Well done Rainbow - very well written and you could tell that it came from the heart. I too felt saddened that we were forced to cease sailing yesterday. I logged onto the VR site & was amazed to see how much they were charging for each add-on. I was also one of those ghost boats after just one leg of the VORG (I couldn't take it there anymore sailing blind)- SOL is so much better in my opinion. I live in Cork, so maybe instead of a F---N-- (is it trademarked?)race, we could race to Cork & back

I still have reservations on the DNF points given. Should someone who made a huge effort for the last 5 weeks on Leg 5 but finished in the bottom half of the race be given more points than someone who just set a course on a Saturday race & then didn't check it again?
btw, my husbands 4th higest race in the rankings is one that he didn't even register for.
I got more points for a DNS & DNF than I did coming 317 in leg 4.
It just doesn't seem right

Hi all
I'd just like to hear comments on the new ranking system.
I don't understand why points are given on a DNS or even on a DNF. It seems to award no effort.
Also, it was nice to see the dates of the races shown in the old system - maybe we could have something set up when we click our profiles to show the races we've done in date order & the points given.
However, at least the new system seems to show the latest top winners at a more correct place in the rankings, which is good.
I'm new to all this so other peoples views would be great to hear.
Thanks all
