01 Server is clearly the favorite as far as outdoors servers go, but it's 4 laps long. Barely enough for erode to start getting good. Let's get a solid 12+1 meta goin

+1
Literally anything longer than 4 laps plz. Some tracks have the finish right after the start.

I did message JLV about a while ago asking for them to be 25 minutes or something like that. Was denied, think he said no body would want to wait.

That's true. 4 laps x 2-ish minutes + last guy to finish, is tedious enough if you have to wait. Better having like a flowtech server set to rotate on 20+2 races with auto restarts --.00h and --.30h, then you know to enter at 10.25 to make it into the 10.30 race... ?

Interesting idea! Easily done with a script too. I wonder if 30 minutes might be too long of an interval though.

In the meantime I changed 01 to 5 laps. It should take effect next time the server empties out.

Thanks for making the sessions a little longer, even one lap will make it a little better.

If people want long 30 minutes races, I think 20+2 or 20+1 is a good way to go. Easy times to remember when to log onto the server as well as you should get a few minutes between races to grab a snack, reply to a text or go for a quick bathroom break.

Way too long. Would end up with 5 people at the finish every race going 25/30 minute Motos.

I recommend 10-15mins + 1 lap if anything

But some folks (me) just wanna pop on and shred quick races, not everyone’s here for the ‘endurance’ runs

Think that would need a separate server.

May you put 02 to 5 laps also?

Done. It'll take effect the next time the server is empty.

Thank you!

For now, 5 laps is perfect! But that is also a very good idea A lot of flowtech servers are circulating the 2019 Nats, mine included. They are on 30+2 and it's empty so I doubt majority would want to wait that long.
