I am being annoyed by Stunna's donation by so much that if nobody else will, I will donate 1€ to make the pot an even number

I was thinking exactly this earlier lol


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - BP - 2014-07-05 22:21

Just raise the pot by 1 to make it even then, I'm sure Pete won't notice when he pays out the prizes Tongue


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - Pete - 2014-07-05 22:24

The collectable badges are designed such that multiple people can acquire them. I reckon at least the top 15 will all get the Gumballer badge whereas only a handful will get 'Around the Moon'. Think in terms of things that many people would be able to achieve but are challenging.


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - Ras - 2014-07-05 22:48

I fixed the donation amount since i agree Tongue


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - Matt - 2014-07-07 18:04

I hate to be that guy...

+1.

As a sidenote-as a general idea for the insim.city-driving gumball page...

It'd be great if it could have an auto refresh every 5 minutes, perhaps?

It would be nice to implement this (through the coding) to prevent everyone else having to do this, but...

Providing you use Google Chrome (I'm sure there's something similar with Firefox), you can download an extension from the web store, like this.

Badges for winners?

I don't see an actual winner's badge there though. Biggrin


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - Pipa - 2014-07-08 10:28

Close enough?

Hm, the formatting of that thread confused me a little bit Tongue

I was just looking under "Badges to collect".


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - Matt - 2014-07-11 21:42

So wait, which tracks are actually being run?

I've heard Weston+Sydney, but also heard AS/WE being tossed around?

Is it really that hard to check it from here.. http://forum.city-driving.co.uk/showthread.php?tid=13116

As we approach the 2 week mark after signups began, we only have around half the number of sign ups we had last year.

Spread the word as best you can!

Probably because it's 20% to win... :c


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - Pete - 2014-07-12 01:52

90% of people will realise they don't stand a chance of winning before they sign up, Matt. Most enter for the fun of it and getting a prize is a nice bi-product. I don't think the prizes will turn anyone away since the prize pool is already nearing €2m.


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - Howlin - 2014-07-12 02:01

Personally, the fun comes for me by setting a goal (e.g to be in the top 10) and doing my best to complete the goal.
The money is as Pete said just something extra to add a little incentive to it Tongue


RE: Gumball 2014 - Discussion - Pete - 2014-07-12 12:12

Quite, my goal used to be top 5, which I managed on 2 occasions but last year I only managed 8th. This year my goal (pretty unrealistic, but a goal nonetheless), is to finish in the top 10/15.
