If u feel like it, cast your vote. I already did, i voted for the only sim with tyres that aren't made of stone and do actually flex because they are made of rubber.

[(-Mark-)]

Most of the nominees are to do with rFactor..

really fair that

[KiDCoDEa]

rfactor takes almost every option in at least 2 categories, its funny :D

[nihil]

But the "best sim money can buy"? LFS is unbeatable for twenty-four notes, but if I had an unlimited pot of money.... Anyone know what could claim to be the ultimate contemporary simulator?

[(-Mark-)]

may aswell be the rFactor votes (featuring better sims but screw them)


*rant over*

Not the kind of awards I was expecting from autosimsport :shrug:

[Forbin]

What do you expect from a publication that somehow came to the conclusion that the BMW Sauber F1 is more realistic in rFactor than in LFS. :pillepall

[Bob Smith]

Not many there I can legitimately vote on, tbh don't keep tabs on the rest of the simracing community.

[ATC Quicksilver]

Well its biased and poorly done...thats exactly what I expected from autosimsport :thumb:

The categories are crap for a so called simulation e-zine, where are the questions about physics? Best online racing? Most improved developer? Best car models? Best track designs? Most enjoyable? Best community? Most Potential? ...this list goes on, it wouldn't have been hard to add a few extra polls so that people who want to buy a simulation racer will know which is best in the area they enjoy.

[keiran]

This vote is a bit screwed up. If Other wins the vote how the hell do they plan to advertise the winner? :s

Not to mention the fact that Victor won sim personality of the year and isn't even featured in the vote this year...

[(-Mark-)]

i dont get how you can have other.. it doesnt make sence.. what if other gets the most votes?!

the winner of 2006 is...

OTHER! :really:


Edit: too slow :(

[Forbin]

Other is for people like us protesting against the poll. :D

[(-Mark-)]

i say that anyone who hasnt voted should vote for others.. see if we can get others to win..

[nihil]

i say that anyone who hasnt voted should vote for others.. see if we can get others to win..

That's already where my vote went....

[ATC Quicksilver]

I predict in 10 years time the list of previous winners will be as follows...

2005 Live for Speed
2006 Live for Speed
2007 Live for Speed
2008 Live for Speed
2009 Live for Speed
2010 Live for Speed
2011 Live for Speed
2012 Live for Speed
2013 Live for Speed
2014 Live for Speed

At that point the only options will be LFS S1, LFS S2, LFS S3 and Other

[Da Fish]

Heh heh, i can't help thinking that other is gonna be a resounding success. And LFS is already miles ahead in the best sim awards, untouchable really, which is where it should rightly be!

But the most anticipated mod is hardly applicable to LFS, cos unless your are in the LFS community and look at the forums, you will have absolutely no idea that there is an update on the way (like the eagerly expected S2 V patch!). And we can't really say anything about the best mod because there haven't been too many mods this year, just fine tweeking of the original ones.

But being biased towards the GREATEST driving sim of all time (which is only gonna get better!!!), I was horrified to see the lack of LFS in each category, almost like a conspirasy, fed up with LFS winning everything, and rightly so, for years before.


But other is the only option we LFSers have and it is going down a storm, so I urge everybody to keep voting other where there is no LFS, and we will win a moral victory, YEEEEAAAHHHH :D:D:D

[ATC Quicksilver]

It would be fantastically hilarious if only Live for Speed and Other won all the awards :D

[(-Mark-)]

Other is winning in the best site award

vote for others in it (as it contains Live for speed site) :D

and Most Anticipated Simulation

could be lfs s3 :P

[tristancliffe]

I found a secret extra question

Q: Who is the most annoying sim personality of the year, who may or may not have buggered off at the first sign of trouble for 6 months, neglected his community, and has a fanboy base of 4 who claim it's a bugless, lag-free, perfectly simulated experience

A: Kunos
B: Stefano Costalotto
C: My Arse
D: KidCodEa :p

[Barroso]

other ftw!

[KiDCoDEa]

hehehe naughty ;)

[(-Mark-)]

117 votes.. rFactor 15 :o

woopwoopwoopwoopwoop!

PS, good to see the GPL 1969 Mod getting a good chunk of the "best mod" votes :up:

[Da Fish]

Ha ha, what a slap in the face it would be for Autosimsport if it was LFS which won best simulation, and other scooped up all the other prizes, DAMN GOOD.

MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!!!!!

[Gabkicks]

what did you guys vote for for best mod? i am thinking ctdp 05 mod for rfactor... but the 1979 mod is supposed to come out soon. so i might wait till that comes out before i vote:scratchch

Driver's republic for most anticipated sim :)

[sil3ntwar]

I would have voted the V8 supercar mod for GTR2 if it were there. I voted other instead.

[Leifde]

LFS - 160 votes
GTR2 - 27 votes
rFactor - 22 votes

I think that says something about LFS, don't you? :D

[ajp71]

Like the first question - Best simulation (old or new -ask GPL) - *GPL not on list*

...and how other seems to be winning on Q2 and 4

...and I think Racing Legends should get the award for the most awaited sim seeing as it was started before computers were invetned :doh:

...I can understand not listing last years winner for the personality award but come on there are two other devs and other people in the sim community other than rfactor/$imbin people.

