Will do so. 👍


jswills, I can't send you PM's since you've disabled them.

Thats odd, I have everything checked to enable it unless the box is supposed to be unchecked? I reverified the settings and saved them again. Can you try an PM me again, if not no biggie I plan on being there tomorrow.

I think the box is supposed to be unchecked. Just try it out. Message showed up with,

"jswilli1 has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her.

If you are trying to send this message to multiple recipients, remove jswilli1 from the recipient list and send the message again."


A new car rule guys, bring anything you like just make it fair.

May I just reiterate that me and turbo will be communicating through msn, and thus when races are held, we will split up and go to our start/finish points respectively. I will start each race once 2 people have lined up infront of me so one will drive past me either side at the start of the race. I will then put my high beams ON as a 'ready' and the second those highbeams BEGIN to go OFF is when the race is go. Turbo will then judge finish line to remove lag arguments, and I will notify of jump starts should i need to.

I believe races will be held up and down the sewers in Downtown, correct me if I'm wrong Turbo.

Yes and, I was planning to have one race there and another across town aswell. The sewers race will only say who's is the fastest car.

No. I can't tell you where it ends, or everyone will start making up routes

 

[JonesyGT246]

Ah. By the way, I'll add you when I get online, which should be around 5 minutes before 2300 GMT.

The earlier the add, the better. Remember to give me about a 5-10mins window for the invite time, I'm only going to start sending invites at 2300.

 

[jswilli1]

I am online and you can send the invite whenever.

 

[Turbo Lag]

I'm going to make a private game for all of us. No noobs involved then.

 

[Legendary]

Right I'm online now

 

[jswilli1]

I also have my mic on

 

[GBWH1991]

Will this be a regular thing? I can't make this one, but maybe another time?

 

[Turbo Lag]

Im coming now, just like 2 mins!

Robin.

 

[Turbo Lag]

Ok hurry!

 

[Dragonistic]

Looks like im screwed, can't keep connected, just keeping DCing everytime. Have fun guys if I can't get this sorted.

 

[Turbo Lag]

Everyone just got DC/ed, we're going to re-send invites now.


Christhedud isnt' coming, he's too busy. Sorry to him.

 

[Dragonistic]

Now who wan't read the brief a page back for racing? hmmm? highbeams on = READY, highbeams off = GO. It was supposed to be one on one also

 

[JonesyGT246]

I lost my connection. Despite that, I had a good time. We should do it again.

 

[Legendary]

Great fun, hopefully we do it on a fortnightly basis?, Perhaps on the weekend for us aussies though because of school on Tuesday etc.

 

[Turbo Lag]

Was ok today, before everyone started DC/ing . Still, more people came than expected. Hope we can have a meet sometime again soon.

 

[Dragonistic]

I think it was pretty successful to, it wasn't the plan for me to host but somehow, somehow my connection took the strain as best could be expected from my reasonably slow net. Sorry to Danjama who couldn't get in (dont worry it's only cus I ended up hosting that I got in!) and thanks to everyone who was ready on time, even if they couldn't get in for various reasons. Communication was difficult at times, so after the failed 'street racing' attempt we just kept it simple with challenges, I thought if we threw in a CTF as well it could keep you all interested somewhat (and yes I did steal my own teams flag so YOU couldn't get it blue team ! ). Great sight in my mirror when i was leading you guys around in formation, even if there was some bumping and paint swapping!

Careful on the leadfoot though sometimes, if we're going fast notice we always waited up before we got to far ahead? We ended up all getting lost from me because I couldn't catch some people and you all went the wrong direction after not knowing it was infact someone else. Minor niggle though, it all went pretty smoothly considering.

 

[jswilli1]

I had a great time guys, we will definetely have to do it again. More people than I expected also, but it made it that much better. There were about four of us with headsets and the communications were great. I knew that Dragnostic was trying to align us for a race down in the LA river, I noticed his headlights on. I think setting up a race works the best, but I think only 8 people can run at a time? I chose to stick with the Ford GT (I spent 3hrs doing the graphics for Gran Turismo 04 Ford GT LM) for this cruise. You guys are definetely "More Difficult" than the AI in the game, all we need to do is setup some races where we are in identical cars and "get it on".👍

I added all you guys to my friends list and hope to see you around MCLA soon. at least until GT5 comes out....​

 

[danjama]

yea im sorry i couldnt stay connected man maybe i can host next time and see if we have better luck! But anyway im glad it sounds like you had a good time in the end, luckily i ended up meetin energiya and having a few races on ferrari challenge which was great but he is pretty fast, my lap times were always 1+ seconds slower apart from monza i think where the difference was 7-10ths Shame about the MCLA going wrong for me i was well wired for it after work! Also changed my Evo gfx oh well ill be online 2moro anyway!

 

[Legendary]

I jst thought it was AWESOME when we all went single file down the carpark, looked so realistic and cool.

Yep. It was fun leading everyone down like that

 

[Legendary]

I think it would have been so mad if the whole cruise part was like that.

Can I just say that we need to drive in a more ordered fashion. Like in two lines or something, the getting smashed and spun out part wasnt really fun.

It didn't help with you behind randomly smashing into me when I was braking. I kind of sped up out of corners because I knew everyone would kill each other then, nobody really stuck to their lanes.
