@BitterOldPunk @frankrogan I had the intent to tune in in the 3rd. I found the game, saw the score and took my hat off sadly for a moment. – 02:04 AM GMT

@DanEngler ah yes. X-Plane iOS has an STS sim & an Apollo sim inbuilt. Lots of ‘don’t touch that’ in there. – 08:00 AM GMT
I should note there are sailing sims out there, but the ones that are realistic focus on contemporary leisure sailing. – 08:03 AM GMT
The ones featuring older vessels don’t often include much in the way of crew management. Which reminds me! – 08:04 AM GMT
Star Trek: Bridge Commander has been abandonware since it was released, and even though the vessel is the 1701-D, it’s what I want for sail. – 08:05 AM GMT
on iOS, that is. Which, yeah, nope. Having ST:BC on iOS would be awesome on its own, for that matter. – 08:06 AM GMT
@praguepainter yeah there’s a bunch in that genre. the ones with tall ships usually focus on other aspects of the vessels than crewing. – 08:57 AM GMT
@praguepainter which totally makes sense, that’s harder to translate to a game than ship movement and stuff – 08:58 AM GMT

this is interesting. for twenty years I have been a scroll-completist in online social environments. now, Facebook won’t let me do that. – 05:03 AM GMT
& Twitter has begun to emulate certain FB user-steering decisions in such a way as to make OCD completism harder. (inline threading, media) – 05:05 AM GMT
which means I can’t settle OCD via online social completism anymore. Instead, it exacerbates it. I think I may have to drop out. – 05:06 AM GMT
