Yes, I think it is a VIP feature.

Ok, I'll grant you that Rule 16 doesn't apply to speed changes, probably because the rule writers didn't anticipate the ability to slam on the brakes instantly by hitting the space bar. The fact remains that Rules 15 and 16 are enforced way too narrowly (though I did actually see 16 called in a race today).
My main gripe is the downwind Rule 18 port/starboard bug. That's such a basic, fundamental discrepancy that significantly alters strategy in the game. Also, the game doesn't apply Rule 18 to finish marks.
Agree about the rule 18 bugs. Very annoying.

If VR would make even a small part of their API available I would be happy to develop a scoring option for them.

Thank you. That has answered a lot of my questions about setting up our own race series.

I guess it would not even be that hard if the Polar speed plot of a new boat is put into the game. The sailing would then already look a lot more like your favorite boat.
Perhaps the designers could allow us to put in our own Polar Plots for custom races?
Or use ORC polars for even more options!

today, playing against konadog, another canadian, i found myself directly behind him.
he luffed his sails and i hit him, getting penalized.
in the real world, that would have been a penalty as even though he would be the stand on boat and i would be the keep clear boat, i had 0 time to react. 0 time to keep clear.
room to keep clear is part of sailing and this game ought to incorporate that too.
Room to keep clear only comes with a change of course, not speed.

The country I live in is not on the list of countries available when one signs up. Sint Maarten is very active in sailing, needless to say, but is missing from the list of countries. Anguilla, our neighbouring island is also missing. How would we get our countries listed?

Perhaps there is a better way to ‘confirm’ a member? Like the email verification?
VIP priority customer service?

An advantage of VIP membership from the site:
”Receive priority customer service”
Having asked for a bug to be fixed seven times after becoming VIP, I have had nothing except automated replies telling me to look at the forum.
This implies that non-VIPs don’t even get that.
Has anyone ever received a reply to a customer service request?
