Mischief
What was that about? I assume that whatever our Super Mod mod just did also broke my shortcut to our thread.. I was a bit worried when I got "thread doesn't exist"!

Did I miss something exciting?

YAAAAAAAYYY!!! :D


Oookkkay.. too much sugar for me.. :odd:

Well.. I must say, that was a far less interesting explanation than I was expecting but fair enough!
 
I moved my PS3 over to the temporary apartment I am staying at for the next two weeks. I will try to get time to update the friends list to the current front page and get some races in. My computer is in a different room. After the 12th though I can't garentee I can grind until I move to my new apartment.
 
I can't seem to log in granturismo.com and the widget is also stating "temporary server issue" (US servers)

Try the singapore server. I switched to it from US server about an hour ago when "temp server issue" cropped up. The magic number is 11611.

Im just getting around to using the remote races, got my widget up and running. A few weeks ago I cleaned out my PSN friends list and now I only have 2 friends who have GT5...I figure im not making the most of my remote races.
I know Ill never get around to running the game for every day like some here, I figure I can average 8h nights 2-3 nights a week. anyone point me in the right direction?

We'll give you a chance here as well, the more you race, the more you will be raced, as we use reciprocate.

please follow the first post and get grinding. :)

Excellent! 👍
 
I have requests out to everyone, got about 1/3 added already(been grinding those for a day or so already), i think there was 1 or two that had reached the max friends list, ill check tonight after work.

Question, the "always use" or "reciprocate" settings. On the frontpage it says use reciprocate, but how does that work? shouldnt i start people in in "always use" first? or will it race people from the reciprocate list even if those people havent reciprocated me?

Use Reciprocate. Even though you haven't raced all, they will pick your drivers to fill full grids, same as you will.

So it all works out in the end. :)
 
If there's no one to reciprocate it will just race a random in place. The reason always use isn't used I presume is due to it's nature to sometimes not race a person from that list.

Yet the other list will always have a selection pulled from it and will attempt to reciprocate those which have raced you more than just randoms.

I was finding that in reciprocate mode, i wasnt getting a full field, usually 2-3 racers(and its not due to unavailable drivers), but on always, I get the full 12(or 16, whatever it is)

Frason I keep getting told:
