SIAMulations : Message: Exeter 1955

I have played the newest (16 March) version of EX55 now a few times on
Saturday level 5. The "undeserved penalties" on the GW line have not
been completely eliminated, but enough to stop me giving up in
despair. But I still fall way short on the 250 pts target: the best I
have done so far is 193 pts. 250 pts still looks entirely impossible.

My best result on level 5 weekdays is 218 pts (Wednesday) against a
210 target, so that is fine.

Erik.

I agree with Mike Rudkin's comments. I too believe a 100% score for Saturday level 5 is impossible (but we don't play for scores, do we !). I would also like...

... There have been so many changes that could affect the scoring that I think I shall have to recalibrate this one from scratch, particularly for Saturdays. ...

Thanks to Tim for agreeing to look at the scoring again. It would remove the frustration from what is an excellent sim. Having played the 16th March (Saturday...
