TNRC 26.2.08 Results

[Middenrat]

This went off rather well, eighteen racers showed - eight Blues and ten Reds for most of the meeting after Bboy (great to see you enjoying yourself, Dalefan) changed Teams to sharpen the competition.
The tracks mainly proved a good selection given their hasty assembly, next week will be even better I hope with suggestions welcome.
Placing the points threshold at Four saw some of the tracks rotating a wee bit quickly, but that was as much about pwnage as anything , not that I was doing much pwning. Almost all the points were scored by the same half-dozen guys, which was the most disappointing aspect. It occurs to me that having won a round, that player might exclude himself for one round
My first meeting as Admin 'flying solo' and I hope I haven't garbled these results too badly:
...................................................Blues.........Reds..............................
Scotland GP....................................7................3................................
Galt's Ski Resort.............................3.................5................................
MultiLap 49......................................0................7...............................
Oval................................................4................0...............................
Stunt Nuts........................................6................0................................
Strangely Normal..............................1................4...............................
Kart Klassic.......................................5...............1...............................
Orange..............................................0...............6..............................
Wee Hops..........................................0...............4..............................
Face Your Foe....................................4...............1..............................
White Horse.......................................4...............0..............................
TRACKS WON>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 6 >>>>> 5 >>>>>>>>>>>

I called Time on these eleven tracks after we had played 40 minutes, which was about perfect for my piles , after which the French were rolled over and Poled HARD . Yes, we all loaded up Gord's excellent 1000kp/h giant cig butts and went a-visiting on PistonLaps-One.
Now, DaMadman and me had a trial run of this a couple of weeks ago and it was hilarious with just two of us; with so many more I was in danger of pissing my pants from the laughs! Some stout fellows on Vent co-ordinated the neatest moves (such as the Red Arrows will surely be copying this summer), I had to quit at 9.15 for work but clocked in still smiling
Thanks to everyone participating in the first Tuesday Night Racing/Raiding Club, and to DaMadman for setting it up even though he had to pass. Next week? Oyes!

Bah, I still think the white horse score should have been 4-1, I mean, me and steve did manage a dead heat in the first round

Last night was alot of fun, well done to everyone who took part and set it up

The raid was particularly funny, theres nothing better than seeing people crash as they attempt to pass a wall of poles moving slowly around the track Oh, and whoevers idea it was to make a wall at the top of that hill - brilliant

Yeah it was fun.

But you need to use a different team format. As far as I know theres 4

Team Time Attack (winner is calculated by all the drivers on both teams)
Team Rounds (same as TA just in rounds)
Team Rounds 2 (Person who comes 1st in the race wins that round for his/her team)
Team Rounds 3 (What you saw last night, 1st is worth +2, 2nd is +1)

It's not the winning, its the taking apart

Actually, what we were using last night was:

1st place = 1 point
All other racers who finish before the 1st person from the other team = +1 point

Which is why we got some rounds over so quickly, as all it took was 2 rounds with a 1-2 for a team.

i think team time attack is the "fairest" (the first one dantski mentions)

I need to adjust the server settings if anyone has some bright ideas. the team setup options are not described in detail anywhere that makes sense.

Last night the team points limit was 4
The max points per team 3

this ensured 2 races per track, but would like to see points from everyone making a difference.

will experiment sometime.

sorry i missed it and last weeks GP aswell.
Had my nose broke a few days ago and the last thing on my agender was been on the computer....

[retoon]

go blue team. sadly i missed it but i hope to be there for the next one.

[Middenrat]

going by Swat's scoring, Reds won , but that assumes all the other scorelines are correct and i give no guarantees, bein a bear of very little brain. Best just call it a Success
