    RaceOnOz Monday Night ACC League Season 6 - GT3 World Tour
    Admin team: @krunch, @nanlatt, @CornfordCaster, @SteveDrivingSlowly, @Flamebadger
    Grab your passport, pack your bags and lock your front door!
    Season 6 is here and it's the GT3 World Tour!

    HOW TO SIGNUP TO SEASON 6
    :sneaky::ninja::alien::cautious::cool::eek::poop::oops::roflmao::sleep::coffee::thumbsup:

    All sign ups for this season will be handled by our results website. This requires a quick and simple registration to allow drivers to interact with the results site and help us to generate server set-up files and entry lists automatically.
    • Please go to stevehasadomain.com and either log in or register for a user account
    • Once you have logged in there, you will see a link to the signup form under 'News' on the home page
    • If you competed in more than 4 races last season, your space will be reserved until Tuesday 8th June - but you still need to confirm it by clicking the link and submitting the mostly pre-filled form! If not confirmed before Tuesday 8th June, you will loose your reserved spot and you'll need to sign up as normal (and join the waiting list if the season is full).
    • Follow the link, fill in the form and you are signed up for the new season!
    • You can now sign in to the site anytime to check race results, league tables, stats and so forth
    • Most of these race results, league tables, stats and so forth will also be visible here on our forum
    Back here at the forum you can check the Entry list below and see how it grows! Also if you are new to ROOZ ACC leagues please make sure you've done at least (3) legal timed laps in one type of GT3 on the qualifying server before the season begins.

    RULES, REGS & ETIQUETTE
    We ask every driver to be fully familiar with the rules, regulations, courteous driving etiquette and lodging protests info linked below:

    IMPORTANT INFO
    • This season is a GT3 vehicle class championship run over 10 rounds.
    • It is a fixed car per driver championship. Whichever car you start your first official round in will be the car you use for the rest of the season.
    • Signups will remain open until all 50 slots are filled. After that new signups go onto a reserve list to take the place of those who drop out of the season.
    • Race types are:
      • Sprints
        - Practice – 45min
        - Qualifying – 15min
        - Race – 1hr
        - 1 Mandatory pitstop for tyres
        - 57 minute pit window

        - fuel pit time to be specified in that round's thread
        - any other details to be specified in that round's thread
    • Driver classes:
      • Pro, Silver and AM each with their own separate championship.
      • These classes are assigned using a combination of the RaceOnOz driver pace calculations (more info), ACC ratings & qualifying server laps (for those new to the league) and discretion.
      • Classes will be reviewed after round 4 in the season with adjustments occurring under certain circumstances.
    • All series' will drop a driver's lowest scoring round which will be reflected in our dynamic and interactive leaderboards.
    • Drivers can enter the season at any round as long as certain criteria are met.
    • There will be variable weather for each round (subject to volatility of Kunos' weather system).
    • There will be a dedicated practice server available all week configured with matching Monday race conditions
    • Wednesday each week is the official 'get together' practice night for the season and includes shorter fun based races in a more casual style. The server is still configured to match most of the Monday race conditions.
    • The use of custom painted skins is NOT allowed for Season 6 (penalties may apply).
    • Server information will be listed within each round's specific forum thread.
    • Joining a race evening - all drivers are required to join a league session either during the practice session or qualifying. Race sessions will be closed.
    • SESSION TIMES (AEST - click for time zone info)
      • Official Practice: 8.00pm
      • Qualifying: *8.45pm approx.
      • Race: *9.05pm approx.
        * These times are a guide only as a small amount of time is added between each session

    Season Break Enduros
    These non-championship races are special events and will have their own dedicated threads closer to the time, please look out for those in due course!​

    DISCORD & VOICE
    All important information for racing is available on our forums, however we strongly advise drivers to join our Discord server for for voice and text chat.
    Sometimes critical information such as server issues, race delays, last minute race format changes, instructions to a specific driver, etc. will be relayed only through the Discord voice channel and text chat. There is also a healthy dose of banter that just makes the round more fun :). Once you sign up for any Season at Rooz you'll be given extra Discord permissions for text chat.

    Discord voice chat rules and etiquette:
    • if you intend to chat you MUST use push-to-talk. No-none wants to hear your gear clicks, heavy breathing or barking dog in the background.
    • non-excessive chat and banter is OK in Practice sessions.
    • There should be minimal chat in Qualifying sessions - essential questions, statements, apologies etc. only.
    • There should be minimal chat in Race sessions - essential questions, statements, apologies etc. only.
    • If you become frustrated or angry at yourself or another driver DO NOT PUSH YOUR TALK BUTTON. Keep it private!
    • DO NOT CONDUCT ARGUMENTS OVER VOICE CHAT. Sort it out later!
    • ABUSE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. There's no place for that stuff at Rooz!
    • Please wait until ALL drivers have completed the final lap of a race before discussing your race.
    • Admins may speak at any time in any session for obvious reasons.
    • Feel free to hang around in chat after the race. Many of us like to have a laugh about things that may have happened in the race and it can be a nice wind-down :)

    CUSTOM PAINTED SKINS
    Unfortunately due to the serious "join freeze" or "join lag" issue we are currently not allowing the use of custom painted skins for Season 6. Specifically we are talking about skins painted externally and saved as PNG files that are added to ACC.

    We love the idea of custom painted skins and would dearly love to add this rich feature to our league but ultimately the quality of the racing must come first.

    If you also love custom painted skins then please help us out by searching high and low for real solutions, and by all means feel free to do some testing on our servers including during our Wednesday fun practice nights.

    At this stage we are not restricting the use of the in-game editor for creating custom colour schemes. This may change if we find that even that system causes serious join lag issues.

    NOTE: As we cannot block the use of skins at the server level we strongly suggest all drivers who sign up to Season 6 remove all custom painted skins from their game installation folders as a precaution. If a custom painted skin has been accidentally left selected on a driver's car when they enter the S6 server during a qualifying session causing join lag they will be immediately disqualified from the round. Any driver that has a copy of that joining driver's selected skin will experience a large join lag as that image is loaded into memory. Every other driver on the server may experience some level of 'join lag' even if they have zero customs skins in their game.

    QUALIFYING SERVER
    If you are new to ROOZ ACC leagues please make sure you have done at least (3) legal timed laps in one type of GT3 on the qualifying server before the season begins. This will help us put you in the correct class for your pace level. To find the server just search for rooz in the ACC lobby and seek out the one with Qualifying Server in the name.

    Thanks for racing at RaceOnOz
    :)

    Driver classes have been fixed in the backend - thanks Steve!
    Driver class assignments will still be formally reviewed again after round 4 and adjustments will be made if required

    For those who have made it here congratulations on signing up and let's have some good racing!

    A few of the events in our calendar are in 2+ hours in length and we understand that these can be difficult for people in different timezones. If you can provide some feedback about those events and if you would be interested in an earlier start time or if a slightly earlier start time is difficult for you (for Qualifying and the Race specifically) then please let us know. We'll make a survey closer to the first 2hr event to gather your feedback but it would also be good to add a comment to this thread as well so we can get a gauge for theses races ahead of time.

    I don't think I'll have the time to make a full season tilt - any chance I could drop in for a few races this season?

    EDIT: have signed up, but will not be likely making all races

    I've signed up - hopefully I make the grade.
    I will probably miss a round here and there where it clashes with other things both online and RL

    I'll see if we can change it. At the moment only Steve can access certain details and he's been busy helping Melbourne fend off Armageddon.

    If you did them that's fine. Our system sometimes gets gummed up and results don't filter through. I can manually check the results files on the server.
