(this was actually a lfs suggestion once to have some road on a massive map that went to all the tracks in lfs(open world)). i think that also could give some memories of it tbh. "things people will remember for a long time after".
i think that could be worth to consider atleast.

Yes you would in real-life, but it would be way too much to ask for Ice to come on and change the track every-day. Plus we only have 6 proper S2 tracks so they would come around again quite easily.

then i just like to know if i am to use sound so i can hear what others say. which would be best to use. discord or TS ? because i see no reason for using 2. but i think in a gumball i should be able to hear if something up or not. but kinda got lost towards which of the 2 will be the most useful to use regarding gumball information and such?

To be honest, I would just go on what's most popular when you look - I know that when the opening night happens, people should try to come onto TeamSpeak so the marshalls can give instructions for the starting podium (at least this is what it was like in 2017). Lots of people will probably stay on TeamSpeak after this so it's probably your best bet, for the first night at least.

Now, about the server/forum issues. I'm afraid there is not really a lot we can do to prevent this. If you remember last year, we had lots of DDoS attacks on our server which actually resulted in Gumball getting paused. We hope this is not the case again this year but if there are any serious issues, I'm sure it will be paused to make it fair for everyone.

P.S. If you do get forum 520 errors, you can normally just hit 'F5' a few times and it will come back on again.
