Personally, im starting to wish i didn't adjust speeds to be realistic at ahead standard. Regardless of what I had intended, everyones going to go around at 2/3rds and exploit the flaw in design. So, what the hell, "all ahead harbor speed at 2/3rds for teh win!"

I enjoy your hard work on TMO. One of the many reasons I use TMO is because of the speed setting and milage. I enjoy traveling the vast ocean at standard, and if needed slowing to 2/3. Just want to thank you again for all your hard work. I really enjoy it. Makes the game a challange and fun to play
