Driver's tables have been updated...little more than half of the third leg maps are finished...looks like I'll be sending out the 4th leg tonight or Thursday. Good luck all...several have clicked over to the 2nd map on their route now.

Also congrats to NotNowKato (Rocky Mountains) who has now taken over the overall lead, averaging almost 250 miles on each map so far.

Thanks Flex, having a really good run on Puget, onwards to the Rockies! :D

Did you know that you didn't move Kato's red bar thing to the next map? He isn't even in my group so it doesn't really effect me, just sayin...
Thanks for all of the updates though!!

I finally get out of first gear (finally picked up a win on Puget Sound), but will I be able to recover in time to avoid the wrath of Mr. Gates (DUN DUN DUN!)?

Word has it that Mr. Gates is getting impatient for his autographed album and was considering taking a private jet to get the job done himself...not to mention a chance to meet Barry Gibb in person. Alas, his plans were spoiled when he realized he had packed every album he owned into our trucks. He sent some staffers out on a panicked garage sale run last weekend to no avail.
"Sorry boss, there isn't a BeeGees Greatest Hits to be found anywhere within the Seattle-Tacoma boundary," one reported back.
"Well extend your search to Puget Sound and Snonomish, I'll send you all the way to Spokane if I have to," Gates yelled.
Gates hired private investigators to track his staffers and reports came back that many of those he sent on the hunt instead stayed home on their couches watching March Madness.
At last report, Gates was searching E-Bay for available albums but his computer kept crashing.

Keep driving guys...one of us can get this done :D

Postby flexmaster33 on Mon Mar 29, 2010 12:36 pm

I'll update the map once more of leg 4 is complete (about halfway done now), but the driver charts are updated...

Warnings out to the South route where woolleyy is within 197 miles of Los Angeles and to the Rocky Mountains where NotNowKato is 276 miles out from Salt Lake City...once that first destination is reached the bottom two drivers in each group are eliminated.

If it takes the lead driver 5 legs to reach the destination, eliminations won't be made until all maps for leg 5 are finished.

Driver's tables are updated, and I plan to send out leg #5 and update the route map Friday morning. Still three games active in that last group.

Benga is our new leader out of the Heartland group, nearing the 1,000-mile barrier and closing in on Las Vegas (69 miles out)...so Leg #5 may be an eliminator for that group.

Postby flexmaster33 on Mon Apr 05, 2010 6:33 pm

Driver tables have been updated with 5 maps ongoing in the 5th leg.

We do have our first eliminations, as Benga rolled through Las Vegas, only stopping for a reheated burrito and two quick turns at the slots, before reloading and heading over the pass. Benga is our overall leader with 1,220 miles. Rumor has it he also hit it big on with three bells on the slot machine pouring out $500 in quarters, which he hopes to use at road tolls along the East Coast.

Meanwhile Vintre didn't get out of Washington state before choosing a career change and HighlanderAttack saw his truck breakdown in Western Idaho and will be unable to continue the trek.

Mr. Gates will send a courier to retrieve the albums and other goods you were packing :)

As Vintre never showed up for our game, did I get any "default walkover" miles for it?
