◆ SNAIL [THE LOBANARO LOUNGE] No longer runningPS4

[Mike Lobban]

Baaaaaaa, baaaaaaaa, I'm back.
Just for being impatient I'm waiting till now till post. I need at least some grief from David before I'm ready.

All races are 12 laps in the summer
Race 1-12:00
Race 2-16:00
Race 3-18:00
We'll start the first race in the sunshine but, bad weather is predicted to enter about half way through the second race.....have a rain setup ready for your fuel stop. Thunderstorms are forecast for all of race three, which will make visibility a major factor. Penalties will be on so drive accordingly.
Fuel for the A guys 21 ltrs
Fuel for the B guys 18 ltrs.
Funny how the slower car burns more fuel......cheap ass POS.

 

[dret7277]

@the camel , thanks for the info.
I believe I try everything ......
For now I'm still not able to login .... my ps4 is out of service online.
@Mike Lobban, I will not race tonight

Sounds pretty interesting Lobbie. Should be a fun night.
Did a good couple practice runs previously (with no rain though). The cars handle quite nicely and the track is a nice track.

 

[Rob Brown]

I will be late, well, likely not able to join at all. 11 yr old first football practice. Wife wants to plan August vacation. Id rather do staycation but have to cooperate. Maybe I can sneak the PS4 along.
Please make my spot available for someone who is able to make it. Maybe even someone whose balls aren’t in the wife’s handbag

 

[Mike Lobban]

With all the talk about my neighbour Marnie over the last couple of years, (I think only Mike and SGETI have seen her),
I figured I had better post this pic. She said I looked to comfy and wanted to try it out, who am I to say no!

Look at the shat eating grin on Wankerboy and all the Frankenstein like zippers holding him together. Those aren't even the good ones, we'll have to talk him into posting photos of his hip and thigh.....now that's a beauty.
Marnie is super cute in a very girl next door type way. Of course, we all know about the girl next door, lonely all summer cause hubby is at work....I wonder why that plane is taking so long to build. Hmmmmmm. Maybe that's why the shat eating grin. I have a better pic of her but Steve won't let me post it.....too bad.



I have about 10 hrs flying one of these planes and I'm starting a collection to be able to purchase one. It's only 170,000$ US. Cmon guys, dig deep. I had a chance to buy into a partnership with 2 other guys on an older CT, but it fell through. Check out the Spider at the end.

Hmmm, verrryy eeentersting....
So, our coconut modem from Spectrum crapped out and they replaced it with a newer version. Still using the same router. Previously, I was getting Nat 2 when hard wired and nat 3 with wifi (never paid much attention to the numbers).
Now here is what I am seeing:
Wifi: NAT2 but only 7.5 DL with 25.1 UL
Lan: (oddly) NAT3 34.8 DL but only 1.6 UL

The reason I started hard wiring was because i never had Nat2 on wifi and was told that would help.
So, which should I use for tonight's racing to make sure all my binary cocnuts don't fall out of the tree?

Wired is always best Shaun. A bit strange they configured Lan for NAT 3 and not NAT 2 though I think. From what I recall that puts the router for PS4 console under a stricter firewall which may increase the possibility of interruptions or disconnects during gameplay.
You should consider asking them to at least put the connection for the PS4 to NAT 2 and remove the firewall restrictions thereby freeing up connection for gaming. Port forwarding and/or DMZ is what they call it. It's what I had them do. All was needed was to request of them to do it which they configured the router from their end following which they advised me what to do on my end via the PS4 network setup.

You are more than welcome Chris, as long as you understand if we fill up we may have to kick you in the nads. Maybe give Cameltoe some competition.

 

[potvinsuks]

Hey guys .

Would love to join tonight if I may?

I totally understand if were full, and I'm putting on my sports cup in case I can't get in .

I run my PS4 in DMZ mode. It bypasses the firewall all together and I never heard of anyone getting a virus on the PS4. I could be wrong, but never heard of it. You can also assign a static IP address for your PS4 which you will need to do to put it in the DMZ zone or Port forward anyway. If you don't want to put it in a DMZ then you will need to port forward the ports needed for the PS4. Here is a great website that explains how to port forward the PS4 (https://portforward.com/networking/static-ip-ps4/). This website will also show you how to enter the software to make adjustments in your provided router.

You beat me to it.


Mike- How much fuel are you running tonight. Good luck all.

 

[Rednose58]

Funny how the slower car burns more fuel......cheap ass POS.

Yea, I saw that. My testing got the same numbers (about 3.6 liters per lap). Burn rate is about the same as the Ford GT LM GTE that we drove last week.

Remember, I won't be there tonight.

 

[Mike Lobban]

Potvinsucks, same goes to you, you can race, but if we fill p, the regulars have priority. You will drive the B division.

Sounds good Mike, and thank you .

 

[jmutt_76]

Hey Mike, I know it's last minute but if you guys have room tonight, I'd love to join you guys again

 

[sgohsixthree]

For you @aerolite . I was told you were having trouble finding my stream. Should start in 5-10.

For you @aerolite . I was told you were having trouble finding my stream. Should start in 5-10.

I searched Twitch tv and YouTube last week but couldn’t find your feed. Thanks for putting up the feed here.
And thanks for the message that scrolls across the bottom right.
Good to watch, even for just one race, gotta pass out now.

