    Sayang Som Yung Gai and Cahockey. I know how you feel. Now Paris is closed due to snow storm !! :mad: :( Not only are some planes grounded, but it's one of my twin hubs. I feed planes between London and Paris so that I have enough P/C to board my Cloudliners and sequoias. The snow storm is severely cramping my style :(

    Aside: "Sayang" is a Malay word. It means love. Yahoo answers put it as
    " What a pity!" " what a shame" or " Too bad!"
    The way we usually use it is more like comforting someone who had bad luck, or say comfort a kid who has fallen down (i.e. don't cry).

    Add me on GC Vic Sark if you're competing for this event ;)

    Big family fight between my wife and her dad at the "déjeuner" today...
    Good thing is, I had a bit more time for the event lol

    the technique to send the plane from NY to Ottawa is good but I have a slightly better way :
    Using NY, Chicago and Ottawa :
    If the plane in Chicago can load bux jobs, I give them priority then fill it up with ottawa jobs.
    and instead of sending it back to Chicago, i send it to Ottawa then NY and unload the bux jobs there.
    If there are no bux jobs, I fill the plane for ottawa jobs and then send it back to chicago.
    The same in NY obviously.
    And this way the sequoias and cyclones droping Ottawa jobs in Ny and Chicago get back filled with bux jobs for around the world :)

    10 parts so far, seems like the blimp body is tougher to find, I've only completed one full blimp

    Sayang Som yung gai. You seem to have one airport closing after another :( Hang in there. PP needs to update its weather reports ... it's too early to have snow storm to the extent that the airport has to be closed.
    Update: Chicago is having a fog. I can't see my plane.

    First time in top 10 so taking a "snapshot". Although I expect to drop out in less than an hour.

    1. 1,102 Teodore2004 (how many planes do u have?? and you babysit non-stop? I have been babysitting 2 mohawks 2 roos and I hardly have a break)
    2. 945
    3. 819 Nokitano (hihi)
    4. 668 Me
    5. 624 Vic Sark (gaining extremely fast)
    6. 596 SupremelyNorth (who woke up and came very fast. I expect to overtake me by the next refresh)
    7. 586 Jonesy0329 (hihi)
    8. 559
    9. 515 JH3210
    10. 456

    A good nite to all. Happy collecting blimps. :)

    Yeah it just wasn't updating or something. Thought it was funny that my screen showed me having more jobs than you, yet were ahead of me in ranking....

    Add me if you guys haven't already! Jonesy0329

    These closures are tough. Sayang is also a word in Tagalog, I believe. Great, DC is closed...

    Cause Monday is Canadian Thanksgiving? I'm a US federal employee, so we get the holiday (columbus day officially, i think).

    FINALLY!!! Mystery Parts! I've a late start on this event but catching up fast. Currently at #36 with 196 jobs delivered, and I can see Coastcat just behind at #39 with 190 jobs. We're not letting you have all the fun at the top, we're on our way! It's great seeing almost every spot of the top 10 filled with a name now instead of numbers too :)

    [EDIT: Refresh has put me another 10 places up at #26 with 252 jobs. Now I can see Cahockey above me at #24 with 264. Beware top 10 club...]

    I dont use my blimps. They are to slow. With 15 seq m`s i earned about 700k in this event and 8 or 9 blimp parts.

    I used Chicago, LA, Mexico City, Rio/Sao and Buenos aires in America with 5 planes. Had one 2 planes running from London (Hub) and Paris. I sent about 3 planes from different places in europe/africa to London, and the rest from Asia to NY and fully loaded back to Asia to earn money.

    Edit

    Who passed me after the event ended? You have 1176 and i had 1102. Please add me on GC. Teodor2004

    I've got lots of engines at the moment if you want to swap a couple for bodies just send them and I'll match each body with an engine or control if you'd want that instead.

    Edit: I've currently got 6 eng 3 controls and 1 body, 3 more boxes on the way to Ottawa as well. Wait make that 6e 3c and 2b now xD
