He does use your spreadsheet. As he explained to me last night, when he ran the spreadsheet, it did not have one of the '98 GT1 cars and it crashed.

They have been doing a lot of prep work to get ready for the update, and I think he has told me that his IRL job he gets to work before 5AM, so I guess he was tired and just wanted to get some sleep and was going to try and figure it out this evening. When it isn't your code or your spreadsheet, it takes time to work out what needs to be fixed, added, etc. if something goes wrong. If it had happened for you then it is likely a five minute fix. For someone else, it could be more like a few hours.

As he is a volunteer, just like all of us, I think it is valid that he prioritizes his IRL responsibilities and got some sleep.

As for the PS, there are a lot of people who probably still think we are Firemonkeys or EA or have inside knowledge. This is a global website and there are probably people relying on Google translate to read them. The crystal ball questions can get tedious, but they are a lot better than the troll posts. Sometimes, we are able to read a little more between the lines of the press releases than others due to experience working in business, software development and having a better memory of past releases than others or have a better command of English and pick up on subtleties in the language. Even something simple, like the 2015 Prototype season being necessary to unlock the 2014 Season when they haven't created the 2015 season or moved Endurance Champions yet can easily be overlooked.

I also have a feeling that the median age for this site and this game is over 50, so some people didn't grow up with these things.

I hope you are well. Thanks for reaching out.
