MEW F1 2019 League Races [MEWRL]

OT: just realised that the Afrikaans for father is “vader”, so in the Dutchman dubbed versions of Star Wars, Luke could say “Vader is my vader”. :grinning:

By yesterday evening there weren’t that many people who tried the time trial yet. I was surprised.

You did absolutely nothing to me, you are just a good benchmark for me. You are faster than me (if you stay on the track), but within catching range. So its a good benchmark to catch up to you.

I know, dont worry :wink:

And you hit the nail with my biggest flaw: staying on the track!

I love surprising people! So please be surprised when I put in a fast time trial lap tonight!

Unfortunately I had some personal bad news. Will not be joining tomorrow. Maybe the next one.

Sorry to hear, and totally understandable Soli. Hope it’s not too heavy. If I can help with anything, drop me a PM with pleasure.

I do see that you’re one of the few who has accepted the League invite, so if all works as planned, your AI driver should handle things for you tomorrow night.

On the same subject, I do also need to let y’all know that I too will sadly have to DNS tomorrow. Not for the same reasons as Soli, but for an unexpected and unavoidable dinner with a potential client with the wife. If she can get business from him, she’ll be able to keep her business open for another year, so it’s “sort of more important than a virtual race with your friends”. Or so I’ve been told at least :smiley:

Sorry and all.

I did make Soli an Admin so that he could act as Lobby Opener and Session Starter tomorrow before I came here. So now I need at least one or two other veterans to accept the invite so that I can make them Admins before I have to go out tomorrow evening. @Oltman, @DieGrootHammer, @DarthMol if any of you do manage to get in and accept the invite, please, please let me know ASAP so that I can make you Admins. I’ll be in and out through most of the day tomorrow.

Sorry to hear that Soli. Just shout if we can support in any way.

Here’s the settings for the MEW F1 v2 Season that starts with Race 1 in Melbourne Australia tomorrow night.




The first session should start by 8:30PM SAST / 7:30PM CET, unless all the drivers confirmed for the night are in the lobby and ready to go earlier than that. Please use the Race Radio voice channel or the MEW F1 race text channel on the Discord Server if you can. It’s a huge help in coordinating when everyone is ready to race, or when to start the next session. Or to let other know if you’re having internet or electricity issues.

I haven’t completely decided how we should handle points score by AI Substitute drivers this season. Trying to change the points last year was a complete balls-up. I do think that we need to apply some sort of penalty though, so I’m going to investigate possibly applying grid penalties for the next race, or will have to revert to the good old fashioned Excel manual sheets again.

Again, sorry for bailing so last minute. I’ll definitely try pop in to Discord to say “howzit bruhs” if I can grab a moment. And I will be reviewing @Oltman’s stream to check for any shenanigans! Olt has also just gone and sorted the Admin issue, so he will be your Race Director for tomorrow.

Race on!!
