New pre-release version of Sailonline race

[Dipper]

Whilst watching the chat screen I spotted that there is a new pre-release version of the SOL game here.

The weather information is much more detailed which could help in our game. I haven't issued any instructions in the pre-release version in case it affects my 'real' boat.

It looks good.

It does look good ....

made a slight alteration to twa - worked fine! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

[Dipper]

I don't know if you saw but you got up to 10th yesterday! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

[Spyro]

Is this a web based one?. If so that is excellent hopefully I will be able to use it from work

 

[Dipper]

I suppose it is but I don't know if it is accepting commands or whether it is just view only.

You have now reached the limits of my computer knowledge. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Spyro]

Furball says it's working

 

[Dipper]

I didn't dare call him that. It would have made him a very dangerous enemy! /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

 

[fireball]

That's it - I'm going to leave you my other spare bucket .... used.... /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

 

[Spyro]

I've tried it. It works and the search facility is good.
The weather looks different. When I look at the new online version my path to the next mark looks straightforward and simple when I look at the other version I haven't a clue.

 

[Dipper]

I thought that as well.

I do wish the doldrums would make up their minds and stick in one place. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

SWMBO may be away during the doldrum passage so I will be able to stay up all night without getting into trouble. And I will also be able to time my mealtimes to fit into the race. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

There is a god /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

 

[Dipper]

She was also away for the Mediterranean part. I am truly blessed! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Mind you, yesterday's supper came at an awkward time and I gybed under duress and ended up aiming for an island.

FYI my norton software flagged this as a site known for fishing and that it might contain malicious data /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

 

[BrendanS]

Norton is crap and overbloated. There is nothing on that site that is phishing or contains malicious data. Post on the lounge, and I'll tell you how to remove Norton, and what to replace it with, and all free software that will do as good or better job, and won't slow down your computer as much

 

[Whitelighter]

Thanks brendan,

I ignor Norton at the best of times. Using the MIL's laptop tonight and she wont listen.

Just thought I would mention it in case any of the site owners received complaints.

 

[Dipper]

You've done it now. He's added another furball to the fleet. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif

 

[fireball]

Ah, but (and I was supposed to keep quiet) this is Mrs ....

the non-ybw was registered prior to the ybw suggestion, so I just re-registered ... now Mrs has decided to join in (a week late) and she's going great guns! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

[Dipper]

Have you got two computers? If not, you're stuffed. You won't get a look in. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[fireball]

I do IT .... what do you think???

 

[Dipper]

Think. What me? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
