La Solitaire Du Figaro

Not sure what this means - but as I understand things, the wind forecasts are due to be normalised within 2 days ? - are you going to support us please?

I have only the black dots and the wind arrows, with no course and no polar arcs. Is this what I should be seeing?

I do not have the proper Solitaire polars as I am showing a speed of 9 knots in a 4 knot wind at a wind angle of 45 degrees, which is ridiculous. The heading on my chart does NOT include the Solitaire du Figaro race. Is this race not going to be supported?

IS THE FIGARO GOING TO BE SUPPORTED BY ZEZO"S SS?

Probably no.

BTW I don't see any winds in the game today. Is it only me?

It has been a problem for some time this morning, but it now seems to have been resolved.
Nevertheless, Zezo, your help with right polars and race waypoints would be greatly appreciated.
Is your Big Bird or another one in the race ?
By the way, the winds on the Channel indicated by your SS and VR are not the same.
Hope to get some info ;-)

There is general recall of the race now. They are giving me time to fix it? ;-)

I am fed up. The crash of MP-VR caused me a shipwreck and 13,500 boats. They never communicate to skippers directly. I'm through! Freaking through. Switching to SailOnLine.org

That's one of the reasons I don't support (and don't participate in) the recent races. It's getting worse all the time and the serious players will get fed up sooner or later.

If you don't participate, who's then skipping your Big Bird ?
It's true it's getting worse but this is not a good reason to drop a lot of friends down the tube ;-(
Tell me you found a new job or you are on vacation, I'll accept that reason !!!

Someone else is obviously at the helm of Big Bird!

I rescind my last comment. The master is definitely at the helm.

Yes, I am, doing my best without missing night sleep and social life.

And, in due course, you have passed me! Again! When I thought it was safe to go back in the water again!

Hello, I hope nevertheless that Zezo will be available for the running(race). It is the tremendous tool that I discovered on ag2r.

Mr.Zezo:- I am not a programmer, at all, (my last was a preliminary course in Fortran, and we addressed the computer with punch cards) but your program must have a command that you use to insert the polars information for any race that you do support. Would it therefore be possible for you to make this command available to your clients (such as me) so that we can add the polars for any race that we are participating in. I am not suggesting in any way that you release the basic original programming, but a small downloaded sub-program which was on the users computer, could then be the means by which YOUR program was accessed. It would relieve you of the nescessity of continuously modifying your own program for each race and each new set of polars. I am aware that you would need to charge a fee for such a sub-program.

Not a bad idea, but will need some additional work. Right now the process is not 100% automated and needs some manual tweaking of the polars.
