There where several outtakes of the network connection and the power over the weekend. After that there where some trouble with the database. This should be fixed by now and the situation should be stable. |
| PHP issues are fixed (we think!) | 2004-12-25 17:37:29 |

After several days of downtime we finally managed to get GPLRank fully up and running again. |
| More PHP issues | 2004-12-25 17:30:53 |
| Author: Ed Hut |
GPLRank is currently not functioning correctly due to some issues that arose during a PHP upgrade. At the time of this writing, selecting a menu option results in the error "Unknown or unimplemented request "n""
Please watch this space for updates about the issues. |

After an upgrade of the PHP version that we use for GPLRank, an error message is shown when you first access the website and select a menu option. After that first error you can just try to select the option again and everything is well (at least, as far as I know).
I think I know what is happening, but it'll take some time to fix it properly. Till then, sorry for the inconvenience.

| New shift method - H-stick with clutch | 2004-12-12 08:45:14 |
| Author: Ed Hut |
On request of several drivers, a new value for shift-method is added: H-stick with clutch.
This value is added to differentiate drivers that do real shifting with a clutch, probably including heel-and-toe action to blip the throttle when shifting down the gears, from drivers that use a stick with automatic clutch.
I've been told that the heel-and-toe drivers prefer to be called 'men', whereas the auto-clutching drivers should be called 'boys'. Being a paddle shifter myself, I guess they would call me a baby... |
| GPL65Rank version 2 is on | 2004-10-23 15:31:17 |

The wait is over, version 2 of GPL65Rank has just gone live. The benchmark time for Clermont Ferrant 65 is set at 3:22.238. Next update of this rank will be if (or should I say when) the 65-version of the Nurburgring is released. |
| Database maintenance | 2004-10-19 16:41:24 |

Earlier today (October 19) the database ran into trouble and messed up some of the indexes. Because of this, uploading laptimes resulted in 'duplicate key' error for the laptime history. The laptimes themselves have been stored, but the handicaps weren't recalculated.
I have done a full recalculation of all handicaps. There were close to 100 handicaps that were updated by this recalc. |
| Even more criteria in MCH !!! | 2004-09-18 08:01:25 |
| Author: Ed Hut |
Multiple Choice Hell has been enhanced with even more selection criteria. You can now also choose shift method and brake method. Furthermore, the buddy selection is now extended so that you can also select drivers of the leagues that you are part of.
Of course these extra criteria will only be usefull if as many drivers as possible enter these fields in the account information, so everybody is hereby invited to do so with the edit account option. |

I'm going to have to take down the server today at about 3:30 PM Eastern time, possibly for the rest of the day.
We should be back on the air late tonight. |
| GPL65Rank is here! | 2004-06-04 18:33:02 |
| Author: Ed Hut |
The first version of 65Rank is here! Note that it is a 'first version' because there are changes
foreseen. For example the Nurburgring didn't have the chicane just before the start/finish line
in 1965. When a version without a chicane is released it will replace the 1967 version in the
GPL65Rank.
In addition, a very much-awaited track is GPLEA's Clermont Ferrand, which has been in development
for a long time (I can assure you that the project is still alive and work on is still ongoing).
For now, GPL65Rank will include
Charade Clermont-Ferrand 1970.
In an earlier announcement we wrote that we would start without Clermont, but we think that the 1970
version of Gilles Sauthon should keep you busy for a while and according to the ratings in the
GPL Track Database the Charade 1970 is pretty good.
Congratulations to Welf Mandelkow for being the first driver to top the GPL65Rank! |
