is way more than enough time to sign in.

If anyone thinks this is unfair or would like to amend anything please let me know before the 29th. Once the sign in's are open there will be no changes made to this process

The 29th? But its only the 5th.

I'd like to notify you that I think it's a bad idea or that if you intend on changing it you send out Pm's.

Really disapointed that our lobby host did not switch assists off so we have no way of knowing if the lap times are right or not.... Lobby host was informed

by DOVER78 Tue 5 Jan 2016 - 20:39

And surprise surprise the pole sitter was in our lobby... In an avensis lol

Rikki Coxons time has been listed wrong in live timing, he did a 1.02.6xx not a 1.02.8xx.

by Rikki Coxon Tue 5 Jan 2016 - 21:05

As Bear said, you've got my Tim wrong, I did a 1:02.6 but you've got me listed as a 1:02.8.

I finished in 3rd behind carscarscars and dizzy is it?

"Sign in's for Round 4 will open on the 29th Dec"

The 29th Dec was a week ago, we never changed the rules on when sign in would open and close, it's always been 2 hours before the race for this series. I just outlined it in red stating that we wouldn't let anyone race that missed sign in.

We're only being more strict because that's what people asked for in the lobby, we had complaints we were letting people race that had missed sign in, so the only way to do it fairly is to stick to the rules for everyone.

I don't like turning anyone away from a race and would rather have more people in but I thought there was plenty notice given as to when they would open and close
