GT6 'MY HOME' HUB: Awards time.

[photonrider]

A spot for all Dedicated Rabbit Hunters.

GRAN TURISMO 6 'MY HOME'
This is where we play the game.

NEW? Read up on the OP, and Posts#2,#3, and #4.

MISSION STATEMENT:

Spoiler

In this thread we take on Challenges against the AI and compete with ourselves, and each other, using the AI, as well as investigating the AI and its potential in full.
We utilise as many Offline in-game sectors as possible in the Challenges as well as in investigating and writing the story of the AI.
A secondary objective is to recognise the Masters of the Game, and bring them to the surface via the Challenges and the Wall of Fame where their accomplishments and the Rabbit Records obtained therewith will be enshrined.
The third objective is to bring members of GTPlanet together in a spirit of playful and healthy competition using GT6's My Home Dashboard and all it offers while in the company of fellow members.
The fourth objective is to bring together Beginners, Intermediates, and Experts at the game of Gran Turismo for the mutual benefit of all.

AI HUB Lore:​

The Whoosier Rule: "To each, their own."
The Whoosier Rule came about as a sign of respect for WhoosierGirl who proved the rule that Experts rule. So that Beginners, and Intermediates can also sometimes rule, the Experts teach, not compete.
Therefore 'To each their Own' briefly translates into a rule that does not allow Entrants in one Class to compete in another; Experts win Expert Awards, Intermediates achieve Intermediate Awards, and Beginners swipe Beginner Awards.
This does not mean that a Beginner cannot attempt to win an Expert Award, or vice versa. If they do, and win, and decide to keep the Award in that Class, they forfeit the right to receive Awards in another Class for that Round of Level Events.
Because - to each, their own.
The rule was named by soupcan and put into effect by photonrider.

VicReign Rights.
Players who have earned three or more trophies have these rights.
Only those with the rights seem to know exactly what they are. To others it's a complete mystery. In fact it seems like they've lost some rights, while yet being told that they have some sort of special rights.
The also have the right to be barred from certain events. that seems wrong but apparently it's right, because it is one of the Rights.
VicReign was to blame for this rightful wrong. Or wrongful Right. Whatever it was - it was him that started it, so they named the wrong after him - which made it right.


nowayback Clause.
This is the only Clause in existence that starts with a simple premise - when there's no way back, then there's only one way out, and that one way out is the nowayback Clause.
See how that works?
It means you can pass the buck, but a buck is a gift, and many people will be only too willing to take the buck if it sounds like there's no way back and that's the only way out. Or to put it another way you can gift your Design the Event Bonus to any eligible Player of your choice - as long as they have no way out.
It was named for nowayback because he did it first when he was supposed to do it and didn't, since he had no way out and gave it back.

MTM Cards:
Watch for these. While it was MTM79 who set the standard of trailing back to camp at the last moment with several humungous rabbit hides that upset the leaderboards (and therefore maintaining the suspense till the last moment) other players have also done this. We call these last minute 'upset' timesheets MTM Cards in honour of one of our longest-standing, prolific, and nigh-unbeatable players.]But, when MTM. himslef plays an MTM card it usually is a trump card - so if you are holding an MTM Card for the last moment make sure it comes up much bigger trumps.
Meanwhile, if you have a lower time, it may be good poker to throw that in and let everyone think that's all you have up your sleeve.


Other terms used:

The Golden Rule: "You never know with Rabbits."
Because right now - we don't. Not much anyway.

The Rabbitline:
The track that Rabbits take. Keep off it. Or be chomped on. Every Course has its own definite and peculiar rabbitline - these are the 'waypoints' for the AI. This is the fastest line that a given car can take on such a Course and is narrow at some stretches, while broadening at others where different cars may take slightly different lines due to suspension set-ups, breaking points, etc. Rabbits stick to this line unless challenged by a Player in some form or another, for instance speeding up behind the Rabbit, or approaching it threateningly. The Rabbit will then leave the line to challenge you, using optimum speed and differing lines in the attempt to slow you down, block you, shove you off-course by holding its line, or use aerodynamic forces to throw you off-track.
The rabbitline can be used to good effect by a Player if they have a clear course ahead of them; the rabbitline is the technical line around the course.

