Frank, There may be an omission from the new website. It says that my tank,
T080 has not been to any battles and doesn't have any points. I can clearly
see in my mind the several battles I've been to, and I remember racking up
record setting point totals, almost matching your numbers in half the time. I
recall "Ring of Death" battles where my pine and pressboard drill powered tank
tore the crap out of all who dared enter leaving mangled piles of aluminum,
steel and Cheap Control Systems parts. I gotta go now. The orderlies are
coming with my next dose of medicine. Bill

Subject: [TANKS] Calling All Nit-Pickers
If you're one of those people who are easily irritated by small
inconsistencies or who just love to find mistakes with other people's
work, I've got the perfect job for you.
After only 15 years of continuous duty, the server that hosts the R/C
Tank Combat website is being retired shortly. But fear not, all of the
glorious information on the web site has been ported to a new server "in
the cloud" that will hopefully provide reliable service for another 15
years.
Most of the textual pages were simply copied to the new site and should
be relatively error free. However, all of the database-related pages,
including asset albums, asset history, operator history, battle scores
and totally worthless statistics had to be re-implemented, which always
leaves opportunities for mistakes.
So, if you'd like to help ferret out the mistakes, please visit:
http://test.rctankcombat.com/
give it a good going over, and compare it to the original website at:
http://www.rctankcombat.com/
If you find anything that looks wrong, please post a reply and I'll take
a look at it.
Here are the known issues that don't need to be reported:
a) The World-Wide map still needs to be registered with Google for the
new server, so it is currently not visible.
b) For some unknown reason, the scores for some Maryland battlers were
somehow increased by 363% during the porting process, but I'm sure I'll
figure out the problem someday :-)
Let the nit-picking begin.
