Thanks Mike-
It would have been quite the flash event to watch as everybody slowly
meandered toward the designated spot and then had to sprint 1700ft to get to
the webcam and log.
hmmm... I'm thinking a flash minithon event might be a hoot. Post the coords
somewhere near (insert location here) and go a mile away in an undisclosed
direction and blow a horn. Everyone who get's to the finish line in 15 mins or
less gets a smiley. naah never go for it. Sounds like work. Unless the finish
line location sells beer ... hmmm .... beer is food, right?

I contacted missourimule and they were under the impression that they couldn't
place the coordinates for the event where the webcam is. But the event is in
fact AT the webcam. I am pretty sure that Glenn would be okay with having the
event coordinates within 0.10 mile of the web cam as and would recommend
changing the coordinates for the WWFM to reflect the actual location to avoid
confusion since the event page doesn't even mention the webcam. So everybody
- go to the webcam for the WWFM.

I just had a realization. The Event page never mentioned the webcam.
Perhaps
it is not the intention of the owner to use the webcam at all.
Thanks to (you know who you are) for pointing out my subject/verb
disagreement
in my previous message.

Please double check me on this one, but ....
I believe that the child waypoint for the "Ground Zero" assembly point
for
the
WWFM event at New Town are incorrect. The webcam is by the town hall
and the
wp for GZ is almost 1,700 ft away. If this is the intended GZ and I am
correct
about the placement of the webcam then it's not going to be a very good
picture. I think that the GZWP was taken at the wrong end of the
lagoon.
Anyone care to double check my findings before I send a note to the
event
owner?
Here's the link to the webcam;
