BOSTON TEA PARTY 2015 - PILOT FLIGHT INFORMATIONDue to the new Tea Party website this year (teaparty.bostonartcc.net), all poker qualifying flights will be tracked automatically, thus there will not be a BOS_PK_CTR position this year.
In order to ensure your flight both qualifies for poker and is fully tracked, please refer to the following checklist:
1) Book a flight, either pre-made or a custom booking --- you can do this at teaparty.bostonartcc.net. This is required for you to qualify, along with all the other poker rules listed there.
2) Sign into VATSIM via your flight simulator. If possible, use the callsign on your booking.
3) Include your Tea Party ID (the code that looks like TP-??) in your flight plan remarks --- we'll be sending you a pre-file link two hours before your departure time that will include this already. Including this in your flight plan remarks will ensure that if something goes wrong, your flight will still be tracked. If your callsign is already taken, this is the only way we can track your flight automatically.
4) Check your hand to make sure all is well before you disconnect --- you'll be sent a link with each flight to both manage your hand, and also a link that will show the status of your flight. Once your flight says "landed", a card will be queued to be sent to you. If there are 5 cards in your hand, the card will wait in the queue before you discard a card.
5) If something goes wrong, email the Events Coordinator at
[email protected] or message him on the network at CAPE_APP .
