You don't have to join to participate in Hovercraft Racing, Arena Battles, win money in the casinos... just drop on by and say hi.

For those that wish to create any games inside Dual Universe, to flesh out the current game formats, organise gaming events or to referee or judge in events, join as soon as you have read this.

We look forward to gaming with you.

Intergalactic Hovercraft Racing Committee (IHRC) has been renamed to DICE. 

We have a new logo:

DICE will still organise hovercraft racing events within DU. Additionally DICE will be officiating and organising a multitude of other events including arena sports.

The IHRC is looking for representatives from organizations interested in taking part in the racing league we propose. Individuals who want a say can also join.  These representatives will have a say in each rule and regualtion. There will be a ballot created, once we have enough members to cast a fair vote. I am thinking we need at least 10 members to start on this (now at 4).  So legates if you are interested please send us a rep.  Or if you just want to have a say as an individual you can also join.  This is a democracy not a dictatorship.

President of the IHRC

Sorry I havent done much with our page. I plan on working more on it this week. Does anyone have any suggestions of changes that should be made. remember i want this to be a democracy not a dictatorship.  

I plan on having many legates, as soon I can trust you I will make you a legate, so you can make changes to the page or post. I dont want anyone spamming post pubicly, that is why I must trust you first. 

Before diving into rules, I think we should discuss about the purpose of the organization.

During the pre-launch period, we will obviously mainly talk and the organization will be self-sufficient, but what will the committee become after launch?

Hopefully, there will be enough players interested in hovercraft racing, and there will not be concurrence between racing committees, the situation could turn like this:

- Pilots, technicians and sponsors will form teams

- Leagues will build circuits (or choose from independent owners), enrol teams, organize racing seasons, schedule races, keep ranking, advertise, etc.

- On the long run, with civilization expanding, there will be multiple leagues (maybe 1 planetary per planet, 1 stellar per system and 1 interstellar)

- Qualifying to a larger league would be achieved by competing in smaller ones

Leagues should have the same rules, and stating this rules shouldn't be the responsibility of one of them.

That's where the committee steps in, as an unique structure.

The objectives are then clearly given: committee decides the rules, leagues do competitions following these rules.

To have the required authority and stay connected with "reality", I think the committee should have a body of voters made of leagues representatives.

At first it will be cumbersome to have two organizations (IHRC and some sort of "Alioth Hovercraft Racing Association" yet to be created) where one could do, but in the long term I think it's healthier.

What do you think? Feel free to discuss any detail.

Looking for members to help create the rules and regulations, for the proposed "Interstellar Hovercraft Racing".  Would like serious applicants only please. ***Note this is not the organization to join if you want to be a racer.  The rules need to be made before racer enrollment. *** I want everything to be decided by a group, so I need members to continue anyfuther.
