'morning SOLgods

As you will have seen from the Zilt race the intrepid matchracers are playing again.

However,last night, I woke about 0130 and changed course to 143d and set a DC CC of 58d. I woke again about 0340 and saw in chat acomment from newsartist of 0303 telling me I was aground.

Attached is a picture of my track which included a flat 90d/100d piece that Ididn't request and then me aground after a track at 58d.

I checked the DC commands tab and the last DC showing was for 100d cc..... but(a) I never set this and (b) that 100d flat track preceded the one I ran aground off which was my 58d cc.

Please can you explain this? I was wondering if I hadperhaps reached the end of sailable chart and the initial bounce just gave me the flat track before my DC for CC 58d kicked in?

If this is the case, then please can we either have a visible sailable boundary OR have the wx chart end with the sailable boundary OR in the race notes on the home page, the coordinates (lat/long) of the sailable boundaries.

Thanks!

As far as I can see you did not hit a map edge. I'm currently a little tight on time so I can't dig into the database at the moment...
Hello Rainbow Chaser,

What I see is that a CC 100° delayed command was created at 1:01 UTC to become effective at 2:31 UTC.

At 2:03 UTC, I see an immediate command to set course at CC 143°

At 2:04 UTC, I see a CC 65° delayed command to be executed at 2:49 UTC.

My reading is that you simply forgot the delayed command that you had set one hour earlier.

Nothing to do with the race boundaries which are at 40° West and 20° South.

Regards,

Francois
Francois, I have to accept your reading of the CCs in the system.

I am not aware of being awake at 0101 and I usually only set one DC at a time off the predictor line ...but... if there is nothing amiss in the server and the command is from my IP address then I have to accept that I made the mistake.

Thank you very much for taking the time to check this out for me.
No indication of any server problem.

The database does not tell me from what IP address the commands come from.

Regards,

Francois
One of mi friends (TENERIFE) and me had problems regarding course: aparently conmuted between TWA and CC with no intervention at all.
And (more strange) I appear logged as Jepsom. Reload and I was not logged at all.
No

I don't know if these issues are related with the one of RC, but I agree with him: something strange is happening with the server lately.
