Question: Wheres our Affiliates? If we havent got any I suggest we get some :)

And what about a user interface for the unions short description? I'd make one but I dont know how to hyperlink different parts of a graphic. We do need this IMO, all the big unions do.

Yeah we should get some affiliates; that will help in spreading the union's name.
We definitly need a user interface for the union's short description, I'm gonna search for the technical details.

[QUOTE="mjk1"]do you mean who gets the fastest lap or the lap time ??BlaZe_irl

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 :)

wow... too much math... bleh!

Since the union is always growing (nearly at 300 members) and the season is well underway, I was thinking it was time we recruited a few new officers. It would be a good way to reward the ones who stood by us during the winter when there was f*** all to talk about, and I think there are 1 or 2 recruits who could do big things for this union given the right powers. And the more active officers we have the better, makes the union look more serious. Anyway just a thought, not my call, so wont name any names yet.

yeah i'am suprised how little the OT is used in this union....which is a good thing, so that thread can go, also the 'F1 06 game' thread can go because their is F1 CE thread.

We'd normally wait before unstickying topics, buts its been long enough so I'll do it. It can always be put back later....
we did have a videos thread in this union, maybe the vids from that thread can be put into the videos sectionmjk1
As of now we (officers) cant do anything with the Videos section, I think aloushi needs to give us permission, so the thread will have to do for now. Remember, if you have any suggestions on how you think we could improve the union, you are encouraged to speak out like mjk and others have been doing! We aim to please our members but we arent mind readers so you have to tell us what you want :)

I think its worth a mention that we got around 1300 views yesterday, which is pretty immense! And the members were really active yesterday! Im proud of yous :P

Ok some bad news: After the GP 2moro there will be a frickin 4 week break, so there won't be much to talk about, so your dedication to us will be once again tested! *plays dramatic music*

So if anyone has any ideas as to how we can keep this place going over that long haul, please post them here! Best 1 gets a......*thinks*.....eh..a Carlsberg :D

Staying on the union views topic: We are one of the top 25 most viewed unions on all of GameSpot. I think we fell 25th last time the list was updated but we are still up there.

I know it's been said before, but I'm going to say it again:

We need to get rid of some stickys! I can see 3 that don't need to be up there. With 4 of them being able to be combined into 2 topics. This is just off of estimation, I could be off by a bit.

The Headlines thread can go, the rules of the board thread is already in the Resource thread, and maybe the banners and tags thread can go. What d'ya think?

Icytower what are your suggestions?

Of course after I post that I get information about unions v2 that will rearange some things when that happens but let's worry about this first I guess. 

  • F1 Vission Championship can stay as a sticky
  • Enhancements and Feedback can stay as a sticky
  • BATracer stuff can stay as a sticky
  • 2007 points can stay as a sticky
  • Newspaper headlines should be removed as a sticky and put in the resource thread.
  • Banners & Tags needs to be removed as a sticky and put in the resource thread.
  • Introduce yourself needs to be removed as a sticky and put in the resource thread.
  • Formula One Championship Edition should be removed as a sticky and put in the resource thread, see below.
  • Rules & Resource thread need to be combined (name: Rules & Important links).Resources are also outdated, some need to be added and some can be removed.
  • OT is not used so it obviously needs to be removed, maybe make a new one for OT & Introduction.

Well I think I got them all. Due to my absence over the past few months I'd be happy to create/modify any of these topics myself to make up for it.

^^ yeh unions v2 is looking immense, and congratz to sent for pushing GS into giving us the new features! Multiple boards will come in handy :P  But they said the features wont be ready til after e3...

Anyway for now, I agree with most of that icytower. However I think we should keep the introduce yourself thread, and Ive already unstickied ot (a while back)
