@Gamerman01:

And yes, just the fact that you’re .359 with Allies and .500 with Axis even though you play Allies a lot more, indicates that you are bidding too low.  Stick the other guy with the Allies once in a while.  Or are you like a friend of mine who just hates to lose any bidding war?

Ha, well, I used to think I was stronger as the Axis but then decided I liked playing the Allies better. Axis play has gotten so much better in the last while.  Really an order of magnitude better.

@Karl7:

Another (as we need anymore) example of 12 bid being too low.  US went all out against Japan, and even by round 7 was not able to decisively defeat it.Â

That’s my experience as well…

When I play the Allies, I have to invest heavily in the pacific, otherwise Japan is completely unstoppable. But it takes 5 full rounds of full investments of the US to at least have the same navy+airforce size as Japan.

Quite a long time for Germany to conquer Egypt…

Not only Egypt but also build up a fleet to stop any belated Allies relief effort for the USSR.

That’s why bids are going up? Sp take the Axis yourself at +12 or squeeze out way more from your opponent:)

Well truly devious would be the Japanese landing ground forces in the UK, but who does that these days :lol:

I’m going to claim a win in this one over Infrastructure. Don’t think there was much doubt about how it was going to end anyway, forgotten French DOW or no :)

I need to be both more aggressive and pressure Russia a lot more then I have done in this game. This allowed Russia to reinforce the Chinese and once the Chinese go rampant the Japanese are basically goners :'(.

Made some stupid mistakes and even tho the game is far from over. Odds are this will be a loss. So I might as well take it now before the end of the league. Besides I don’t have access to proper internet right now.

So here is an allied win at 18.  However, Soul had internet issues which can make it impossible to competently play the game.

But the allies will take any win they can!

Karl, you ought to be able to win against a player who’s 1-10 with a smaller bid than 18

How many games have you played in the last 2 years?  :lol:

I am a horrible player at the moment :'(. Still it was my call to give him the +18. And me conceding is secretly trying to cheer him up again :P.

I didn’t view it as such. Viewing my current standing is highly confronting.

FYI
@JuanSpain:

Hi Gamer, one question about games recorded in 2014 league and 15.

Are results posted up to 31st Oct included in 2014 league record and the ones posted on day 1 and later in 2015 league?

I have one game with no moves since a while (looks good for me anyway), but may report the no show in 2015 if the win can be recorded there.

In addition, I may post some probable defeats on day 31 instead of continuing them and punishing Tier on 2015.

Thank you Sir for your always valuable guidance.

Juan

First off, it is my pleasure to assist.

If you look at league rule #7, it is actually NOVEMBER 1 that is the last day of the league year.  So Saturday is the last day to submit game results to count for 2014 league.

You may legitimately choose whether to call a game by default on Saturday November 1 (2014 league year) or Sunday November 2 (2015 league year).  By the same token, you could choose to resign a game by Saturday November 1 to keep it from counting in 2015.  There is no rule against these decisions.

These are very good questions.  I trust you will not mind if I post your PM and my response on the league thread because others are probably wondering the same thing.

Happy gaming to you
