Went to sleep before I got the turn, sent it in now.


Thanks bud. Also, as a friendly suggestion, you may wish to check your email more than once a day. :AH

Since I tend to ask questions and submit updates throughout the day.



Cheers, Thor

my email is being quirky. Did you get my Oct turn? I sent it yesterday at noon.

Believe it or not, I just got it a few minutes ago. I did not recieve anything yesterday.

And if you sent it yesterday, that is weird it taking this long to get to me. :ad

Is your ISP holding up your email for some reason?

I was able to process Gav's and MrAnderson's turn, but Mav and Axner sent me the wrong sheet. So I am waiting on them to respond and send me the correct sheets. :AH

Looks like we're going to have to write up our year-end reports soon. I have to say, i'm starting to like this game more than the last one, though the lack of launches from everyone else makes me feel sad.

Ok guys, there seems to still be too much confusion as to how to write a launch order. So I will give another example below. :AH

Launch Date / Mission Type / Lifting Body / Hardware Included / Pad Used
12 October 57 / Orbital Satellite / LEO Rocket / Orb Sat - Comm Pack / Pad B

If you follow this formula there will be no question in the GM's mind as to what your mission is. I will wait til next week, and then after that any launch orders not using that format will be aborted. I am spending way too much time trying to decipher what type of mission the launches are. :AH

I need every player to post and acknowledge having read this post. :AH



Cheers, Thor

Well, I can guarantee next year will be a bit busier. :bs I see Japan entering the race, and beginning in Jan, as a not racer, but a participant, the US - me - will be entering the arena. :ac

Thor,

You might want to include lifting body in the orders since we have a nice variety of rockets to use ... LEO/MEO etc ...

I've been using that except for the pad, and I just schedule the next launch 10 days after in the same month. Though I can see it becoming confusing if I get another one or two pads, so I suppose i'll do that from now on.

@ MrAnderson it may seem nitpicky, but using a standardized format makes processing orders much easier. And if you use a standard then it must be used by all participants to be effective. :AH

@Gav, you are absolutely correct bud. I forgot to put on the lifting body. Will correct the example ASAP! Thanks bud! :r

Launch Order format has been updated.



Cheers, Thor

Looks like the Ruskies got some launches off, and it's about time to alert the world to my imminent nucle- err... colonization of space. Making a flavour post.
