Forgot it was Friday and set off a launch this AM. (senior moment) Luckily I had a QL active, so will be joining you with both games in about 1 hr. 15 minutes.

Whaaaaat/? @must_dash How did you beat me by 4?? I'd been in first all day!????

 

[BelleAIr]

Whaaaaat/? @must_dash How did you beat me by 4?? I'd been in first all day!????

Yeah I was just thinking... They stole that! You were adding points the whole day in first. Wired parrot and I were right behind. That is not cool.....

 

[Wired Parrott]

That does seem odd. I assume you did continue adding points as you could until launch?
With that in mind it would have been impossible for you to be taken over. Did anyone see
exactly what happened? Perhaps you would like to explain @must_dash

 

[Kendra]

Yeah, I was adding all day... Checking in every 30 minutes like clock work. Last small fuel tank I added I was still in 1st. That was about 15 minutes before launch. Not sure how he passed me in the last few minutes.

That is exactly what I saw as well. @Wired Parrott There was absolutely no way they could have gotten to where Kendra was without adding something like a large fuel tank and maybe a liquid fuel. They were not even showing in the top 5 at about 30 minutes before launch. I remember looking and seeing Kendra, Belle2, WP, gameradar3, Harco, H585, Mike47, and I think must,_dash was after that. I began the launch at like 3 minutes after open, right after Kendra.
Before we had launched, I went to add a small liquid fuel when the timer popped, I clicked it, but we launched, so my total stopped at 186. This emphasizes Kendra's 192 (the difference of the 1 additional liquid fuel she got in because she started before me, and paid better attention to her timers ) is the max one could have entered in this launch if following the launch rules and adding at each timer from the start. Sad to see you got kicked from the top 3 because of it. Really hope to hear an explanation!

Good Morning Flyers (06.30am GMT London)

@Harcourt - @must_dash - @david smith - @BelleAIr - @Wired Parrott - @crescent moon - @Mike47 and @Kendra

I just wanted to write and express my thanks to all of you who joined the small resources flight on Friday 27th January, flight number 48 in the series. I have read through the launch thread post's and I'm very sorry there was a problem towards the end. I hope it is resolved to all flyers satisfaction?
