Hola senior. Well, the dice in this round were nice in 93 for you. However I made 2 hits in Southern France and 9 convoy damage. So yes, taking out 1 ship in 93 would have been nice but nothing to make a big story about. However, in general it is working well for you so far because every single move went slightly above average for you (in average) which puts you in a comfortable position.

With 5-8% I meant in UK1 you did:

• Hit @2 in sz96 = ~33-36%
• Double hit @4 and @3 in sz97 = ~33-40%
• Killed my DD in sz 106 = 33%

The sum of all these events is in the range of top 5-8% for the axis or the bottom 5-8% for the Allies.
This accumulates with one plane less lost than average in sz110. France (despite the Southern France debacle) 1-2 survivors above average and a nice sz93.

So nothing to get desperate yet but I hope to get some compensation soon :)

Another little coin flip battle in your favor, accumulation of small advantages continues :)

Yeah, there are couple of players very eager to capture SF G1. I am not among of them:)

G2?

You can expect to wait for a long time. I have waited for 9 days now  :-o

Oh…he at least posted here 2,5 days ago. However let’s hope everything is alright.

Friendly bump, to get the thread on top! :-)

Whazup with you? Are you there?  Hope everything is alright!

Bump#2

A pity you just seem to be to disappeared. I am rather glad our game was at a very early stage.

This is the 3rd bump. I do not claim a win yet for the record, but I reserve the right to decide whether I would like to continue or to cancel the game.

Actually I will claim a win now as this surprisingly gives me the chance to participate in the play-offs. Nothing I be proud about but for technical reasons I had do.
