Reviving the Weekly Races?

Derry, Northern Ireland

So I saw this mentioned in the discord, and I would like to see a revival of the weekly races, but with a fixed start time. So as far as a time goes, i was thinking saturdays, 3pm GMT (10am EST) The way that was suggested to fix the problem of waiting for like half an hour for one person to turn up was to to have a fixed start time, so whoever was ready at that time, the race would start.

I would love to start doing this sort of thing but my loads still aren't co-operating :^(

Victoria, Australia

Just saw this thread and yeah, that would be 1am on a Sunday for me so... it might be possible?

most of us agree that a better time would be 8-10pm UK time because of time zones etc

I could throw my hat in, but I won't get past Homer.

At this point, anyone who wants to join i would encourage them to do so

Did anything end up coming out of this? I'd watch people try and do a bingo race if I can pick out an awful card for you to suffer through. Not joining of course, I just want to see who would stick it out for the longest.

Also maybe the fixed time thing isn't working out with everyone having work and such. Would be best to just ask around and see when everyone is free instead of having a set race time where very few people (if anyone) ever shows up for it.

I guess it was just easier to set these up before due to there being less people overall and everyone generally being free during that timeframe. Sucks but what can you do really.

Well the whole idea of the races was to get new runners into the community and running more, but since I know literally none of the new runners that may be interested in racing, I would say that if they want to do weekly races they can organise it themselves.

If I was for doing a race I would much rather do it with some of the people that were around when I started running this game, and that would just be something set-up between us, not a set race time.

Yeah I'd say that's fair. We have recently got a burst of new runners I don't know either so its understandable that you'd be less interested in going through the motions of getting everyone in for something like that again.

Don't even get me started on the whole getting people set up on SRL because people wanted points out of it too that was where I stopped trying lol