Rabbitionary
​

Bronze Bunnies: The Rabbits that get in your way middle of the pack.
Carrots: A Rabbit Hunter's secret weapons. No one knows what they really are. That's why they are secret.
Gold Rabbits: You know who they are. Or you'd better find out.
Lead Rabbit: The Rabbit who is the fastest and usually on pole - though this may not be always the case. Some lead rabbits hide within the pack and only move to the front when the player pushes hard.
Lettuce Spray: When Rabbits secretly use NOS.
Rabbish. Rabbit thrash that litter the field and get in everybody's way.
Silver Tips: They vie for Gold and can upset Gold rabbits as well as you.
Stick: The opposite of Carrots. As in "I gave that Rabbit the stick and he bolted."
The Rabbithole: Sierra. Where else? Have you been down it?
Quantum Rabbits: You can know their position but not their velocity. Or you can know their velocity but not their position.

I have great faith in your prowess. Go get 'em, Tiger.

Thank you, appreciate the vote of confidence. One thing though...I'm a Ratt, not a Tiger.

The only vehicle restrictions are those outlined at the particular event itself.

All driving aids and all tuning options are allowed then?
This will work well on tracks where you can't cut corners, can't really cheat if everything is allowed.​

 

[croozer_63]

This all sounds pretty cool.....Unfortunately I don't know how to take pic at the end of race and upload it. Just an old school dumbass.....still, looks like a fun group to be in, good work.

 

[MTM79]

Like it very much. 👍 This is just how I like my seasonals, and now with a wall of fame.

These are just the kinds of things that make so great, adding value to our gaming experience.

I would think you most definitely have the skills of a good driver@GTP_CargoRatt - and that comes in very handy when trying to hunt rabbits.

One thing though...I'm a Ratt, not a Tiger.

Hey! You said it - not me. Now I'm glad I didn't say 'Break a leg!'

I like it @photonrider 👍

Thank you for the loan of that graphic - I needed one to start off the challenge, and I was reluctant to use all my own since that would have been a little too much blowing of my own trumpet.
I have this hunch, though, that you will never be beaten.
There is a possibility that someone may come up with an overall faster time for the event - (in fact I have already seen a faster overall time) but Papp's time might be slower - in which case you still win. The fastest Rabbit time is the goal. If someone wins with a blazing time that leaves Papp 30 secs behind - that still is not going to shift you off the Wall of Fame. Fastest rabbit time is what matters. We - and no doubt PD - want to see how fast these rabbits can run.
You have groomed Papp, trained him, and beaten his fastest.
You have crowned Papp.
I'm sure many are finding it a lot easier said . . . than done.

You hit the nail on the head - having all aids on (or off) doesn't really effect the outcome. Unless there is something we don't know about the way Rabbits react to our settings.
It's a level playing field. You might even say there is some 'luck' (whatever that is,) is involved - but then again, maybe not - mass amounts of Rabbit knowledge definitely should help.

This shouldn't be a problem at all - investigate GTPlanet's tech-support Forums (scattered here and there depending on what type of tech) and the answers will be there.
Some quick tips: any phone camera will take a decent picture of your PS3's screen readout, and so will any compact camera that has been stopped down. From there, uploading it to GTPlanet is basically a copy and paste of the pic's IMG link.
Uploading photos to the Internet is a way of life today - a major part of 'netting is sharing pics.
Get on board! We need you!

Like it very much. 👍 This is just how I like my seasonals, and now with a wall of fame.

These are just the kinds of things that make so great, adding value to our gaming experience.

When we had no online lobbies - in the dark, dismal days of GT3, GT4, etc . . . Forums were the only places we could go to to have shared fun, post our pics, challenge each other, etc, etc.
So online lobbies sort of made all that offline-challenge activity moot, but not really so.
Players always have ways of coming up with new ways to challenge ourselves.
I would also like to see some players - excellent drivers, passionate players, and true fans of the application - get some recognition in some way - not just through the international Leaderboards, but by some method that will boost them within the community itself.
Rabbit challenges are just the beginning to this phase.
Thank you all for the interest.

However . . . Hall90 is still up there flexing his biceps.
And, I have to admit, I was glad to see Papp thrashed - even doing his best.

