Last night's T-byrd Tuesday Event was, "Cross Country Code Chasers!" The object was to race across country to find the four lost code phrases before they fell into enemy hands. Pilots broke up into teams of two, a captain and a navigator. They received their first set of instructions by clicking on the book set out at Starbase Meridian. They followed the directional heading to the next book, which held the first code phrase and directions to the next book and code phrase. After finding four books and phrases, they returned to Starbase Meridian where upon they had to recite the four code phrases in order. Best time won. Congratulations to Steelhead who had the best time! We also had guest code chasers, HoverboatPilot and BABS, who also completed the course with us. Unfortunately, there were the dreaded crashes due to having the compass open... ugh! Hoping There will repair this problem soon. But all in all it was a fun night!
Thanks to all the Fabulous Thunderbyrd's who attended, and special thanks to HoverboatPilot and BABS for joining us.
Here are some screenshots:
