Come on, guys! Where are the other cars?!
I asked the same question by myself. It seems like everyone just suddenly lost interest to this challenge.
Sad times weāre living.
Iāve sat out nearly all the challenges so far because 1) school 2) time crunch 3) the ruleset doesnāt favour my limited building abilities
There will be a day when Iāll stop racing in this challenge, but today is not this day!!!
Huh? Why/what do you mean?
Just quoting Aragorn, in Lord of The Rings, hahaha
It was a month since the last challengeās results were posted (Oct 5th), and some people missed the current updated rules (that @HighOctaneLove posted 22 days ago) and had to start over building a different car. It took 13 days after HighOctaneLove updated his rules for @JohnWaldock to post a deadline. So there seems to be a good reason for people to have lost interest in this challenge.
Yeah, thatās true, the time can kill anything. But we canāt let it die, at least to me this is one of the funniest challenges of Automation Forum.
I suggest that as things are all over the place that this round is abandoned and to draw in more entries the ruleset is reworked ground up for Round 12 version 2 is this a good idea?
sorry about that, there was a lot of communication difficulties, and i posted a deadline as soon as i could, but was missed by @Darkshine5.
no one is to blame, it just fell apart, sadly.
Yeah, I didnāt even notice when it happened and then suddenly I realized that I was missing one challenge. From where I see, we have 2 options, let this round be like it is and hope the next round will call the people back, or do as @ramthecowy says and call @HighOctaneLove to propose a new ruleset, making the round 12 v2. What do you guys think?
New ruleset is needed, yes. But I donāt know if it should be made by @HighOctaneLove or someone else (idk, anyone).
This ruleset just didnāt work. The underlying idea was good, but replicating real life cars in the game just isnāt too much fun and I think thatās an another reason why this round didnāt get parcipants. The beauty of the game is that you can let your imagination fly, and this wasnāt that.
Oh, and @JohnWaldock, did anyone else enter a car to this round besides me?
I did / I entered the DeTomaso Pantera.
poll?
I think is a good idea
yes, it was just the two of you. i did warn HOL about his original ruleset being too vague, and welp. yeah.
second ruleset was better, but, again, vague.
and i was a touch lax in getting it all sorted, so my apologies there.
Itās alright John, we all got other things going on.
Good to see I wasnāt the only one wondering wtf was going down in Automation town. Iād happily submit a vehicle if the requirements are tightened.
The deadline for this round is already passed. I propose that we let this round go, not creating a V2 and run it like normal. Two entries are enough to have a race, a winner, and a championās pick. Then we can go ahead and recover for round 13.
Yeah, itās a faster solution.
iāll get on that tomorrow
