X-DAP FINAL - Dairy(Qyrn?) vs. TeamBoldDutch - Game 1

[boldfresh]

i will allow the noncom edit cow.

option 1 - and i would like to play it that noncom edits are always allowed no questions asked.

option 2 - however, if you want to stick to your no edit policy, then you must at least give me one edit in return to be used in your theater no questions asked.

also, i like how you did not ASK for the edit - you just asserted it.

so let me know how you want to play it, pick option 1 or 2 above.

[boldfresh]

i’m not going to go check anything - i would have no idea.  just let me know if that’s where you want it and whether we are going with option 1 or option 2.

Larry Harris reminds me of John Hammond…

[Cow]

I posted both because I have not decided where I want the bomber and I rather not recreate a whole turn later.

I am logging for the day. I have to find the saved game and I will let you know.

[boldfresh]

i am not familiar with the term “logging for the day”…  do you work in the forestry industry?  or do you mean you are logging off for the rest of the day?

[boldfresh]

and why on earth are you ripping from a larry harris game?  forget it, i don’t care.

just decide where you want the bomber and let me know.  if you want an edit, then you must address my question.  you cannot just assert an edit which totally contradicts your previous policy without being EXACTLY clear about how edits will be treated in the future.

[boldfresh]

so if i understand correctly- you have posted two different moves and the game is on hold until you find out exactly what larry harris did when he made this move… then you will let me know and the game can continue?  if it doesn’t involve you editing, then STILL please advise me as to what your edit policy will be before we continue.

[gamerman01]

Who copies someone else’s moves exactly in tournament play??

Was Larry Harris facing the same situation that you are?

[Cow]

I remember what happened, he left his bomber on UK and I was thinking maybe those two other spots would be wiser decisions.

I am going to leave the bomber on London, because that is exactly what Larry Harris would do.

[Cow]

I will not question Larry Harris and change the opener. That is like questioning Murphy for killing Germans, there will be none of that in this game.

[666]

I wish I could DVR this and then simply fast forward through all the B.S.

[gamerman01]

Where on the internet does Larry post games that he’s played, Cow?

[Cow]

When Sgt Basilone died on the beaches of Iwo Jima, he never questioned MacArthur, because he was too much hero. For only the traitors and cowards questioned MacArthur.

[Cow]

He plays by email and I got a copy of a game.

[Cow]

It is all battlemaps though.

[boldfresh]

i will allow the edit of the bomber to london.  please let me know how we will handle edits though because this violates the previous precedent of no noncombat edits after the post is made.  are you giving me one for the future or are we playing unlimited noncombat edits as long as no dice are rolled on the following turn yet?

[boldfresh]

tell you what cow - i guess we will proceed under the understanding that you are asking for a one time edit and that i am granting it with the understanding that i have a one time noncombat edit for our use (dutch or myself) whenever we wish, no questions asked.

I1 coming shortly.

[boldfresh]

i know you are not really concentrating until game 3 because you don’t have to win this one…  :wink:

[Omega1759]

Interesting start!

Very good G1, things could have gone terrible there. :wink:
