GPGSL S10 R11: Brazilian Wax Grand Prix - Interlagos [Perfs posted][Seat Vacancy]
Posted by GPGSL
the issue I guess is the slight randomisation of BHP values done by GpxPatch.
if needed, I know from my own experience on RaceDepartment that 11 BHP has a big enough effect with still a slight chance of someone else taking it.

What's this breakaway series on Race Department? There a team slot for a team with a bit of prestige?

you mean with progressements from previous seasons?
for GP4, this one the most I'd say.

other two are actually focused against that
I've just got the infos from experience of running my own game.
but the monetary system we use rewards a team that does well in the first few races with good results for the remainder of the season.

That's not at all different here in the GPGSL. Teams that have a good start into the season usually do better in the end, too. But what are you guys expecting? Before the changes, it was the backmarker teams that had no chance and were complaining. Now it's the top teams complaining that their dominance is gone. But the only thing that was seriously changed was the boost system. So how comes that if the boosts don't work, backmarker teams were able to catch up with dominant teams of the past? Listen to yourselves, your logic is unlogical.
We felt that with those compromise-changes we did, we established an environment that is fairest to everybody without stripping the top teams completely off their past efforts. If we return back to the old system, we'll soon see new teams leaving the series because they don't have a chance again. And then, the top teams won't have anybody to race but themselves!
If it becomes clear that more than just a few frustrated people are for another rules change, send propositions of detailed changes to the GPGSL account and we'll try to make a working solution out of it that we'll bring up for discussion. But it should be clear to everybody that there'll always be individuals complaining over the current status.

What a strange race... drove around in lot of places in the race and finished 4th after my teammate Carlos on 3th place.
Congratulations to you Carlos with your 3th place on the podium and I'm glad we scored a lot of points for the ONE Team in the end.
Are you all still having fun... let's all go to the next round then.
Greetings from Austria... time to party

I'm with John on this one, though I completely understand Dan's point. I really think the boost systen can be revamped to be actually relevant, like in the GPGNC. When I joined I sent a boost of 500/500 (maximum), being used to GPGSL, I thought it would get me mid-grid, maybe steal a point. It got me 5th. The next race I didn't send a boost and ended up last. For the final one boosted maximum quantity again and ended 4th. That is a useful system.
GP4 is random, yes, but I feel that with so many changes we've made to try and please everybody (which may be wrong in a real series but we're all at least trying to have a good time, so we can do that), we've made it even more random. I'd sure hate being 1st and spinning without a reason, and this happened TWICE this race. My opinion is that we've got to stabilise a bit the random factor here, so that everybody's close, but we don't see the madness we saw now and in other races.
As to the point of building up a team perf, I want to point out that real life teams do not always get better and better. Look at Ferrari. They were crap in 09, OK in 10, crap again in 11, from crap to great in 12, crap again in 13-14 and they're great now. Heck, look at Mercedes, they were nowhere to be found just 3 years ago! I feel that it is an acceptable factor, however, as everything, it can be looked at.
Lastly, and more importantly, I strongly suggest we leave this discussion aside for now and pick it up after the end of the season, when we can always make and test changes. I'm all for some modifications if that's what it takes to keep this series together. We are here to have fun. I had fun now ending up 3rd, and I had fun last season being nowhere. Maybe that's just how I am.
Those were my...
Stats: 139 Starts / 7 Wins / 9 Poles / 5 Fastest laps

Many things need to be correct here. So, WDC and WCC on fight again!

What an awful race for AMR, pleased I managed to get the fastest lap despite my early trip home though
well to be honest I'm a bit for a balance rather than going to anything.
I'd say higher boost values, and lower variation values (250 works alright in all RaceDepartment series)

If you look at the backmarker/new teams from back then, Snake and MAC, they're still not any bit closer towards the top as the new rules/system totally screwed the order. AMR and MPR are still frontrunners, Shadow and especially TNR were put to the midfield/back end. And new teams like One join and start winning straight away. Before the changes you at least knew that you'd progress with time and teams dropping out. Now it appears to be even more random than it was before. Good perfs on driverside and being a long running team (i.e. in for several seasons) no longer seem to matter.

You can have differing opinions on this, but I personally think it's very poor behavior to advertise racing series from other forums within the GPGSL thread. If you're bad losers and jealous of those that were down there and now enjoy their moments of success, then share your experiences by PM, stop moaning, leave the series and go somewhere else, if you think it's so much better there. But you don't have to poison the atmosphere to those who are still enjoying this series. Sure you can be frustrated over a bad result or a bad season, but what some of you guys currently do is just really bad sports.

Activity Check Results
Two weeks ago, my mind was elsewhere,
I forgot to do this but instead, contrere;
John was a star and sorted it out
Discovering none who were out for the count.
But I'm back on form, I remembered the check
Away from cries of "turd", "bugger" and "feck".
To make the deal sweeter here's something else fun;
Who was away? The answer is NONE.
Pat yourselves on the back, but don't disappear;
In two weeks' time, I'll check who's been here.
The 25th of October?! Doesn't time fly!
Be here. If not, then poor Jakey might cry...
