Did DMcallis ever find you last night?

He messaged me about how to find this evnet, but I didn't get back to him in time :(

You might want to emphasize in all of the OPs who the host room will be opened by for anyone new showing up.

Where are those darned community features?  I really can't wait 'till we can do shared account rooms more easily!  (hopefully that will be part of the new patch coming sometime this month)

Yeah the update will probably be out at the same time the Red Bull Challenge opens up on January 1rd 2014.  ^-^

PD certainly has come along way.  It used to be that things would be released soon.  now they are time travellers.

Edhellonde uncovered a statement from PD stating that the Jan 1st reveal of the 2nd round of Red Bull events was a typo, not a delay.  And their comment solidifies logically that there must still be an update planned for January.  That's what I was referring to.

If DM sent me a message last night I didn't see it :( (if you're reading this DM and you did PM me, my apologies for not replying!), I was actually looking for a room number to post last night but couldn't find one which I wonder is because it was a Private / Friends Only room rather than a public one.

I've been hosting a lot since GT6 but hopefully when we eventually get that community patch we'll be able to go back to using Host Tuna for hosting evnets in like before, next week I'll try and remember to post a reply on the thread to show who's hosting to avoid confusion :).
