Generally Rookie Championship : Season 21 [Login] [Race]

[boblopette]

gosh, i'd never thought i'll be in the top positions on my first drive ever!
and congrats to bduddy and all the other drivers of course, incredible race for real

[Buka]

With a bit more than one day left, I've got two files from two racers - Bird and Spacethingy.

[puttz]

My files are sent. I swear the Yellow AI is out to get me Also, in Sanjing, what is considered cutting? There is a place where you can gain an advantage by driving over the sunk tyres rather than driving around them.

[boblopette]

just sent my files, too.
terrible race for me, i got nervous and i made a lot of mistakes
like 4/5kph worse than the practice

ps. @buka: may i ask if is it possible to have the nickname listed as "boblopette", with the lowercase b? thank you very much!

Well, intentional flying over the sunk tyres will be punished, of course. You're supposed to drive around them.

ps. @buka: may i ask if is it possible to have the nickname listed as "boblopette", with the lowercase b? thank you very much!

Yes, sure. It will be changed when Sacheringen's results will be published.

[MidnightRunner]

I've done my race. It was faster than expected. Hope to get a top 5.

[harryss]

buka, had a problem! I just logged and started running more or less on lap 7, there was a blackout in my city because of the rain! I run again or not?

[TuomoH]

@harryss: You posted to Season 18 topic from 2011. I think you meant the current season so I moved your post.

Ok, feel free to make another attempt.

Results will be posted and new event will begin on Monday evening.

[Buka]

Sorry for delay, but results are finally here. But I strongly recommend you to watch replays first. The fight for the victory was a real thriller.

...will be punished unless you would be forced to shortcut by AIs.

[MidnightRunner]

Amazing battle for the lead again.

Round 3 will be interesting, Sanjing's hmap is a bit tricky.

[Bird]

Please check the points table: Salartas has 24 points and Spacethingy 22.

[Jo.sk]

I think the truth is :
- Sartalas : 6th + 12th = 14+8 = 22pts
- Spacethingy : 11th + 7th = 9+13 = 22pts

[bduddy]

Argh, sooo many mistakes... even getting launched over the pit wall, how embarrassing... I could have gotten top 4 easily if I drove like I did in practice, I'm surprised I finished as highly as I did...

Also, just checking the standings, you gave me a FL in round 1 instead of Rafael...

[boblopette]

well, at least i made the fastest lap

[boblopette]

sorry Buka, i had a similar problem like harryss while logged: there was a blackout in my zone (and it doesn't even rain!) and my pc went off! the funny thing is that i was almost finishing the race may i run again if it's possible?

[FRUKIScze]

Isn´t this weird? Two blackouts in two weeks? And in winter? What if they don´t have any blackout? What about adding engine Failure?!?!?

Thanks, guys. Everything should be fixed by now.

Yes, that's weird, but still possible. I prefer to trust people and while I let Harrys to make another try, how can I forbid boblopette?

---------------------------------------------------

Oh, and don't forget - the deadline is today!

Ok. No problem. I am just warning you, to do not let this blackouts have everyone.

[MidnightRunner]

I've done my race. It couldn't be worse. 3~2kph slower than expected.

[puttz]

Unfortunately I think I am going to miss this round But I shall be back at the next race! (Who cares, right? )

first of all, thank you Buka for let me try again!

i'm very sorry if it sounded weird, i'll explain better what happened: my building is relatively new and so has a new type of power counters which also are - and i don't know why - extremely sensitive, plus there are other houses being builded in the zone so they have to mess with cables or stuff like that, so both the season and the weather don't matter with this problem, there are times that the power goes off all of a sudden even a couple of times in a month! it's an annoying problem but it really doesn't depend by me, i can only hope it doesn't happen anymore while racing (also, i don't even have an advantage from this because i don't have much time to play today! )

[Lukeno94]

FRUKIScze, whilst your concern is valid, Buka is an incredibly experienced competition runner, I'm pretty sure he knows what he's doing.

[Rennfahrer]

I apologize, but I have to had a second try, because I pressed a different taste on my keyboard instead of ESC!
I´m sorry, and hope that it´s not unfair, that I made 2 Races in my login, I´m feeling so sorry, it´s never happen again, I promise!
I´m just so nervous, and hope to not get penalisied because of my actions!

[bduddy]

The AI ruined my first stint, but I think I did OK other than that... one question, though, did anyone else feel like the competition track seemed slightly different from the practice track? It felt like it had a slightly different Hmap or something, maybe it was just me...
