ok, heres the rules for a higher ranked server.
I havent set one up yet due to the following reasons....
time and effort
limits who can play
limits tracks selection
limits game mode
If your interested in one though post up thoughts below......
Amateurs place (deposit: 10000C)
0 => 60000
-public
Serious challengers (deposit: 20000C)
20000 => 70000
-no lol map
-20 players max
-public
Competitive racers (deposit: 40000C)
40000 => 80000
-Race tracks
-Rounds or Time attack mode
-16 players max
-Public, Validation seed, Referee*
Pro racing (deposit: 80000C)
60000 => 90000
-Rounds mode
-"Big competitions" tracks
-12 players max
-8 spectators places
-Public, Validation seed, Referee*
Races of champions (deposit: 80000C)
80000 => 100000
-Approved by Nadeo
-Rounds mode
-"Big competitions" tracks approved by Nadeo
-8 players max
-16 spectators places
-Open the sunday from 15 GMT to 18 GMT
-Public, Validation seed, Referee
* optional, but Nadeo can demand later there is at least
one referee on your server |

Id play em, i know you were considering having an A-B server again and racing would be very tight.
But would take regulars away from madlaps pro server id guess. _________________ Alloy Wheels are us at POTN.COM |

Would it? No, I doubt it. Players come and go from whatever side server runs, but always go back to the main Laps server. _________________

For nothing else it looks like we should have one for prominence with the players who are filtering for servers they can score LPs on, we must be missing a few punters by now. Raising the coppers shouldn't be a problem, Competitive Racers looks about our speed. _________________

i'd go for Serious challengers 20000 => 70000
i'm thinking most of the regulars will be close to or over 20000 and if its going to take a month or two to organize gives everyone (at least on the forum) to know the score
Competitive racers 40000 => 80000
although i'm close to 40000 i know a lot of people won't be and it also takes the players down to 16 |

I'm happy with any pointlimits as long as we aren't forced into doing A2B's. |

Since i don't like limits and i don't care about ladder points, i'm not interrested at all in a higher ranked server. |

i'm not bothered about points and rank too much but i usually end up on 20000+ servers when theres not many people on laps servers (i can't do RFR, to me its no fun)
if i'm going to be forced into AtoB's then i might as well be getting decent points for it (i got 10000 points in the last 2 nights on one server which has put me over 40000 now)
being able to keep it as a laps server would be a definite bonus for me |

Mad time attack would be fun.
but id prefer we get the say of what tracks are allowed, not nadeo.
also give us rookie track builders more chance of a track on a server _________________

I think a higher ranked server would be good, a 40,000-80,000 would give us a good range for everybody to join and score points (apart from Andsome), we could each donate a few coppers to Mad, then maybe he could set one up, maybe call it MADLAPS POINTS?, put about 21 tracks on n race till a silly hour laughing and joking on vent,
Sound like fun anyone???

You can all thank me for this thread because if I hadn't been the 14th lucky customer to ask mad about it in vent then he wouldn't have had to explain it in terms even I comprehend.
I'd like to stick with laps but that's not looking possible. Please don't make it time attack as in an effort to try and not plummet down the Scotland rankings from 14th to bottom (15th) I started hunting points out playing people called Blade and Laser on time attack servers and they call everyone noobs and rubbish in only the way a 12 year old french kid could, it's not a pleasant gaming experience I can tell you.
If you need coppers mad just let me know I don't use mine anyway. _________________

spanky it was a subtle tone in dans post but I started one last night
for now a 40-80,000 points server in rounds mode running 20ish tracks from mad laps....
The main server will always be the main server and shortly everyone will reach 90,000 points and we'll be back to people scoring zeros again....
have fun
dan donated all his coppers to the cause.... as did other people but he can't stop whinging about it! |

this server is the best server i ever played on, so i dont really care about points when i play here. Its just for fun and you(we) have a superb community here!
If you decide to make a higher ranked server i will support you mentally and with coppers (where/how can i donate?).
When you decide to go for it, i would recommend 20-70k for a start, you can always put that server offline and/or make another 60-90k server later, when majority of players reaches 60k.
cheers
edit: lol, i just saw the date |

Yeah, you're a bit late dude
The server is called Mad Laps Points (40 000 => 80 000) and is also located in Scotland if i'm not wrong.
Talking about coppers, if some of you have too many of them, we could create an official organisation called MadLaps for 100 000 coppers.
I already have "a lot" but not 100 000 yet.
If you're interrested Mad... |
