XDAP2 R3 - Declaration of WEAK vs Team GARL (Allies +20)

is this game over?

Seems so. Garg seems not to be willing to invest 1-2h at any of his 15h work days :-/

let me see what’s up.

I can move if necessary.

@Karl7:

let me see what’s up.

I can move if necessary.

i think “necessary” set sail a long time ago karl…

seems like someone needs to kick this tournament in the butt to keep it moving and that person is not gonna be garg, or so it would appear.  perhaps garg should nominate someone to moderate/keep things moving.  I nominate JDOW - he’s good with things like this.

If Garg doesn’t move by Monday, I am authorized to move.

ok

@JDOW:

ok

1159pm on monday?

@Boldfresh:

@JDOW:

ok

1159pm on monday?

Don’t worry!  I am watching and counting!  Remember, Garg is on Pacific time like me!

:lol:

Did you mean monday the 10th?

Ok, I am on deck.

Let me looks at this shite!

The unholy duo of Bold and JDOW to officiate the remainder of the tourney??  What do you say JDOW?

Hey Garg,

thanks for the update. Hope we will see you back here soon and too bad we do not see the outcome of that game with the initial team.
I am indeed curious if you would have played Russia and UK the same way?

Would you have made a stand in Russia? If so, would you have made a full stand with ALL available UK air? Would you have slammed UK ground units + shore bombardment into Ukraine to weaken the attack at Russia?

Regarding moderation:

I need to refuse the offer to moderate the tournament, sorry gents.

The fact to share the responsibility with Bold almost changed my mind, sounded like fun. But frankly, I would not be happy to have any kind of burden besides the games I choose to play. Sorry about that.

But how about Karl/Bold? I guess you guys would make a good moderator team, too?

Cheers,
Tobias

The unholy due of Karl and Bold with advice from JDOW when solicited?  Sounds good to me.

That was Garg’s original thought…. he he he… but he thought differently…  :wink:

Nonetheless, the Allies are on the ropes here.  Let’s just see if they get lucky!  (Probably not).
