I have been putting the word 'only' in the title of the room (eg; SNAIL only D3 R1 R1) and it has helped keep the random count down. Still get the ones who cannot read though

We also did that in D2 after seeing your message. I think it helps and most get the hint after the 1st message.... there are a few that just don't and like the 'Golden Boot of Motorsports'.
 
@MadMax

Apologies but i am new to hosting, was having difficulties on my end making sure i was doing everything correctly and we had issues in the room right off the bat with people not seeing each other. I wanted to keep things on track and gave you plenty of opportunity to leave at your own volition but sunday night is hard enough as it is.

If you just want to watch i would recommend uploading our replays after the night since we download them all to the server or just find a live stream, many guys have one. If you do end up joining snail you wont want to wait to race because the host is stuck arguing with randoms all night, you will want the night to move on efficiently so you can get to bed at a decent time.

Again, nothing personal but please consider how hard it is for us already and how poor the gtsport servers are which leads us to be very cautious with hiw we operate. Hopefully private rooms will be fixed soon at will end up being a moot point.
 
Server problems , cannot upload replays.Will try later.


edit: Still cannot upload replays,,,,is anyone else having this problem?

I was having this problem after racing my first night in racing. When i came back on a few hours later, they were able to upload. I was getting the same message of saying "problem communicating with the server" or something along those lines. Now they upload with no issues.

The round that received the most elimination votes was:
Round 1 - CHEVROLET CORVETTE STINGRAY CONVERTIBLE (C3) 1969 (SM) at Autódromo De Interlagos - 08:30 Clear (6 laps)
Therefore the entire combo has been dropped from next week's line-up. Since @fzappa wins Prize A, he gets to choose an entirely new car and track combo to replace it.

The round that received the second most elimination votes was:
Round 3 - VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE GR.3 (RH) at Dragon Trail - Seaside - 10:00 Fine Weather (7 laps)
This means either the car or the track will be replaced for next week's line-up. Since @TVV0_ gets Prize B, he has the option to freeze the car or the track, or he can give that option to the Prize C winner. If he gives the freeze away, then he gets to decide what car or track replaces the part of the combo that is left unfrozen by the Prize C winner.

Prize C goes to @Rednose58 so he gets whichever option the Prize B winner does not select.

Preliminary prize winners, please don't announce your prize selection until all incident reports have been filed and it has been confirmed that you don't have any penalties. It's also recommended that you review the SNAIL combo history and other data on our car and track history so that you can get an idea how many times we've raced each car and track. Please remember that originality is always appreciated, so picking cars and tracks that we've never raced is a plus (but not required). What's more important is that you thoroughly test any combo that you are considering before making it your official selection. For example, any car you select should not hit its rev limiter at any point during a race (even in the draft).

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.

Car Selection Guidelines
See Section 3 of the SNAIL OLR, Policies and Guidelines.

Track Selection Guidelines

I have the replays and they all work. I know @JLBowler wants them titled a certain way. I can't find the post with the info. Let me know and I'll share them.

All replays must be shared in game and be "tagged" under search tag #1 using the following naming convention: YYYYMMDDdxrxrx To break that down YYYY = year of race, MM = month of race, DD = date of race, dx = division#, rx = round#, rx = race#. An example of this would be 20171203d1r3r2 = 2017 Dec. 3 Division 1, Round 3, Race 1.
 
And we need those replays from D3 ASAP as prizes will be held up until reviews from D3 can be completed. Usually, as long a division is attempting to get the replays taken care of, the 8PM ET deadline has a little leeway to it. In this situation, the replay uploader has been having some issues with getting the replays shared (they won't upload). Time is of the essence now and D3 must have their replays shared no later than 10 AM ET tomorrow morning (Tuesday). If they are not shared and tagged properly at that time, D3 will be ineligible for prizes this week and we will skip to the next division.

Currently tracking 7 Incident Reports
We have at least one prize winner with a racing incident being investigated by the stewards. This may, obviously, change the order of the prizes to be selected. All winners are asked to refrain from making selections until the Weekly Steward's report has been posted.
The target deadline for the Steward Reviews, this week, is Wednesday night by 10PM Eastern. The Steward Summary will be posted as soon as possible, following completion of reviews.
:@: SNAIL Stewards, please make your way to The Incident Review Scoring.​
The IR Submission Form is now closed.

All potential prize winners will be included in a conversation in the next few minutes.

Hey all you Snails.
I just wanted to post this to show what you have been missing in GTS. The weather and live track features on PCars2 are amazing. The first race starts with a snow covered track that gradually clears up and provides the grip we want. Race two is a snow covered track in heavy snow that gradually gets deeper every lap. The best is the last race in the heavy rain where puddles form and affect the balance of the car. It could be pouring on one side of the track and no rain on the other.

The Lobanaro Lounge is proud to be Snail affiliated and is the largest PCars2 thread on GTPlanet. We run two groups of cars for our races. The fast guys get the faster cars and vice versa. It's worked out well as we can have two races on the same track at the same time. What we want are alternates to fill in when our regular guys can't make it. There has not been a Monday where at least one alternate is not needed.
We run a very relaxed room and everyone in our lounge has something to offer. Personalities are more important than being super fast. I wake up every Tuesday with a sore stomach from laughing. Don't be scared of the tuning aspect, most of us change very little as the default tunes are pretty good.

Check us out if interested.