 

[The__Camel]

Thanks for hosting tonight Lobban. I thought the car and track combo plus the B guys having the faster car made for some good racing. I really enjoyed tonight...(except the thunderstorms.....they are fun here and there....just cant race another driver)

 

[2pfspiff]

Wish I could have been there last night. Stupid work. I'll check out Sean's vid later at home. Can't get Twitch at work.

 

[aerolite]

Mike asked me to post pics of my injury’s ect. There’s nothing gruesome, just incisions and a pic of me stabilized the first night.

Spoiler: Injury pics

First night in ICU stabilized before surgery on sat am.

My lower left leg, broken tib, fib, foot and big toe.

This is where the rod was inserted that goes down thru the Tibula. The pics above are all for screws and pins. The foot split completely in two length wise close to where you see the only sutures. All the rest of the incisions were closed with staples. They all came out after two weeks.

This was the incision on left side where the femur, hip and pelvis were broken. There were 42 staples here.

This is right side for broken femur and hip.

Spoiler: X-rays

Rod, screws and plates on the left is my right leg femur/hip repair. The long series of screws with the plates (on the right)along the top is the repair to the Acetabulum on my left leg. This is the hip pelvis area that is keeping me hospitalized for the eight weeks.

This is the rod going down the Tibia, you can see the major diagonal fracture halfway down. The big screw at the bottom is a fracture where the fibula meets the bottom bone structure. You can also see plate and screws holding main foot bone together.

Front view of above.

A couple of the foot.

Looks like some clean line work there! I’m very impressed with the great care you are getting.

 

[Mike Lobban]

IDK, but racing in the rain seems pretty realistic to me. Some of you don't like it, to effen bad, I do and it's my ball, so there. The trick is to find the puddles that form on all race surfaces and try to avoid them as best you can. We all spun more than a few times in the rain, the puddles were brutal in the last race, but I think it added to the experience of what Lobanaro is all about, fun, and no one can deny that wasn't a blast tonight. Except for David.
And really, who didn't enjoy seeing Camel struggle like that.

McInnes on fire last night, no stopping him. Awesome and Baaawesome at the same time. I was just smouldering.
It was Awesome to be able to have Aerostitch watch and listen to Shaun's broadcast........we miss you buddy, you might have to go on the reserve list if you dont hurry back......... Are you able to do scoring?
Colts.....good thing the walls were there.....by the way, you were way too loud........shut up eh.
Good to see Hobbs back, not a good night for a return. See what yo bin missin, boy?

Ditto. I'm very impressed also.
Aero you real lucky yes. Accident like that could have been much worse with losing leg/s, hand, paralysed or whatever. And you still have your good looks.
Question: About the rod, screws and whatever inserted. What happens with that? After healing does it/they remain inside or do they have to open up the leg or whatever again to take them out?

Maybe I was misunderdstood.....I dont dislike the rain......just saying the thunderstorms didn't provide for "racing". I feel I did a decent job keeping up with the cars who were 3 seconds faster a lap and beat all the competition that was running the same car I was in. I struggled with the lap cars who were all over the road. I will run rain anytime you want to....I feel it just gives me more of an advantage over my competition. Not complaining about the rain....bring it on anytime. I enjoy all the different weather on this game. I think they have done a wonderful job with the weather and live track. In the Wednesday league we have all kinds of weather each week

Very fun night for sure. These cars were pretty good in the rain and a lot of fun. It's a good challenge to try to get better in the wet- I agree that they seem to have it down pretty good in the game. Camel nailed it - the rain is a good, fun challenge it just makes actual racing not as close. Next time let's leave damage on...
Sorry I hit that wall and became a wall myself right in front of you Shaun! Game locked up solid at that point, although when we put my cable straight into the modem I was NAT1! Gotta say thanks to Janice for sacrificing her wifi for a few hours so I could get maximum connection. Not like she needs it for porn anyway. Tanks to @davidt33 and @2pfspiff for the advice and input - I will check into that stuff. Once I translate it.

I agree with Shaun @aerolite, I think the docs have done a great job putting yo all back together with clean and tidy stitches considering the extent of damage.

Welcome to the new guys. Athough, every time I see @potvinsuks I read povsucks and I'm confused...

 

[HOBBZ]

A fun night for sure!
I enjoy turning on the weather features in the game here and there, it's cool we have the option, but I had my fill after the first dose in the second race.

It was great to get back, thanks for the open door, Mike. It was sort of a test night that went well and I should be able to keep showing up so long as there's room. I had to carefully convince my wife to give me three hours plus, with no kids interruptions!

 

[GUTTERBOY3007]

Sorry about the no show last night. I decided I’d be motivated and clear brush all day in 110 degree heat. After getting cleaned up I was going to “rest my eyes” for a few minutes. Woke up at about midnight.

Good news is I discovered a new band for the BOB crowd. These guys rock! They say music is the soundtrack of your life. Guns and Roses and AC/DC were my “go to” bands when I was younger and out partying, but the songs from “Dads” really represent my new reality...

The doc said I didn’t want to know how close I came to being paralyzed waist down! Or for that matter not making it, scary to think about it.
The rods, plates and screws remain and will quite often even get covered over in new bone and tissue.
I went back to the hospital in the city today (much better ambulance ride) for updated X-rays and to see a couple of the surgeons. All is progressing well. Denise was able to take pics of the X-rays which was great as I’ve been wanting so much to see them. I have added another spoiler to my post on this page showing them.
