    I see SOL as an incredibile learning tool, (not to mention the FUN!!) so as zero pointed out, to know what the tops are doing is a learning lesson. We must preserve that, is the strenght of SOL

    To "protect" the top(do not like the term but did not find any better) from blind "followers" or "fans" I see a nice mix coming out:
    1-name and shame,
    2- a wild card "stealth on request" , to "cut" the tow rope
    3- some periods (start?) with no boat name just dots,
    4- position report every x time bigger than the actual minute...( in ocean race, not in short)

    1 require no programming effort and works,
    2 panic option for follower :-))
    3 this should be easy and funny (you will go for more dots concentration eheh)
    4 will even reduce the server traffic

  • Re: Nations Team Race
    Board » Race proposals
    I have seen that 68% would you like to participate in a teams based event.

    keeping short:
    RC: is possible to run a separate classification in the SWR for team/nation boat if many teams will be present?

    all: anyone want to challenge ITA_2011 as defender for team class?

    informative note: the ITA_2011 syndacate is discussing how to partecipate also this year, so who wants have still the time to organize the team(s)

    More detailed information will be provided later by the Sir Winston.

    These are MY open questions/thoughs
    regards

    you know what?
    to do well, rounding mark...cap... or simply safety (avoid BBQ) a buddy is really helpfull...
    but:
    The few races I won, I steer my boat by my own, just happen that the critical points were right timed with my breakfast, lunch time spare...and sometime to be lucky and be in the "odd" position and WX update push you forward.
    Bottom line: enjoy and hold fast!
