    Ah well: regardlessly you think I am a sl (sissy lala) :-p and irrespectivly I should let go:

    With the reality thing you got me:
    -The finishing line IRL is 0.37nm long; our is 2nm. Why not 1nm or 5nm or 25nm? (well: in the official R&R papers there is not definition of the line either).

    -I couldn't find any ice gates in the game. A terrible lack of IRL, because I wouldn't have taken this stupid decision to go south (resp. follow 76T...hahaha).

    - Why not having a proper IRL start line as well? That should do things quite real and exciting - just in case you are missing out some excitement, Paul ;-)

    No no no: I liked the practice having long finishing lines some time ago (and nobody accused us being not real enough :-p).

    About short races I agree: tricky and short lines are part of the fun :-s

    best regards

  • Finishing Lines
    Board » Races
    Hi addicts,

    In our howto about race proposals it says that finishing lines should have a certain lenght - ocean race for example 5nm and weekenders can be shorter.
    I found that a good idea; after 3 weeks racing missing the line because you cannot finish around a tricky course is not funny.
    Again the leg 5 finishing line is way too short and is situated in a position, that you have to watch your course at least 2 or 3 hours before. I don't like that.
    Hows your opinion?

    regards

    Just had the time to try all the new beta-gadgets. WOW! Agage: you read my secret thoughts! :-P I hope I still will be able to sail instead of just playing around....

    Two things I would like to have changed:

    - at the forecast-slider: the WX-mark could have a different colour

    - the personalized fleet feature: why not replacing the DTG with a Distance-To-MyBoat? Or simply add that...

    Thanks a lot for that brilliant work

    @ Aron: A2R's hint about the shortcut made it. I am now totally satisfied :) Thanks

    @Rod: Scolling & dragging is just fine here.
