11L '41 DM(+12) v Gamerman01(x) no tech - Game #2

[gamerman01]

@DarthMaximus:

This is absolutely crazy!  I think the dice gods are basically saying this game will end before the end of the season.
Craziness!

Thinking hard about giving up, especially because it’s in my best interests (I guess) to give up before end of season.  However, for me it’s not all about winning, it’s about having fun.  And I think this game has some fun left in it.  I’m sorry if you’re hoping I give up, but I would think (if you even care) you would prefer a win in 2012 over 2011 anyway…

Now if the Red October would have succeeded and if you sunk my fleet with minimal losses, then probably…  But heck, I still have 5 Jap bombers to wreak havoc with!  Maybe after you shoot down 3 of them to AA…  :-P

Hope you don’t think me a poor sport…  I don’t think I can win, but will continue because I’m having a good time.  If you call for a resignation, I’ll give it to you.  But I’m working on J6 now…

Didn’t get 'er done even with an extra hour.  I’m too tired to make a move now - shooting for Sunday.  Just wanted to let you know I haven’t forgotten and am not trying to stall….  But I have the tournament and the league playoff games that are priority, as you know…
