Monday Night Soaring has Started

[Frank]

Hi,

The first Condor Monday Night Soaring tasks were held last night at 7pm
& 10pm EST. There were about 10 pilots in each running. Two pilots
flew both tasks (one well, one very badly ;-)).

I have gotten indivdual feedback from a number of folks, which I will
try to summarize here:

Most enjoyed the flight, and there were at least two first-time Condor
multiplayer pilots, both of whom finished.

There seems to be a consensus that the join time was too long (it was
set for 30 minutes), so I'll shorten this up next time.

Everyone hated Santa, including myself. If anyone on the Condor team
is listening, please hear our cry for Santa-less contests!

This first night was 'club' class. There is interest in running
single-class tasks, a la LLC, maybe rotating among std, 15m, 18m &
open. Also ridge tasks in the future.

Anyone else, please feel free to chime in ;-).

There is a download that gets rid of Santa. It replaces him with a
regular-looking towplane. I forget exactly where the dl is, but do a
search in the Condor forum and you should find it. I believe each must
use this dl, or they will still get Santa. Those with the dl won't.
