Eleven lines - one record
http://www.tubechallenge.com/forum/
To answer this, I don't have the time to try to better it - taking a 3 week holiday eats into most of my leave allocation, and I'm not really into wasting the few days leave that I have left to go trying to better it. Of course, should the record get broken then I may reconsiderscrxisi wrote:Are you two actively attempting to better your time, or just sitting back and seeing what happens?

Geoff. Knowing you I know it's not intentional, but you're misquoting me! The entire quote is:***** wrote:are you just trying to incite me now on purpose? ha ha haa! Snudge, you've obviously never completed a full network, dare say attempted one? A network failure can obviously make or break a record time. Duh.snudge27 wrote:people shouldn't blame the network for their failure to beat the record. Surely, you were successful because you either had a route that had enough leeway in it that the delay didn't put you behind record pace, or you had enough luck later in the day to counteract the effect of the delay?
Andi, I like the fact that your big post at least had paragraphs in it ... made it much easier to read!
In context, you can see that I am saying that the reliability of the network can make or break a record attempt. As for the alleged lack of attempts, you even joined me between White City and Walthamstow on an attempt (albeit under a different username!)snudge27 wrote:Andi, I think it's a little facile to say that because you achieved a world record despite delays, people shouldn't blame the network for their failure to beat the record.

The Forum Committee on Section Naming (i.e. me) is meeting this afternoon to consider this request ( as it's more or less tantamount to that).***** wrote:(which reminds me. didn't Andi get his own section after 21 attempts? does this mean i can have my own section on the forum now?)
or just rename the section to geoffs continual attempts as i havent done one for ages!scrxisi wrote:I say 21 should qualify a challenger to he included in a combined separate section, the name of which evolves accordingly over time. Therefore Andi's bit should become Andi & Geoff's bit
Sorted

The "What is this section for?" thread explains it, so I doubt there'll be anyone thinking they can't go in there if they aren't "of full age".hopeful traveller wrote:I'd rename the sub-forum to "Over 21 Attempts Only", otherwise it sounds like something is on here that shouldn't be.
