A GUIDE TO HELP OTHER THAT MAY HAVE QUESTION'S PLUS A DATA SPREADSHEET
Nov 13 2008, 6:16 AM EST | Post edited: Nov 13 2008, 6:16 AM EST
I bought this game Aug 1st and i am totally disabled and so i play this game 12,14 sometimes 16 hrs a day i can't sllep much due to my back.So by playing this game so many hrs kind of makes me a game expert and this guide is to help those who have question's and need help.Also i have a data spreadsheet that lets one get rid of all the jotted notes of crab counts and trying get a avg.The data sheet puts all your pots into order by numers such as string 1 pot 1 and so on you input the hrs into season and the total fleet crab counts into there spots and whammy the total seasons hrs like 136 hrs for a King season.It will avg how many lbs are in 5 pots .If you put your soak times in when you put in your total crab count from your plotter and your crab count the difference in lbs will show and you put that in the spot next to your crab count. Guys or gals this data sheet will even tell you how many individual crabs are in the tank.The data sheet even has step by step destructions on how to use the data sheet i will not leave port with out it.I just finished a king season and with 200 pots i hammered almost 360,000 lbs in a 132 hr season.The guide also will cover what is the best way to set your pots what is the best way to choose your crew without going broke. In another forum i have helped alot of other game Capt's So if anybody needs help do not be afraid to ask that is what i did Even the boat you choose the crew those two things are a big factor if you don't have a balanced crew one person or two will be doing everything and you will see that in there health meter it will go down more that others.

Are you a NERD or "something" ? What the heck are you talking about ? Do you need data to catch the crabs ? That is something called "the real sea with real crabs and lobsters". LOL.
I`m old and probably not understand the language, so help me out here my friends :)

I believe he's refering to the DC game, esolb. He spends a lot of time playing the game and has learned his way around it, and is graciousely offering hints on how to make the most of the game. (<:

Thank You very much NewbieGirl You are so very right I play this game almost non stop i am a die hard fan and a gamer i have two autographed game from Capt Sig & Edgar.I got them because of all the help that i have given to different game Capt's.This is why i want to do this why i am thinking of doing this web page to do the guide to help and answer questions and try to help others that struggle with game play.I sure don't help out others and answer questions because i have to it is just that i want to help others have as much fun as i do.LOLOL Thru all the hrs of playing i still find new ways to set more pots in turn get more crab.I don't use any less than 200 pots in a king season.The Data sheet i am trying to explain to es is it is not a data sheet that one might think this is a data sheet that the Game Capt puts everything that has to do with the game play String's the number of pots the hrs into season your crab counts the fleets total say a king season would be 115,000 that is put into one space as you go thru your season.All the info and numbers that are put into the datasheet is to make your game easier not harder.Gone are the 100 pieces of paper jotted with crab counts trying to figure the avg this data sheet takes away all the hard work away so the Capt can enjoy the game.Like i tried to say before i do not fish with out it after the season is over you can reset it for the next season it even comes with instruction's on how to use it and put everything into order. I sure hope this will clear up any confusion.

You sound like you would make a great engineer. I work for an electronics firm as a receiving clerk and I wish some of the ME's we have were as organized as you. They can't even seem to keep their documentation updated. (<:
