RASCAR: For Everyone (especially Eldred)

If you tell someone about RASCAR, make double-damn sure that you mention the fact that they have to register per the instructions on the roster page. I am more likely to verbally slap someone around than I am to repeat my instructions for every new driver (I know, this might come as a surprise to some of you). Eldred: "R_Hromin" did NOT apparently visit the roster page to find out what he needs to do to register. I verbally slapped him around, so you might want to talk to him. -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 RASCAR Roster http://www.paddedwall.org/rascar Barbarian Diecast Collector (490+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================

Rich Hromin is a driver in one of my other leagues. I *did* tell him to check the webpage and let me know his Sierra ID. I just didn't get his ID in time to add it to the invite list. Since I can personally vouch for him, he would have been able to run Saturday even if he hadn't had a chance to 'officially' register...

That's all well and good, (and I don't mind that he races at all, and I certainly don't have any control over whether he does or not), but he was not on the roster, and that could lead to car numbering problems if someone else sees that #11 is still apparently available. There's no reason I should have any more involvment than simply adding someone to the roster pages without having any questions about the new driver. All they have to do is read the page and follow the instructions. If your buddy still wants to race, I'll add him to the roster, but I may have pissed him off (I know, incomprehensible considering my sunny nature and cheery disposition). Anyway, one of you should let me know. -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 RASCAR Roster http://www.paddedwall.org/rascar Barbarian Diecast Collector (490+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================

He still didn't do it right. He did not provide his real name - I happened to find that when I looked at his car file, which btw, has the wrong car number in it (it shows up in the car list as #18). -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 RASCAR Roster http://www.paddedwall.org/rascar Barbarian Diecast Collector (490+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================

Well, since I don't know the context of your conversation with each other, I can't even comment on that. I told him to check the webpage and it would give him all the info he needed. If he didn't...?

Rich is in my N2k league too. You won't have any problems with him. John p.s. He's an alien :) "EldredP" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > In article <[email hidden]>, JohnSimmons

Well, after we went back and forth a couple of times, he hasn't said whether or not he still wants to still be added to the roster. I have all of his info now, but I think I pissed him off. -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 RASCAR Roster http://www.paddedwall.org/rascar Barbarian Diecast Collector (490+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================
