martinmac Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 For any budding sailors out there. Finding this a bit addictive. Anyone want to race http://www.volvooceanracegame.org/play.php Quote
tmJak Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Don't have time to play now but will definately have a go later on. What did you call your yacht Mart? Quote
tmJak Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 And mine would be Dream Weaver, same as the cruiser, if some other thieving b****rd hadn't already stolen it! Went with Better Than Superman inspired by Family Guy. Quote
marzman Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 What?? Your boats been nicked?? I thought your £600 mooring was cheap (was that wasnt it?) - where was that, moss side? Quote
tmJak Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 No no my boats not been nicked, the name Dream Weaver on the game has been nicked Quote
Chris`I Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 So are you all Volvo Group or Volvo Cars Employees? I see a tick box saying I am to register Quote
tmJak Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 DONT TICK THAT BOX - if you do you won't be elegible to win a free Volvo Quote
Chris`I Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 DONT TICK THAT BOX - if you do you won't be elegible to win a free Volvo Oh I see Quote

martinmac Posted January 23, 2009 Author Posted January 23, 2009 This is going well. I am up to 53599th 47813rd now Quote
Lexx Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 That sucks. ive been doing this for 24 hrs longer than Stew He signs up, and starts ahead of me!!!! Quote
Stew Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 I don't even know what I'm doing of which way I'm meant to go! Quote
martinmac Posted January 23, 2009 Author Posted January 23, 2009 The orange pecked line is the base track but you need to tack with the wind. If you zoom out you will see where we are going, there is a little red flag. Thats the end of this stage. Quote
Stew Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 I headed for the crowds..... Looks like I was right! Ah well, just need to remember to check it! Quote
martinmac Posted January 23, 2009 Author Posted January 23, 2009 Dont go too far in that direction, check out the wind predictions Stew. Looking good at the moment Quote
DJsickboy Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 I fancy a go at this, dont know if I will be able to keep track over the weekend but... My boat is called Brideys beauty... The race is on Quote
DJsickboy Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 He he looks like most of us are all in exactly the same place except for Martinmac who is miles ahead... hmmmmm.... Quote
