Wednesday Night Racing / Re: Series 4 Race 3 Results

I would vote to score normally.
I doubt anybody noticed that the mark "died" after they took the the time-to-sequence-start prior to the first sequence.  You can't hear the noises it makes anyway.
If you amended the SIs to start using GPS time as TieDyed suggests, you could replace "markus" with a pole with a flag on it, and enjoy the start from the comfort of the barge.  ;D

In rum race #4, Banjo Girl and Shaken Not Stirred are scored DNF.  How does that happen?

Typically, because the finish time reported is after the race cut-off of 2100hrs.  Sometimes it's because the finish time gets reported in error or not at all - therefore blank and the program doesn't know what to do with blank.  Post your time here for the admin to correct.

In the TGIF sailing instructions, section V. Course Description reference a mark 'T'.  Is that the same as mark 'F' described in section III. Marks of the Course?

A couple of questions regarding the TGIF SIs:

  • Shouldn't the formula for calculating start time be
      S= 11.25 x (285-R)
      Starting Time = base time+ S
    instead of
      S= 12.81x (285-R)
      Starting Time = base time+ S
    ?
  • Is the contact email really  FleetCaptian@Gmail.com?

Galveston Bay Area Racing / CLRA notices
June 21, 2018, 08:55:22 AM
I heard that the Wednesday Night races last night were cancelled via a post on facebook. Good call on canceling. But the SIs state:
"4.1 Notices to competitors shall be posted on the web site at http://www.clearlakeracing.org. In the event of cancellation, the CLRA
Hotline at 281-636-3508 should have a message with details/more information. Information in the front page of the web site and
revisions to the SI posted on the website are considered a notice to competitors whether specifically flagged under the menu called
Notices to competitors or not. "

The "hotline" still says something about Tropical Storm Cindy.  I don't think the website was updated until way later.
Do you think 4.1 should be altered to say that notices to competitors shall be posted on facebook?
In the event of cancellation, maybe an email or text to all registered competitors?
