Does anybody want another YBW race with a bigger fleet? If so, can you wait for the current ybw race to finish then we might be able to rustle up maybe 15 to 20 boats. :cool: ]]> Race Game Forum Dipper http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=220237 http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219993&goto=newpost Tue, 17 Nov 2009 14:29:48 GMT Of the hole:confused::confused::confused: Of the hole:confused::confused::confused: ]]> Race Game Forum Spyro http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219993 http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219824&goto=newpost Sun, 15 Nov 2009 19:43:55 GMT I know I originally said 2200hrs but I'm proposing 2100hrs, is that OK for everybody. In case I have any problems I have a DC set to execute at 2100 and 2 secs. I think that is close enough.

As the weather looks really bad for a re start for at least 4 days does anyone fancy a timed start next monday night we could all set DCs and start at the same time about 98 hrs from now looks OK. If anyone is up for it I suggest next Monday night at 2200hrs We could check in anytime on the hour beforehand and set an accurate timed delayed start.
Hopefully this would give most people that have started a chance to finish if not we could delay the start if the weather is suitable and they want to take part but are still racing.

If you wondered how he always wins or comes very close.
Personally I think it should be kept simple and on a level playing field, use what you have on the screen i.e. polar diagram, future weather and your own instincts. ]]> Race Game Forum Spyro http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219126 http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219067&goto=newpost Sat, 07 Nov 2009 18:46:29 GMT Very nearly first! :) And well done Dipper for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

And well done Dipper for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. At one time I was first (never been that before) then dropped to second at which point I decided to sail 180° in the wrong direction. I managed to get back up to second when I then took a shortcut which meant I missed the mark. :o

I'll know better for tomorrow's race - I hope. ]]> Race Game Forum Dipper http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219067 http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=218589&goto=newpost Mon, 02 Nov 2009 18:51:47 GMT Doing the transat, i'm still 2700 nm away from plymouth but it's saying that i'm 60th alongside boats that have done a lot more miles.

Becauseiti is timed, does that mean i'm further ahead on elapsed time than they were in my position? ]]> Race Game Forum monkfish24 http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=218589 http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=218587&goto=newpost Mon, 02 Nov 2009 18:41:12 GMT Congrats Alistair, 2 in a row.
