A question to the registration: Is a Discord account requiered this time if i just want to do the TT?

That wasn't the case last year, wasn't it? Because i don't have Discord, not even shure what this is about, but participated in round zero.

Yes it is required. As soon as you sign up, discord channels will be added to your account.

To simply run the time trial from the game, it isn't needed.

You do. Division 2 places are drawn from a raffle among all participants. The top 24 spots in each platform (plus the two "golden ticket" winners) go in Division 1; everyone else goes into a raffle for Division 2.

I imagine that there's a cutoff somewhere, but you don't need to be in the top echelon.
I remember in season zero there was some speculation that they would choose people with some following on social media (they ask for your social media handles).

Not sure if that's the case or if they just pick from the gold drivers so it is not an embarrassment or so they can have a chance when competing with division 1 drivers if promoted.

Either case I am screwed because I'm neither an influencer or a gold driver, I couldn't even get silver last time 🤣

EDIT: Is there any legal definition for the term "raffle" in the terms and conditions of this kind of competitions? Like they should be able to prove is 100% random or is it just one of those legally void words.

The AMG VC Race Control confirmed a few days back that those who range from 0.1s to 5s could be raffled for Div 2. They seem to include every profile which is registered on Discord and SimGrid.

There were D and C rated drivers in Div 2 last year.

As @A_Higher_Place said...

I am still a C rated driver as I hate doing the daily races due to the dive bombing, so don't have the intention to improve my rating.

I still got in through the raffle last year, although I did have a gold time.

But again, on Discord they have confirmed that the raffle is for everyone that has set a time in the TT.
