Page: Previous 1 2 3 Next

Great! My vote is to apply the last 30 from now! in October -November I have made very good result so I can reach immediate the top 10 ;-)

Joke beside, I think is a fair system, I would propose to add a yearly raking counting the best 10 result overall.
Regards
I support the changes on ranking but I also think that lenght of the race is important too.. I would suggest that longer races should have different weight on ranking..

goblin
good ideas.
but i think there are still ways to weight the races, i hv posted a formula months ago...
rgds.

Could be done relatively easily. I suggest that we first get used to the new rankings before reviewing the situation in a few months.

Good day Incognito and Jakob ;)
there is a mistake in the SYC rankings that occurred overnight : the cancelled NZL eastern leg had come into the count , replacing the SYD Hobart that should not have been deleted from the count , as it was there yesterday . ( this based on new system described by Incognito ) . This error makes quite a difference in the delta points between myself and Jepsom , who now feels only one point still to haunt ..;) ..but it is 14 !!!! ....He will take my lead soon , but would prefer that he does so at the correct time ...LOLOL ...and believe he thinks the same ....thanks ....ciao ciao
PS : same concept applies of course to the weekend race championship ....;)
Yep, that is because for the server the race has started even though no one knows about it!
:D :D :D

Problem corrected. Rankings will be adjusted tomorrow morning as usual.
Thanks Incognito ;)
I beleieve there is more to it ....even if the NZL race was triggered in by the server , following the new concept, the SYD HOB should have not been deleted ....the server acted as before new system in place ...one in one out ....thanks for resolving so quickly .

ciao :)
That is normal. I am making a progressive change from 10 best out of last 15 to 10 best out of last 30. Currently, we are at 10 best out of last 17. This is all done manually.

When Round North Island was unexpectedly added to the SYC ranking, the 18th oldest race, Sydney Hobart, had to be dropped out of the ranking.

When Round North Island will start in a normal way, I will change the SYC ranking to 10 best out of last 18, which will keep Sydney-Hobart in the loop.

Regards,

Francois
Ciao ..... nothing changed ...the only solution is in my opinion to trim at 10 on 19 tonight , after the zilt starts . this will resurrect the syd hob , will keep the NZL waiting for that to take place , and include the zilt . Apologies Francois ....if you feel I am pestering you and this is too much hassle to correct , just forget me and forgive me .....

see you soon ....ciao ;)

Africa by Sea 2025 - Suez to Port Said


When Napoleon (briefly) occupied Egypt at the turn to the 19th C, he ordered his expedition’s Directeur des Ponts et Chaussées, Jacques-Marie Le Père, to evaluate the ancient, derelict, infilled course of a Ptolemaic canal connecting the Red Sea to the Nile via the Great Bitter Lake, versus a new canal to the Mediterranean directly. Neither were considered feasible – locks to climb a pauvre-surveyed 10m sea-level difference, or continuous dredging of the Nile, would both be equally financially prohibitive. Fifty years passed before the unlikeliness of Le Père’s survey finding was challenged and a French Compagnie Universelle du Canal Maritime de Suez obtained a 99-year concession from the Khedive of Egypt, Said Pasha, to construct and operate a canal from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean, much against the will of the Ottoman Sultan, Abdulmecid I (the Pasha’s nominal overlord), and the wishes of the (Irish) British prime minister, Lord Palmerston. The year was 1859, the very number of this race (planning, dear boy, planning!), which, despite the canal’s double-super-tanker gauge and lack of locks, is strictly prohibited IRL. 85nm in Fareast 28Rs to complete your circumnavigation of Africa!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Carnarvon to Dondra


From here, our home in Bharatavarṣa is now north west of us – said Sinbad to his fellow balloonists. Perhaps we can ride the wind first further north, and then catch the winds that every year bring the rain, perhaps not. It’s 2600nm and we could be aloft awhile, so, Master el-Quarters, victuals only, no sandbags, provisioning the giant hamper. It will be not a picnic!
