Global Track Central v2.0
Hi guys,
Some of you might remember a little project of mine called Global Track Central (GTC), do you? One of the things I tried to do was solve some of the organizational problems Track Central was suffering from. Unfortunately the site wasn't used too much and it didn't really succeed. One of the reasons was probably the requirement on Windows, IE and Silverlight.
With Fusion I can only imagine that guys like Morillo will be actively pursuing their custom database solutions and I wonder if someone should take on a GTC v2!
Things we can solve with this (just to name a few):
- Single repository for ALL custom trials tracks, TrialsSE, HD, Evo, Gold and Fusion
- Better searching and tagging (e.g. Ninja Level [1..5] and user created custom tags),
- Doesn't contain garbage tracks
- Start a discussion / Post comments for a Track
- Host tournaments
- Filter on platform (XBOX360/1, PS4, PC)
- Filter on DLC pack
- URL for creators (e.g. http://gtc.com/~username )
Have a look at this thread so see how awesome GTC v1.0 was.

With version v1.0 I mostly put out the software and was looking for backers / supporters. The reactions in the forums were great but still GTC never really took off in the community. Maybe I was trying to solve a problem that didn't exist, I simply felt that the Excel spreadsheets and the "<Username> Tracklist Thread" were getting hard to get through ..
What do you guys think? Could this work? Everybody has been bummed by the new TC and I am truely hoping that Redlynx will listen to the community (which I reckon they have always done). However, we will still need the forums to make those expert creators (YOU) stick out in the chaos.
- Would you like to see a better GTC v2.0?
- How should I involve the community, in which way and who?
- What features can you think of that would be awesome?
Feel free to flame my idea's, I can take it.
