So I'm sure a lot of you are probably surprised by this, and some of you may have seen it coming for quite some time. But now that Season 6 is over with it comes time to announce that currently we (myself and Darkstar) have no plans to start Season 7 within the foreseeable future. This does not necessarily mean that we won't have a season ever again, rather that we are taking an extended break.
The ORL website will continue to run for you to chat on, and start Unofficial Tournaments if you wish. (though obviously there will be reduced activity)
The reason we have come to this decision is that we are basically burned out. I know that both Darkstar and I were already feeling burned out since at least Season 4. Now with Darkstar not being around I don't really have anyone to fall back on when things get tough, and the league has suffered for it. I'm sure you've all noticed quite a few hiccups this season. I refuse to let that get any worse by starting another season. I'm sure you're thinking "why can't you rely on the other managers?", and while they've done a great job - it's just not the same dynamic that Darkstar and I had.
I should add that my acquisition of an xbox one is not even a single part of the reason for this decision. I know a lot of you were probably thinking "oh he just wants to ditch ORL to play xbox one", but I actually almost completely stopped playing Halo long before the xbox one came out. We came to the decision to take a break from official seasons over two months ago. I have proof in PM's if you really don't believe me.
If you wish to continue official races of any kind I suggest you check out HaloTracks if you haven't already done so. They are a friend of this league and a racing community that has been together since Halo 3. They have a large variety of official races for you to compete in, along with active forums and friendly members (mostly). However, do not try to start any ORL squads on HaloTracks whatsoever. ORL is to remain its own entity.
So whoever you are, thank you for your participation in the league so far. It truly wouldn't have been what it is without you. <3

Fair enough, I just don't get why NJD has to turn everything into a debate instead of putting it the way you did. I didn't mean to turn it to a debate. It just seems odd that you say that you're finished racing, yet you question why your name isn't on most people's list for a racing championship. Also justto be clear, I never once sad that you don't deserve to, it's jus that it looks a little off when you say you're done racing one moment and not the next. Just because I stopped racing doesn't mean people instantly stop thinking of me as a worthy all-star racer. Also I'm still done with racing. I was just offended that it seemed like people forgot about me even though I had more than three races in the season... Like can't someone put me on their list in hopes that I return to racing? -_-

I had just assumed you didn't want to do it (short and sweet way of putting Nj's post) Fair enough, I just don't get why NJD has to turn everything into a debate instead of putting it the way you did.

Fair enough. I'll just assume that's what happened with all the other lists without me too Here's probably the most reasonable reason on why you aren't in just about anyone's list. After the 4th MX race at Victoria Field SX, Pancake had went to the manager's thread of which you posted that you're done with Halo racing. He told me this and I went into speculation. I then asked you if plan on returning next season, and your response was that you're done with Halo racing all together as it isn't fun for you. Now why would you want to do the All-Star championship when you've blatantly told me it isn't fun anymore and you're done with it? Also, the All-Star championship has never been just the best drivers, just the most committed in the league and in the racing community to hep out the ORL. Think, how would GalacticSpartan get in the All-Star championship? He wasn't exactly the quickest by a long shot. My quitting racing should have nothing to do with it, I was just offended that people didn't think I was worthy of the all-star championship. The only restriction was the three race minimum which I met. If Unreal had've started this thread last season I definitely still would've put Rebel on my list even after he quit. I get the whole "all-star is not meant to always be the best drivers" thing. So tell me, how is the person who has been an admin since Season 2 not the most committed person in all of ORL now that Darkstar is gone? Thank you. -XreignZ (trolololol went full Unreal)

Im pretty sure that darkstar did this before but he wanted it to be on the anniversary of the ORL Indeed we have All-Star Championships in February to celebrate the birth of ORL, but I guess this thread can be just to gather peoples opinions on who the all-star drivers are.

It's not very manly to just say the same word over and over...Real men use creative insults to assert their dominance. :] No one here is trying to insult anyone...
