In my opinion we need rules for the situation, a Race didnt start or stopp by a bug/crash. The admins make a great job of course, but the communication should be better in this situation.
Its a online game, and if this happen, many of us make some other things and take a look time by time. But not every 30 seconds.
So my suggestion: A short information in the race and game chat, the race start or restarts at **:** so everybody can be there. In my opinion it is okay to start in 3 or 5 minutes, but imeddiately is hard to be there for everybody woh wants to be there.

Sometimes I have the time for that, sometimes I don't. And if the game restarts automatically strongly depends on the kind of bug. Here, I couldn't be sure, if my fix works and speed of fix was most important, as around 20 teams were waiting for the game to continue.

yeah, its like this most of the time, when you fix it immediately, it doesn't matter to announce the fix. But if it takes time to fix it, it sometimes isn't clear what exact next step solves the issue, the game just continues when the issue is resolve, "we" dont push on some kind of restart button. I can understand that sometimes this is a bit of an annoyance but as alk rode, fixing the issue has a higher priority.
