Wow, what did that artillery in Tambov do to desrve that Me?  That’s just mean.

[Me1945]

Just a wrong art in a wrong place.
US TT to sz12 is foolish. It better go sz26 > 10 and mech stays in Wake Island.
I’ll understand, if you disregard.

[dutchmand]

I’m OK granting the courtesy.  There were no dice rolled for that part of the world since you finished the US move.

@DutchmanD:

yeah no problem Me.  Now if we want to be like a certain player who shall not be mentioned, when we later make a major strategic error that could cost us the game, we can point back to this and say you are obligated to grant it to us…  :lol:

:roll:  long story.

[Me1945]

Two responses and I don’t really know which one represents your team.
DD, thanks again. I appreciate it.
Bold, it doesn’t sound like granting the courtesy. So, I believe we better go with the map posted. I’m recalling my last post.

[boldfresh]

no no not at all.  i am fine with granting the courtesy!  i was simply making a sarcastic comment about a recent bad interaction i had in another game where a player granted me a chance to re-do a turn in which i took an illegal action that neither one of us was aware of, then later when he made a huge strategic error, he said to me that since i was not willing to let him redo his entire turn, that i was being a hypocrite.  like i said, it’s a long story.

but let me say, i have NO PROBLEM whatsoever granting your request - on the contrary, i am happy to do so!  :-)

[boldfresh]

to be even more clear, the sarcasm is directed at THAT situation, and not at all to this one.  and our friendly neighborhood pest had to get his smelly self involved in that thread as well in an attempt to stir up the pot when it is obvious he knows the truth of the situation.  moooooooooo.

sorry if my initial response was not clear.  your request is granted.  i have had a super busy day dealing with work and that unfortunate issue i have referenced.  i have NO IDEA how i’m going to handle your power move into the mediterranean - i don’t even know where to begin so i haven’t had time to try.

cheers

[Cow]

You troll me. I troll you.

[boldfresh]

yeah, well you don’t have to mess with poor jeff, that
was just wicked mean.

[dutchmand]

@Boldfresh:

yeah, well you don’t have to mess with poor jeff, that
was just wicked mean.

It can’t help it.  It has to show everyone how special and smart it is. Always.

it was more sinister this time.  it is trying to “mess with my head” - either that or i am giving it too much credit and it is just really really stupid.

[Cow]

Jeff made a blunder, but that is the only way you can win. People have to make super obvious blunders and then you can win your one game. :P

[Cow]

There was combat after USA’s turn in Jeff’s game so I get why you would decline. It is still a sad way to win. You put all that effort and try then he make one mistake he wants to edit immediately after posting before you look…. that is not very rewarding, it is like aww soo easy.

Jeff would have taken longer to do his turns if you had been up front with him, so he feels robbed. That is the basic jist of what I gather.

That is Jeff and your problem.

Most people are lax about editing, because it speeds up turns and quickens the pace for some people. Less checking and more going.

Just like battlemaps do people let people make changes after posting initially?

[Trajan01]

Thanks for the courtesy.
Speaking for the team, you can expect the same in return…although it can occasionally be more tricky when there is a major strategic blunder (e.g. I don’t think we have left you a SL potential here, but if we did, we would have to live with it!)

[boldfresh]

Its too early for my brain to be working what do you mean by SL?

[Trajan01]

SL = Sealion.
Do you mind posting while it’s too early for your brain to be 100%? We could use the help!  :-D

[boldfresh]

@Trajan01:

SL = Sealion.
Do you mind posting while it’s too early for your brain to be 100%? We could use the help!  :-D

I like you trajan you are a pretty laid back dude.

I will see what I can do.  :-P
