F1RWRS -- 2014 Season

[DanielPT]

Did you guys ended up deciding that the market would open this week or in September?

We'll let our esteemed overlord figure that out.

Personally, I'm not too fussed as I'm on here far too often for it to affect me that much. Unless it opens at like 1am in the morning Sydney time. Then things get VERY interesting

Since my holidays are now over until November (or October if my contract isn't renewed) it is not a problem for me also. Besides I doubt many teams can afford the engines I am interested in.

And on that basis alone, I've just come to the conclusion that I should be far more worried about Sunshine in 2015 than first thought.

Especially considering I get the sneaking suspicion that you're aiming for the same engines that MRT are looking to use for 2015.

My laptop picked a greaaaaat time to stop working

[Aerond]

Market will open on Wednesday, at 11:00 PM; Spanish time.
A new thread for the 2015 season will be open by then, where you have to post.
One last novelty is that future upgrades have to be communicated to me via email; is left to you to decide if they have to be published as well or if we keep upgrades in secrecy.

Does anyone want to work out what that would be in everyone's timezone.

That'll be 8am on Thursday morning in Sydney, which would be 7:30am in your corner in the world if I've done my conversions right. In Eagleland and Canada, it'll be anywhere between 3 and 6pm on Wednesday afternoon depending on what part of the continent you're on.

Not bad then, I have an alarm clock so I should be fine. Also, make sure I have the email by then. And sorry for being impaitent.

[Stramala]

10pm UK/Portugal time then. As long as I can pry my parents off the shared desktop this should work ok for me

BTW if anyone is looking to sell their current engine, PM me and perhaps we can come to some sort of deal...

I've just sent out your follow-up email and I've sent one to MinardiFan as well. I was planning on sending it at the end of the week but since Aerond had the market open far earlier than I expected, I kinda had to do it now anyway.

Actually, I was off. It's 7am Thursday morning Sydney time and 6:30am Adelaide time.

I don't know if Hotmail is just being it's failure self but I haven't got it yet.

[Klon]

That should make it noon at CEST. Sounds good to me.

Noon? Don't you mean midnight?

And Eurobrun, check your email again.

Now I have got it, thank you.

[MinardiFan95]

The time should be alright for me, it's what time I usually wake up (unless of course I do what I did today, and sleep after turning off my alarm). I've got a few preferences for engine/chassis set already as well...

[Klon]

I sure do once I read it was PM and not AM. Now that is not quite as good, but manageable.

[Stramala]

Spain doesn't use CEST?

They do apparentely. Bullsh*t. If you're in line with the United Kingdom, you should use WEST.
I mean, what the hell are those time zones for if you don't handle them properly.

[JeremyMcClean]

That's 5pm on Wednesday afternoon for those in Ontario/Quebec/The Eastern part of the USA.

For those living in places like Russia or Bolivia, this converter should do the trick

[Shizuka]

Hopefully my father doesn't decide to go to sleep before 10 pm, or I'm royally screwed for another season. We'll see. I only plan to change the chassis, though.

[AdrianSutil]

I should be making my decision on chassis and engine around 10:30 on Wednesday evening and I'm either going for a big engine and keeping the chassis or big chassis and keeping the engine. Difficult choice.

[tommykl]

Meanwhile, I will probably keep the same package for one more year.

[AndreaModa]

Same as me then! Yawn...what's all this about chassis and engine lists? I think I'll have an early night on Thursday!

[Warren Hughes]

It's going to be mental on here on Wednesday. I'm already nervous. That's a bit sad isn't it

[AdrianSutil]

It's not because I'm feeling that same

[Klon]

Always remember, no matter how silly the thing is you get excited for, there will always be teen-aged girls who get excited about dumber things with poorer quality.

Same here. I seriously can't wait for the season to start because I'm certain this will be a cracker of a year.

I think this could be the best F1RWRS season ever.

Personally I can't wait as it will be the first season I will follow from the start

This is my first season of having a team so I am really hoping it goes well.

[Phoenix]

Indeed, I predict a clusterf*ck of epic proportions when the process is open. And, yes, I too am very nervous. I have a good chassis and the 2012 champ in one car, who knows what Aeroracing could achieve if we get hold of a good engine this year?

[East Londoner]

Eurobrun, you better get a good combination tomorrow, otherwise Damon Cannon will be most displeased.

[Wizzie]

Due to my incompetence, the reliability of the Rial is 2000, not 7000

[Aerond]

By the way; I have a new rule which I don´t think needs voting; as there´s a cap on top power, there should be a cap on low reliability to avoid any team buying all possible reliability and setting it at 0, making the car totally reliable. We should set a limit on this to 2000.

[Aerond]

I remind you that market operations shall be posted in the new 2015 thread and not here.

[SuperAguri]

Barii Mori will be in the bar drinking and getting merry on the Wednesday night..

[Aerond]

Are the costs for upgrading reliability, power and drivers qualifying and racing performance and reliability going to be the same?

Are we still prohibited from upgrading a driver that we manage that is driving for another team?

Yes and Yes

[FMecha]

I will probably make no changes.

And if it is going to move into a new thread for next season, remove "onwards" from the title.

(And it's opening at 4am in my location - UTC+7)
