I took over as the West Pres. to "mind the store" for KGDRK when his focus moved away from Forza.  At the time there was talk of club consolidation and Cotter and I have messaged back and forth a few times since but it hasn't been high on our to do lists. Glad to see some renewed interest in this.

The West club is the one with the [2O4F] tag.  I don't know how flexible FM4 is with renaming but I'd hate to rename it to 2O4W and find out afterwards that we can't rename one of the other clubs 2O4F.  When the time comes to purge and reconstruct it might be easier for me to promote whoever will oversee the new US Club.

I'm pretty sure we can re-use the call sign if we start over from sctratch. We just have to be sure that the existing clubs are completely purged by the leaders before starting the new one. The east division has the 2O4F call leters, so we'll nuke central and west first. Then, perhaps have snappy nuke the east club xcept for himself. then he & I cna work out the details of transferring official leadership titles in game.

We also need to st a nuke date & change our club desriptions in-game with some details pointing people here before D-day. I figure 2 weeks is decent notice. Hopefully word of mouth will reach those who don't come to the forums often. If not, maybe hey'll wonder why their club disappeared & pop in here to see what the hell happened.Either way,we will move forward with this plan.

Really?  (Checks Club Tag) Ah.  I see what Drk did. He used a zero instead of an O for the West club.  Very clever.

Cool. When y'all have the nuke date set I'll start spreading the word on the West side.

The only ones I can think of that race with us but are not on the forums is Motorhead and Shrimp and Motorhead is in D2NR.

Shouldn't be hard to spread the word I don't think.

Good Idea. That would be acceptable. that should get us through this cycle, then it will be time for FM5 bye the time the newt one rolls around.

Am I the only one who thinks it would be cool if FM5 allowed TWO clubs per person (or more).

This way the "garages" would be possible while still maintaining the "main club".

I think a team and a club system would be cool.  Not going to happen as its rare games include cool things like that.  In fact, im expecting a lot of cut's from forza 4-5.  Its what usually happens when the 1st iteration on a new gen of consoles/games come out

To whom is that post addressed? Don't want any junk! Just saying ;)

And on topic....

I think multiple clubs is a bad idea. 2o4f the website 2o2p clan is enough. In game clubs deal with the other aspect. If we had more complexity I bet we would end up with more in actives and lurkers.

Difficult to manage.

I'll be making a new sticky thread with a link to the new sign-up form as soon as I can get it done. Planning on working it up Saturday morning. I'm also going to broadcast a message to all members via the site here. Maybe that ill catch a few more people too.

 

I'm going to tentatively set the date for D-Day as Wed, August 14. That will give everyone roughly 2 weeks to get signed in before we pull he trigger & nuke the old divisions.

Geez, your terminology's a tad aggressive...D-Day, pull the trigger, nuke...I thought stoners were pacifists. surprise
