Knowing that Phil Sousa is stopping his OF1L activities because of work overload! Knowing that we all understand him (he's just a man like us who brought us a fantastic work)! Knowing that we are all sad! Is there ANYONE here who could host a server for us to continue the story???Otherwise I would agree to pay for the renting of a good and stable server (I will check with my internet provider who offers good prices)! [glow=red,2,300]"WOULD YOU AGREE???"[/glow] Also I would agree to take in charge the rosters of the teams + the supervision of the league by creating a new internet site with all the new teams, rules, results, general information and so on... Give me your feedback so I can start the work as soon as possible and if I have people enough already create new team rosters...

great initiative Prenthouse!
You dont think its too much work for you to take care of soo much stuff, like internet site, standings and things?
If you can do this maybe we can go on with all the people we have now. We also maybe can use the same people (if they want to stay) to take care of pens and thinks (andrei, sjonnie and maybe phil). If we re not changing too much i think we can go on without any big problems.
Paying for a good server is a good idea! Me and thomas wanna pay with you, and i heart from more people who wanna pay for it. I only dont think we must force every member of the league to pay for it, because not everyone have that money, and its a free league.
If you let me know what money you need for the server i'll pay a part of it.

nice work Olivier!
i want you to offer my help! and i am agree with you on the server. that will solve 60% of all the problems that we have. the most reason of crashes is lag.
And if we ask money to get a server, i think you get active players! who wants to give money without racing for it. so that will also solve the problem off interactive players.
i think we have to make this paid to make this league work.
Phil was doing a great job to lead our league for free, it cost a lot of time and stress, I have see arrive this, i spoke him a vew weeks ago and ask him if i can do something for him. he asked me if i can do the side and standings but i needed a little help with that, we let it go and not talk about it anymore, thats a shame perhaps this could have prevented become then.
And again! tnx for all your work phil

Hi Elmer,
First of all thank you for your answer.
Of course the aim is to keep the same members (if they still want to)! I think we all want to continue this great online experience with the FSONE mod! I will look asap for a server tell you the price/month. Then people who agree to pay will just need to pay me back against the renting proof (bill). I won't force anyone to pay! It will be a fast private server with password and a capacity of 22 players. I will just insist on the fact that this league must be serious with mature people, not arrogeant and with the willing to do a complete season (not showing up from time to time)! I really understand Phil who saw just the few same people and the others didn't care! It's the least I can ask! I'm thinking about new rules based on real F1 world but this will come later if we can go on...
I know now I can count on you Elmer and put you in the member roster!
Thank you very much.

And again! tnx for all your work phil Hi Thomas, Of course Phil was doing a great job and this for free! But time comes up now where we need to rent a server! I will do my best to find one as soon as possible but I need first to establish a roster with all the members ready to pay with me! I put you in the roster as well Thomas. Thank you.

ok prenthouse, i think its better to not focus to much on the server now, say it if you now the price/month
most important now is who will stay in de league. If we know that we later can look who wanna pay with us, i think the server isnt that problem.
for now the biggest question is, who want to stay in of1l?
maybe you can put a list here with people who allready said they want to stay, and people we dont know.
what i know is these people wanna stay for sure:
Dominic Renting Mikael Tuomaala Joni Varis Olivier Prenten Thomas Orre Jeroen de Meer Elmer Holtkamp
that are only 7 people but i havent talked to other people yet.
i know there are more
so can everybody who wants to stay say it here?
thanks
