Maybe Thursday nights then? Sunday would conflict with amateur nationals.

I'll give discord a closer look. It looks so much like IRC I thought it was just chat.

Should definitely look into Discord. Seems to be the go to with this generation and its really organized and then I think once a Discord is setup we should look into rebooting this series!!
If you enjoy what I make, donate to the cause 8) It's very much appreciated!!

You can also install it on your phone, console and get notifications across all platforms. Smaller files can be shared too. Any old night of the week is good. Not tonight though?

Not sure whether or not you have but you might want to actually play the tracks before picking them.

Er, didn't you ask me to run it? Were you being sarcastic?

Not necessarily sarcastic, I just know that I'm not Atlaszoor or JGMX and if you want to get riders I think it would be better to get "big name" tracks. I hate to argue against a track that I'm very happy with and would love to see people race on one of my tracks but I also don't know how liked they are (since they don't get comments) and don't think it would be good for getting riders.

Okay. I won't run it if you don't want me to. For me it checked all the boxes. Looks nice and pretty easy to ride. A little like a modern Voutare* track. The timing gates were a little iffy but not a big deal for something casual.

I don't have a lot of time to review tracks so with me picking them it'll basically be me randomly choosing something and using it if I like it or going on to another one if I don't. Definitely not going to be testing dozens of tracks to find the absolute best.

We'll see how it goes, I'm eager to see how it races with multiple people on it. I'll finally get to find out if my line balance is as good as I think it is :lol:
