BooWapGaming - 30 Day Poll - 5 Most Important Things

[Sweendoggy]

Once again I'm getting excited to get my very own MXS racing organization going (been in the works, sort of, for a long time now)... I have a ton of ideas that I want to try out, however I thought it would be good to take a pulse of what is important to you guys!

Poll runs for 30 days, you can change your vote (hopefully there will be discussion in this thread). I'm not going to straight up implement the 5 things that win this Poll or anything, but I would like to know what the communities thoughts are for sure. Please help to get as many people to contribute to this Poll as you can!

Note, if you have suggestions for things not on this list, let me know and I think I can add them in.

Nice to see an new racing organization, can't wait!

[MX ONLINE BeRG]

so i already cast my vote but just to clarify for myself and any others that dont understand, when you say "pay to play race for money series" you mean paying to race the series correct? Or do you actually mean winners win money lol. Personally i interpret it as paying to race which i think would be a good thing so track makers and people that put in time such as yourself should be compensated for their work and time.

Can't wait for this, thanks sween!

What about better qualifying. Not the fastest time but best 3 lap times instead. That way it cleans up racing some hopefully.

This ^^^ or night-of qualifying. Then release track with a password and give password out right when qualifying starts and you do qualifying sessions. Im a huge fan of how monster energy cup was ran by byron. That type of racing I would love to see happen again.

I used to run something called winter indoor that did qualifying like that, it was cool! That is the "live qualifying" option above.

I don't want qualifying for the race to take more time/effort/skill than the actual race. That seems backwards to me.

Just want to remind everyone I won the small bike class in the 1st winter indoor race.

First of all Sween, I LOVE YOU!

Secondly, I voted for these 5.

High Quality, Lower Quantity of events

While it's nice to have a lot of races going on at once, it's not nice to have a lot of events going on weekly that are poorly ran with an inconsistent schedule.

Emphasis on Teams, possibly with simulated "salary cap" etc

This is impossible to have, but it would be sick to have an official team page somewhere on the website with "Salary caps" for Pro teams.

Custom Tracks and Custom Championships

Race Factory Gaming and EMF do replica championships that have been successful, but lets be real here, it gets repetitive after years of doing it. Custom tracks and custom championships keep this game fresh and fun, and I specifically would like to see "amateur nationals" with Pro/Am classes ran once every couple months and act as the official "MX Simulator Amateur Nationals" for the amateur riders, while the replica series can be Pro only. Maybe in place of the amateur nationals that are currently in place can be "Pro national amateur day" with multiple classes running scripted 10 minute motos, rather than Amateurs running 30 min + 2 lap motos.

Protests/rules enforced strictly

The biggest thing that keeps people away from this game IMO is when riders make it their goal weekly to target specific riders and make their racing experience on this game terrible. It draws people away from the community and sadly it's just the lack of maturity some people on this game have.

Media Content for Events (Videos, Photos, Reports, Podcasts)

People have tried to post consistent media for this game, including myself (On the clock, stats, etc), but it's hard to gain motivation when it's a one man show running it. If multiple people can contribute to weekly screenshots, interviews, articles, race reports, it would gain professionalism in the game and make it more similar to a game like iRacing, rather than a bunch of "schmuck kids" racing.

The replica series definitely gets me burnt out on the game, it would be great to have some more fun layed back creative format type races.

Bring back Localcross, that was the best custom series I've participated in.

spring and fall series were legit. but rF seems to have fallen off. Replica Lorettas, mx, and sx are sick and everything else fun

I might do Loretta Lynn's again, depends how busy I am in July and if I have a server available.

When I saw Salary cap, I thought it would be a really cool thing to put in place! However, I feel like mxs teams are based on people you're friends with in the game. BUT! (big but) If there is a replica series with replica teams then that's when we could do the salary cap! So, the best riders in mxs will be assigned a certain wage, set by BooWap so that teams will have to methodically pick and choose who they want to be the "guy". Hopefully that made sense.
