Can't float but can catch fish ...

From the Feb 2006 Concept2 newsletter (UK):

The latest version of the PM3 Monitor software contains a "brill"iant
new game, designed to make your training sessions swim by. If you download
and install the "cod"e, and ex"salmon" the 'More Options' menu on the
monitor, you can now try and become a "dab" hand at the Fish Game and
mackerel fist of becoming the best there is.

Well that's annoying. Let's start again. Download the latest version
of the PM3 firmware and you can play the whizzy new Fish Game. On the PM3
screen, you're a fish facing the onslaught of good and not-so-good fish. You
can move your fish up and down the left side of the screen by altering the
intensity of your row. The aim of the game is to score points by gobbling up
all the good fish headed your way (small fish are worth 30 points; striped
fish are worth 60 points) while also avoiding the large toothy, be-finned
predators, who take 45 points off your points value if they catch you.

Each game runs for four minutes, with a play again option at the end.
Your fish game workout information (time, distance, pace per 500 metres, and
so on) will be logged to your LogCard (or PM3 Memory if rowing without a
LogCard) just like a regular workout would be.

Since the Fish Game runs on the PM3, getting the Fish Game on your PM3
requires you to update your PM3 Firmware. Mac users: You will need to use a
PC to run this download.

The Fish Game can be downloaded from

I put it on all of ergs. I have all the guys start together to see who
gets the highest score for each repetition. It's a great way to
break-up winter training blues!!!
