Qualifying deadline -
8.00 UTC/1.00PDT
Qualifying deadline is the point at which you can no longer enter a qualifying room in order to set a time. All that is required for you to meet deadline is for a driver to actually be in the room before deadline, after this (due to high volume of late qualifiers) drivers in the room all have a 30 minute last-second grace period in order to do their runs.


Your the one who said it

Pure gets messier by the day.

Dude you said something when I late q'd. So I started in the back. No late q

Maybe let me edit a post when I have to because you edited yours before getting upset...

Of course a link to the conversation would have been optimal, but you're right. I totally forgot, and as I see it that probably wasn't even the intention of that rule.
Fair is fair, I'll start from the back then.

Maybe having the "rules" hidden and buried doesn't help us in these situations?
 
Right on I'm just trying to stick with what was sai and not flip flop. Yeah was page 84. You'll still get past all that your faster than I'm sure.

For the last two rounds, we had people late Q with a 2% penalty added if it was clean.

There are no penalties listed for the last 2 rounds

I'm just kidding with you. :)

I did look and don't see them, I'm not too worried about the whopping 3 positions it could leave me to gain at best anyway really.
I think it serves us the benefit of posting the rules in the OP instead of offsite.

Don't forget the important later part though Will

This was round 1, we also allowed late qualifying in round 5.
Somewhere in the thread Eddie said it will be the same Q rules as CALM and JGTS.
It looks like the rules weren't updated though.

I assumed it was, he probably just missed it in a copy and paste.👍

So why exactly you did start from the back I've no idea.
I guess that's why I couldn't remember telling you you couldn't, because I didn't. ;)
 
To be honest, I thought there were two deadlines.

Essentially, one "standard deadline" in which people could qualify normally, and a second deadline in which people would qualify with 2%.

Of course, I don't remember exactly since I always qualify on friday or before. I remember something about this supposed second deadline being a couple of hours before connect time, or something like that?

A staggered double-file line is used for our rolling start for the first lap after which the race will begin at the start/ finish line.

( First time pole sitters will be contacted for confirmation of the following regulations)
  • Pole sitter will begin on the left side of the track.
  • Even number position qualifiers will be on the right side lane of the formation. Odd number qualifiers will be in the pole sitters lane on the left side.
  • Once the GT5 race countdown has completed and the race event has begun all drivers must hold position and wait for confirmation from the host to proceed. Use your handbrakes, sit silently, report any suspicious latency between cars or lag jolting/skipping. After the host has given the go ahead all drivers will begin to slowly form up in qualifying order. The leader must act as gatherer, they must not pre-maturely advance from the group, it is their job to keep the pace slow enough until all cars are in position then proceed to formation speed.
  • Even pace at 100 kmh / 62 mph,
  • The pole leader must wait for the grid to line up behind them completely on the start straight before starting the race by applying full throttle at the start/finish line.
  • No weaving is allowed during formation lap.
  • You must not overlap the car ahead of you.
  • Do not pass any car until you're past the point the pole sitter started the race at.
  • Jump starters will be given warnings or penalties depending on severity.
  • If a driver is damaged on formation then the damaged driver must communicate this through text chat and continue at a reasonable speed to the pit area. The other cars will continue on as normal and the damaged car(s) can join the group as they come around for their first lap. At this point the formation lap will continue on for a second lap after which the race will begin. If it happens once more, the same contingency will be applied and a third formation lap will go on. After this, no more "formation restarts" will be acceptable and the affected drivers must either retire or start far behind the group. Drivers experiencing extreme lag will be asked to leave so the other drivers can race.
  • If, for any reason, a driver misses the formation start and stays behind still on the track the race will not go on, it must be restarted to eliminate the obstacle.

Yeah when I late q'd round 7, I didn't know. So when CSL wrote something about a deadline I took it as no. Csl's post didn't say hey Will late q is ok. He went and found a post that showed a deadline. Then in the room round 7, Da6 said hey will why are you starting in the back. I said no late q. Not even then did anyone say, hey will it's ok. So this confirmed no late q to me.

Really I dont mind!
 
Can't we just all agree that late q's are a good idea and should be allowed? And that Will's round 7 must be have been a mistake/misunderstanding, and that is too bad (really), but it should be part of standard rules to allow it?
 
I agree late q's should be fine. BUT there should be a penalty for it. Otherwise, I decide to qualify 10 minutes before connect time and it would count the same. And I'm not happy with that.

100% agree here. 👍

I have the time to do my Q right now, but that would definitely be unfair to do it cause everyone else done it before the deadline. Everyone have a whole week to submit a Q time so i think it's fine to give a penalty for late qualifiers. There's a deadline, and this deadline isn't here for nothing, right?

We already know he simply missed the follow-up posts, so it's a non-issue to me.

2% penalty has been the standard, why we're talking about whether that's "fair" I don't know.
 
Well, we had a fine room, everyone was in and fine, but since we're always making multiple rooms and delaying races until someone can't get in, I guess it's my turn today.
Too bad we can't run things smoothly like the original guys from Pure. :(
 
Anyone object to me hosting the room?

Just Feed me specs to change and we be smooth.

Don't think anyone has issues when I do.
 
Yeah.
Resetting rooms usually doesn't help guys, hopefully Jeff's works well, be there in 3
 
Reasonably certain it's me and Ren's connections having a fight again.
Nothing to do about it, have fun guys.
 
Sorry guys. Did not enjoy this at all. I mean, this is a hugely long race, no reason for everyone to drive like maniacs.
 
Adventuruss
Well, my race is done. My car decided to default to comfort soft tires for the race. :(((

Room resets tend to do that. :indiff:

:lol: jk, of course. But no, you can actually win these in the first couple laps, FYI. :P
 
I apologize to GV for ruining the race. I couldn't see anyone coming and wanted to get out of the way and park in the pits. I made a bone head move. Sorry.
