RD Formula1 Manager - Test Game Thread

Omer Said · Jun 8, 2011

Hello dear RaceDepartment folk. Here we are with another unique forum game. A Formula1 managership game which can be played in a forum and you can play it even by just checking here 1-2 times a week.

HOW TO PLAY?
This is a turn based racing managership game. You give your commands a team director, and at the end of every turn i randomize the certain values and game moves on to the next turn. You will track the race from the updated trackmaps.

Rules are extremely simple. You take control of a team. Spend your money on upgrades and in the race you only adjust your driver's pace, drs/kers control and pitstop timing. You have to tell them here in the thread, no PMing to me is allowed.

An example of commanding your team in the races:

Alonso pace: steady
Massa pace: Aggressive
Use Drs

or

Alonso pace: steady
Massa pace: steady - Pit this lap!
Use KERS
Use Drs

or

Alonso pace: extremely defensive
Massa pace: steady

There will be 10 races in the championship and you will be able to upgrade your car mid-races. You will gain money according to your finish positions in each race.

Races will be 10 laps long. 1 pitstop is mandatory in each of them. There is no tyre degrading or fuel consumption.

Turns will advance appoximetly in 3 days periods. Sometimes there maybe delays cuz of real-life (If only i could turn myself into an A.I).

I will not reveal the randomization values this time (As i did in EnhancedForumRacing 1), but there will be exact values and everything will be fair and equal for everyone.

QUALIFICATIONS
-I will pick a random number between 1-100, you will select a number from this span for both of your drivers seperately. Most close driver will get the pole. You must tell me your chosen numbers via Private Messaging.

Any questions, PLEASE ASK!
Any suggestions, PLEASE TELL!
Any bugs, PLEASE REPORT!

Ok, what are you waiting for? Choose a team and spend your money (Or you can save your money for other races). And wait for the 1st race's start.

Can we have a test race?

Yes that's a great idea!

Steady means your driver will go between (Just for example, not exact values) 4-7, Aggressive goes 1-3 8-10, defensive and kamikaze are mainly for the overtakings. When a driver comes behind of another, i do a randomization. These paces increases the chances of overtaking/defending position.

I do all randomizations at the randomizer.org site

And here is the test race's track:

Let's fill up the game folks, sign sign sign up up up :thumb:

In the test race: Just for you the test the different paces and DRS/KERS freely, you will have access to all pace levels and you will have 3x DRS and KERS.
