Your average Sunday morning Germany NFL game gets triple the ratings of a Saturday night prime time college game. Would people tune into a Friday/Saturday night football game? Sure. Would less people tune in than games at other times -- probably.

I haven't played any Multiplayer, only singleplayer (and my take may be different than yours, as I may be playing at different AI (lower?) than you -- typically 5/6 for me). I don't think an AI driven penalty system can be done particularly well (which is why iRacing doesn't try, and allows for protests with human stewards. However, I don't seem to get penalties very often? I've learned that you are very unlikely to get a penalty for a collision, if you are on the brakes, and turning away from the car before impact. Similarly, if you go off track, getting off the throttle and rejoining immediately usually results in no penalty. Where I do see inconsistency is when I do things like taking a lot of curb in a chicane, where I sometimes get a penalty and sometimes don't. That said, I think a game like this needs a penalty system in the multiplayer -- otherwise it would turn into a crash fest. Unless, of course, it turned on realistic damage (which might be the best solution).

Books Update on The Winds of Winter
AbsolutSurgen replied to Remarkableriots's topic in The Performing Arts Centre
It's been more than 12 years since the last book came out (an even bigger gap than any of the books in The Dark Tower)-- it doesn't matter any more. While I think he could do a credible job of wrapping it up, and having the ending make sense. I don't think that I care enough to pick up the book if it ever does come out. -
Sales & Deals Black Friday Season Deals
AbsolutSurgen replied to crispy4000's topic in The Spawn Point
Completely true. CDKEYS also has the extra bonus of not charging sales tax (which may or may not be a big deal to some here -- I'm at 13%). -
Broadcast TV has always avoided putting expensive content on Friday and Saturday nights, because traditionally it has the lowest ratings -- largely because they are the nights that are most often used for social events rather than watching TV.
