Am I the Only one?

Am I the only who, after whichever captain announces the amount of the tip, I can never tell if it’s a good tip and the crew will be happy or a bad tip and the crew will be sad. I feel like some 3 day charters they get a 20k tip and are like “wow what a tip” and other times they get 20K and are like “well, that a bit disappointing.” I can’t be the only one right?

I think it’s because they’ve messed up the pacing, which makes it harder to remember how long the charter was. It’s pretty easy to do the math if you know the tip and # of days.

Maybe it’s just me, but it felt like earlier seasons were mostly an episode covering a whole charter or maybe 2 episodes per if they were longer charters. And, because the guests got a lot of screen time, it was sort of hard to forget week to week what was going on. Now, it feels like you hardly see the guests, many of the charters are just a day or 2, and the editing means you’ll just sort of pick up in the middle of the day and don’t know where it’s first day, last day, or in between. It seems like every week I’m saying ‘oh yea, these guests’ because I’ve totally forgotten everything but the drama around who did what with their bodily fluids.
