Turn 6: "We have a new record!"

Five sand bags hit in one turn: three by Kassi, one by Ramsey, and one by Jonny. Both Kassi and Ramsey are sitting on top of sandbags.

OMG would this evil GM put 4 or more sanbags in a row...meh?

Unless I hit oil, I don't think I should be headed East.......should be south if I didn't hit oil??

Edit: Orders sent on the assumption that I am headed South.......if I am indeed headed East I will need to revise (or I would be happy if you let me hit the wall, reduce my speed accordingly and put me in a more manageable direction ). Either way...it's all good.

The oil slick heading east is a bit harsh since he can't turn around at that speed. It should really be limited to 90 degrees of the direction that the track is heading. If a roll comes up that has you facing more than that, it should be corrected to that. Being pointed into the wall when you're next to it would also be a bit harsh.

Just my opinion, I will abide by the the GM's rule.

and what designates an oil slick for future reference, so far grass and sand look like 'o's.

Sparrow, my bad on the update, got interupted by a tech during the typing. You are headed south.

If and when ya'll hit the oil slicks, I'll let ya know.

An oil slick will be displayed as a small s. Grass and sand have the same effect so I made them the same display, that is, I did not see a reason to differentiate.

Need orders from Rah and Jonny.

Put an end to popups!

Turn 7: "Will there be a turn where Kassi does not hit a sand bag?"

Not this one, as Kassi is still holding onto the lead and sitting on top of a sand bag. The racers are now more tightly packed but still in the same orders as we approach the first 180 turn.

OMG you guys are sooooo close to the oil slick that it is starting to scare me. I probably will not be able to sleep tonight.

I have provisional orders for Sparrow since he'll be gone. I might have to try to help him a bit since he is out.

He gave me enough direction to do the turn, busy this morning (not at work) running errands and such. Now if I can just post the turn before I start RTW, just kidding. I'll post both NASCAR and NUKE WAR before I start playing (that is saying a lot since I've gotten both KOTOR2 and HL2 for xmas as well).

Turn 8:"Unit 14, we have a multicar pile-up on turn 4."

Wow, this was a biggie. Ramsey is sitting on top of a sand bag. Both he and Kassi collided this turn. Ramsey won the toss.

Rah found the first oil slick. The toss gave him a left and he went into the wall. The angle was good so he only got a -2 penalty, and some good driving sent him to the spot where kassi is now. However, that is where Jonny ended up as well. Rah won the flip this time.

Sorry but that is the only way I could figure to do it. I had a thought about crashes that we should use a special symbol like %$#& etc to represent two or more cars on the same spot instead of randomly penalizing someone. The 50% reduction in speed would still happen, but you would not randomly lose a space.

In a related story, Sparrow hits a sandbag that was already uncovered by Kassi last turn, and Kassi countinues his streak of finding a sandbag on every turn.
