We're a great community - replies coming in this quick quite late on a Sunday evening, even if not able to help - its nice to know...
Cheers all...

Edit - I appreciate some of you will be probably asleep - you just never know though, and I'm not all that good on the different time zones for everyone !

 

[greensmith]

no worries - just wanted to try and support JayJ, I've added quite a bit, but just wondered if some of my neighbours would add some low level fuel items to help us get away...

@Az1
I didn't know you were supporting @Jay J. Thought it was one of those double QL launch with lots of participants. If you need help to launch I'll be glad to join.
Cheers,
Tom

Hi Tom, we need about another 500 for lift off - @Jay J has 736 in and I've got 746 in - anything you can add appreciated...we'll launch this side of midnight though, so you'll know when your lander will be back if waiting for something...
Cheers,
Az

I am on the blue pad with u @Jay J here we go

 

[Az1]

Welcome @Diabloscort , thanks for joining us - update then, we're just in need of 302 fuel to launch...
@Jay J - add a few more and take 1st place - it was your launch, and I'd rather you have first place...I didn't mean to overtake earlier...
@greensmith - update just fyi...
Cheers,
Az

@Az1 @greensmith
It reminds of O'Henry's...
I was bored in the blue waiting room waiting for some fast action.
@Diabloscort offered some action, then @Az1 sounded wanting some action...
I opened the launch wanting to give the first place to Az1 for keeping me company...
(I have enough fuel in stock.)
He joined me to help me...and calling everybody.
What a great bunch of guys. I love you all. hehe

@Az1
@Jay J
Just went to join your blue launch but you're not there any more. I guess I have to start my own and let it die.
Cheers,
Tom

 

[Az1]

@Jay J , @Diabloscort
And we're away - what a fast finish - I really wanted you, JayJ to have first place as it was your launch - thanks for your comments in your post above!
Cheers Tom @greensmith for being willing to support us, didn't expect it to finish so quickly!!

[Diabloscort]

Yes - we are always willing to help and support each other - such a great discipline of this forum, which is why I always try and help when I can....

@Az1
@Jay J
No problem. Will just wait out the 24 hours and let it die.
Cheers,
Tom

 

[Diabloscort]

@Diabloscort
No apology necessary. I'm fine with it.
Cheers,
Tom

 

[Jay J]

@greensmith, @Diabloscort , @Az1
I feel responsible for Tom. After all, I am the one who opened the launch.
Let me make it up to you somehow next time.

 

[greensmith]

@Az1
@Jay J
@Diabloscort
Seriously, I'm fine with everything. I'm Polish and one of the first Polish jokes I heard was this:

My Uncle Don: Hey, Tom, ask me what the secret of Polish humor is!
Me: Okay. What's the secret of ...
My Uncle Don: Timing!​

Timing is everything and sometimes it just doesn't work out. Everything's good!
Cheers,
Tom

 

[Diabloscort]

Thats a good one @greensmith lol

 

[Az1]

and the beauty of having great friends like yourselves, is that we all have understanding about this game and how things some how turn out or not as the case maybe...! ...but we're always prepared to help out each other - this time last week, I was rescued on a green launch only for a bug to hit us all - and I felt awful - but everyone was so 'cool' about it - that they accepted it was just one of those things...
