I "was" in the race but I think they've taken exception to Kiwi entries as well as The Brits...I also reckon they've taken us down to reposition theirr fishing trawler fleet just about on our bows..... Dead

Yep you're right. It will kill the game if the server cannot stay up reliably. Let's hope they solve this.

To be fair it was his thread so we can't really grumble Wink
 
I got about 10k in the same 10 mins. Think I may be missing something in that I can't get the weather forecasts on the site to work or see any grids?
