I think our Hall of Fame for BATracer should include WCC titles as well and list the team members of those winning teams

mjk is right: There's too many stickies on this board, and if someone needs to find the first non-sticky topic it has to scroll down a bit.

You can also fuse some stickies into a sigle one gathering al the information

Thanks for the feedback, guys. :)

I agree about the stickies issue, therefore I'm going to group the the F1 video and picture libraries into one F1 multimedia thread. Also I'll unstick the F1'06 reviews-scores-discusion thread since it is dead and the players are using the other thread to post their times and ideas. In addition to that, I'll unstick some of the dead topics.

As for the Hall of Fame, I'm working on a new design for it, so please bear with me. ;)

maybe the 'official resource thread' and the 'multimedia thread' could be combined into one thread since the 'resourse thread' allready has a subsection category of multimedia

Hmmm, regarding the special achievements, how about we host a yearly "F1PU Achievements Awards" once or twice a year? Categories could include stuff like what kipi suggested: most active member, most active officer, best news, best news bringer... And the winners will be inducted into the hall of fame, what do u guys think?

I think we should have a "Mini Champions" section in the Hall of Fame. Mini games will be held by officers, eg if theres a mjor test session, we could start a "what will the fastest lap be?" contest and the whoever guesses closest will be put in the Mini Champions section. :) IMO this would work well between races as there isnt alot of organizing to be done. Anyway let me know what u think

Yeh unfortunately theres not much we can do about that. During the off season theres little to no news, and we cant force members to post. Im certain that when the season starts and when we get LOTS of union activities going, we will have lots of ppl posting again :)

I was a bit worried about the falling activity in the union due to the off-season period, but I agree w/ mjk that the union is doing very well even though it is off-season, I'm really glad! :)

Regarding the hall of fame, I want it to be something very special; somehting that includes select only few of those who ahieve really special stuff on the union. For example, we can't induct all F1PU BATracer's champions as the list will get filled very quickly, but we can induct the those who are like 3-4 times champions as that's a really special achievment.

As for the "F1PU Achievemnts Awards" contest, I'm going to send the officers a message very soon to organize the event ASAP.

We are doing really well. We have between 300 & 500 views per day (Viewcounter is on the Homepage) Just a pity we dont have between 300 & 500 posts per day eh? :lol:

Maybe once a year is too long and once a month is too much but every quarter or three months is good.. and at the end of the year, the most quarter winner becomes the yearly champion and the rest can get honorable mention? what u think?

oi bugger off its my tea!!! :lol: Ive got an idea regarding the Vision Championship. Basically theres an extra point to be won for predicting lastest lap. This could work in a few different ways: 1) 1 point for predicting who gets it or: 2) 1 point for predicting as near to the fastest lap as possible and 2 points for guessin exactly right. Im sure theres lots of ways we could do this but those are mine, and i like option 2 better :)

do you mean who gets the fastest lap or the lap time ??mjk1

depends. Option 1 would involve us having to predict the DRIVER who gains the fastest lap

option 2 (completely separate idea from option 1) involves us having to guess as close to the fastest lap as possible.

Example: Fastest lap is 1:30.546 I guess 1:31.2xx, some1 else guesses 1:29.7xx and a final person guesses 1:30.4xx. The final person wins as his guess was only 1 tenth off the official fastest lap.

Hope this clarifies this for most ppl :)

That's what we all want, but unfortuntaly Gamespot does not give unions that privilege. :(

Therefore, I was thinking of creating special tags/emblems that the members can put in their sig. For example, if a member wins the most active member award on the union, then he'll get a special tag/emblem that he can put in his sig.
