Sounds like a ping kick maybe.
if you are on wifi you could try cable if possible.
there are possibly other options to check out (like vpn) but yeah, not much to be done i guess

#

i'm on wifi, but the conection is really strong, i was doing lobbies 10 minutes apart and nothing happened

#

i'm grinding elo for the DTM and it's impossible if i keep losing this generational amount of points randomly

cerulean surge
#

wifi has way higher potential of ping spikes despite a good connection.

modest ivy
#

how can i get around it?

teal wyvern
#

Change to cable

modest ivy
#

i can't just drill a hole between the ground floor and the first floor for a cable

teal wyvern
#

Sure you can 😁

#

How about those decices that routes thru electric socket?

modest ivy
#

is that even a thing

teal wyvern
#

Could be

modest ivy
#

i doubt cable connection can come through a socket, but i'll give it a look ig

I dont know what witchcraft that is but it says so. Not sure how good it would be

modest ivy
#

hm

#

i see quite a few people have this issue, wouldn't it be wiser to raise the limit? or give some more time to the connaction to get stable?

teal wyvern
#

It causes issues in server itself if connection is lost for too long time. Makes everyones experience worse

#

Just find a way to route the cable and you should be good then

modest ivy
#

yeah but i'm not losing connection, i'm not lagging at all, i can have wheel to wheel racing cm apart with no issue

#

come and get me discord ahahahaha

teal wyvern
#

Its enough to have one too big ping spike to lose connection

modest ivy
#

yeah i see that

#

which is unfair

cerulean surge
#

That's online racing. everything can happen, just like in real life (engine failiure for example)

modest ivy
#

yeah i get it

#

but i wasted 15 hours of my existence

#

if not more

#

it would be to nice to be true if i could get the points back right?

cerulean surge
modest ivy
#

no i lost hours of sleep

cerulean surge
modest ivy
#

is it like, we can talk about it or more like never in a million years

teal wyvern
#

Not gonna happen

#

It would need recalculating quuuite many results to get it corrected

modest ivy
#

nah like

#

i lost 63 points, i get them back? if you deem unfair all 63 for some reason at least some?

#

it's such a huge amount of time and effort that got wasted really just randomly...

teal wyvern
#

Been there done that. It happens.

#

Maybe you learned to be faster in those 15 hours, so its not all wasted time

modest ivy
#

@cerulean surge is it a def cry about it? nothing to be done?

There was only one time in ranked history when stats were recslculated. But that was due to a full month of data loss.

# cerulean surge There was only one time in ranked history when stats were recslculated. But that...

i understand what Ville is saying, if i had the restored elo from the beginning i'd have gained slightly less during the next races (that should only count a 30 points loss tho as the second time was the latest race i did) i'd say it is reasonable to hand some sort of refound, seen the amount of points lost and time put in, especially if you say it's not like something it's forbidden...
So please, if we can do anything at all about it let's do it 🙏

Keep in mind that everyones rating is connected. If your rating woul be recalculated, that would mean that every drivers in that race meeds recalculating and the races you and those did after need calculating and so on. It escalates really quicly and se drivers/results involved in calculating could be thousands already. So it will not happen

modest ivy
#

i was more proposing to just hand in the some of the elo lost if not all without recalculating everyone's elo that should make everything a lot easier

#

and even with the calculations made, it was done before so it's a possibility

cerulean surge
#

it was done once because of an extreme case. it won't happen just because someone had a disconnect or 2 😅

modest ivy
#

which doesn't seem entirely fair, my point was, if it can be done then why not doing it :/

cerulean surge
#

because it is not you involved. and not only you who has a kick here and there.
elo is connected to everyone. you can't just insert 30 points, that doesn't work like that^^
anyway, it won't happen and that's it

modest ivy

alright, thanks anyway
