should we scrub the deck and recycle the estimates?
We never did in the past. Strongly oppose (although my pick is late, it's my pick)...

Discussion in the party thread (clue as to the seriousness of it all) about the success of landing boosters with and without a bingo game.

Would it be possible to put a clover leaf symbol on the graphics of the Bingo grid... cause, “it’s SpaceXy”?

All in favour of banning bingo as it's statistically more likely a booster will fail on Bingo landings?

Bingo is even more likely to continue now that droneships all seem to be wearing a strong coat of rocket repellent.

Must have more bingo!

Adding the third dimension of "which day" might add a twist.

Might also need a bigger map...   ;D

We need to help SpaceX expand the envelope of flight parameters.

Bingo every time!

we need more differentiation between the water squares. There's so much variation there.

From "lands gracefully in the water - right next to the barge" to "impacts the water at high velocity next to the barge" to "almost lands, then flys away from the barge and hits the water surface in a fireball" to "breaks up in midair and rains down in pieces dozends of miles away from the droneship"

also we need a second layer of squares, for boosters that punch through the deck and land in a water square right under the barge.

Can we get an option for "Barge sunk by impact of Falcon 9 missile booster."?

At what point does this conversation move to the pinned party thread?

Gmph!
I wanted to enter B43079 in the bingo, (300 000 ft off the stern)
but I thought that was a bit of a negative outlook.

And then it turns out it was just about spot-on?

Come on Elon, Just paint the darn clover leaf on the drone ships already...

I think the issue is the lack of individual mission patches with individual clover leaves for each Starlink mission.
