FG: Nascar IX: Pit Stop

[Tuberski]

Rah, are you sure I'm going NE?



ACK!

[gjramsey]

I am pretty sure I am heading NE at this point.

orders sent based on that assumption.

[rah]

Yes, it's monday morning and after the Illini pulled it out saturday, I've been celebrating. (more likely since the wife is out of town.) SO I'm not all that clear this morning.

Corrections made.

[vovan]

rah, just a clarification... Shouldn't sparrow's current speed be 10? What with his top speed being below current speed and all?

Either way, orders sent.

[rah]

While technically correct, that was his speed at the end of the last turn. I don't look at the max speed until the beginning of the next turn. He will not be allowed to stay constant in terms of speed. He will need a B at the beginning of his orders.

[rah]

I volunteer VOVAN to GM the next game to see if he can do it without making any mistakes.

I actually do appreciate being notified of all my shortcomings so I can correct them in a timely matter.
This is harder than it obviuosly looks.

[Spaced Cowboy]

speaking of speed, since I accel'd last turn to 12, shouldn't I be at 12? (and have to brake on the next turn as well)?

[Kassiopeia]

Kassi is the only one that hasn't had a crash.

That is not manifesting itself in my position, though...

[Tuberski]

Orders sent twice again, damn oil spills.

ACK!

[rah]

I SAID I WAS HAVING A TOUGH MORNING, CUT ME SOME SLACK.

[Tuberski]

Wasn't your fault I can't read. But, could you maybe bold the car that has oil underneath?

ACK!

[rah]

Then I would have to add the bold tags. What, you want color too. A cold day in hell first.

[Tuberski]

I'd be happy with bold.



ACK!

Sent, now where are those freaking sand goggles I bought from that nice sparrowhoha fellow.

While it doesn't matter this turn, this could cause some problems later as if I had needed a brake at the end of the upcoming turn, to both avoid the oil spill ahead of me and to brake would require the use of two wild cards (one to avoid the oil spill and one to slow down). It seems extreme to have to use two wildcards as a result of a crash.

I knew I didn't need them as some Cowboy cut me off and reduced my speed enough that I won't be seeing any sand for at least a turn

(and Ramsey is somewhere behind me, I won't be watching for sand ahead as I need to worry about him hitting me (again ) more then I do the sand).
