I just PMed Earth complete Group C results, so they should be up shortly.

NOTE: Suzuka #1 was never made up. Both makeup times, the host quit. It's 10:17 right now, so hopefully kart racer, vanos, and Brakefade are running it now. Personally, I can't take it anymore.

 

[Threshold]

So for group C only HSR and Fuji count?

Here's how I finished

HSR: 5th
Fuji 1: 1st
Fuji 2: 1st

Right, but we only count finishes against other tournament racers. So for HSR, you were actually 4th.

I'll give up the points I can't take it anymore either.

Just think, only a couple of years until you can teach him how to use a driving wheel!

Seriously, though, congratulations!

[NapoleonMikey]

congrats man make sure you make that boy into a great racer

 

[Chadwicksracing]

disconnection at suzuka while going into the last lap, figures ;-/

Get the positions you all were in before the disconnect on the last lap

Use that for the scoring. At least this way you get points for almost finishing the race.

 

[91hondawagon]

Since Earth is nowhere to be found, here are the complete Group C results (minus the Suzuka #1 makeup-makeup-makeup (!) race)

Never mind, Earth has posted them below.

I'm pondering the future of this tournament

Group B had 7 disconnections in a row at Suzuka. The first 5 races at 16 players and disconnected after a few turns. The last 2 had only 11 but still disconnected before the end.

I'm already asking gentlemen to take one hour and 15 minutes out of their lives to run this and when the game has 16 player races that it cannot handle there are disconnects and they have to take more time out of their lives to try and rerun the race.

The online mode is broken. Forget punters who by the way have left 750pp and taken over 600pp (especially Suzuka) because they realized their AWD wonders are more competitive there then in 750pp and it's easier to drive, the online mode has more problems then that. Quitters ruin races and I don't think I've ever seen a race with a large number of participants that didn't start to lag horribly or eventually get cancelled.

It looks like Group A and C had decent races but everyone struggled with the Suzuka races.

To me this is just depressing. Right when you think you have failsafe rules the online mode falls flat on it's face and destroys everything.

I don't know. Maybe just throw Suzuka out the window and move on?

 

[bbcnascar2]

GTP_bbcnascaR2 - I'm so sorry about that rub in dunlop lap #2 should have seen you there, I waited while your penalty ran down, hope I didn't ruin your race too much.

No problem,there was plenty of other GTP_members that nocked me right out,first comes to mind is Suzuka first turn GTP_member outside of me and a GTP_member come in the inside to make it three wide.Needlees to say i end up in the sand.

 

[bbcnascar2]

Hey earth,
7 disconnects,I thought we were waiting for the make up races if they got dissconnected?

Come to the Chat and we will talk about it..

 

[cudadude2]

Personlly i think these races are great. I've met and coresponded with more GTPers in the last three weeks than i have in the 4-5 years i've been comming here. For me its not just about the racing. the rcing is the vehicle to the good folks here. just my opinion.

b

oh and i'm winning... ;-)

 

[bbcnascar2]

One make up race suzuka was me 1st and Kumabar 2nd

Hey, I can't agree with you more. I think things are going great.. Disconnects..hah, obviously Earth has not been to PP750 races in a while..

And the hacks moving on the Suzuka? H3$$ no, I raced at Suzuka and HSR in PP750 a few days ago and it was way worse than PP600.. Hah, moved on?


ah and I am wining the ones you didn't lol Or I come in second..which happens a lot

 

[91hondawagon]

I don't know. Maybe just throw Suzuka out the window and move on?

Or perhaps take another step down, to PP500. Other than that, I don't see how Suzuka can work. I did well overall in the tournament, but the points simply aren't worth the headache that came from "You have been disconnected from the server" message tonight. If the fall update doesn't have private rooms, I honestly don't think I'll be able to play GT5 anymore. At all.

 

[OrangeR]

One make up race suzuka was me 1st and Kumabar 2nd

There was GTP_ noah there too he finished 2nd me 3rd (after that subaru took me out on Casio GRRRRR)
