The Car Shopping Round (Round 64): Tears in Heaven

Lighten up dude, read it in a friendly voice and see that it is not meant as harassment :wink:
And league is awesome!

donā€™t even bring that shite here. And no he was not salty, and nor are any of us.

Letā€™s break this down just a little.
1: First post.
2: References a shitty game.
3: Letā€™s just throw in an internet meme because thatā€™s the cool thing to do.

Yep, three strikes, youā€™re out, itā€™s an internet troll.

For the record, itā€™s usually not a good idea to jump into a new community and rip into someone whoā€™s been here longer than you have. It makes you look like a dick. So now that youā€™ve shit the bed and rolled in it, perhaps youā€™ll have some more interesting commentary to mention?

Nah, itā€™ll just be more of the same garbage, Iā€™m sure. After all, itā€™s just a troll.

well people. we are all bit angry at the round master for disappearing like that. but we donā€™t need any dramas. keep calm and carry on. we should all make a pool and vote who will be crs21 round master

p.s. i dont believe i will ever win any CSR. neither i will be round master so yeah but i will keep playing it

also how to win against trolls
-dont reply
-ignore

And given that trolls do not belong here we should not let them taint this contest any further. In the meantime, weā€™ll see how the next host is determined, although at the rate results are being announced (none at all so far!) we will need a poll to conclude this round for the first time in CSR history.

Moreover, a new open beta build has just been released. But should we use it or continue with the current stable release?

That decision will rest with the next roundmaster.

quick reminder that the new update with inline-3 is sucking on the CPU

One. Not the place

Two. It is not effecting everybody, my own 5 year old computer runs exactly the same. But my system doesnt run fallout so its nothing special.

Soā€¦ has any decision been made on how we will proceed with the next round with Kubboz being MIA?

Yep. Still no reply. Weā€™re moving to poll. That being said, the forum is currently having performance issues, and even creating a new message was a singularly painful experience. Going through this thread to get the cars up is going to be SUPER painful. And as of now, Iā€™m taking control of the judgement process. This precludes me from hosting the next round even if I win (but I definitely wonā€™t), and besides, even if I did win, I hosted recently, so Iā€™d definitely be passing the duty onto somebody else.

#Entries are now closed.

##Everybody who has submitted, can you ensure that the post where you have posted your car contains the following: 1) pictures of your car arranged on a SINGLE image 2) your main stats of the car 3) your carā€™s Automation Track time 4) your market tab showing the price of the car with ZERO markup

Iā€™m giving until 8pm AEST, 20/9/16 for this to be done. Iā€™ll grab the images available and throw them into a poll. If the results can be hidden to everybody until the poll is closed, Iā€™ll do it here. If not, Iā€™ll think of something else. And since people were desperate enough to try cheating in other polls (just ask @Sillyworld), if we conclude youā€™re cheating, youā€™ll get permanently barred from this thread. Donā€™t do it.

Sorry, I canā€™t do fixtures so nix that part. Weā€™ll try and grab Kubby and see what happened down the track.

Can we make a completely new post with those pictures? I cant be bothered trying to find my original post especially with the new thread navigation that doesnt allow us to input a specific post number.

Seems it might be a good idea to say ā€œalright, only car re-reveals from here on until poll is postedā€, or ar least allow reposting the original stuff because itā€™d be a massive pain on everybody to scroll through hundreds of posts to look at each entrant.

It is a good idea. Thereā€™s a very important reason for it, but thereā€™s also a problem with it.

  1. Important reason is that since weā€™re doing full reveals now, I donā€™t want anybody new trying to simply trump stats. I mean thatā€™s a present risk throughout the round as it is, but especially in this circumstance.
  2. The problem is that some people just PM the file and weā€™ve let them through before because sometimes one doesnā€™t have time to do up a fancy ad. Itā€™s against the spirit of this contest but itā€™s not the strictest rule in the world, so I donā€™t want to unexpectedly exclude somebody from the round just because they hadnā€™t gotten around to it.

Thoughts?

actually. you could.
itā€™s just hidden.

it still appears when youā€™re trying to reply.


so for the people that may not have enough time to slap the necessary things together to make the poll. i could help you. PM me your car, and iā€™ll make it for you. i have plenty of spare time up until monday noon. iā€™ll release all the picture of the car i received in a single post in monday.

but wait a bit. iā€™ll post my car first as an example of the format iā€™ll post it, and as proof that i wonā€™t and cant revise my own car. iā€™ll be back in about 2 hours from now

@strop youā€™re fine with this right?

yep, at this stage we just need to get done and I trust you. Go for it!

Placing pictures of oneā€™s entry on just one imageā€¦ Iā€™ll be on it now.

No fucking shit, Captain Obvious. We all know that placing pictures in one image requires, you know, image editing software. It could be done with Paint if it really had to be done, it just wouldnā€™t be pretty. Also, weā€™ve all been playing the game for quite a long time, we all know what the fuck zero markup is.

Hereā€™s a hint for you: If it sounds obvious, you donā€™t fucking need to post it!

I am going to go ahead and assume, based on the performance issues we had in DBR, that the spinny GIFs are verboten lest we start crashing browsers.

Just to clarify, the stat numbers are green because due to the unique way Automation saves things, I had to click through the tabs to get things to register.

Yeah, thatā€™s probably a good idea.
