VSK 3 is up and ready to roll (thanks Wis - who used broadband to get my legal purchase). OK, I have had at least 30 mins practise and I even looked at a page in the manual. So who can I fight to the death on line? Or is there some things about going on line I should know?

Hey Nick, I will try and hook up with you, we will have to plan ahead on our scheduled time somewhat… looks like lunch time for you would be evening for me… if you want to take a lunch break let me know and we will try to hook it up.[:D]
Ian, did you get yours working? Might as well hook all 3 of us up right? I have gone on line and appears to be working, but have not made it into a game yet. Keep us informed on progress.

I’m game. Say Noon Brisbane = 2pm NZ = 8pm Texas (the previous day). I;m game . Now we know when all we need to know is when when.

[:-fight] OK lookout you lot, I am up and running,… well staggering really.[:-dunce]
The program now works. The visuals suck but I think that may be my wotsit card.
The first race against myself was a bloody disaster. You would think I had never sailed a yacht in my life. [:-ghost]
I need to put in some serious practice if I am going to whip your butts.[:-king]
See you on the water.[:-timebm]
Do it NOW before it`s too late.
ps my playing name is CaptainBit.[:-captain]

[:-pirate] Yes Wis I have DirectX 9d and I downloaded the latest drivers for my Nvidia card.
I think that I may need to upgrade my video card from the current model which is now around five years old.[:-propeller]
Do it NOW before it`s too late.

You guys let me know when you normally get on and I will try and match you. AUS and NZ late Friday night is early Friday morning here, so I can do that… it would probably be the most reasonable. [:D] 10:30 local time for AUS/NZ is probably 9:30 local time for WIS and would be about 7:30 AM for me… just have to give me some warning…hehehe… I am not normally on the comp that early. [:-boggled]
OK. Now NZ is Bris * 2 hrs (in winter, 3 in summer - no daylight in qld). So, phew, wis is about the same as bris maybe - 1 hr. hmmm. and they are usually the same day. so texas is about GMT - 6. Oh God. I like your idea Larry. Lets us meet at Wis rcsailing.net fun", VSK3 at 1100GMT on next Friday (too late for you, Ian?, too early for you Larry?). Tentitively anyway. Between now and next Friday we may work it out.
