Daytona 24- Hosts (NEEDED)

I need hosts for stints.

Please post in here if you're willing to host any of your stints. The lobby settings are here, I can give you a rundown on how things work in a party chat or via PM.

Stints that need covering all the following:

Room A- None, all set.
Room B- 1, 3, 7, 10, 12
Room C- 1, 7, 8, 11

Any and all help is appreciated. Please PM me here or send me a message on XBL!!

Edit #1- Thank you Mr Cozza 9 for hosting Room B, Stint 9!

Room C
Got me down for stint 8 host. i will not able updated team stints this morning.

Good with doing stint 1.   Please be available for party chat 45 mins before start.

How about regrouping it to two instead of three lobbies?
With Dragons taking care of stint 1 and me jumping in for stint 12 then only stint 7 would need to be sorted.

Or are the current B lobby hosts placed too high, causing them to move up into Lobby A if we do that?

I can host stints 1 and 11 for B lobby

Edit: I'm actually racing stint 12 so may be hard pushed to host stint 11, but can do if no one else steps forward.

This would cause there to be 22 people in each lobby if split evenly meaning there will most likely be more lag outs due to the larger lobbies and the required media members will not have room to be in the lobby either. Plus we are planning on having a pace car in A lobby at least so with all that planned and not wanting to get near 24 people in a lobby as it would cause connection problems, we must have 3 lobbies.

Come on...yes, the more people are in one lobby the more likely it will be that somebody lags out, but mostly such lagouts happen because of a not so good internet connections in the first place or because the person that lagged out was streaming (where the lagout is mostly caused due to the high network load by the streaming service).
Also media coverage should come AFTER the driver's needs, and as long as I haven't missed something, we are still short on some hosts. So sacrificing some media coverage in order to have enough hosts for each stint (incl. possible backups) - to ensure a smooth going of the event - would be (in my opinion) worth the risk.

Streaming doesn't take up as much bandwidth as you think. Also, Turn 10's servers have NEVER been stable on FM6, and they've been particularly bad the past few days, so 2 lobbies isn't going to help. There's literally no issue with having 3 lobbies as long as SOMEONE in each lobby can host, regardless of their position on the site.

I'm down to host lobby 11, that's not going to work my internet is mediocre at the best of times, and I'm not risking a lag out sorry guys

Should be fixed. we'll look into it.

I can host stint 7...heard that the starting grid for each stint will be communicated by staff, so I'd be online around 30 minutes before the stint.

I cannot remember what stint I said I could host for C lobby... But I can do the 9am-11am stint, if that isn't covered... If I said any other stint, I cannot host. Just as an update...

@Dragon: You signed up as host for stint 8!  

Leaving me - the host of stint 7 who originally just wanted to collect his credits post the distances and then catch up on some sleep - with 14 clueless drivers that got no invites/idea who their host was supposed to be.

So thanks for that!

I prepared the lobby and got them ready to go now. LMP Phantom or somebody else will write down the distances, once stint 8 is done.
