ok, i'll add the post incentive rule to the first post.

however, the rule only comes into effect when we finalise the drivers, otherwise the late-comers would be at a dis-advantage.

 

[Gaurav_7]

That would be spam

Yeah, sure it will be. The rule doesn't apply yet though, Mark.

 

[harrisb]

check the first post for full clarification on the post incentive rule.

those increases and decreases may not seem much, but they can make a big difference if you consistently post say 10/15 posts every race.

 

[Dutch]

Well if post incentive is going to determine the outcomes, Mark is going to win each race by about 6 laps!!

 

[harrisb]

not neccessarily, he hasn't posted that much.

however, if he posts more than anyone else, he's already got a decent car, so he may well win it.

i feel that the post incentive rule needs to be changed slightly to give an incentive to pick a lesser team such as Lotus/Virgin/HRT/Sauber.

so each team will have a different post incentive rule advantage.

Red Bull: 1 Post = 0.01
Ferrari: 1 Post = 0.01
Mclaren: 1 Post = 0.015
Mercedes: 1 Post = 0.015
Sauber: 1 Post = 0.025
Williams: 1 Post = 0.02
Renault: 1 Post = 0.02
Force India: 1 Post = 0.02
Toro Rosso: 1 Post = 0.025
Lotus: 1 Post = 0.03
Virgin: 1 Post = 0.03
HRT: 1 Post = 0.035

So the faster teams have to post more to get even quicker, whereas the slower teams don't have to post quite as much to get a quicker time.

I think this is a fair resemblance of the teams performance, and could see us get some very interesting results.

forgive me my igonorance but what kind of things will I need to post here for them not to count as spam. how do you determine a useful post and a non-useful post. Can you give an example?

 

[harrisb]

i don't know how to explain it, but if somebody says 'that will be classed as spam then' that would be a spam message.

you kind of just know if a message is written as a message, or if it is somebody just messing around.

What I am getting at I suppose is why do you want to give people an incentive to post here? What is the deal?

Because if your thread has more posts it means your penis is huge

Ah, now I understand why my threads are always so small....

yeah, batracer is great, but they haven't got f1 2010 up and going yet, and they had a few copyright problems last year, so it's all unlicensed now.

thanks for signing up treva

Ahh what a bummer. We've had a few fun seasons on there. They still got licensing for the retro games? That could be fun.

Ah I miss Batracer! Haven't played since the last series we guys had. I'm game for another series if people are interested.

GO GG!! Mercedes will rock

ok, so longlegs takes ferrari, and kiko joins abhas to form a truly awesome line-up at ferrari.

You mean Mercedes

Not a great fan of post incentives, but I don't mind. Anyway I don't really think we've got a chance of winning

Meh, I lose interest in leagues after the first few rounds anyways. Plus what am I going to post?

"wow Good job?"

"i did well"

I find it a bit weird when people comment on their "performances" in sim leagues.

 

[harrisb]

tbh, it's to try and encourage people to take the smaller teams, the faster teams at the front of the field won't really notice the difference, but the teams at the back will benefit from it.

more people are still needed.

and i've just had a look on Batracer, they've made F1 2010, and F12010 private games should be up on there soon, so i might be starting that one soon and ending this.

it's a shame that they released so soon after me creating this, because i think this really does have potential.

if you guys still want this competition to run, i'll continue it, but i feel more people will be attracted to Batracer as they know it's a competition that will be more reliable.

Give it a go. Why not, nowt to lose.

This seems interesting, I am in. Although I think it would be better if you sorta make the stronger players (the ones who do know much more about it) with the weaker ones (eg ME).

From what I understand, we do nothing but pray and spam constructively?

Also what is Batracer :o ?

Oh, I need to take a car, I take Lotus, so we can atleast have 5 teams
