Sorry, drop me from the tournament. I don't play DC like I used to anymore. :/
Are you sure? You aren't obligated to compete so don't worry about that...I can stop sending you each week's invite if you would like however. 👍

Hmm, you can still send me invites, it's just I may or may not participate as I'm not on my PS4 as much
 
Regarding Season 2, I've had a change of heart around how I want to do things so I don't know if I will have an update this week. Sorry everyone!
 
man it's so hard to do clean fast laps in BHR, and you picked night time AND rain too :) it's always a lottery the two esses as you have to pick them juuust right to be able to 4-wheel drift the second part of the chicane without going out, so nasty

I second that! :boggled: Perhaps I'll give it another shot with all brightness settings turned up so I can see more than just the tail lights! You're evil, @Brend.
 
The final half of this series' will push your insanity, thats for sure. ;)

as long as you don't do it like whatever that stars thing was where it was basically a whiteout blizzard at night and you had to drive from memory... insanity ok, but that becomes a bit too luck based :)

that or you could do instead of a time trial a 25-lap race ;) did you see kie's video to prove that the AI does not cheat where in 15 laps he lapped all of them? that was interesting, otoh maybe I shouldn't give you ideas...

Ooo that sounds good! Consistency rather than good lap times.. Interesting.

yeah, especially with tracks like BHR where getting a super fast run through the esses is also due to some luck it'd be nice to see who is able to keep it together for 20 laps ;) it was nice the one week where there were "endurance" races in multiplayer (they were 8 laps instead of 4 iirc) but unfortunately that's never been done since I don't think, can't wait for private rooms!

My friend loved those enduros and hasn't touched the game online since they disappeared. :lol:

The problem with introducing new event types is that you can presume that it comes with a less fruitful grid. Under the current set-up people can jump on, do a lap or two and then get on with what they wish to do on their Playstation/in their life. You introduce a 20 lap epic and there could be some low competitor numbers which I'm sure everyone agrees isn't an ideal scenario.

Its one of the reasons why my initial S2 idea has went on ice, I will have more on that front soon though.
 
Would love to be in on this - a bit late in the season now though - should I wait until Season 2 starts?

You can jump in whenever! It might be a bit late to win the overall championship but there is no cut-off for competition and it helps me deal with larger competition field stat tracking. :D

I'd love to have you in on the action!

Hey, are you wanting this event sent you Nato? I noticed you sent me a FR the other day.
 
I was hoping you would doze off. :lol: Good round anyway.
To be honest, when i checked on the challenge it had 45 odd minutes left, i then had something to eat and i finished with 30 mins on the clock left. So lucky chance lol. And yes good round :)
