hi all, last race this Sunday was very poor on the number of racers. We only had 6 at the start.. We, the admin, would really like to know why !!!! This can not continue like this !! As said before.. we do not put all that energy into something to start with only 6 racers and 4 to finish !! Therefore .. we will start with the penalty rule next race. Like in a real competition subscribed racer have to join the race or face penalties of some kind. Therefore we will give a 10 point penalty for every race that is not joined by the racer. We hope this will have a positive reaction on the leaders of this league to join more races in the future. And again, we ask to you all ... What is going wrong.. why do we see those little number of racers now ?? Hope to see a lot of positive reactions and a lot of ideas to put some live in here before it bleeds to death

some combo are just less popular than others I suppose. could you add motivations rather than penalties? like extra point for all races ? it would look more positive.
promotion ideas ? need help with the liveforspeed.be page? post on other forums? promotion ideas anyone?

some combo are just less popular than others I suppose. I know, but at least people can try, I also believed it was a to slow car for the oval.. but it was a tricky one. And with enough people around you very excited! could you add motivations rather than penalties? like extra point for all races ? Do you mean at the end of the season count the number of participations and give 10 extra points on the finishers and 5 to the DNF's ?? maybe also not such a bad idea, that should also keep racers on track instead of giving up.. need help with the liveforspeed.be page? quote] I hope to put it on-line in May. then I have some days off. Then I can create administrators for the website. Completely made in Joomla!. So admins will be able add articles, pictures and maintain the website.

yes, maybe an extra point for every race attented ? and an extra point for every race finished (that would make us all more cautious at turn 1 ) you can't really blame people for DNF when they crash or get disconnected or have a birthday party that night but it would be "nice" to encourage people to take part to every race, even the less exciting ones and cheer them rather than punish.

this being said, I'm sorry but if there IS a test race this sunday I won't be able to join. I'm starting the work in the new (yet to be) house and my co worker who is also a friend who is also an eletrician is spending the night here. so no more LFS till monday night
