Brian Garcia24 should probably drop his update tonight, because I definitely don't have the bandwidth for it right now.

I’ve reached an agreement with the previous moderator, so I’m taking over the reins. Hopefully, nobody has an issue with that 🙂

There’s no such thing as team Bambi. If we're going to list out the full names for every single team, then let's make sure ours is included too.

Is "Bambi and the Molester" considered a full name?

My bad, I was just copying the names from the previous standings and didn't give it much thought. I'll get it right next time. 👍

Thanks. I didn't mean that as a critique, my bad if it came off that way. This F1 Championship season has been a total mess on Reddit too, so since you're finally getting things organized here, I’m asking you to keep an eye on this little detail as well.

The crew everyone seems to worship—the one that basically defines what stability and consistent results look like—is called: Bambi and the Molester. 👍

No worries. 👍
Mateo-nh did an incredible job totaling up all the races so far👍
and I’m betting things will run smooth and fast from here on out 👍

The Championship is getting interesting, both for the drivers and the teams 🍿

The standings aren't final since some people score points without even submitting a prediction, but that's a conversation for another time late at night🍿

👍
I'm against the Joker too. Even though I've already used mine twice this season—and actually won once using it. 😁
But it feels wrong; I think consistency is exactly what should be rewarded. Missing a race isn't some big tragedy; I didn't even play the first two and now I'm leading.
If anyone else agrees, it might be worth considering a rule change, at least for next season.

Brian Garcia24 said:I find myself in complete agreement regarding the joker rule. Even though I have already utilized mine twice this season—including one instance where it actually secured me a victory—😁
it feels somewhat inherently flawed, does it not? To my mind, consistency should be one of the primary qualities we seek to reward. Missing a single race shouldn't necessarily cause such a dramatic shift in standings; for instance, I didn't participate in the first two races at all, yet here I am leading the pack.
If there are others who share this sentiment, perhaps it wouldn't be a bad idea to consider adjusting these rules, if only for the upcoming season.

I'm also totally against using the joker. Even though I’ve already burned mine twice this season—and actually pulled off a win with it once—it still feels wrong. 😁
Honestly, it just feels stupid because I think consistency should be one of the things we're actually rewarding here. It's not exactly a tragedy to miss a race; I didn't even play the first two and somehow I'm sitting in first place right now.
If there are any other people out there who feel the same way, maybe we should look into changing the rules, at least for next season.

Well, you can always pitch those ideas during the off-season, 😁 but most people will probably push back since their goal isn't to make the competition interesting anyway... they'd rather have it as monotonous and boring as possible. In fact, it was their own "brilliant" ideas that almost drove this whole thing into the ground. Seriously, nothing kills a project quite like your own stubbornness and sheer stupidity.

Good luck running the championship.👍

Look, I'm talking about next season. It wouldn't be fair to start messing with things right in the middle of the championship now. Some teams have already used their jokers, while others haven't...
I honestly think now is the time to debate this and make a call on it—that’s what I've always said. We need to do it while the season is actually happening. Once it's over, nobody cares about making changes or improvements, and frankly, interest is already pretty thin as it is...
I honestly think most of them just don't care. It’s all the same to them...
