SS2K but it's not showing the full distance

[Brian Thorn]

I'm confused about the certificate for the SS2K. It is showing less miles than than the 50CC but the full ride was done in under 48 hours. What am I not understanding?

 

[Brookester]

Ummm...what am I missing? Your 50cc ended at the beach and your SS2K finished in Tallahassee..all seems good to me

 

[Brian Thorn]

Kwthom pointed out that you can't have two separate rides with the same miles, so therefore even though the SS2K would have included the JAX miles, the person certifying the ride cut it off at Tallahassee.

...and this is where the nesting of rides confuses many.

Though it did take me a minute to ponder the puzzle in my brain (Brian & I had this conversation via PM) before I sorted it out.

It helped that I took a similar ride in 2016 and was able to use that as an example. I certified a Why to Whynot (36 hr) version, and followed up with the remaining time & miles to do my SS2K.

For Mile Eater purposes, the SS2K counts, the W2WN doesn't.

Now that we have that sorted, since the swag didn't come with the certificates, I'm assuming the rest of the stuff comes from the estore? Anyone know how long it should be until that stuff arrives?

When I've ordered it, it all came at the same time in the same envelope.

 

[Brian Thorn]

Yep, but all I got was the certificates.

Is that all you paid for? You can choose cert only, or full swag and cert. If you paid for full swag and cert, you normally get that all together at the same time. It's possible someone simply made an error and if so, you should ping them about it so you get what you paid for.

 

[Brian Thorn]

Yep. Paid for the full boat ride.

You still read the forum?!

Glad you're here and thanks for all the work you do sorting issues.

I saw these certificates on a facebook post, and since I just completed my 50cc in the same month, it got my 'radar' up. So I am now thinking of re-submitting the necessary paperwork for the SS2K, or does it need to be done at the same time that I submitted the 50cc?

There are *some* of us that refuse to have any dealings with The Book of Face or any other entity owned by them.

Thanks to Ira, all was made well. Thanks.
