FORMULA1_4_FUN SEASON 3 / Re: A new idea for expansion, thoughts?

Alright guys, we officially have our RD forum!
Link : http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/forums/ps3-pacific-formula-one-4-fun-league.53/

Right now it's empty but by the time you guys get up in the morning, I will have drummed up something and we will see if we can't snag a handful or so more guys.

When you guys get all licensed up, just shoot a post over on one of the threads that I begin.

Thanks.

Well, Tom over on RD told me that they would create the forum for me on Tuesday. It is now Sunday ... how long does it take to create a forum?  ::)

The site was down for maintenance for most of Wednesday, so I can understand that ... but it's almost the end of the weekend now.

Did you guys all go apply for the license? (I see livolay and kartdude are unlicensed members still).

When the forum gets created, I will post the link in this thread.

Gazza, if it's ok with you, I will write up a little blurb when the forum gets created? If you want to do that yourself, then that's completely fine I don't want to step on anyone's toes.

Can I break my 2nd place streak this race?  ::)

Work in progress ....

Gaz - just watched the video again, was an unfortunate racing incident I think - you came up alongside me quick and we just interlocked wheels, so sorry that it broke your front wing  :-[ you were doing a terrific job racing up front with us in the meantime though. I wouldn't say that practice was thrown out the window, had you not practiced I guarantee you would've been barely able to hang on.

Q: 5th ; spent more time learning the track again really, have too many setups loaded at this circuit for some reason and luckily the parc ferme being off allowed me to find the best one out of all the saved ones. Was happy to see how tight the grid was after Q

R: 2nd ; the first few laps were very interesting with everyone sliding and going off and bumping and pushing....all that did was allow Moss to disappear into the night. I made a mistake when Livo was off in the grass and dropped through the field ... then got back up and was side by side with Gazza going down the front straight ... hit the brakes too late and nearly took Stubbs with me, when I rejoined Gazza came up alongside and we collected each other and went right into the wall :(. I was in dead last for quite a while trying to find some sort of rhythm and finally I caught up to Angry, Kart, and Gazza and was just trying to take it easy racing with them.

Angry was giving me a hard time as his car was faster in a straight line, so I turned the fuel mix up to try and fend him off. I pitted one lap after Stubbs for new wets.

The 2nd stint was kinda boring minus the fact that I was catching Stubbs by a few tenths per sector. Moss had made a mistake so it was me chasing down the lead. Made a couple of mistakes along the way, and for the 2nd race in a row, I finish 1 second behind the leader in 2nd place ... guess that's all I'm good for now  ::)

Good racing guys, the wet definitely made this race a bit more interesting. Satisfied with my wet weather performance, just bummed about the critical errors that ruined my chance at a win.

Don't worry Stubbs - when I get the subforum created I will make sure to map out exactly who we are and what our intentions are and you will need to fit in with the crowd in order to play with us.

You guys can start out by registering for the site, and applying for a "license" on RD ... where all you have to do is reply with your first, last name and what games you play.

Here is the link for license : http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/threads/read-this-first.43576/

Self-explanatory

Hey guys ...

I came to an epiphany last night suddenly when I was talking to Stubbs ... and I think that this could potentially save our league.

Remember the start of this season when we were going to move shop over to PRL and it fizzled? Well, I was part of the group that originally was against it because I thought it would be too confusing, but lets face it - we are in need of a few more drivers and want to have a bit more good competition. So I had a new idea.

Why don't we reconsider the same idea, except lets set up shop at RaceDepartment? At the moment, there is no Pacific-based league for the PS3 console on the site, and the site has TONS of people on there that are always ready to sign up for a league if they see one available. We can have our own subforum on there where we can run the league/forum just like this - exactly how we want it. Moss and I (and I believe Livo) are already members over there anyway (a third of the league..) so we would just need to get a few more of you guys registered over there and we can start running Season 4 fully on RaceDepartment.

My other thought was to get our forum up there ASAP - I was going to talk to the site admins (I know them pretty well as I help run/organize the ex-official PS3 Sunday league that I am in) and see if we can get a subforum at the soonest, and if I post some information about the league, hopefully I can lure a handful of guys over on to this site at first so they can run with us / get a feel for how our league is run and the laid-back mentality that we have, so that we can start fresh for Season 4.

But, as Gary always says, this league is all about us. So therefore before anyone does anything behind closed doors, I wanted to post this and make sure everyone has an opinion and I don't want to do any of this if it makes anyone uncomfortable ... but again you have to admit we need to get a few more people in our lobbies.

Thanks for reading, hope we can reach for the skies here  :P

You raced here Striker last season, don't you remember I took you out on the starting grid?  ::) :-\ :-\

Stubbs kicks ass at hungary .. was hanging on for dear life for this PRL round  :D
Think Dale did pretty well here also ... if he can keep the Red Bull on the road, we might not be able to chase him down.

I'll troll the public lobbies tonight and see if I can find any new talent ... anyone who wants to join me feel free.

Hm, don't think I'm a fan of the girls this week ... but anyway.

Can we just go over quickly who is going to be driving what car this week for certain please because I don't think everyone is satisfied.
