I think that's the same as this https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=6553.msg113245#msg113245But I've just tried to connect to GTL and nothing happened. |

GTL LobbyAs you may be aware, for the past few days, the GTL lobby has been down. We currently do not know if this is a short term or permanent situation. Although we are aware of an available possible software workaround, it is not simple & results seem to be mixed. We feel that unless the lobby actually comes back up, or a simple & effective workaround presents itself, we may have to sadly abandon this race. Therefore we will make an announcement no later then 16:00 hrs BST Thursday 24th September the GTL lobby is still unavailable, this GTL event will be cancelled and an alternative P&G Fun race will be held. ( PnG Barcelona fun race details here) We are sorry that we are having to take this action but we feel it's best to be as prepared as we can. (p.s. I will be online for some practice tonight, be it GTL or more likely P&G Barcelona)

Is that definitely the case Chris? I thought we managed a decent grid with it - Obviously I don't want anyone to miss out (unless it's Ade  ) but I thought we all sussed it pretty quickly? |

We are currently using the fixed lobby patch that "we all sussed pretty quick", that has enabled us to race for the last six(ish) weeks. Trouble is, the lobby is now.... even more broken  & we can't get in. Hence the above announcement. If anybody can get themselves into the lobby &/or connect to our server, then please tell us how? |

Ok I'm with you - so the domain went down before, we bypassed it to get to the lobby, now the lobby's not there to connect to regardless. Has anyone tried removing the patch and connecting?
