well ghost it’s been fun… time to look back over this one and see where i went wrong this time.  we can keep playing for a bit unless you’re tired of crushing me.

[Ghostglider]

Whenever you are ready to surrender, I will accept it…

[boldfresh]

understood - i’m just saying i will play on if you enjoy it.

[boldfresh]

just saying, i have no illusions of having any chance here, and at this really fast move speed it’s kinda fun to see the weird map.

[Ghostglider]

No need to play on - Japan have all islands. Thank you for the game - I hope we meet in the play-off again this season!

[boldfresh]

thanks you too.  you’re a great player - i’m going to have to concentrate much harder next time!

[Ghostglider]

did you know that the map do not allow me to attack WUS from z101 with my 5 FTRs?
Maybe this is not the most common move!

[boldfresh]

haha, perhaps not.

[boldfresh]

now i recall the turning point, i think it was the disaster in the med?  if you see it otherwise, please feel free to tell me :-)
