As promised, 5th August!
<a cheeky picture goes here>

Welcome ladies and gentlemen boys and girls children of all ages, to the first season of my custom-built Racing Manager game, as a forum game. Racing Manager is a slightly complex F1 team manager game.

Regulations
I have compiled some regulations, which you can read here (they are reasonably long)
https://docs.google.com/document/d/15yR0fbMHmvBioc3RfSlNyJydFyQVbD0ppjjcJ76MbVQ/edit?usp=sharing
If you already read my regulations in the HoF & Discussion thread, the changes so far are in red. If you've already read those, the new updates are marked in blue.

Don't want to read such long regulations? Try the shortened version, it'll get you into the groove of things.

Knowing either regulations is a MUST before attempting to appeal any decisions made by the moderator. I will guide you to the correct section if you want, but I will not accept it if you completely ignore them.

Calendar:
The season 1 calendar is chosen completely by the moderator, and is final. Complain as you wish, for next season I may allow managers to choose a certain number of tracks.
1-Australian Grand Prix (Melbourne) - 8th March
2-Brazillian Grand Prix (Interlagos) - 29th March
3-San Marino Grand Prix (Pre-2006 Imola) - 12th April

Standings:
Nothing here so far

Game Beta
After the second race, I will hand out a copy of the game to everyone who asks me in the team conversation (more on this later). At that point you have signed up for the beta and will recieve updates after every race here, unless you say otherwise. Optionally, you may report any issues back to me for a further test.
The only requirement for the beta is that you have a Windows PC/laptop and are a manager in the forum game, or give me a good enough reason that forces you out of the game. Once you sign out of the game, you will stop recieving updates for the beta.

FAQ
If you ever wish to ask me something, search here first, it might have already been asked. (use Ctrl+F on your browser)
If I promote a driver to the race team permanently, there will then an available seat with the Young Drivers or Test Drivers squad. Does that space get filled, and how?
You should be able to contact one of the GP2 drivers that is not a young driver already, the driver will see it as a big opportunity to get into F1.
In case of test driver, you can promote one of your other young drivers

Now i know the calendar looks like a copy of 1998 and pretty much everything looks like a copy of F1 1998 but I thought I'd base it around that year for a start, I feel like it'll be the best fit for the game.

Oh and if you're wondering why I need team colours so detailed, here's a crop from the preview pic I posted in the discussion thread:

Basically, the game reads RGB values, so I need RGB values. Can still look them up myself but the result may not be what you are hoping for, so I'd recommend do it yourself to avoid problems.
 
Short Team Name: Mars GP
Commercial Team Name. Mars Inc. Bounty Grand Prix
Team Colour Background: Blue
Team Colour Text: White

Yep, our car will be sponsored by Bounty for the upcoming season! (Sponsorship will probably change every season!)

I will sort out RGB values later
 
DTK Racing
Robot Wars DTK Racing
numbers 14 and 15 please regardless.
Same team colours and RGB values from Omers manager please.

I've been asked to reserve numbers 20 and 21, if the person joins he will get those, otherwise, all teams beyond that will move up one.

Also I've been asked by @Andy 'Mars Bar' Graham to keep bounty in the commercial name, so I have come up with the idea to have sponsors named as "Sponsor 1", "sponsor 2" etc, with the ability to rename.
So I've put back the commercial name into the signup, go fill it up if you haven't :thumbsup:

also, TAG ATTACK time
