Sorry for the lack of comms y’all - been stupid busy with RL stuff lately. Hopefully things will settle down a little from next week.
First off… I have recreated the league season and re-invited everyone to it. As usual, check your in-game mailbox for the invite, or search for the league by name (MEW F1 - 2020 Season) or by Access Code (CM#_6Z8VML). @SlinX - did you ever pick up the game? Did not find you in my list. Let me know when you have and I’ll drop a league invite to you too.
Have kept all the league and race settings exactly the same as before (up there if you need a reminder) and again, if a couple of the old hands could join the league ASAP so that we can have a couple of Admins in place in case anything goes wrong for me on race days, that would be appreciated.
Voting for this week’s race day was at an impasse - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday all even at 62%, so I’ve applied for Special Dispensation from the Director of Familial Social Affairs - aka Mrs. Redd - and have been given permission to skip our Thursday evening commitment and go racing instead.
So, officially… the MEW F1 - 2020 Season will kick off (again!) with the Australian Grand Prix this Thursday evening with Practice to start at 8:30PM SAST / 7:30PM CET (or earlier if all are in the lobby). If you can’t make it, please do try to join the League before so that your AI Substitute driver can race for you.
On that point, unlike last year where half points for AI Subs caused major confusion, this season if your AI Substitute driver scores points for you in a race you will receive an inverse grid penalty + 5 positions for the next race. So if your AI wins in Australia you’ll get a 15 place grid penalty for the next race (10 for P1 + 5), if your AI finishes 10th, you’ll get a 6 place grid penalty for the next race (1 for P10 +5).
Thursday, January 30, 2020 6:30 PM ( TZ ) → Thursday, January 30, 2020 8:30 PM ( TZ )

Sooo no race today?
So far, the race is on. Will post here if something happens. If there is load shedding then @DarthMol and I will be out.

Stage 2 shedding affects me from 21:00 onwards, so if I suddenly drop out, you’ll know why. (Un)fortunately the schedule isn’t very accurate for me, so there is a real chance that I’d be scheduled to drop off, but then… won’t. Although, now that I’ve jinxed myself…

Just my suggestion: Why we dont make it lets say saturday, sunday, or friday, even late night I dont mind, but all of us could race, because if we always miss maybe 2 people, than the whole season is deformed.
Or we create some sort of race by race format.

If only it was that easy, we all have different schedules and no one knows for sure what is up with the power.

People apparently have this thing “life” that they do on weekends, I’m not sure what that’s all about. I’m always down to game on weekends

Unfortunately it’s difficult with everyone being on different schedules. Last year we didn’t have as much trouble has we had this year. Unfortunately it’s just been a bad start to the year for South Africa with the power problems and the internet cable break.
