I realised I missed a few posts in the thread.
I have tried out the race in an actual large/sparse universe and will be sending the files + race to skoormit.

mrvan wrote on Tue, 02 September 2014 12:16I doubt large/sparse will have much better results than medium/sparse...
I did my 1st test bed in a small packed universe.. Was quite happy when I crossed 15k by 2450, before I realised we are playing a sparse universe. Had to change my race entirely.
I then tried out large/sparse with 8 other AI players to get a feel of how crowded the universe is going to be.
I did get slightly depressed looking at iztok's and mrvan's messages.

It turns out you can actually get 31k@2450 in med/sparse (acc) with a race that I think should be quite workable
and looks like iztok just about touched 20k as well.
These guys are scary.
For others to try out how cramped your surroundings are, here are the def file settings with 8 other players.

Ok, will redo.
Theval, you're good... I don't think you need to do that.

I have a feeling it is being delayed do to lack of communication. I emailed Xapbob and he is waiting for files. Maybe Skoormit is waiting for communication with the host or forgot he was going to forward race files to XAPBOB.
Inquisitor80 if you want someone to take over host responsibilities let me know.
Apparently communication has indeed misfired.
My understanding of the race validation was that the race used for the validation check need not be the race used in the game. The point of the validation was just to make sure that the *player* was sufficiently competent with AR to meet a certain production benchmark, so that the game is not unduly unbalanced by the presence of a player unfamiliar with AR submitting a race that can't keep up.
As such, I was not under the impression that I should send the race files to XAPBob.
And on a final note, the host himself has not yet qualified for the game. Though I can't speak to what that delay might be due to.

It has been quite some time already - shall we go ahead and start? Certainly we can wait until Inquisitor makes a final decision on whether he plays or not.
