ToM compo S8 [SurpriseLogin] [R] (Round 8!)

[Reh]

Race done.
I hope i did everything right this round

[Momo]

race done
no good race i think but first time i play since more 1 years

''Back of the pack'' penalty. Not equal to DQ, you're still in results, but on last place (if more BOPs in one race, then time decides - you did more laps than Mszostus).

and what back of the pack mean? it means, that i made something wrong? (wrong track, etc.) sorry, that i dont really get it

[Lukeno94]

Yes, it does mean you did something wrong, and read Trigger Happy's results post to see what. And back of the pack = put into last, if several people get the penalty then it would order based on their race pace.

Other notes

zgr : BOP (no screenshot)
....

You didn't upload it after race, only replay.

[bgcatfan]

You didn't upload it after race, only replay.

My first ever race in the old GRASCAR I was disqualified because my screenshot was bad (no skidmarks...totally new concept for me at the time). Sometimes one must learn by experience. Don't worry about it, zgr. Next time you'll get it right .

[zgr]

well, i had a screenshot and sent it...
because i had problems with log-in...(i logged-in, raced and wanted to sent the files...but when i press on sent, it loaded a bit and it showed me, that i have no connection and when i refreshed the site, i was logged out)
so i sent the files to buka in a pm...

hey buka, i have a big big problem!

so, first i made my race with the truck in valhalla, after i was finished, i wanted to sent the files, but it took some minutes and then i automaticly logged out! i made a second try and again, log-out, when i tried to sent the files
maybe you know whats wrong

i uploaded it on megaupload
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2JFA8M7P
when you downloaded it, please tell me, to delete the files

greets

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2JFA8M7P <--- and there is a screenshot!

@ zgr: The files look correct, sorry for this issue, it was error in communication between Buka and me. Results & replays updated. Next time try upload both files at once, please.

[Trigger Happy]

This morning Buka was 20th driver trying this round and we'll still about 12 hours before deadline, so don't forget to give your run - we're still racing!

[Lukeno94]

Well, ... (censored by Trigger Happy, too big hint about track) ... silly mistake really, when I felt happy with my pace. Also, I hope it sent the right replay file, please tell me if it didn't... (I initially tried to send the round 1 replay)

[Nolb]

It seems, that I'm not able to do my race now, because login doesn't work for me. Obviously I made a mistake when I changed pw last time, now it always sais wrong pw. I wrote an email and hope to get access before the deadline.

[Trigger Happy]

I sent new password right now, but it's too late - deadline passed with midnight, so now you can race 3rd round like already did:

kuba: 30:51.

[Vilkku]

I'm so good

I skipped first round because I didn't have 30 minutes in that week for ToM.

Second round. Since when is ToM races deadline been saturday?

So, I noticed it's saturday so I quickly downloaded everything bla bla blaa...I started practicing, it was okay. I decided to start a race, but damn HP who put Sleep button next to ESC. So, my computer restarted (as sleep mood doesn't even work ). After 10 minutes I was able to start GR and Google Chrome. I started driving and after 10 laps my GR crashed because Google Chrome was ready... If I would have started race again, my time would have been something like 45 minutes, so I decided to give up and went to sleep.

3rd round can't be worse

[kuba]

damn HP who put Sleep button next to ESC

You can disable that horrible functionality in Control Panel > Power Options.

Thank you

I we just pointed out on terrible mistake in the schedule. This round lasts, of course, 1 week, not two. Now correct schedule is available in the first post. I'll ask Jo to change it too at the GWR.

[Lukeno94]

The schedule is the same in the first post as before? *is confused*

The schedule is the same in the first post as before? *is confused*

Vilkku : 31:20 I hope this time everything was OK.

No, everything is not okay.

I saved my game like "Vilkku/R3" so I lost my gam and sent only autosave.gam.......................................................(+ screen)

Even in my "up and down" career this is my worst season start ever

I*M SO GOOD

[XYY]

Buka, what about posting the results of the last race?

[Buka]

Buka, what about posting the results of the last race?

We're (Ivo's) working on it. Sure you'll have them soon.

[Trigger Happy]

Definitelly soon, replays and table (in zip to not spoil replays) are on website, the analysis later like always.

(Sorry for being bit late, I have troubles with connection).

[ACM]

I just looked at the table.

Oh please no. Don't tell me I submitted the wrong save file without noticing. (As in, the one from the first round.)

[Buka]

I just looked at the table.

Oh please no. Don't tell me I submitted the wrong save file without noticing. (As in, the one from the first round.)

Wow, there's a mess in results. We've got your files and they are OK. Looks like it's a mistake.
