F1Time - S21 - A Season of Delays & Errors

Traditionally (yeah!! F1Time has got some history now :D), the first race of a new season would be marred with Live Coverage Problems as the server breaks down. But this time around, though the server held true, what happened before and after the race must have given TaBu a big headache. I really donno what happened coz i was not there firsthand. The first problem arose when the season's opening race was scheduled for Melbourne. Everyone was expecting Monza according to the tracklist published at the end of last season. This caused the season start to be delayed another week. The Season finally started on Jan 10th BUT.. after race events proved to be a havoc. The Markets and the other weekend activities happened because TaBu forgot to change the settings to Friday race. The Last Season was lagging 2 days and so TaBu changed weekend processes to Monday. The 2 weeks(infact 3 weeks) delay made noone think of this. It was a tedious task for TaBu to change everything back to Normal. Lots of managers lost their staff, money, the driver's chara and so on. Both script and manual efforts by TaBu for around 4 hours made everything back to Normal. Race2 passed incident free and a server problem caused Race3 to be delayed a day. Race4 too ran smoothly.
