Ciao Cappy ;) and ALL solers ;)

In my role of Coordinator , I want to answer your well placed point , regarding the tech irregularity occurred on Feb 22nd .

Firstly rest assured that the matter has been tackled immediatly , as soon as first event took place . In actual facts some 16 boats in total have been affected by the event . The SOL Tech engine room and SOL OPS started discussions immediatly , and investigation plans for implementation of corrective actions are in place since about half day through on the 22nd .

I am not the right person to talk about it , but preliminary response is that being the race area spanning beyond the midnight line , when some boats , who eventually lost interest in the race, or lost contact with the boat, and sailed eastbound towards the boundry , actually hit the eastern boundry line , were teleported to the west of the race area , exactly at same latitude , with a 270 deg heading jump .

This software irregularity event would clash with the awareness that since a few years we are able to sail in the pacific , crossing the midnight line , thanks to the efforts of Brainaid , who fixed the previuos problem we had .

We now learn , thanks to 16 solers who dared to go where no man had gone before , that hitting the boundry beyond the midnight line strikes an irregular reaction by the server ;)))))))) ( Klingon server ...not liking that we sail into the neutral zone ?????? ) ....


a part from kidding , I wanted to reassure you that the issue is looked at since the first few minutes , as it happened .....and hopefully will be fixed quite soon ......well ...for the time being we just need not to fly to the neutral zone....;) ;) ;)

And , lastly , we are about to issue very special Award Certificates to those 16 who dared to go where no man had gone before , for the " most gigantic jump performance ever seen in SOL " !!! ;)

ciao ciao

Piero

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!
