Full options discount available 9 hours after start. First free barrel available after discount is closed, 9h15m after start. This is torture.

The Full Pack discount is a separate time from the race start and they forgot to update it when the start time was moved back.

same for the free barrel time ...

VR can't even properly operate their own game.

good start, Big Bird, 5th place !
I miss 0,3 nmph for not having light sails

Post by zezo | 2017-12-02 | 21:03:47

I started with light sails too. Then paid the entrance fee. Would like to say that I need it to test the new features but the racing fever gets me too sometimes ;-)

Too bad you don't get a refund when purchasing the full pack.

got the ligth sails for VOR3, now hoping to finish either RORC or Clipper4 in time to bring me de credit-for-cards to get the heavy sails as well ;)

What boat upgrades are people using for this clipper leg

Post by Marty6 | 2017-12-06 | 05:31:00

I only bought C0

Post by Ursus Maritimus | 2017-12-06 | 09:18:34

me too

Foils would increase my boatspeed from 15,0 to 15,6 as the top 500 are making. not bad to be just above 600 for days in a row.

Only polish
(Saving for VOR leg 3)

Nothing for me this clipper leg. Also saving for VOR leg 3

Post by Marty6 | 2017-12-10 | 01:19:05

Bought it with the "for this race only credits", so it was basically free. And those credits can't be saved anyway.

Only CO.

Being slowly overtaken by the guys on foils (half knot faster). Closing day 2 at 180, then 250 and now 383, but it's funny! The real frustration is looking for the scenario being drawn for the arrival and put up with the 4 Kt rule!! I guess would be a lot more fun with the real wind. 5+ knots secured for the boats decreases any chance for risky bets (long circling the low wind or even rounding Tasmania). Sailing Mizaza 1.

Good winds to everyone!

I think you are very well positioned in Clipper, Cvetan.
Gonna be a close call at the line.

Stupid though, that you can just VR yourself through the high with 4 kts of wind and 6+ kts of speed over ground

Good luck!

What a massive pile up in the high!

From 125 nm behind the leaders to 25 nm now in two days. To bad the harmonica will extend again in the next couple of hours. 563rd now

Congratulations Cvetan for the good rating!
I really had several sailing lessons with you on this leg.

Thanks also to you, toxcct and GeGaX for the excellent support you have given here.

Fair winds!
