''Buy a race''
« on: January 03, 2012, 03:30:00 pm »
All of us have their favourite races and sometimes we ask admins to load them . Why not to use the money to ''buy'' a race so it will be the next one

I like this idea. HOWEVER, we would set some interval so they won't load it too often. Also prices would be not low.

How much should it cost? Do the costs rise when the race is longer? How often are you able to load a race? From what minimal score are you able to use this?

I like the idea.. /duel would get more meaning and people could buy a race with autoban to get cheaters banned..
We should make it once or twice a day then.. per player.. so people choose a race carefully. Or else you'd get people random buying shit races to annoy others.. I don't like this idea getting easily abused.. that's why we need restrictions.

Making time interval is imo pointless anyway. Some poeple do not play whole day.

Makes me wonder if we can push some more ambition into making score.

10k-20k = 1 race per day
20k-40k = 2 races per day
40k-80k = 3 races per day
80k-150k = 4 races per day
150k++ = maybe no more than 5 or 6? (only money limit? can be risky tho)

And the longer the race is the more money it requires.

Who would take the money? The admin that loaded the race? Becouse if it's like that, you can imagine admins fighting with each other for stealing their races (and money) lol

money would just dissappear from your account and server will load the requested race, no admins needed

Not keen on this idea at all. It'd mean that people with less money will miss out on their chance, and it's almost like bribe taking imo... the /track command is admin only for a reason. Which is another point; admins are effectively saving money by loading it themselves, which means non-admins will have another reason to be jealous and think it's all fun and games, and probably pester us about it.

no, wait, idea is not that bad IF gets it right
here what i think (ye, sometimes i do that)

race price based on record time:
example:
DoubleYou
BY MOOMAN
#   Time   Racer
1)   0:13.912   [MAF]Best_fails_2011
LSRace2
BY SWITCH
#   Time   Racer
1)   3:15.910   [2F2F]Mike
1 second = $100
so cost of DoubleYou is $1391, while LSRace2 is $19591

player pays for it, BUT MONEY DOESN'T GO TO admin, (this way we won't have fights between admins or players)
player just spend money for it, server loads ordered race
then admins get a notification about players request, and they can delay race, but not disable or skip it

example:
Quote
player1: /request DoubleYou
[INFO] player1 ordered DoubleYou for $1391
player2: noo, drag ruin my winstreak :(
[INFO] Admin1 has delayed ordered race
-(player2 wins again, 3 win streak)
[INFO] Admin1 has delayed ordered race
[INFO] Admin2 has loaded New_Race
-(player2 lost race, admin doesn't delay ordered race anymore)
[INFO]DoubleYou by mooman
0:13.912 by [MAF]Best_fails_2011 none none TimeTrial
player2: /request LSRace2
[INFO] player2 ordered LSRace2 for $19591
-(admin do nothing, not delaying race)
[INFO]LSRace2 by switch
3:15.910 by [2F2F]Mike none

You forget admins will still have the power to skip lol.

I don't mind this, as long as only 1 player can load a race per say 15-20 minutes, and each player has a limit of loading 1-2 races per 24 hours period.

Credit and Commercial Bank of San Andreas will take care of your money so you can go there and create an account. The bank is located in Rodeo, Los Santos.

Seriously, where would the money go...
Going waste is ok, but other players taking advantage on that... no way.



BTW counting stops at lol68.
