@Stalingradski:

Will I be able to position for a retake of your retake of my retake??   :wink:

probably not.  :-o  here’s hoping.

[boldfresh]

i’d much rather own calcutta than sydney, so could it end up being a blessing in disguise that i lost sydney if that foray to z62 was what encouraged the UK pac infantry stack to venture to yunnan?  crazy game, and i love it.

[boldfresh]

turning australia into 6 territories was brilliant!

[boldfresh]

[boldfresh]

stali, do you want to 2 inf on the uk transport in z91 or did you mean to drop them off in morocco?

[boldfresh]

oh shoot!  i just realized you sank my two trannies in z97!!!  darn that american sub.  nice move.

[boldfresh]

@Boldfresh:

ugh how silly of me, all i had to do was place the italian destroyer in z97 and a ftr in southern italy - good to learn these little tricks since i have a very big game coming up in the XDAP tourney!

[Stalingradski]

Yes sir - I forgot to drop off the Canadians… Morocco is a nice destination, now that the Italians have been kicked out again  :-D

It was good of you to point it out. Because I screwed up, they can stay there, to teach me a lesson!

Mistakes are a strange part of the game. I make my fair share, and kick myself every time. Sometimes, online, it happens because you can’t see the whole board… sometimes, it’s too much caffeine, or in my yougner less responsible days too much Ketel One or Jamesons… and sometimes it’s too late at night and I have no business playing.

no worries, go ahead and drop them off, seriously.  it’s an obvious oversight.  don’t worry, i won’t ask for my subs back, that’s a little more complicated - a guy has to know when they are not placing units safely!  :-P
