Second Paper – Logistics

SECOND PAPER CANCELED! 

After our discussion at 9:50 Friday with those of you that made it to class, we decided it would be best if we cancel the second paper.  So you can hereby assume that it will not be required.

The paper you are writing now, which is listed as due Monday November 6, I will accept any time next week.

I hope this gives you the time you need to keep up with your mate’s exam studies and also the simulation game.

And of course I expect your simulation input regularly on Fridays by midnight.

Simulation Rankings – Logistics

Here is a summary of the results so far for the three divisions.

The EAST is a tight race, with all firms clocking positive returns and the picture could change any week.

In the CENTRAL division, two teams are up top, but a third is in the black.  The Lions need to assess what they are doing wrong.

The WEST division is really close among three teams who are battling it out for the top earnings.  The Saints are in the red, but not out of the race yet, at least for higher than last.
