Hi Guys, I hope you're doing collectively well?
This is just a suggestion, so if you feel I'm over-stepping the mark then apologies in advance for that.
I've noticed that Grassy is no longer hosting events and will be taking some time off, so can somebody please take up the mantle and patiently organise race lobbies while he's away?
I've noticed people setting up small racing lobbies with just a few players in it, and not waiting for other people to join or sending out invites, and one of Grassy's great qualities is his patience in bringing large groups of people together. I guess I miss Grassy's organisational skills. I've also heard people suggesting that XB1 is a dead horse and PS4 is taking over, etc, which is partly true. However, there are dozens of people looking for large racing playlists, even those who ask ME if I know of any active races.
I suppose I could go online this evening and set up a playlist and patiently wait for people to join, and some of you will join, I know that, but I'm not an active or respected member of this crew, so I'm asking you to be patient when trying to establish playlists so that the stragglers can join. Racing lobbies with 16+ players are such good fun but these can sometimes take half-an-hour or more to get established.
Apologies if I'm pissing anyone off with this thread - it's not my intention.
All The Best

You're not pissing anyone off bud. Personally I appreciate you saying something and trying to make something happen ๐. There's definitely a group who will only join if Grassy is hosting but I like the idea of nightly playlists if there isn't an event going on. Doesn't matter to me who's hosting as long as it's not a horrible track selection. I usually have a playlist when I'm on and notice Grassy isn't. You're welcome to join me anytime man but I typically do non contact races outside of a mostly NS playlist.

Jenki!!! I just saw this. You are a RESPECTED member of this crew. Your presence in our racing lobbies doesn't go unnoticed and you are a great deal of fun to hang with. I've got mad respect for you as you are more involved in this game than I have ever been. You take part in all aspects of the game whereas I just race. Hopefully I'll catch up with you soon. By all means, you are more than welcome to host a playlist in hopes for some shifters to join. Cheers mate.

Kind words, Grassy, I appreciate that. Good fun last night and good racing. Glad to see you back and hosting events. The Gfred experiment at the end of the playlist was interesting too, and I think we could have a regular event once a week or so, what do you think? I know some people didn't like it, but that's because they're not familiar with the course and the basic lines - it's really simple if you plod along. Watch some of Broughy's youtube videos (assuming you can stay awake that long )

IM UP FOR THAT ONCE A WEEK IF ORGANIZED WELL. I WISH THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A FEW MORE CHECK POINTS AND A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE EVENT. IF YOU WANT TO HOST THIS SYLE OF EVENT WEEKLY THEN BY ALL MEANS. CHEERS

Hww about we do a Gfred event next Wednesday then, on May 3rd? I'll host, but anyone can do it. Team Gfred sounds OK, and I've edited my post and created two basic teams, or perhaps we could have a third or fourth? Let me know what you think. Team 1: Hey, Daddy-OJENKIIII Skillz Grassy .... Team 2: The LoudmouthsOccupiedBrain Am I 2Fast4U .... Team 3: Havana Affairs
.... Team 4: The Baseball Bats
...
I've added Grassy and Skillz to the 'Hey, Daddy-O's' team and will happily show them the basic lines, especially Skillz who was understandably not happy. We need more members of the 'Loudmouths' though, and I've created some provisional teams you can also join. And if anyone wants to know these basic lines, the 'Zancudo Line' lol, let me know/message me and I'll show you. This is especially applicable to getting up and down Mt. Chiliad, which let's face it, Grassy, should not be done on foot

I'll enjoy it more after a few more runs. I'll add you to my team then Lifted, with Grassy and Skillz, and I'll show you the basic lines. It's dead easy. That's Team 1 sorted out, but we need more candidates for Teams 2, 3 and 4. BTW, I'm going to create a new thread just for clarity... cheers!
