Codes

[OopsIDied]

Uhmm hi everyone. When I go to the rankings page for any track on gt4 and press start it gives me some codes. I was wondering if anyone knew what these are for?

The laptimes database portion is broken due to some programming issues. Unfortunately, time and m oney constraints mean that it is not likely to be working in the near future. Sorry for the inconvenience.

They were used, waaay back when GT4 was released, to submit laptimes to the official site (a codified version of your laptime, to confirm that you weren't just making it up). Doing so you could win something or other. Possibly.

But I've not heard of them being used in any other way or in the last 2 years.

The prizes included an all night massage by Famine and dinner for two with Duke, but those were also scrapped because of money constraints.

I actually got the "dinner for two" with Duke...I think we went to Wendy's I forget. It was disappointing to say the least, I was expecting something nice and fancy with real silverware and dudes with strange accents who ask to grind pepper on your food while you sit there. Oh well, life's a bitch.

...I passed on the night massage with Famine, tho.

Wasn't they cancelled due to ARMAX cheat discs and other making those tables pointless?
