wheels 543 Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I am completely stuff up with times now. How come it started yesterday. I thought we were a day early so it should have been today. I still don't know why they can not put a count down timer on each race posted. It's too darn confusing. Link to post Share on other sites
SloopJohnB 322 Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Ooops wheels The count down timer is confusing as it there may a couple of races starting over the next couple of days. I try and get then posted with several days prior to the start. It must be you slow internet connection playing up. Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Yes exactly, it is confusing. I put the question of a simple count down timer to the SOL team not so long ago, but they consider it a low priority. That's OK for them, but too darn confusing for us in a different time zone and daylight saving arera and an entiure day apart. SJB, it's not your fault, normally you post a time spot on. When SOL gives a date (in this case 23rd) then we are usually 24th. I don't understand why the date on SOL is the same as the start date actualy was. How come that happened.

Guest Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Are the start times/dates posted for local time of the start location? That may explain it. Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 That confuses things even more. The problem I had was that I went online a few hrs after the race had actually started. I saw the timer say something like 14hrs to next race and figured, cool that is tomorrow. But actually it was the next race after this one that the timers was counting for. It's a pain in the neck. Even if they simply said, countdown for race XX, instead of next race, it would be helpful. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I use the weather slider for the race to confirm the start time. Slide it along to the race start time, read off the hours to that time, then do the fingers and toes on it. Worked for me. Link to post Share on other sites
