Hawaii Skill level 3 back to a 1 in just one race

Well last weekend I was a 3 skill level. It must of cost me well over
a $100.00 to get to that level. Then with one race after being run
into and pushed into the wall, then while limping around the track
smashed into again and sent spinning into the infield I'm now a level
1 again. Its kind of a shock to log on and see that kind of injustice.

Well you're not alone.  There has been a major problem with the skill
rating system this last week.  I know guys that were 13's and now 6's.  I
was a 9 and then next time I signed on was a 3.  Guys who were 6's now
0's.  Something is happening but I don't know what.  It's kind of hard to
do pickup races with High level guys if the skill systems is in a funk.

You cannot drop more than 1 skill level per race.  There may be some
screwy things going on with their rating displayer, but it isn't
permanent.  Don't worry if your skill level doesn't look right.
Eventually they will get things worked out.  The only inconvenience is
that you won't be able to enter races that you would like to because you
don't qualify.

I must be missing something..... am I the only one thinking of this?>..

Maybe Papy is testing their new rating system.   If someone has a skill of
9 but has only raced Talladega, then they have 9 at Tally, and 0 at the
other tracks.    Could what you see be the average rating over all the
track types????   9+0+0+0+0 div by 5.   (there were 5 types, right?)
I forget easily - in fact, forgetting is the easiest thing I do...  :-)

No, the skill system had some problems over the weekend. I don't know if
it's been fixed or not. The last time I tried to log on, the scheduler was
down.
