EM>the "official" word

EM>There has been some chatter about Papyrus plans for multiplayer
EM>versions of our products in this newsgroup so I thought that I should
EM>start a thread to "officially" open the discussions before rumors
EM>exceed reality!

        Will there be a version of Nascar that can be played on my
office network?(more than 2 persons) Or, must we play through the
Papyrus board?
                        Thanks,
                           Sager

Now that we have Papyrus's ear I thought I would get my $0.02 worth in=20
about the multiplayer system.

1) How about giving access to the Internet to simply watch the races. Use=
=20
the same mechanism that is used in the replay system. Or simply=20
"broadcast" the BIG races over the internet. Where you control the camera=
=20
views, etc... Great way to get new people...

2) Are we going to be able to paint our own cars?

3) I assume there is going to be a chat system for those post race=20
interview's

4) How many races will you be able to run at one time? I assume that=20
after ICR 2 is out that certain prime time's will be very busy. I can see=
=20
this as a possible hair puller.

5) Will there be a season mode? or a mechanism for this?

6) Will there be a track steward to control the "backwards about the=20
track" people?
