What? It's not? I told that flunkie to put everybody's name on it. They are so fired!

Poll edited.

If you want something done.....

 

[MSgtGunny]

I'll have to pass on DM, while I ran divisions for close to a year? I just don't have the time right now.

 

[socalnatv]

I hate to say it, but I will not be able to participate on Sunday's for a while.
Things at home need my attention more now than ever before, so I must take care of business with the family.

I will return to SNAIL Sunday nights as soon as possible, but for now, I'm out.

Thanks to all who do what you do to make this league as much fun as it is!!!!
Much appreciation and respect!!!!

 

[TXAH606]

Once again, I'm going to do my best to make it, but I'm mid race season and don't get back until 5 on Sundays. I promise some decent GoPro footage, both of driving and me yelling ****.

 

[Grandpa Money]

I got scores ...

 

[Adramike]

I'll be the DM for this season. Need Host/Replays/Data still.

 

[CoachMK21]

Just a friendly reminder that the replays still need to be uploaded. Deadline is 8 pm ET tonight.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Flunkie fired.

OP Updated.

 

[Adramike]

Since I learned how to do replays yesterday I will do them for the rest of this season as well.

Still looking for a permanent host and data specialist.

@Grandpa Money will you do scores?

[Dragonwhisky]

I won't be able to get data this week or for a few weeks. My A/V receiver took a dump and it's on its way back to depot for repair/replace.

 

[Adramike]

Checking in to confirm duties for tonight? @Grandpa Money @Kgffy

I have replays.
Still need someone to step up and do Data.

 

[Kgffy]

I'll host, but if we have small 5car grid like last 2 racing nights then I'm sitting out.

 

[Grandpa Money]

I'll be there .. not a lot of practice but I'll be there ...

 

[Grandpa Money]

Too bad we couldn't merge with D3 if we only get 5-6 .. these 5 driver nights are not a lot of fun

[Kgffy]

Agree, hoping we go to 3divs nxt season. Problem is guys not racing have not posted to be taken off full time list.

 

[Kgffy]

I'll open rm 20 min

They don't need to post. They'll fall off in about 8 weeks of no shows.

 

[Kgffy]

I know they don't need to post, just seems if guys let jlb know their done racing it would giv him more accurate list of active drivers. Yeah we can wait 8 weeks and just race 5 cars on the grid sunday nights tell then. And if I'm missing something plz let me know, I'm not trying to start something I love snail, just not fun racing small grids and seeing a lot of full time racers not show up this whole season.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

So far as I know, after 4 weeks of no shows, drivers fall off the full time roster and aren't counted for divisional break down. Divisional break downs are re-aligned each season and are usually factored off the previous season's attendance numbers. If the current numbers carry through to the end of the February season, SNAIL will be down to 3 divisions for the March Season. Hang in there, larger grids will happen. The downside of compressing divisions however is, the skill spread within any particular division becomes a bit wider. If you want to keep track of the number the divisional breakdowns is based on, check cell A1 in the month tab of SNAIL Data. Keep in mind that this number isn't the be all end all for how many divisions SNAIL runs, but it does figure fairly prominently.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Something I forgot to mention and just remembered. Full time drivers that miss 2 nights in 1 season will also fall to the part time roster.

Also, there are a few names on the driver list that are sort of "Active Emeritus" or "Active/Part time Emeritus". Kinda sorta like that anyway.

Thx dragon your explanation makes a lot more sense to me. Just weird d2 had full grid last season then it went complete opposite this season. Where did every one go. Gtsport needs to hurry up. I already have money saved for PS4, wheel, and 4K tv, just need a racing game worth upgradeing too. Project cars not offering spec racing not helping things.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

D1 kinda' did the same thing, although the opposite way to D2.

 

[Marcus Garvey]

Combo selection seems to have a direct impact upon turnout in various ways, as well, and can go both directions.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

I thought of a way for me to get data entered for D2.

If someone can post up pics from a replay of the timing screens at the start and end of each race. I can enter the data. I just can't do anything with the replays myself until my receiver gets back from repair depot.

I can try to get D2 data done tonight , I may have some free time , I'll try.

 

[Grandpa Money]
