Tugby Results Updated for November 16th, 2014

A good group of Tuggers and a good set of games.  The "tilt" mentioned in my last dispatch seems to have resolved itself with the Red Team winning 3 of the 5 games and the Green Team winning 2 of the 5.  

The Fall Season ends on November 30th and right now Lynn and Forrest are neck and neck.  There are three components (in my humble opinion) to having the most wins.  First is a luck component (since teams are randomly drawn - some teams are better than others).  The second component is skill - other things being equal, your skill will help.  The third is simply coming to play!  So come on out and play with us.

Last Sunday's results:

1 / 3 ALLIE
1 / 2 BURT
3 / 5 CARLA
2 / 5 DAGGER
3 / 5 FORREST
5 / 5 LYNN
0 / 5 YAS

Cumulative results:

Tugby Results for November 9th, 2014

The Linden Gods smiled on us last Sunday.  There was "no" lag anywhere to be found on Santa Cruz.  There DID seem to be some concern that the Tugby Pitch was tilted with the Red end down.  That would help to explain the domination by Green teams.  



Those of you that played last Sunday are now famous.  Erin68 Frog was filming the action and has posted it to YouTube.  Take a look.  I have told her that she had the time of play wrong.

On the Sunday after Halloween, we had a great group of Tuggers and very good games.  Forrest had a GREAT day being on the winning team four out of four games.  The individual scores are below, and the cumulative scores for the season.  Below THAT is a picture of yours truly who found a GREAT Halloween avatar!  Many thanks to Allie Tomsen for both taking the picture and for the comments.

You Have More Control Than You Think

There has been a lot of recent talk about lag conditions in sailing. Much of the discussion centered around Linden Lab's mistake in placing all of the Blake Sea regions on a new type server (SNACK) and ensuing problems that created. We are back on regular SL Severs for the moment and will likely be returned to the SNACK servers once they get things straightened out. SNACK promise to greatly improve preformance by offloading the task of texture loading from current Apache servers that run other aspects of the regions.

Now that things are settling down a bit I felt it was time to take out the old "personal lag" discussion and share it with everyone (especially those who are newer in SL (in my case that would be anyone under 10 years SL age)). HAHAAHA. Just a joke folks.

So, don't miss the new post on the MarkTwain White Journal that can really help you reduce your lag experience on the water.  Click HERE.

We had a lot of people come to play last week.  We've been limiting teams to 3 persons a side, so we did need to take turns playing.  The results for last Sunday are below and cumulative results for the season are below that.  See you on Sunday!!

Tugby Results Updated for October 5th, 2014

Sorry that I didn't get last weeks results updated and posted.  Life just got awfully busy for awhile there.  It seems to have slowed down a little and my new computer is working marvelously.  LOVE having a solid state drive to boot from.  


Anyway, we had good sessions the past two weeks although last Sunday did seem to have more lag patches.  Everyone bore with it and we had some folks come back and play that we haven't seen for awhile.  Jamal and Kiki Nerido joined us!  Welcome back.  Results are below.
