A few simple rules for this club:

1. Download the widget.
----Leave 1 Driver free.
----Add everyone in the club to "Reciprocate". The rest to "Never Use" (3-5 friends are okay to fill the fields if the club's bobs are too busy).
----When you've added everyone, please logout/in on your PS3 so everything gets updated.
----Run Cape Ring only (following this link for codes) - Cape Ring has the highest cr/xp payout. :)

2. Add everyone on the "Members List".

3. Other rules on frequency / activity
----It's recommended you race about 5/7 days per week (one race/day will not keep you in the club).
----When you have not raced for 5 days you will be marked in red in the activity log and put to "never use".

----You can check the activity of all the members in the club here.
----At least 50% of the drivers you race need to be from the club (this will be a weekly check starting from 08/08).
----If you are below 50% you have until the next check (1 week) to make sure you are above 50%, if you don't adjust your widget within a week and are still below 50%, you will be removed from the members list to make room for a new member.

Sign me up as well.
Running the widget whenever I'm not fooling around ingame myself. :)
But have it running most nights.

PSN: WhiteRuin
 
PSN: Jiggysmax

I usually run the widget for a day or two then leave it off for a day or two. I try to run it as much as possible though
 
Sign me up! Getting back into remote racing after my recent A-Spec fest, will have widget running from about 10pm to 1pm next day most weekdays

PSN: RLR_KartRacer32
 
Hi add me please. I was on the club 1 list. Still waiting for psn to be back over here, latest news is today.. i'm hopeful.
 
I'll hop on. I usually grind at least a few hours a day, sometimes all day when the wife doesn't notice its been on all day, :sly:

Looking to replace some folks on my list that aren't racing me back recently.
Thanks.
 
Guys I can't host a race unless I have 1 driver. See rule #1

If its a repeat offender over time, check your log and let us know so we can remove the kink in the hose. :ill:

*edit*
Not to mention, how long does the grinder take to update your friends list these days? had a couple folks accept invitations 4 hours ago, but they still don't show up in the grinder 2.5.1.
 
Grinder for some odd reason says server mainentance ... i dont know wtf is goin on..


seems the log in server is down or something..
 
My friend list seems to update fine as long as I always log out of gran-turismo.com, exit the widget, log out and back in on ps3. Well oiled machine just the oil seems hard to find lol.


PS - Not to offend anyone but any new friend requests I get won't be approved until I see the name here.
 
Server Maintenance also.

I'm running races manually and trying to get everyone, but if I don't, remember I'm a guy and not a widget.
 
Thanks for those who already added me, will add the rest tomorrow sometime. All in this group will be marked as "Use everytime" in my widget.

Is somebody keeping status of who is actually active grinders just to see if we got one freeloader who sneaked in here?

I wont accept people, who's name isn't in this thread!

You can check your friends' race results to see how often they race by clicking on community, then on their id/psn/profile, and then on the remote race button. It will give the date and time of the last 50 remote races they hosted. You should get a very good idea from that.

P.S. Ok, I guess I'm in too. PSN: WakeStriker
 
Sorry guys but i'm done manually racing for a while. If anyone could pm me when we can widget again would be cool
 
Hey quick question for all you guys,

There are people I've added yesterday that still aren't showing up in my friends list on the widget so I am unable to race bobs from those who have added me in this group, any suggestions? I want to be able to return the favor to you all, but this issue is preventing me from doing so..

Thanks in advance!

Normally just logging out on ps3 and restart widget should do the trick. You are in Minnesota and you can run the widget? I'm in Vegas and been getting "server maintenance" since yesterday so if you want to keep running the widget you may not want to log out.

Don't worry RLR, I'm in the exact same situation. I'm in atlanta and also can't log in. I think the gt5 website is down so we can't login to the website or use the grinder cuz it uses the web interface, but doing it manually from the ps3 still works. I just can't keep up with the manual thing (props to chipotle). I haven't been able to race anyone in this group yet, as soon as the widget can be used again (and assuming it will pick up the folks I added yesterday too) I'll have everyone going soon.
 
Thanks guys, yeah my widget doesn't work today and I tried logging onto the GT5 site which was also a no-go, so I guess I'll be confined to doing them manually from the PS3 until the site is fixed!
 
Stupid PSN maintenance.. Get online so we can use the widget..

btw, i can't add JAG_-DA-_BEAST

It says he has reached the friends list limit..
 
Manually from the ps3 is getting tedious. The server is so slow for me that it seems like half the time is spent populating the race and the other half the race itself. GRRRRRRR

I just stopped all together. There is just waaaay to much waiting for drivers to pop.:grumpy:
Hopefully we get the servers back online soon.
