without getting itno detail .. mostly cause they arent all worked out yet.. the attributes in the game each have a max and min setting this year everybodys min were set the same and i used the info you gave me to set the max for season 2 im gonna allow you to adjust your min and max

Okay, by min and max, are you talking about the number of points we have to work with all together or per category? Either way, how is it possible to allow us what our min and max are? If one person has a higher max, won't they automatically kick somebody elses ass that has a lower max?

Yeah Mark the game has something like this

-----------------------Min------------Max
Agression----------40--------------60
etc

Basically with the way the season is done now those numbers are the same so you always run those numbers and as you can tell the same people run up front or in the back in each race. With a min and max the perfomance will fluciate. Instead of running 50 on speedways each time you will run between 20 and 50. So you could run a 20, 21, 22.....or 50

So people will have up and down races and not always up front

I think I understand this, there will be a min. setting and a max. setting for each of the 15 attributes. The way your car runs in any given race is random in the program and between the min. and max. settings, correct?
So there will be a max. number for both min. and max. attributes that will be completely different so that both "columns" can not be set the same?

You know, I thought I had it figured out and then I read what you wrote and now I'm not so sure anymore.

I'd like to see an example of how this is going to work. From what is said, it sounds pretty good, but I wanna see how it works before I start working on it. Of course, theres plenty of time so no rush!

This is the part I didn't understand that you wrote:

"So there will be a max. number for both min. and max. attributes that will be completely different so that both "columns" can not be set the same?"

I understood everything before that. So, Brian and Jared, do we have any control over how we will run with this new arrangement?

to be honest i really dont think attributes matter that much the 10 car and 12 car have the exact same attributes in cup and one is always up front and the other is in the rear of the feild

easy:

now is like this:
....................min max
aggression 50 60

then:

.....................min max
aggression 40 75

in the first set your aggression would only range from 50-60 in any given week. now they range from 40-75, allowing for a greater or lesser total of any week. one week you may get 75, the next maybe 40. its all random, but it uses more of a variable range

not quite

the catigories vary between the min and max right now the minimun is set at 60 for aggression and 50 for evrything else.. so for example right now if your horsepower is 50 min and 75 max on your best day youll get 75 and on your worst youll get 50 most days it will be inbetween by allowing you to add points to you minimun it will allow the cars to run more consistanly because the numbers will be closer between the max and min

but wouldnt making them more inconsistant provide a closer points race, as some weeks youll do bad, then good.

But you didn't answer my question. Are we, the competitors going to send in attributes at all with this new arrangement. I mean, if we did, then if I set a min and max at about 40 and 50 and somebody else set it at 10 and 40, I'm obviously going to run better. So, you are going to set it for everybody, correct?

I think the absolute min and max are already set by the computer ( its the same for everyone ) and we select how far it can range. The more you put to one category, the higher it can go but also it can go just as far lower. So its more of a gamble.

Am I right or is this just a bunch of bs coming out of my dead mind at 12:11 in the morning?

i dont see what so confuseing you will have x number of points to spend on the minium side and y number of points on the maximum side and obviously your minimum cant be higher then the maximum so its the exact same thing thats been done in season 1 only now your doing min and max and not just the max