 

[MTM79]

Went back to Papp for some more.

Good time, I wonder if Papp can get a time under 8:53.

 

[WhoosierGirl]

The fastest time for the second place car is the goal, not the fastest time or the widest margin of victory.

That would make the race on the right the better race, I'm just trying to make sure I understand this correctly.

 

[photonrider]

@WhoosierGirl - you are absolutely right. And fast! You beat Morvan at his fastest. Very busy right now (at work) but will be back later to pin your Rabbit's hide to the wall. Great work. You are a bona fide Rabbit Hunter.

This means I got to go back and whip Hirvonan. Grrrrrrr ......

Good fun . . .

D.Papp time is getting faster.

Sufferin' catfish, Hall, WTF are you feeding that poor animal?

Mr. Papp has gone rabid.

Still unable to get to a comp - posting off my little IPhone 6 - and the good Lord gave me sausages for fingers instead of toothpicks so it's a bit of a chore. Hopefully, I'll be able to fix the Challenge Board tomorrow. Events will be over soon so the final successful Hunters will have their trophy graphics up then.
Meanwhile I managed to snag the PS3 and led Morvan (who drives the Dino) a merry chase and got him upto 7:14:051 - a few hundredths behind WhoosierGirl's time, but for the moment she still has dibs on Morvan.

As for Papp . . . Actually I'm a little scared of him now. Is he frothing at the mouth?

To your Question perhaps MR.Papp see my car as a carrot and goes faster or he is one hell of a driver in that rocket, can he get a time under 8:50.

 

[photonrider]

Haha . . . Carrots!! Yes . . . A Rabbit Hunter's secret weapon.
You are doing a tremendously good job. 👍 Basically kick-started this whole thing off - many thanks.

If Papp breaks 8:50 . . .

A hunter has to do 8:50 including the handicap to beat him.
That's blazing fast. Papp's actual time is whatever he does plus the handicap though it doesn't show - he has quite a lead at the start.

I am going to try it now and see if D.Papp can go under 8:50, but with the other cars may get in the way it is going to be challenge.

 

[photonrider]

Very much so.
When we factor in that the lap-times involve driving through traffic, it's a helluva drive.
Polar opposite to claiming Pole at qualifying.

 

[CBH]

This is the first time I have seen D.Papp make a big mistake, it happen on lap 5 perhaps I was putting to much pressure on him to make that mistake.

 

[Jaywalker]

love it!

IIRC, someone out there drove Papp into playing in the sandbox - took a close-up and gave him a trollface. Hilarious.
As I mentioned before - if you drive him to go really, really fast - he widens his 'programmed circle' which gets him into trouble.

Papp meme needed now.

I guess I better get to work on that Wall . . . .

 

[Stotty]

If Papp breaks 8:50 . . .

Thought I'd have a go at 520 ppts with a bit of a tune. The race was pretty clean as you'd expect - contact with the AI just slows you down.

My lap times
1'33.946
1'31.930
1'32.292
1'32.914 (bit of traffic!)
1'31.788

Rocket lap times
1'45.876
1'49.334
1'49.517
1'41.788 (8s improvement )
1'37.000 (approximated from split times as replay cuts before he crosses the finish line)

The trick to getting 'D Papp' to go quicker is to pass him as quickly as you can... then he miraculously finds the throttle peddle and gets a wriggle on.

I reckon the 111r would set quicker lap times than the 190, and as such, would pass the Rocket earlier and pull him along to a faster time. Might even be possible to get him to run a 8'39.xxx using the 111r and a really good set up... the set up I put on the 190 was a quick guessed tune, and I think I could probably find 2-3s more in that with a better tune and more attempts.

 

[coryclifford]

8 second improvement is funny as heck.

I have not tried the 190 or the 111r but I will go for the 111r, and is it the 111r '04 ? Thanks

 

[Stotty]

I passed him on the back straight on lap 4... so he picked up another 5s or so in T1-T3 of the next lap

I have not tried the 190 or the 111r but I will go for the 111r, and is it the 111r '04 ? Thanks

Yes, the '04 111r... it's a faster car to start with and you get the benefit of a 6 speed 'box, so can run better ratios. I would expect it to be a second or so faster per lap than the 190 👍
