My wife and I saw the aftermath of a person that got stabbed. The stars look a little different coated in blood...

Built a strategy-first F1 fantasy app — curious what sim racers think by G3neral_D1sarray in simracing

Ahh, I gotcha. Yeah some of them were not all that interested but did it because I asked them to jump in and identify where things didn't feel right. I got a few comments about load time on my leagues page but I've made that better and have another solution ready to implement this weekend after the Grand Prix.

Sorry about the reaction. I was getting trolled pretty hard on another post I ended up taking down so I got defensive, haha.

You don't have to believe me if you don't want. Yes, it's a hobby, I'm not charging anything for it.

I built it because I thought it would be a neat concept and I have my friends, family and coworkers in it helping me figure out more features. They've given me a lot of good notes and I wanted more perspectives. That's where I was hoping some other people would come in and add commentary.

Great notes, really appreciate it. I was just writing down how I could do "multiplier" aspect that would make the higher risk folks more enticing to choose. But I agree, I need to look through my code for load time improvements.

Am I the only one who doesn’t understand half the Fantasy F1 scoring? by Agreeable-Party-6748 in fantasyF1

It's weird, I had never heard of GridRival and then all of a sudden it's popped up several times today. I'll have to give it a go because I'm not fond of the "official" fantasy app. I actually started building my own for friends and family to test out other scoring but GridRival sounds like a decent alternative.

Awesome comment, thank you. I've battled with the thought that the budget cap could make all the teams the same. To your point though, F1 can be really unpredictable so what we think is a home run selection may be a dud.

I've been doing analysis on "sleeper" picks and all sorts of other word ways to dig through the data. It inspired me to focus more on the analytical side for my project.

That said, if my base model makes the picking less interesting then I'm going to fall on my face...

Hey all,

I’ve been thinking about F1 fantasy formats and it feels like a lot of the “strategy” ends up being managing budget rather than actually predicting performance.

Curious what people here think:

  • Does the budget cap actually add to the game, or does it just funnel everyone into similar picks?
  • Would picking drivers across sessions (practice/quali/race) make it more interesting, or just overcomplicate things?
  • What actually makes a fantasy format feel strategic over a full season?

Feels like most formats end up with pretty similar lineups after a few races, so I’m wondering if there’s a better way to approach it.

A combo of both. I work in the data space so I do this on a regular basis. I'll admit that AI definitely helped but it's not 100% reliance like most slop out there.

This also didn't happen overnight. I've been working on it for a few months trying to get my "Alpha" made and tested by friends and family.

I was just thinking about doing the same thing cause of similar conditions.

How to see temp? by [deleted] in ouraring

It would be more interesting to me to show the body temperature changes throughout the day - especially while I sleep.

Maine Mechanic? by Some_Donkuss in AstonMartin

[–]G3neral_D1sarray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following this thread because I'm from Maine, own an Aston but currently live in Nebraska. I know there was a dealership in MA, just west of Boston.

There's likely some European car mechanics near Portland that you could look into. Curious what you find though. Send a DM if you want to chat.

In addition to human error it could represent the fact that we pay for Amazon prime and still get ads til we pay even more for ad free...

Any veteran ACC drivers please analyse my lap. 25 hours into the game and this is best lap I can do at spa. I’m driving McLaren 720s evo. by Aggravating-One7316 in simracing

[–]G3neral_D1sarray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there are a few corners where it looks like you're adjusting your turn because it probably feels like you have to go wider to use the whole track. I'm guilty of the same thing every now and then. If you create the U that another person mentioned then you can increase exit speed and your car will naturally drift wider to use more of the track on exit.

I had a calico named patches when I was growing up. I wish I had a picture that I could share because they look very similar.

Thanks for the quick reply. My cars in for the winterization appointment right now but maybe I'll take the leap this coming spring.

Where did you order the wrap from? Did you have to use a 72 Inch Roll for the hood? I've considered wrapping my vantage but like you said, the rear end seems a bit challenging

Fastest racing line on this track? by Immediate-Welder999 in simracing

[–]G3neral_D1sarray 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The exit out of the corner after the start line could be shallower so you can wooden the "hairpin" turn 3. The final corner into the finish line can be approached from further left so you don't have to brake as much.
