S02 - Gamerman01 (axis) vs. DutchmanD (allies +13)

    @gamerman01:

    It’s unfortunate for you that when you lose this game you can’t blame it on the dice after all the breaks you’ve already received in the critical first couple rounds.

    I can see you must have the same gene of myopia as Boldfresh.

    1. You took Egypt is the most lopsided of results. You had only a 47% chance of winning that battle, even less to take it, but you took it with two armor left and the bomber, a less than 10% result.  This is essentially a 40 or 50 IPC swing.  Not only did I lose the infantry I placed from the bid, but I lost a ftr, the Brit NO for several rounds while the Italians gained theirs for at least one extra round. This is about as big of a swing as you can have in Round 1, and all against the odds.  If the Allies end up losing a game after losing Egypt on G1 in such a ridiculous manner, then surely they can almost always trace the loss back to that point.  It was a ballsy move, and you get credit for attempting it, but don’t insult the forum by conveniently forgetting that it happened.

    2. You took z2 without a loss.

    3. You defended zone 2 in what was less than a 10% result.

    4. You defended Egypt from a 68% attack, costing me my bomber and another potential British NO.

    You are carrying on worse than Boldfresh did.  I haven’t mentioned the dice or the odds once this whole match, but you cannot help yourself. You whine when they go against you and forget when they go for you. Let’s go the rest of the match without hearing any more comment about the dice, or the odds, or whatever nonesense you have for the commentary.


  • gamer, normal people don’t consider “what is this shit?” a normal question that doesn’t carry an accusation…if you are going to make it own it, don’t be a coward.  And you won’t convince very many people of your even keel with that many exclamation points in a post.  You can’t throw the word “cheating” around like you did and then act all innocent about it…its the number one inciteful thing you can say on a gaming site and you said it, so own it.  Don’t be a dick and a coward all at the same time.

    Talk about same gene!  The other relative weighs in!

    Goo, actually I kind of appreciate your post.  You’re right, I threw out the word “cheating” and even though I didn’t directly call Dutch a cheater, I insinuated it.  I’m sorry.  At the time it did seem like he was trying to give himself an unfair advantage.  Is that what you mean by “owning” it?

    I’m not a dick, and I’m not a coward.  But you are a name-caller.

    OK, my man, a very reasonable request.

    I can go with no comments.  Thanks for proposing it.

    In response to your succinct summary of my luck:  You are exactly right.  Those are the lucky results I got - I had an unbelievable G1.  Since then, it’s been crap and you know it.

    It should be easy for me to stop talking dice, because I should be fully confident that you know when you’re lucky and you know when I’m lucky.  Doesn’t need to be said.  I am hedging against your excuses in the event that you lose.

    Whether I’m a bigger whiner than Bold is subjective and irrelevant, and you know it.  Some of the genes we share - we’re both geniuses, and we both like to talk when we game.  I’m not going to apologize for either.

    The only problem I have with tournaments is you can’t control who you play.  I’m sure you feel the same.  Complete radio silence is a good proposal, and I agree.  Hey, Bold, please help us out by not “stirring the pot” as you like to say.

    Have a fun rest of the game, Dutch.  I must say I’ve enjoyed playing so far - you’ve been very accurate and succinct in your moves.  Looking forward to your next move.

    Oh.  Thanks for calling the Egypt attack “ballsy”, but I can’t take credit for that.  I was looking at it as a 2 round hit and run, in which we each only had an 18% chance of losing everything.  I was planning to retreat the bomber or tank and bomber after two rounds.  I was only softening up for the Italians and got really lucky.  I have a history of great luck in amphibious hit and runs on Egypt and TrJ, and you were just the most recent victim.

    i can attest to gamer’s “hit and run” luck that ends up demolishing the entire stack.  you are both good players who tend to get lucky and i believe the luck has overall been pretty even in this game with gamer getting it early and DD getting it as of late.  shaping up to be a great game if someone doesn’t flip out…  :lol:

    You’re going to be smarting for quite some time from this latest loss, aren’t you?  Dutchman and I are trying to finish this game without comment, and I already specifically asked you not to comment.  Yet here you are.

    Your comments are not welcome here.

    Now you’re just being a pill.  Always using the sayings I come up with against me later.  How original.

    I’m going to annihilate you again in League 3 (where’s your move, anyway??), and I’ll probably beat Dutchman.  Just keep rooting for him since it makes you feel better.  Your pride needs him to go deep into the tournament.

    You don’t need to point out gameplay errors.  You know I will catch them immediately and alert Dutchman, because I pay attention to detail and I have integrity.
