More spray

You can now record the number of attempts a route took when selecting it for your spray list. The number of tries will display next to your name of "Users who have sent this route"

It IS possible to go through and "re-spray" for routes you already have on your list and the number of attempts will be added. No need to first delete it from your list then re-add it.

oh shit.. is the pigsteak corollary going to factor into the grading scheme? eg: a 5.12d that took 7 tries end up being 5.11d? ;)

SCIN, great idea!!!!! I'm still not putting up a tick list though :twisted:

Paul, if that's the case then route grades will turn into a mathematical equation. Sheesh.

They are already numerical. Y not then?

come on paul..you know the corollaries keep you honest. sending 12a first go is way more impressive than one your 37th burn. in fact, you just helped me with a new corollary. let's keep it simple corollary "3g: sending 12a on a 5th or subsequent burn does not make you a 5.12 climber: only a determined one."

thanks paul.

i know.. that's the part that cracks me up about them. as ridiculous as they seem at first, they do hold true every once in a while ;)

paul, you owe me a big thank you. after reading the corollary which states real climbers don't hang any metal object on the outside of their pack, you removed the set of draws and bobby pins from sight. now the ladies are flocking....

just last week, sandy said to me, "you know, there's something different about that paul..." I just smiled.

Piggie....define corollary. I just want to see if you can do it without dictionary.com :twisted:

ok sprag..yer on.

corollary...c-o-r-o-l-l-a-r-y...corollary. how'd I do.

o wait..define it.....

corollary..."whatever pigsteak determines" :wink:

now, from the alegebra days, a corollary was a rule that was an exception to the general rule. or was it a minor rule highlighted by the major rule? or was it a determination that even now, math sucks and is useless for 95% of the population?

(you know I didn't get all that from dictionary.com)

Man, I can't believe you guys hijacked my thread! I keep seeing replies and getting all excited thinking it's going to be stuff like "Sweet! Now I can keep track of my sends even better thanks to your awesome programming efforts Ray!" but instead it's Pigsteak/Paul/Sprag dribble.
