Welcome!

Hello and welcome everyone to the Magnetic Fields 30 Year Anniversary Invitational - a contest brought to you by our fellow Linotrix! This thread will keep everyone updated on the contest as it progresses.

Contest overview

This contest will be a basic playthrough of the A8 Championship, but with the rivalry being between the contest participants, not between themselves individually and the bots. There will be, however, a strict schedule that everyone will have to follow in order not to be disqualified (in case of an emergency, a participant will be allowed to complete all stages of a specified day one day in advance, as long as they inform the Championship Manager (me)). The championship schedule is presented below

Championship schedule

The contest will last for 18 consecutive days (September 3 - September 21) and each day will begin from the service area and end upon reaching the next service area (so that the game can be saved):

Vauxhall Rally of Wales (September 3 - September 5)

Day 1: Clocaenog Mid & Penmachno South
Day 2: Myherin & Hafren
Day 3: Dyfi & Gartheiniog

Pirelli International Rally (September 6 - September 10)

Day 4: Chirdonhead
Day 5: Falstone
Day 6: Kershope
Day 7: Pundershaw
Day 8: Riccarton & Newcastleton

RSAC Scottish Rally (September 11 - September 13)

Day 9: Twiglees, Yair & Cardrona
Day 10: Black Loch & Glentrool
Day 11: Ae

Seat Jim Clark Memorial Rally (September 14 - September 15)

Day 12: Moon and Star, Bothwell & Whitchester
Day 13: Eccles, Langton & Fogo

Stena Line Ulster Rally (September 16 - September 18)

Day 14: Hamilton's Folly & Tyrones Ditches
Day 15: Feeney & Parkanaur
Day 16: Lisnamuck & Tardree

Sony Manx International Rally (September 19 - September 21)

Day 17: Port Soderick, Ballagyr & Curraghs
Day 18: Tholt-Y-Will, Injerbreck & Cringle

Ranking system

This contest will follow a simple ranking system, with points being awarded after each rally. All participants' total rally times will be compared and serve as the ranking measure. Points for each place are as follows:
1st: 7 points
2nd: 6 points
3rd: 5 points
4th: 4 points
5th: 3 points
6th: 2 points
7th: 1 point

Validation process

Each driver must take two screenshots after each stage: a screenshot that shows the stage time and a screenshot that shows the overall rally time (both screens can be accessed after completing a stage, just take a screenshot of them). Additionally, it's important to record your runs, so the Championship Manager can ensure no rule was broken. It's highly recommended to use a recording software, but if that's impossible, a contestant must at least save an in-game replay of the run and send it over.
The screenshots and the recordings must be sent to the Championship Manager (me) no longer than 24h after finishing a day. They can be sent via our Discord server (recommended), or anywhere on this forum (posts will be removed after reviewing to keep the forum clean).

Progress update / Day summary

Results and standings after each day will be posted in this thread every weekend and daily on the following spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WLtr_eQwDEx2vuVmBKmAS6WYmD-4qSx1a0-LWfVW7oA/edit?usp=drivesdk

Rules


  • No cheats or modifications affecting the gameplay mechanics are allowed. In case you don't have the A8 Championship unlocked, you can use the world class cheat, but nothing else.
  • Each day has to be completed without any retries, even if you don't finish the rally (in which case you're ranked last in the final ranking of the rally you didn't finish and you must wait for the next rally).
  • Making major cuts which grant a significant time advantage is prohibited and will be punished (i.e., please drive as cleanly as possible)
  • Players may choose any no-cheated A8 class car and must stick with it until the very end.
  • UI, camera view and other game settings may be freely changed by all competitors.
  • Service area car setups and the transmission mode are up to you to decide.
  • Most importantly, have fun and take it easy. It's all about friendly competition!

Quick update: this thread will be updated only on the weekends. To be updated daily, please go to this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WLtr_eQwDEx2vuVmBKmAS6WYmD-4qSx1a0-LWfVW7oA/edit?usp=drivesdk
And one more thing: I allowed SpartaninMigger to join the contest, so there are 7 competitors now.

And so we're done with the first week of the contest! It's been an absolute banger so far, couldn't have wished for anything better, in all honesty Very Happy
As promised, here is the summary of the past week, in form of daily updates posted on the Discord channel (they will continue popping up until the very end, so make sure you're there!):
Spoiler:
As you can see, there's no summary of the first day, but that's because everything had already been updated on the official progress spreadsheet! You can find it here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WLtr_eQwDEx2vuVmBKmAS6WYmD-4qSx1a0-LWfVW7oA/edit?usp=drivesdk Of course, it is updated daily Smile
Stay tuned for the next weekend and another dose of updates (or, visit the Discord server and you'll get this and even more, daily!). Later!