[Gabkicks]

yes... that the lfs fanboys got to A.S.S before the rfactor and gtr2 ones



I think that says something about LFS, don't you?

[Da Fish]

...I can understand not listing last years winner for the personality award but come on there are two other devs and other people in the sim community other than rfactor/$imbin people.

Yup, it does seem to be VERY VERY biased towards R-Factor, and having shelled out for it last year, i have to admit i wonder why, as i had a S1 license years ago, and never really worked with it, but after trying r-factor i wish i had rally put the effort in with S1!!:thumb:

[Ingolf]

My vote supports eehr.... you know what :D !!
At the moment 2/3 do... lets bring it up to 3/4. Gogogo-----> :lfs:

[Greboth]

easy voting there
LFS and then other, other, other . . . . . .

[Flycantbird]

LFS: 203
GTR2: 42
NKPro: 12

other sweeping the remaining catagories: priceless

[Hankstar]

"Other" on 61 votes for best mod, "GPL 1969 Mod" on 59 votes. pwnage :) :up:

[Dajmin]

I went and stuck my votes in as well. Since the only other game on the list that I've played is rFactor I can't really comment on them, but I'm a die-hard LFS fan anyway.
I could only actually vote in 2 of the polls, but I figured I should at least try to help boost LFS' reputation :)

[danowat]

What a CRAP poll, clearly steered towards the blinkered RSC/rF masses, only one worth voting on is the first one, which clearly is LFS, I like other sims, but there is only ever one clear winner IMO.

[GianniC]

-LiveForSpeed: votes: 279 = 58.490566037736%

-Best Sim-Racing Website of 2006 - Results
Where the hell is LFSW ? Refused to vote in this categ. cause there is no LFSW.

-Other categ. I voted other, don't want rF to get votes ;)

- Best sim - price: Voted for LFS of course.

[AndroidXP]

What a shitty poll. The designer of this needs to be shot. I mean, wtf are these percentages?! 58.403361344538%

Never heard of rounding, eh?

But to be honest it doesn't surprise me, as this one comes from a magazine that calls itself ass. It's kinda fitting actually, they're surely trained in buttlicking and producing waste.

[frokki]

Not to mention the fact that Victor won sim personality of the year and isn't even featured in the vote this year...Maybe that's exactly why..

Knowing how muh ASS has been praising him, I was really surprised that Swedish developer of Drivers' Republic, Eero Piitulainen, wasn't even nominated. Propably next year then..

Live for Speed Votes 409 or 57.850070721358%
Edit: 437 or 58.974358974359 Go :lfs: =)

[KiDCoDEa]

yep, just got official confirmation after going to the bathroom, lfsw and lfsf is Other.

[Boris Lozac]

I just went to rFactor RSC section, and there isn't any thread like this.
That can explain the lack of votes for rFactor.

[detail]

What will they do if "Other" wins in any category? :D

[keiran]

Maybe that's exactly why..

and thats a reason because... if your going to have a public vote on something which is supposed to be the communitys choice why not include him or one of the other two developers?

Alonso won the F1 title in 05 but they didn't exclude him from the championship in 06...

[ajp71]

lol the problem with any poll like this is it just turns into an intersim popularity contest :D

[Bob Smith]

Dunno, but I will wet myself if it does. :D

[Hankstar]

Pics please Robert :nod:

[ajp71]

Was amused to see that more people are looking forward to Racing Legends than Blimey's revolutionary new sim with a brand new physics model (95% of which is copied from the ISI engine).

[axus]

BHMS always do better awards. This is funny shit though. :D LFS is on 71% or something now. ;)

[Veracious]

Had another round of votes (just clear the cookies)...

A pretty pointless poll then if you can vote multiple times :scratchch

[AndroidXP]

Was it really necessary to publicize this? Al least you could've had some fun by letting "Other" win, but now the word is out and it will be obvious the results are faked. :rolleyes:

When has ASS ever paid any interest in the LFS comunity ;)

[AndroidXP]

It's not like they'd find this thread here, but seeing LFS win by 80% makes it kinda obvious (even if it's true :p). Then again, I really don't give a turd about an ASS poll.

[BuddhaBing]

Somebody must have written a script to automatically cast votes in this poll. I've just seen the rFactor vote count increase by over 500 votes in the space of a couple of hours. Edit: it's now increasing by about 10 votes per second and the GTR2 vote is also increasing at about the same rate. What a joke.

[axus]

ROFL. Idiots. ASS are going down for this poll, methinks.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I blame ASS because they provided live results. They have only themselves to blame.

Isn't human genes 99% the same with shimpanzees :razz:

[deggis]

They didn't see "Goo" as a sim personality at all because it isn't included?

[kurent]

Sure, let's all vote for LFS in the "ass" awards. :D
