Since I can't find a thread where I can give some suggestions for this guild, I'm making one here. sweatdrop

I'm thinking of suggesting that there should be some prize money given in some important races hosted so that the winners can use it to buy upgrades from guild stores like Parts Emporium. The 1st place winner gets full prize money; 2nd place gets half the prize money, and 3rd place gets 1/4 of the prize money. 4th & below gets nothing. How does that suggestion sound?

And rather than using Gaia gold, perhaps we could use something like "User Guild credits" that are recorded in a special "banking" thread.

Edit: And I think Raevir should make Trophy designs too. ^_^ Gold, silver & bronze.

Yeah, I was definitely thinking of using upgrades as prizes.

Trophies??! Ahh! gonk More work...

I'm hoping to attract more racers before we begin any actual sanctioned races because otherwise it'll be the same people winning over and over again. xd

Oh, you don't have to make the trophies too large. Just make them small size so they could fit on a user's profile page or signature. To prevent art-thieves, perhaps the winner's name should be inscribed on the trophy.

It's best that the trophies are handed only in Official races hosted in this guild. That way, there's no need to make too many of them. ^^

If the prize is in gold, lots of users will flood into the guild. XD So I think upgrade prize is a good idea.

Good idea, and each month we should have a race and the winner gets the month donation item. heart

Only if Raevir can afford it. wink If he keeps making lots of gold through his auctions, then it's certainly a good idea to have a donation item as a winning prize.

What am I a charity?! xd Just kidding, I don't mind fronting a donation prize each month, I'd like to have more racers before any of that starts though... racers that have some races under their belt.

yea, those are all good ideas, but I think that there should be some special races where it's a pink slip race, that is if the people have the guts

Racers can make wagers among themselves, I have no problem with that.

and possibly rare upgrades would be a good thing as well.

not a single mod that grants 500hp or anything, but something like a 160hp gain turbo kit (They exist. made by turbonetics for 350z and G35 on 94 octane).

if it's just a few plus upgrades, the moment someone gets all of them, the fun ends. But, if you can keep getting parts to the point you can get a low-class car to run with the exotics and high-class cars, then there's something to work for known as pure "bragging rights".

I don't actually go into that much detail with my upgrades, but yeah, those are available.
