PS2.Files to train:

[puttz]

I won't be entering, but I do have a few suggestions. Well, first off, make sure you put a space between the tag and the thread name (sorry, mods, I know that's backseat moderating but I figured I might as well point that out while I'm here. )

Second, that schedule is way too packed and long. You are only allowing a 3 or 4 days for all of the events, that's not enough time for people to make their races, not a lot of people will enter with a schedule like that, since it is hard to find time in such a short window. I would recommend trimming down to around 8 events, and allow a week for each round. Trust me, I've been there with the too may rounds thing (see the V8 Supercars link in my signature.) I almost wish I had cut it down to 8-10 rounds, it was originally 14, and went down to 12.

Third, you should release the car and track pack here in the thread so that people have a chance to train before the events. Usually compo creators will take the base game (make sure you use version 1.10c, not the latest 1.2 version as there are not compatible tools at the moment) remove the tracks, AIs, and cars from the folders, and place the car pack and tracks from the compo in the respective folders. Then create a zipped folder, and attach it to your thread. Also, make sure you have permission from the track and car creators before you use them in a compo, as many creators want people to ask permission before you distribute their content in compo packs.

Also, in what time zone is the start and end times? Remember, we have people from all over the world competing in these events, so my 23:59 may not be your 23:59. I suggest using GMT as your base time, that is what most people use since it is easiest to figure out. What does "goodbye" mean in the rules? Would that be a disqualification, I assume? And also, what does entering next round with a DQ mean? Does that mean if you are disqualified twice in a row you are not allowed to finish the season? There is also a discrepancy between the schedule and when you say the start date is. According to the schedule, it is August 8th, but then you say it starts October 14th Finally, the rules look a bit messy (I was also convicted of this in my first compo) and are hard to understand. Could you perhaps do some editing to make things clearer?

One other point, it seems like you should have more than one judge since this is going to be subjective. Having at least two judges and averaging their scores would be a good idea, I think.

3 days in the forum, forgive me for asking, but have you checked you have permission for all the cars and tracks that you plan to use? Personally I'm not sure a drift competition will work in GeneRally, but I'll happily be proven wrong.

[krustykrab]

3.Now i give zip with cars & tracks.
