PAPA MANGO'S REPORT
Where we goin now? Where we goin now? Give it away, give it away, give it away now. Give it away, give it away, give it away now, JUST BANG HEAD Bang yo' head until you start to Break yo' neck 🤬!!


Alright , alright . Time to get serious. Sunday has come and gone again and what a night it was. I read a post after the races about how we are gradually starting to respect each other more during races with less IRs. Let's keep it up. Accidents will happen and IRs will be filed but take it on the chin and use it to improve.

First of all, big appreciation to all the guys who filled the duties for their respective divisions and did we need the duty guys for D5 on Sunday. After doing some warm up races with the usual gentlemen I entered D5's official race room after clearing my cache.[ Guys we all know PSN has had issues last few weeks with connectivity but let's try to make life easier by clearing our chaches before entering race rooms-just a reminder]

By the start of the race, there were 14 competent drivers ready to do battle with each other and fight for every available inch of the track for position.
There were a few new faces in D5 with drivers like @Alex ONeill @Blackout_Nasseh @scorpionPHVH57 [IF I FORGOT ANY ONE ELSE MY MISTAKE] in D5 for the February season. Come voting time it came down to which round I fared the worst and not because it was not a fun combo;

I was going to do a running commentary of one of the combos but all the rounds were such fun picks that i finally ended up just mashing it all up together. The music was suggested by MAMA Mango [the wife]. It was not long enough for the video so I mashed that up too with an acapella version of linkin park's Numb' , Fal Out Boy's 'Immortals' and the instrumental version, The mango family enjoyed it and I hope you do too.

As there is no racing this Sunday hope this super bowl week end is a fun one for you all and till we meet on track again, stay blessed brothers

Great video.. re shared in Google Plus 👍👍👍

You did a good job. Hint: Round 2 Race 1: If a player did not complete the race, then just leave the cell empty. So you can delete the "1Lap"

Project cars does look pretty fun... ugh too many things to spend money on!

I think bouncing the car off the rev limiter every downshift isn't very healthy though

So how did that feel Mike, do you even notice the room spinning around you or does the three screens keep everything confined. I like the all molded shell, are those speakers coming out the sides at the back?

You do not get to go back and change your track selection 11 hours after the original choice was made. Your original selection will stand and is quoted above and that is the official prize A selection. The post in which you made that original selection has been returned to it's pre-edit version so as not to cause any confusion among the membership.

Can I get a bit of concession here. We tested the combo for 3 hours on reverse and I missed it. I was trying to use a track we haven't used I snail before. And it's an off week. I was trying to get the combo out early for everyone to have extra practice time.

Nice pick!

 

[Alex ONeill]

Nice pick!

We tested the track in reverse for hours last night and I forgot to add In reverse. I'm pretty bummed out now. I wanted to use a track the has never been used before.

 

[Whitey093]

It's good either way. Great pick!! I think forward is actually a bit easier to work in passing attempts so it all worked out in the end.

Why can't it be changed? You're the prize winner. It was a mistake. Not a change of mind.

It's the bowler typo's don't matter.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Ouch. That's a bit rough but okay. Definitely forward then?

It's stated pretty clearly how to post your choice and since it was made and not caught for many hours later, it's just not something we can change.

Because there is a procedure that we need to adhere to and if we don't then there won't be an ounce of organization of this league.

It's the bowler typo's don't matter.

This comment is completely unnecessary and not helpful to the topic or discussion in any way.

 

[Alex ONeill]

Just a question for you guys, if someone didn't specify forward or reverse of a track is it always forward then? Should I have been asked to specify rather than it being assumed? If one is specifically forward and the other is specifically reverse then i just didn't specify. Well i guess i'll just have to wait until i win a prize A again to run the combo I actually wanted.

I hope everyone enjoys the combo!

 

[DesertPenguin09]

For what it's worth, forward is still a lot of fun and hasn't been used in a long time.

IMPORTANT: When posting your Prize A or Prize B selection, please list the complete in-game name of the car and/or track you are selecting. For example, if you want to select the Amuse Superlegara for your car, post "Amuse Nismo 380 RS Superlagara". If you want to select Monza for a track, post "Autodromo Nazionale Monza". This makes it much easier for the lineup to be updated accurately and also prevents confusing other league members as to which car or track you are selecting. Also, please be sure to list the PP and HP (after oil change) of any car you select.

The rule is stated here. Rules and organization are what make SNAIL work. It won't work if we make exceptions and don't adhere to the rules as a group.
I understand why you may be disappointed but I don't think there is any reason to complain to anyone who works hard to make SNAIL happen. I don't doubt you can win again and you won't forget to spell it out accurately next time.

I wasn't complaining and if it came across that way I apologize. I was just asking the question that's all. I'll run whatever and I'll be much more specific next time.

As a new member of SNAIL, I'm really enjoying it and I'm not here to cause any problems or issues.
