It appears Sambinksey and DasVdub will be on the standby list since all rooms are full with 16.

That or a room of you two with 12 AI cars.

I am already in your room Pred....at least as they are formed in your post.

well, that's great,B room restarted 3 times then when my box freezes no invite,

1st due to lag hit,
2nd damage first corner,
3rd restart was on lap 8.... cause pred's box froz on lap 3

now you won't even hold up for me to restart my box before you go for the forth try....
if its going to be like that then why should i even bother trying?

My f&%$ing xbox froze on lap 37 AND my ingernet is down wtf

It screwed up the room pretty bad, half the room left or split into their own lobbies. I have a photo of the times for six of us that stayed in the room.

It wasnt me, several people left or got disconnected about 30 seconds before i locked up

the room exploded lol, luckily it was very late and most GT's were on the last lap and GTC's were getting close to the end.

it was almost like a nuke went off in the room lol, I did send a replay to Pred for A room.

But that was the first time I've been put into my own lobby in 2 years

Mic didn't work after the 4th restart and i was racing along deaf when everybody started leaving so i thought we were restarting again. But i ended up being the only one in the room. I said the hell with it. I spent a shit load of time setting up my car and nobody restarted for me. I know shit happens but damn. I hope next week is better. So much for a pi increase.

So did the Forza Server go down why every one got placed in their own room?

This couldl be the break I was looking for to put me back on the home page at Top 5 Drivers for GTC...crossing my fingers LOL!!!!

B room had more than its share of problems with lag and people late. Then lag restarts took too much time, then My box froze out on lap 2.5 and couldn't come back in the room because I had it set for invite only. So by the time things got worked out we were an hour late and we lost racers. Then we got it started and two people lagged out again. I tried to get.folks to back out but by then everyone was fed up. We seem to have1 race a season where things are just jacked up and this is it.

We will have 2 new rules and proceedures that will be instituted beginning next race. Stay tuned.

Great racing in the C room. O351 great race man you gave the creeps from lap 6 up to 10 i think, you where so close to me you could have passed earlier. Which you ended up doing a couple laps later. Great race never the less. Hope to be in a room with you guys from C room again for Road America.

it wasn't a server related issue, there might have been a fairly large spike in activity and boom, but everyone finished but one person from what I know.

one word wow

Need times from C Room.

bimmer was hot on my tail the whole race but i managed to hold him off i think, not sure if he somehow passed in the last corners but i don't think he made up 250 ft in 20 seconds lol, great race man once again, it's hard to be on the edge for that long but you make me do it dammit! lol

wish we had less restarts and that i had a little more competition but besides that it was good race

If the races are going to start 20-40 mins late every week i will be forced to pull out of the series...

Welcome to the internet. Things don't always work, and we all want to let everyone have the chance to race so delays will happen. In A room we had all but Raceboy by 5 minutes to the race, but then we spent 15 minutes trying to get him in the lobby (He did get there finally), then spent another 10 minutes trying to get Bimmer back in when he dropped. Plus one (two?) restart.

Sorry your schedule doesn't allow for a small delay, but I don't think I've ever had a lobby start on time.

B room was well after nine east coast time before we got started. I knew the next time differance when i started the series. But i also get up at 4:30 to get some training in for my triathlons so i want to be in bed by ten. I know shit happens for sure but i am hoping we don't have any more problems like last night. I enjoy the series to much.

Yea bro, that pace was pretty blistering, but I don't expect any less. Unfortunately for me I made my biggest mistake after you pit, had a slight lapse in concentration and literally drove off the track after missing my braking point by 25 feet or so. I was going to try and push to lap 30 to pit but it would have caused me to pass gtc cars the pit right after only to repass them again after my pit. So I think that hurt me some, but either way I think our lap times were so freaking similar lap after lap closing the gap was a difficult task to say the least. Great run nonetheless, people making me push the limit are the reason I am still here racing in the series.

that's why i chose to pit when i did lol i saw us coming up to GTC and thought it would be a good time. and yeah, oen of us would put down a great lap and pull away or catch up then the reverse would happen and it was just nuts lol. i agree, that's why i'm still here too

You were in B room and because of you qualified time that were you were placed. I am not sure what happened in B room but I am sure those guys are competitive maybe you should try and get a better time to so you can make it into A room.

I think alot of ppl were frustrated so some ppl just left.

I didn't see your message until after the race was over. I was on "Busy" status so I didn't get notification that you sent me a message. You have my # why didnt you just call me? I would have told them to wait. I can hear your ringtone (death metal) over my turtle beaches no problem
