Hello Re-Volters!

From now on I will post the results of the weekly Ladder races also here in this thread, so people can also keep track of the Ladder, without using Discord. Latterly the amount of attenders reduced a bit, so I hope this helps and some more people will join the next events. :) Everybody can join anytime, there is no registration needed. The system behind Ladder races is rather simple.

The rules can be found here. Future Ladder events are always listed in the I/O scheduler.

Hello Re-Volters!

We were racing a SNW 35 Exclusive event yesterday.

Sadly we didn't reached the minimum amount of 8 players, so the event does not count for the Ladder. We inserted this rule, to avoid disproportionate results. The less players attend, the higher is the chance that not so good players get high places, which can bastardize the Ladder quite a lot. With a minimum amount of 8 players, this effect can be minimized. The effect can't be eleminted completly for sure. It also depends a lot on which players attend a session (A lot of good ones? A lot of not so good ones?). At first we thought about set the limit to 6 or 7 players, but in the end we decided, that this limit would be too low.

I hope you had fun anyway! :) See you next time!

Detailed Ladder rules can be found here. Future Ladder events are always listed in the I/O scheduler.

Yeah, sadly some players did not returned after the disconnections at Spa-Volt 1, which dropped the player count under 8. :( Sorry again for this, I guess this was caused by a connection issue at my side.



+++ MAJOR LADDER RULE UPDATE +++

The Car- and Trackpools were changed!
The Plus Pack is no longer needed to attend the Ladder events.

[hide=The reasons behind this changes are the following:]
  • No need for players anymore to install different packs, to be able to join Ladder events. The I/O pack is the quasi-standard, which most peopole are using, who join online races. There was quite a lot of confusion regarding the need to have the Plus Pack as well.
  • The reduced amount of cars should minimize the randomness. Beside the Stock- and DC-cars, there are only a few custom cars in the pool. This should make it easier for people to do training before the Ladder events.

See you at one of the next Ladder events!

Hello fellow Re-Volters!

Yesterday we were driving a Boss Volt Exclusive session. After the disaster from sunday we had a better attendance this time, and I am very happy because of this. Sadly the event was interrupted by an internet connection issue I had. After the internet came back after 5 minutes, we were able to continue the races. Sorry for this, and thanks for waiting, everyone!

I want to welcome KERT, who joined his first Ladder race yesterday. He was able to reach place 2 behind ZIPPERZBIERACZ at his first event. I think he was the first one with five 2nd places in a row. Nice, but also a little bit frustrating, hm? ;) However, he got rewarded with an overall 6th place in the current Ladder ranking! Congrats for this. I hope to see you more often from now on, Kert. :)

I also want to announce, that It did a small change in the Ladder's Track pool: Go Play Outside! was removed because of too many crossroads. We had a lot of crashes in yesterdays race because of this, which is pretty frustrating at a Competitive session. The track got replaced by White Rose Chapel, which is part of the main I/O trackpack, and which is perfect for Competitive Sessions.

See you next week! We will race a Random RWD (Rear-wheel-drive) car session on Category III tracks, so let's hope that Chilled to the Bone will not be chosen... :rip: :D

Hello Re-Volters!

Yesterday we were racing a Random RWD Car event. ZIPPERZBIERACZ missed the first three races, but after joining at race four, he was able to win every single race. Congratulations to the first average of 12,0 in the Ladder's (young) history! Also MIGHTY did pretty well. He was able to be on podium at every single race, and only had one third place. Also congrats to this performance! By the way: I was stopped by empty Gamepad batteries, and got no final rank in the end. Oh dear... :D

On sunday (16 UTC) we will race a Toyeca vs. Humma session. This means, everybody can choose one of this 2 cars. We will race on Random Tracks, with tracks chosen from all 3 track categories.

I also want to announce a change to the Ladder's track pool. I did a small survey last week, to find out which tracks people don't like to have at Competitive sessions. With this results as a basis, I've replaced 8 of the 60 tracks.

Removed from the track pool: Cactus Volt, Hull Breach 3, Ground n Smash 2, Mysterious Toy Volt Factory, The Gorge, Fiddlers on the Roof, Snowland 1 and Playa+. New in the pool are the following tracks: Penny Racers Caves, Biohazard Factory, Swan Street, Belgium, Donut Plains 3, Avalon, Blood on the Rooftops and Mid-Sea Island. All this tracks are part of the Main- or Bonus I/O track packs. So nothing changed regarding the requirements to join Ladder events.

See you on sunday! :)

There are no results for event #19, because only 5 players reached the limit of 5 races.

The Ladder won't be continued any longer, because of the overall very minimal interest in it.

:re-volt: Thanks to all the players, who joined one of the past 19 Ladder events! :re-volt:
