I agree with Schakel. I am one of those who hasn't sailed during the last months because of:
1. I disagree to sail in the same competition as routers
2. the amount of races to sail is to much to keep you up in the ranking

We do agree that WE need time anyway to be hight in the ranking!!!
But for my part I do think that it's a big stimulation to compet with some who r using routers!!!!
Caus you learn a lot!!!

the discusion router - non router is a non discussion. It is very possible to do good in rankings as a non router, but it is time consuming.

To my opinion at least the wiz rankings are missing.( nation+newbie)
To atract newcomers and give them some competition introduce a ranking for them in which they compete 10 out of 20 races
That way they make quick ranking progres against players in the same situation.
Nations cup might be fun as wel.
More divisions may be added but i am fine with the current ranking system

it would be helpful if the dates of the races were listed on the individual ranking pages. then you could more easily tell which races were about to 'expire'

thx

I occasionally post a list of races most likely to be dropped from the rankings. Last one was about a week ago.

Find it here:

As a non-router I think that you may learn more from competing with routers but I think it would be much more fun to compete against non-routers only.
The main reason is that when competing against routers you know that they are going the best route considering the forecast will not change. If there
are only non-routers the outcome of different tactics would feel much more uncertain and the race would be much more exciting.

An easy way to test this is to set up a couple of races for non-routers only. No ranking points for these to start with.

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!

Camel or Balloon - Khartoum to N'Djamena


As there is a lull in the calendar, your PRO has decided to risk an experiment – a balloon race over land, using a workaround to eliminate the recognition of water/land transitions. If it fails, the server may crash, and we abandon PDQ, hopefully after leg 7 of the ABS race to Suez has been decided, and before the start of the 1st OCC of Q4. Camel or Balloon – c 1000 nm from a field on the north bank of the Blue Nile at Khartoum to a field on the north bank of the Chari River at N'Djamena!
